They Tried to Steal My Inheritance? I Tore the Scum Apart and Became the Realm's First Marchioness

Xie Ling returned to the day before she was sold to a brothel. She knocked out the woman who was selling her with a stool, and her fate changed from that moment on. Her uncle’s family schemed to take her property, so she fought back. Xie Mingshu, the family’s pampered darling, mocked her with a sneer: “You’re nothing but an animal.” She smiled. “You’re the animal. Your whole family is full of animals! You’re a female beast. Go find a male beast and have a whole litter of little beasts.” Her cold-hearted grandmother called her impure and ill-omened, and tried to make her adopt her cousin as an heir. Instead, she picked two junior cousins from the clan who caught her eye. One eventually became a general, and the other became the head of a women’s academy. The Princess Consort of the Prince of Zhennan pressured her to break off her engagement and spread rumors everywhere that Xie Ling had been violated. Xie Ling turned around and made a grand, noisy show of delivering the marriage contract, leaving the Prince of Zhennan’s household branded as faithless, heartless hypocrites. Reborn once, she decided that anyone who made her unhappy would get the same treatment. She lived by one principle: if she wanted to curse someone, she cursed them; if she wanted to hit someone, she hit them. If they had a problem with that, they could fight her! After reclaiming her family’s property step by step, she took the official examinations and became a female official. She went on to become the first female marquis since the founding of the Great Yong dynasty.
