Step Aside, Let the Mistress of the Marquis's Household Enjoy Life

(Revenge after being reborn, with household intrigue early on and sweet romance later)

In her previous life, Jiang Qingyin, the legitimate daughter of the Duke's household, married the wrong man. She devoted herself heart and soul to managing the Marquis of Zhongyi's household as its mistress, but never won even a sliver of her husband's affection.

In their previous life, her husband fell in love with her at first sight and swore he would marry her. Yet on their wedding day, he was sent to the border, never to return for years.

Years later, she learned that he had brought back a mistress and five illegitimate children from the border. Jiang Qingyin quietly accepted them and diligently took care of them all.

Later, when upheaval struck the Marquis's clan and the family fell into decline, Jiang Qingyin shouldered the burden and led the household through its troubles, only to be murdered by a villain.

The mistress then reaped the rewards of a lifetime of Jiang Qingyin's hard work without lifting a finger.

Reborn into a new life, Jiang Qingyin vows not to repeat the same mistakes.

When her husband falls into trouble, she waits until he finally says, "Qingyin, you're all I have."

She smiles faintly and slowly takes out a divorce agreement.

At that moment, her husband's heart is shattered.
