[Pride and Prejudice] After Reincarnating as a Nobody

Louisa had thought it was just an ordinary transmigration.

But she never expected her neighbor to be a Bennet, or to become friends with the future heroine.

All she planned to do in this life was eat and drink, learn a few things, grow some crops, and enjoy a quiet country life.

But then, just as people began speculating that she might be illegitimate...

Her great-uncle on her mother's side took her by the hand and showed her the work of his life's labor: a canal.

Then he announced that he was handing his vast estate over to her.

Louisa: Well, are we starting the business-management side plot already?

As an adult, Miss Louisa chats and mingles like a social butterfly. On one side, there's the son of an industrialist she knows; on the other, a young duke. They're all helping her business take off.

A certain lawyer curled his lip. "Miss Louisa certainly has a lot of friends."

Louisa was puzzled. "Well, of course. Would you like to meet them?"

Mr. Bruce: ...

A straightforward, tomboyish heroine vs. a smiling, foxlike, scheming hero

The heroine can build steamships and steam trains.
