I Married My Scumbag Husband’s Uncle, and Now His Whole Household Begs for My Forgiveness

Her mother and mother-in-law were lovers. Her mother-in-law said, “The eldest son wants a title. We can drug Xi Shu and make her sleep with his uncle. Once his uncle is disgraced, the title will go to the eldest son.” Her mother: “I support that!” Her mother-in-law said, “The Gao family wants twenty thousand taels of silver as a bride price. Why not use Xi Shu’s dowry to help the eldest son take a second wife?” Her mother: “I support that!” Her mother-in-law said, “The eldest son needs money for his career, and the Marquis’s estate doesn’t have enough!” So her mother had Xi Shu’s father killed and moved all of the Li family’s vast fortune into the Gu household. Her mother loved her lover’s son so blindly that she refused to acknowledge any of her own family, calling her biological daughter, Li Xi Shu, nothing but a filthy thing. Li Xi Shu was reborn just as her mother-in-law drugged her and her mother blocked the door, keeping her from calling for help. Fine, Liu Shi, Cui Shi, Gu Yunheng. You want those horns so badly? Li Xi Shu would gladly put them on you. “Seventh Uncle, open the door. It’s your nephew’s wife.” But some people, once they’ve tasted something, can’t get enough. She’d only knocked once, yet he refused to let her leave. “You slept with me and are carrying my child. You’re obviously my wife.” Li Xi Shu raised a hand to refuse. No way. Not happening. She had a career to build. She wanted to be the marquis’s mother, not a bride!
