[Straight-Talking Transmigrated Heroine vs. Reborn Hero Who Is Aristocratically Self-Effacing Yet Always Gets Face-Slapped]
Everyone said that sooner or later, the second branch of the Shen family would be brought to ruin by the girl they'd taken in.
They had their sunflower seeds and stools ready, just waiting for the show.
Who could have guessed?
Not only did the family survive, they thrived!
The eldest son became a renowned physician; the second became a great general; and the youngest was brilliant, a top student who became the top scholar at just fifteen...
As for Shen Nian, she was even more remarkable.
She was the legitimate daughter of a duke, yet had ended up in the countryside, where everyone looked down on her.
A powerful figure from the apocalypse transmigrated into her body.
She had superhuman strength, three types of special abilities, and luck so good it defied the heavens.
Her father was a duke who had earned the emperor's trust. The leader of the Jinlin Guards was a pitiful young man she'd once saved on a whim, and the old codger at her side was a legendary physician known throughout the land...

When word got out that Young Lord Xiao was leaving the capital, the whole circle of nobles went wild with joy, praying he would die out there.
But not only did he return safe and sound, he brought back a girl even more arrogant than himself.
Everyone laughed at Shen Nian for being a crude country girl.
The emperor sneered, "...You call someone who made an entire region prosperous crude?"
The young lord chuckled, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes, enough to chill anyone to the bone.
The next day, the people who had been gossiping behind their backs either had their faces ruined or their legs broken...
Shen Nian poked her head out to watch. "Tsk, I told you spreading rumors about me would bring bad luck, but nobody believed me. Do you believe it now?"
Young Lord Xiao, who had quietly taken credit for nothing, nodded with a gentle, harmless smile. "...I think they all believe it now."
If they didn't, he could make their luck even worse.
