She Played the Lady of High Society for a Lifetime. Reborn, She's Done with It

In her previous life, her legitimate younger sister had coveted her engagement and stolen it. After successfully marrying the heir to Prince Cheng, she discovered that he had a beloved concubine. Consumed by jealousy, her sister used every trick in the book to kill the concubine. In the end, she was confined to the back courtyard of the prince’s residence, where she languished in poverty and died in despair!

Chen Yiying married a scholar with barely a roof over his head. To her surprise, over the next ten years he rose to the highest ranks of government, becoming the dynasty’s chief minister and earning the emperor’s praise and the people’s love. But once the poor scholar had made it, he didn’t abandon the wife who had stood by him through hardship. Instead, he loved her deeply and had children with her alone.

Chen Yiying became the envy of every woman in the capital. Many unmarried young women even wept and cried that if they were to marry, they wanted to marry Chief Minister Chu.

But was that really the truth?

The reborn younger sister would have to work out the answer for herself.

In this life, Chen Yiying was very pleased with her marriage into Prince Cheng’s household. Her mother-in-law was difficult to please, but generous and considerate toward her. Her father-in-law was stern, but rarely interfered in household affairs. Her husband was devoted to his career, and she had a sweet younger sister-in-law to keep her entertained. How could a peaceful life like this not be good?

But you there, what do you think you’re doing? This heir’s wife isn’t short of money and doesn’t need love. Stop hanging around me.
