Synopsis

(Pure historical romance tragedy + childhood sweethearts + the male lead chases his wife to the crematorium + the second male lead takes her place + the heroine is doted on by the second male lead later on)

Yun Rao was a beautiful young woman, while Yin Hongjin was as handsome as a gentleman from a painting. Childhood sweethearts, they were the young married couple everyone in the capital envied.

But after several years of marriage, Yun Rao still had not conceived. Her in-laws began to look down on her and constantly made things difficult for her.

Even her husband, who had always doted on her, secretly became involved with another woman behind her back five years later. When the woman became pregnant, he brought her home as his secondary wife.

Yun Rao could not accept her husband's betrayal, but bound by the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues and the Four Books for Women, she had no choice but to accept reality.

After all, she was the one whose belly had failed her. She could not provide her husband's family with an heir, and that was her fault. She thought that once the secondary wife entered the household and gave her husband a child or two, her own bit of heartache would be nothing.

But she never expected that after the secondary wife arrived, she would become the target of everyone in the household.

Her husband took the other woman's side at every turn, accusing Yun Rao of jealousy and a lack of propriety.

Her mother-in-law constantly oppressed her, joining forces with the secondary wife to drug her and ruin her reputation.

Yun Rao was tired. She cast aside the so-called rules of propriety and asked to be divorced, even if people would curse her for it.

But after Yun Rao asked to leave, Yin Hongjin panicked completely. He fell to his knees before her and begged, “Yun Rao, whether you are still pure or not, I won't look down on you. Please come home with me and be my wife!”

Yun Rao ignored him, turned, and nestled against the sturdy frame of a rugged man. She gently touched her belly. “Yin Hongjin, I'm pregnant!”

At her words, Yin Hongjin sank to the ground.

I've read quite a lot of angsty stories before, and I'm usually a bit sentimental. I love listening to sad songs and hearing sad stories, too. I've already read "Bone-Deep Crisis", "He Said Our Love Came Too Late", and "May You Shine as Bright as the Stars"... I'd prefer something with lots of chapters, since I'm a night owl.

The writing is quite objective; women in ancient times couldn't just divorce so easily. The beginning was depressing, and I felt sorry for Yun Rao's resentment. Later, her complete break with the Yin family and her realization of her true self, allowing her to live for herself, made me understand her true nature.

This is a very good article, much better than some nonsensical stories about time travel involving one or two families. At least it's relatable and makes you want to keep reading.

The characters are vividly and engagingly portrayed. The initial plot involving the female lead marrying a second wife and the second male lead is incredibly captivating. Hopefully, the story will unfold more tightly later on, and the second male lead will suffer more after the male lead's introduction.

Dear readers, please give this a good review if you like it. Thank you so much! For those who prefer strong female protagonists, you might want to check out other authors' works. The female lead in this story is a bit weak in the early stages, too constrained by rules and etiquette. If you like this, please give it a five-star review! Thank you!

It's truly heart-wrenching. ❤️ Following the plot, you go from tense to relaxed and then tense again. The twists and turns don't even begin to describe the heroine's hardships. But watching her grow step by step through the mud feels very realistic!
