On the banks of the River of Forgetfulness, the Three-Life Stone returned from the mortal realm after undergoing tribulation, only to hear, to its horror, that its neighbor, the little Crimson Pearl Immortal Herb, had descended to the mortal world to repay her tears.
Remembering the fate of the Crimson Pearl from its previous life, the great stone, just one step away from earning a place among the immortals, abruptly stopped in its tracks, turned around, and plunged straight into the human world.
You Jia family folk, your stone-born great-aunt is here to fight you to the bitter end!
…
More than ten years later, Jia Min died in Yangzhou. In the midst of his grief, Lin Ruhai agreed to the Rongguo House's request to come and fetch the children.
This time, though, the ones traveling to the capital were not only Daiyu and Xiangyu, the brother and sister, but also Lin Lingyu, daughter of a family connected to the Lin clan through an adoption into the same lineage more than a decade earlier.
Grandmother Jia: They're nothing but impoverished relatives connected to the Lin family through a distant branch. They're not worth the trouble.
Madam Wang: Jia Min's daughter is annoying, and the Lin family's distant relations are even more annoying!
Jia Baoyu: Sister Lin is like an immortal. How could she have such a vulgar older sister?
Lin Lingyu smiled faintly and stepped aside, revealing the group of powerful relatives behind her. “Watch what you say, or the wind might catch your tongue!”
【Reader's Note】
1. Daiyu is cherished, with a satisfying story arc and plenty of original worldbuilding. Just enjoy the ride.
2. Baoyu and Daiyu are not a couple. The Jia and Xue families are treated unfavorably; the rest depends on the situation.
3. More to be added if anything comes to mind.
Theme: Be decent to others. Do too many bad things, and you'll get what's coming to you.
