After falling into the water one day, Wei Qingyan, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Wei in the Great Zhou dynasty, transmigrated into the body of Xu Muhan’s wife, who shared her name in twenty-first-century Jing City. The modern Wei Qingyan was a student who had just graduated from an agricultural university. On her way to a job interview, she saved an elderly man suffering from sudden cardiac arrest, and ended up becoming a member of the Xu family by marriage. Her in-laws looked down on her background and made life difficult for her in every way, even dumping their rebellious younger children in her care. Her husband had married her only because it was his grandmother’s dying wish. She endured her husband’s resentment, her brother-in-law and sister-in-law’s harassment, the servants’ mockery, her mother-in-law’s abuse, and her husband’s mistress’s provocations. Her father was lazy and greedy, her mother hardworking but timid, and Wei Qingyan, who took after her mother, simply bore it all in silence. But after her mother-in-law beat her unconscious with a whip yet again, the Wei Qingyan from a thousand years ago took over and gave everyone around her a brutal reckoning. Her hot-tempered brother-in-law was a sanda champion? Fine, she would make sure he learned what it felt like to get beaten up. Her sister-in-law was a rough-mannered troublemaker who had dropped out early and fallen in with the wrong crowd? Then Wei Qingyan would teach her how to be a proper young lady. The youngest brother-in-law had been born to his father’s mistress and rejected by the Xu family, and his own mother had tormented him until he became a troubled child. Thanks to Wei Qingyan’s tireless efforts, the whole Xu family eventually lived in harmony. In the end, Wei Qingyan returned to her own world.
