The Humble Daughter's Rules for Survival

This is a pure farming novel, focused entirely on the everyday affairs of an ordinary household. It is set in an alternate history modeled on the early and middle periods of the Ming dynasty.

If she wants to survive in the inner household, she should not assume that a transmigrated woman is automatically invincible. She must first obediently learn the survival skills of ancient times. After finally becoming familiar enough with ancient society and building up some “connections,” she went through considerable trouble to arrange a middling marriage. She had assumed that, as the daughter of a concubine in a third-rank official’s household, making it this far was already good enough and that she had not disgraced modern women.
