Powdered Beauty at the Jade Terrace

[Reborn, Ruthless Woman Who Changes Her Fate x Cool, Older Marquis]

After becoming pregnant before marriage and suffering a miscarriage, Nian Huasu opens her eyes after falling into the water, only to nearly be burned to death.

In her previous life, the fire had disfigured her and turned her into a monster. A month later, her second younger sister, who was presented to the world as an adopted daughter, married in splendor and became the heir's wife, while Nian Huasu was carried off in a palanquin to become his lowly concubine.

She eventually died of hunger in a woodshed, her life a tragedy.

Facing the scorn and ridicule of everyone around her, she calmly says, "I won't become Xie Jing'an's concubine. In a month, someone will come to propose to me in grand style."

No one believes her. They think she's just boasting and wait for her to make a fool of herself and be handed a strip of white silk to hang herself with.

But a month later, the aloof Marquis of Guangling, whom everyone assumes will never marry, arrives at the Minister's residence with a lavish bridal procession to ask for the hand of the eldest daughter, pregnant before marriage, and make her his marchioness.

Meanwhile, Xie Jing'an, who remembers his previous life, goes mad and rushes up to her. "Huasu, how could you marry my uncle? You're mine!"

"Xie Jing'an, how dare you be so unfilial? I'm your aunt!"

She never imagined that marrying this man would keep raising her rank in the family, until even a prince would have to respectfully call her Imperial Aunt.
