The Rebirth of Jiangzhu

Lin Daiyu wept herself to death, only to awaken back in Yangzhou at the age of ten.

She had repaid the Divine Attendant Shen Ying's kindness with a lifetime of tears. In this life, her heart was clear and her purpose firm: save her father, restore the family fortunes, and never set foot in the Jia residence!

Armed with foreknowledge, she helped her father overcome a political crisis and took charge of the family business while still a child, rapidly amassing wealth. While everyone in the Jia family still dreamed of a “gold-and-jade match,” she had quietly become someone far beyond their reach.

And yet fate still drew closer. The emperor's special attention and the late empress's belongings sent from the palace all pointed to a mystery about her birth that she had never imagined.

When the Jia family mansion fell, Baoyu begged along the street and came to her carriage. Daiyu lowered the curtain and said, her voice calm and even, “Go.”

This time, she was no longer Jiangzhu, shedding tears to repay a debt. She was Lin Jiayu, the master of her own fate.
