(I will definitely write this!!!)
Zhen Yinglan wakes up to find that she has transmigrated into Dream of the Red Chamber as Zhen Yinglian's twin older sister, Zhen Yinglan.
She arrives at the age of three. Jia Yucun is still a penniless scholar lodging at Hulu Temple, her younger sister hasn't been kidnapped, her parents are alive, and the family has a modest fortune. There's still some time before the fire at Hulu Temple.
With the story in hand, what does she have to fear?
She scares off Jia Yucun, that ungrateful wretch, persuades her parents to take their wealth to the countryside and avoid the fire, sends her younger sister to a private school, builds up considerable capital through business, and finds a way to study under a great scholar.
The scholar is hired by Lin Ruhai as a tutor, and she naturally becomes Lin Daiyu's senior schoolmate.
When the Empress Dowager contracts a terrible illness, Yinglan uses modern knowledge to save her and takes the opportunity to suggest establishing a women's official corps.
A few years later, at the capital's imperial examinations, everyone is talking about it: the Dayong dynasty has produced a female top scorer and a female third-place laureate.
Twenty years later, someone asks Lin Daiyu, now a female chancellor:
"May I ask, Chancellor Lin, as a woman who has risen to the position of chancellor, do you have any heartfelt words for the women who come after you?"
Lin smiles faintly. "Nothing much, just the Three Obediences and Four Virtues."
Everyone is puzzled, so they go to ask Zhen Yinglan, now an academician at the Hanlin Academy.
"Academician Zhen, what did Chancellor Lin mean by the Three Obediences and Four Virtues?"
Zhen Yinglan smiles faintly. "Serve in government, practice law, and do business. Gain power, influence, benefits, and wealth."
The women understand at once, and are about to ask more when they see that Academician Zhen has locked up her office.
"Sorry, I have to get home for dinner on time, or my wife will be upset."
As dusk falls, Academician Zhen returns home, where the table is laden with food.
The Chancellor Lin who spends her days shaping the world and deciding its affairs with a single word smiles as she comes to meet her and personally helps her out of her coat.
"Alan, are you hungry? I made your favorite sweet and sour ribs today. Would you like me to serve you some?"
