Daily Life of an Ancient Street Vendor

Sang Qing transmigrates into a male-oriented novel titled From the Imperial Examinations to the Chief Minister, where the male lead places first in all three stages of the imperial examinations and eventually rises to become prime minister.

In the early part of the story, the male lead has a foil. They come from the same village and are classmates, but the foil looks down on him in every way and ultimately gets thoroughly face-slapped by him.

That detestable foil is her own brother. The whole family pours everything they have into supporting his studies.

Her older sister becomes the concubine of a man in his fifties for a fifty-tael betrothal gift. Her ten-year-old younger brother goes to work as a farmhand and eventually dies of exhaustion. As for her, she sells herself as a maid, spending her entire monthly salary on her brother's education.

This is outrageous...

With her parents and older brother being no help, she sets out to find another way forward with her older sister and younger brother. She rolls up her sleeves and starts selling snacks from a street stall: ice jelly, roujiamo, and bowl cakes...

Step by step, they build their fortune.

Theme: Work hard and build a better life.
