The Concubine-Born Daughter Shocks the World: The Mistress of the Household Is Not to Be Trifled With

Su Qingyuan swallowed her last breath in the icy lake.

When she opened her eyes again, the soul of a top pharmacology PhD from the twenty-first century had awakened in the body of a concubine-born daughter.

"A wretch born of a lowly maid thinks she deserves bird's nest soup?" Nanny Li kicked over her bowl of medicine.

Su Qingyuan seized the other woman's pressure point, her gaze cold as ice. "Get down on your knees and lick these dregs clean."

Her stepmother offered her a jade bracelet with feigned concern. "Yuan'er is frail. Wear this to build up your health."

That night, the family treasury was robbed. Her stepmother personally led a search and "discovered" the stolen goods.

Her father shouted, "Bring out the family punishment! Beat her!"

Before the first blow fell, Su Qingyuan gave a soft laugh. "Father, why not smell the medicine inside the bracelet?"

"Take a guess: what wonderful thing has your wife been putting in your tea every day?"
