The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family

Blue Bull
Pei Qin, upon transmigration, was instantaneously drenched in a basin of misery. The Scholar father was murdered on his way to the exams, and eldest uncle Jian Shen had two households. There was a son from the second wife, but neither grandparents nor villagers liked him, and he was also a thorn in the side of eldest aunt. Valuing sons over daughters, they wanted to sell her to buy land. Malnourished and poorly clad, her mother and siblings toiled like beasts of burden. Before she could strive for a better life, that already deceased Scholar father came back to life. He'd married a rich man's daughter? Sired two sons? Life was so hard, yet it drove his wife to her death. Pei Qin looked at her emaciated younger siblings, her hands trembling: To the mountains!! ———————— Lived in caves, built a hut, ate wild vegetables, gathered wild fruits. In poverty-stricken days, Pei Qin led her siblings to quietly amass wealth and silently prosper. Just as they were about to thrive, another wave of misfortune was thrown their way! Pei Qin with hands on hips: If you want to play the scoundrel, I'll make sure you're reduced to nothing! ********************

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
