A Gem Born of Heaven

After a disastrous blind date, she got drunk and fell into a raging river. When she woke up, she found she'd become a lowly maid in a wealthy household in ancient times! Before she could even figure out what was going on, she was being told to marry in her mistress's place. What? Great, great! Her dream of getting married had come true! Huh? Her husband-to-be was a talented scholar, but he was poor, sick, and covered in sores, with not a patch of healthy skin? You've got to be kidding… No matter. She was an expert at natural DIY beauty treatments, with folk remedies, secret recipes, and herbal concoctions for every need. How hard could it be to cure her husband's terrible illness? She could even open a beauty salon, bringing in money while helping people look younger. And with a grand hotel and clothing shops to complete the money-making empire, her husband could come up with plans, and together they could overcome anything. See how a female teacher, after countless hardships, becomes an enterprising woman in ancient times, helps her dear husband rise to greatness, and builds a successful business of her own. Here's Rao Rao's completed novel, The Female Assassin. Once again, I promise I won't leave any plot holes, so jump right in without worry!
