On the eve of her wedding, modern office worker Ge Mingyue caught her fiancé and her best friend fooling around in the marital home. She beat the scumbag and his shameless lover, threw them out, then tried to drown her sorrows in alcohol. Unfortunately, she drank counterfeit liquor and her soul transmigrated into the body of an unloved young lady from a marquis’s household in ancient times.
Since they shared the same name, Ge Mingyue, perhaps the two women had some connection. After transmigrating, she acquired all the original owner’s memories.
The original owner had been sent to a country estate at the age of three. Her stepmother had secretly instructed the estate’s matrons to spoil and abuse her.
To escape the lecherous estate manager, the original owner fled into the mountains, fell off a cliff, and drowned in a pool. Fortunately, Ge Mingyue could swim. Otherwise, she would have died again right after transmigrating.
To find something to eat, she felt around at the bottom of the pool and found several giant freshwater mussels. To her surprise, one contained a pearl as big as a pigeon’s egg. In her excitement, she accidentally cut her hand on the shell, which unexpectedly awakened a small pocket world.
On her way back, she happened to rescue a masked man who had been gravely wounded.
After that, she dealt with the cruel servants, won the household staff over, and cultivated new crops. She was enjoying a lovely, leisurely life in the countryside when her stepmother schemed to bring her back to the capital, intending to ruin her reputation and make her a stepping stone for Ge Mingzhu.
When she went to demand her dowry from her scumbag father, she accidentally overheard her stepmother telling him about her mother’s death. They sounded extremely wary of the subject, so Ge Mingyue suspected there was more to her mother’s death than met the eye. Without a second thought, she set a trap for her father, outmaneuvered her stepmother, took down her stepsister, and reclaimed her dowry. Once everything was settled, Prince Xiao set his sights on her. Who would have thought that she would end up becoming the apple of his eye?
It's quite good, simple and clear, not complicated, and concise. I really love the female lead's personality, and although the male lead is cunning, he's unwaveringly loyal to her. It's very well written, thumbs up! Keep up the good work, author!
