The Remarkable Eldest Sister: Breaking Off the Engagement, Supporting the Family, and Making a Fortune

Shen Ruyun opens her eyes and finds herself in the body of an older farm girl who threw herself into a river after her engagement was broken off. Her younger siblings think she’s too old, complain that she never bathes, and resent how she keeps taking money from the family to spend on men. She has a face covered in red blotches but a weakness for handsome men, and every time she sees one, she’s willing to empty the family coffers to win him over. So her family all wish she would just get married and leave. Once a daughter is married, she’s like water poured out: better to have nothing to do with her ever again. Just as everyone finally breathes a sigh of relief, the bride who was carried halfway to the wedding suddenly gets brought back home. They say she jumped into the river and is barely alive. Some think: If she’s dead, so be it. Some think: Don’t treat her, just let her die. Some think: The family has no money. Her parents think: We struggled so hard to raise our child. How can we let her die? We’ll borrow money if we have to, but we have to save her. After receiving the memories of this body, Shen Ruyun, heir to a divine physician’s legacy, rolls up her sleeves and starts selling cosmetic treatments. I have spots on my face? Easy. I’ll cure them in two days. Your legs don’t work? Easy. A few days of acupuncture and you’ll be fine. She’s been paralyzed by a stroke for years? Easy. A few herbs and she’ll be full of life again. Besides her medical specialties, Shen Ruyun is also skilled at manipulating people. She manipulates her brother and sister-in-law until they only listen to her. Anyone who dares cause her trouble gets thrown out! As her life gets better and better, the handsome man who broke off their engagement gets jealous. Then more and more handsome men come calling. One by one, they surround her, demanding that she take responsibility for them. Shen Ruyun raises a fist as big as a sandbag. “Keep blocking my door if you want to die!” Anyone who dares get in the way of her earning money is asking for trouble!
