My Whole Family's Personas Have Collapsed

Gu Xin falls ill, and when she recovers, she discovers that her whole family has changed.

Her father, a compulsive gambler who nearly sold his wife and daughters, and an alcoholic who used to beat people, says he will never gamble again. He plans to pick up his books, take the imperial exams, and give the three women in his family a happy life.

Her mother, quick and capable but only ever fierce toward her own family, can no longer even light a fire. She now dares to take a hatchet and confront the debt collectors.

Her sister, an excellent embroiderer who was cold to everyone and never cooked, has put down her needle. She smiles more often and has taken over all the cooking.

Gu Xin thinks she must be dreaming. Besides her parents' and sister's changes, after she saves a fish and releases it, anyone who insults her takes a tumble, anyone plotting against her meets with bad luck, and whenever she wants to eat something, living creatures come right to her door and bash their heads against it. Even things that aren't alive somehow find their way to her by sheer coincidence.

How wonderful is all this!

Of course, it would be even better if the young master of the Zhou family in town would stop acting crazy.

The young master of the Zhou family says her parents will sell her and her sister will hurt her in the future. He wants to take her far away and escape the den of evil.

Gu Dad: Where did this little brat come from? I'm the mighty Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, just a thousand short of the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old. Would I sell my precious youngest daughter?

Gu Mom: Get lost, you little punk! I'm a powerful woman with a vast business empire. I finally have a daughter. Do you think I'd give her up?

Gu Sister: Trashy male lead, don't think I don't know how awful you are in the book or how you'll hurt my little Xin. Pah!

Young Master Zhou: w()w, why isn't this like my last life? But either way, I won't let Xin slip away from me in this life.

Gu Xin: Did you ask what I think?
