During a famine, the Shen family's eldest sister-in-law traded the last flatbread they had for a scrawny little girl. Everyone thought the family had gone mad and was doomed.
Who could have guessed that the day after they adopted Haiyue, fish would start raining from the sky? Crabs crawled right onto the beachgoers' hands, while clams and razor clams poked out their breathing holes, just waiting to be dug up.
The lives of the seven members of the Shen family seemed to get a cheat code. They went from barely having enough to eat to becoming a wealthy family with all kinds of fish and seafood at their fingertips.
Big Brother: I'll always protect my little sister!
Second Brother: I'll learn martial arts to protect my little sister!
Third Brother: I'll make money for my little sister to spend!
Fourth Brother: My little sister can have all my food!
Later, the eldest brother became the empire's top chancellor, the second brother its youngest general, the third the richest imperial merchant, and the fourth the sole inheritor of the Divine Healer Valley!
Little Haiyue went from being a village girl to the treasured little sister of every powerful figure in the capital!
Haiyue: "The young lady has arrived! Everyone, get out of the way!"
It's pretty cool, but the follow-up is a bit sloppy.
