The General Was Taken in by His Wicked Father-in-Law, and Now He Just Wants to Lie Flat

A heads-up: No one in this family is quite normal. They're all self-serving, but the family stands united against outsiders. If you don't like that, please don't flame the story. The male lead doesn't do much; he's just a tool character! Mei Hao transmigrated as Mei Daniang. Her father was a bully, her mother was a few bricks short of a load, and her younger brother had been raised badly by their father. At least the family loved one another. Oh, and there was also an older brother who was often overlooked. As soon as she arrived, her mother brought home a man for her, settling her marriage for good. Her life wasn't perfect, but it was complete. Mei Daniang wanted to lie flat, but her husband kept trying to run away. Fine, let him go. Men were a dime a dozen.

But instead of clearing their names, they only got more notorious. How did that happen...? The great general, who was always trying to escape, watched the whole thing unfold, his jaw dropping so far it never closed again.
