One Rotten Person [Reborn]

Yue Mufei was reborn, returning to twenty-five years ago, when she was ten.

The filthy little courtyard, the old-fashioned clothes, her father's dark skin, her mother's broad, heavyset figure: everything was just as she remembered, except for herself.

She had become he, transformed from a girl into the boy she had always dreamed of being.

[Yue Mufei] became [Yue Mufei].

This change might be a good thing, since as a boy, Yue Mufei no longer had to wear hand-me-downs from her four older female cousins.

Of course, it was more likely to be a bad thing, because Yue Mufei had five older male cousins.

For a thoroughly messed-up person, the chance to be reborn is precious. Yue Mufei wants to make the most of this second chance and do something with it. Maybe persuade her father to get a welding certificate, or persuade her mother to stop spending all her time at home. Maybe she can become a little more lively, a little more open-minded, a little more... adapted to society.

She wants to become a not-so-terrible mess of a person.
