Synopsis

Jiang Lingzhao never imagined she would transmigrate. But luck was not on her side: she didn't become a pampered young lady from a wealthy family, nor a delicate girl from a poor but respectable household. Instead, she became the daughter of a peddler in town who favored sons over daughters and abused his wife and daughters. And there was something terribly wrong with her body! The moment she entered the little girl's body, she discovered livor mortis already spreading across her skin. Good grief, had she become a zombie?

“Ten coins will buy you one more day of life.” A heavenly voice spoke in her ear.

From then on, Jiang Lingzhao began her life in ancient times as a wage slave, spending money to buy herself more days alive.

The heroine is Jiang Lingzhao. The story is set in an alternate history, and its tone leans toward dark realism. Only the storylines surrounding Jia Baoyu and the other girls in the Jia household offer some comfort.

I won't vilify anyone or whitewash anyone, and I won't lavish praise on anyone either. I interpret the many souls of Dream of the Red Chamber through my own limited understanding.

P.S. This story doesn't give the heroine an overpowered golden finger, and it won't change the Jia family's fate. A maid who can barely manage to stay alive isn't powerful enough to save everyone, so the Twelve Beauties' fates will remain as they are in the original. At most, the heroine can save maids whose fates would have been even more tragic.

Haha, I have wanted to read this kind of useless article for a long time. It has nothing to do with it. Why put shackles on myself?

In ancient times, when silver was actually exchanged for copper coins, the quantity was even greater than the original exchange rate, because copper coins were common and silver was scarce. Therefore, the protagonist's loss is not this amount, but will increase upwards.

Forget it, I hope I don't embarrass myself anymore. I can't do it in the middle of the night. Is it true that so few people have read this book? Chapter ten and no one has anything to say? (Cry)

The story of a bag of compressed biscuits feeding eight strong men for two days comes from a true incident in my high school days. I only had a vacation once every two weeks in high school, so if I wasn't careful about my living expenses, I might spend them faster. And the chicken sausage is really delicious, but the way the boss makes it is really disgusting. If the sales are good, the price will be increased by 50 cents a semester. It started out as one yuan, then one and a half yuan, two yuan and two yuan, and when it became three yuan, someone went to the principal to complain and the price was only two and a half yuan. It was disgusting. I also bought military compressed biscuits for two yuan a bag. They were not delicious. I took a bite and threw them away.

I have written a follow-up outline and currently plan to give the heroine the following male lead options: A. Liu Xianglian B. Feng Ziying C. Original male protagonist Don't worry, their appearance is still very late. The heroine has no emotional line for the time being, and Lingzhao cannot stay in Jia's house forever. The second year after the completion of the Grand View Garden, she left for a new map after Baochai's birthday.
