Honestly I would rather this novel not have a switched-at birth plot. The found “family member” is enough for this to keep going but I guess they need mc to have a strong background?

the marquis family being a 500 year old family is like an old tree, it's a great backer even if it there are much more higher status, they couldn't take them as an easy prey, contrary to if the mc and ml received new noble titles, they will be like a transferee student who no one wanted but needed to befriend because they are the principals relative

Feel like the switched at birth subplot doesn't really work with the rest of the story. Gu Jiao's incredibly edgy previous life as a secret agent/doctor, her using her medical skills to save a series of powerful people, her building a found family of people who AREN'T related to each other, a lot of that is over the top but it's not grating because the elements work well together. Meanwhile the switched at birth subplot clashes with the transmigrator and found family elements. Like the author keeps hyping up how amazing Gu Jiao's innate connection to Yao shi and Gu Yan is and how it's way better than their connection to Gu Jinyu because Gu Jiao is their REAL family member. Read more Read more Except Gu Jiao is a transmigrator so that doesn't really work? And her building up a family that ISN'T based on blood ties has been a major part of the story. Gu Yan and Yao shi seem sorta shallow in comparison. Show less

You said it perfectly

Yep, I agree wholeheartedly. It's awful seeing how the author keeps putting Gu Jiya down, highlighting how she doesn't feel like family at times, as if blood is the only thing that matters. What's the author trying to say here? That adopted children can never truly be family? Not to mention how the actual blood related daughter is already long dead and the current Gu Jiao is just an impostor. So blood is important, but the soul doesn't matter at all? It's hypocritical. The current Gu Jiao should have no more claim to being the Marquis' daughter than Gu Jiya does. At the very least, Gu Jiya has been their daughter from the start. Gu Jiao is just a ghost desecrating their real daughter's corpse.

@Diair it's normal for biological family not to feel any "special bond" with other people, no matter how close they are. It's like you eat cheap food at the market every day and even though you like the food and think it tastes good, you have the idea that 5 star restaurant food must be better. but then when you try 5 star restaurant food, you realize that market food is actually so much tastier that you no longer have the thought of differentiating food based on the place. So I disagree with your statement that say "blood ties" are more important. Didn't you read carefully? Gu Jiao once dreamed about the life of OG Gu Jiao. At first she was really accepted and loved by her biological family, but as time went by, her family seemed to show more that Gu Jinyu was their real daughter even though she is only an adopted child. while og gu Jiao is increasingly shunned and alienated. it was because of this that she was jealous of Gu Jinyu and then tried to harm her. She is indeed a stupid child and has bad morals. but it's not her fault. From the start she had the misfortune of being separated from her biological parents, her adoptive parents died, then treated like trash by her extended family and even thrown out later. a person who never received a proper education and always gets bad treatment, what do you expect from her? When she returns to her biological family, they should take full responsibility for looking after her, including giving her the education and love that she has not received so far. but just because she was stupid, her family shunned her and showed their favoritism towards gu Jinyu. whether her adoptive or biological family, she didn't get the love she should have as a child. So what do you mean by "blood ties" is more important? even at this moment Marquis gu had thoughts of disowning Gu Jiao and would only give her a decent life, because he thought more about Gu Jinyu's feeling. What do you expect from ancient people? For them, family relationships are very easy to break, the most important thing is whether the person is useful or not, loyal or not.
