Writing Novels to Support My Family in the Northern Song Dynasty

After transmigrating into the household of a poor family in the Northern Song Dynasty, Yang Man Niang found herself in Bianjing, the Song Empire's capital, a city of splendor captured in Along the River During the Qingming Festival. But the original owner was just a young girl, renting a dilapidated, supposedly haunted house by Nanxun Gate with her younger brother and sister. They had nothing to their name. In winter, the wind cut like a knife, and charcoal was too expensive. The three siblings could only squeeze together on a broken bed. Their meals were either watery rice with frozen cabbage or roasted taro, and even then, they never got enough to eat. Looking at her thin, stick-like arms, Yang Man Niang couldn't help deciding to return to her old trade and write novels to support the family. To make sure they had enough to eat, her first book had to make a splash. So why not write a CEO romance? "You little vixen, you drive me crazy!" The people of Bianjing, who prided themselves on being well-informed, were left speechless when they first saw the CEO's catchphrases.
