The Real Heiress Takes the House in Hand

Xie Wangsi, eldest daughter of a prestigious family, and a born workaholic.

She was born in an age when noble families flourished. She drank jade spring water, wore Qizhou brocade, and played the Secluded Orchid zither.

Growing up, everyone praised her as the model of a noble young lady.

Then one day, she woke up to find herself in a strange world.

Here, she was a pitiful girl who had grown up away from home before being found and brought back by a wealthy family. Out of step with the glittering world, she was cautious and unable to fit in, and was looked down on, pushed aside, and dismissed as "hopelessly uncouth."

Xie Wangsi, accused of being hopelessly uncouth: Are you serious? Look at me and say that again.

The wealthy families of C City noticed that the young lady the Xie family had just brought home had suddenly become inscrutable.

At an exhibition of calligraphy and paintings, everyone criticized her for being uneducated. Then she pointed out a fake among the exhibits with a single glance.

At a concert of ancient music, she casually plucked a few strings, and a long-lost masterpiece from a thousand years ago came back to life?

Everyone thought she had just gotten lucky, but before long, a crowd of elderly men and women were dragging her off to become sworn siblings with them???

After Miss Xie had been home for a while, Second Young Master Xie's friends, curious as ever, came to ask him: How's your hillbilly sister doing lately?

Second Young Master Xie put on a solemn face and declared, "My sister says we must respect our elders! If I hear you gossip about her again, I'll break your legs!"

His friends: ???

Taking another look at his outfit, his friends were left completely dumbfounded.

Come on, man. Weren't we supposed to ride our noisy motorcycles and wear chains, the coolest guys around?

Why are you dressed like a proper gentleman in a silk shirt, black slacks, and a little trench coat?

Young Master Xie: I'm dressed so handsomely. My sister is definitely going to love it!

Then they saw the eldest Xie brother, whom they hadn't seen in ages. He used to wear a neat three-piece suit every day, but now he was dressed in a moon-white, silver-patterned traditional jacket, with Buddhist prayer beads in his hand?

Good grief, is C City about to start a trend for Buddhist gentlemen from the capital? Is it still in time to order prayer beads?

Eldest Xie Brother: You're out of date, kid. Big Sis will definitely like this outfit of mine better.

Mr. Gu, formerly C City's most sought-after marriage prospect and now honorably out of the running, has been quietly carrying a new outfit as he tiptoes up to Miss Wangsi's room and knocks. I don't have the family ties that let your brothers be close to you, so all I can do is have some new clothes made and wear them, to ease Miss Wangsi's burden of studying a little.
