In her previous life, Wen Yuanshu was the lady of the marquis's household. She managed its affairs and devoted herself to raising her adopted son. Under her care, the estate flourished, and her adopted son became a promising official with a bright future.
But when her birth family was destroyed, the marquis's household abandoned her in the mountains behind the estate to fend for herself. The son she had raised with her own hands strangled her with a rope! Her life's hard work had all become a joke. She had simply paved the way for someone else.
Reborn, she learned from her mistakes and took control of the family's finances. Her worthless husband wanted her to support their adopted son? She agreed with a smile, but only in exchange for the estate's deeds. Whether the boy became a success or a failure would depend on Wen Yuanshu's word alone.
Her cousin, who had borne an illegitimate child with her worthless husband, wanted to enter the household as his second wife? Wen Yuanshu agreed to that, too, then turned around and took possession of the deed to the mountain estate where she had been imprisoned for so long in her previous life. She renovated it from top to bottom and turned it into a hot spring resort that brought in a fortune every day!
Wen Yuanshu would spare no one who had hurt her in her previous life, young or old, man or woman!
The Marquis of Anyuan was accused of colluding with the enemy, and the capital was in an uproar.
On the eve of their execution, Wen Yuanshu went to see them off.
The people of the Marquis of Anyuan's household were then disheveled and fighting to survive, while Wen Yuanshu stood before them in splendid finery, accompanied by a man with a saber at his waist and a grim, imposing air.
"Wen Yuanshu, you'd better give this Commander a reasonable explanation."
"How did this Commander ever lose to a bunch of worthless fools like them?"
It's too inky!
