[Period Setting, Reborn, Military Officer, Satisfying Read]
Jiang Maimai came from a troubled family, but rode the wave of reform and opening up to become the richest person in the region. Then, at the height of her success, she died an untimely death.
When she opened her eyes again, she was eighteen, just before she was forced to take her cousin’s place as the bride of the paralyzed Liu Jianye.
This time, her cousin eagerly chose the paralyzed Liu Jianye, determined to reclaim the wealthy life she believed should have been hers. She even schemed to foist her “Chen Shimei of an ex-brother-in-law” onto Jiang Maimai!
What a joke. The paralyzed man who can’t control his bladder, the awful sister-in-law, the sharp-tongued parents-in-law: whoever wants to serve them can do it.
Everyone says Jiang Maimai used underhanded means to force Shen Yuzhi to marry her, and that their married life is unhappy.
Jiang Maimai: My educated-youth husband goes up the mountains and down the rivers, and serves me a different fish-and-meat feast every day. What’s unhappy about that?
Without her ex-husband’s family dragging her down, she can focus on building her career and amass a fortune even earlier than she did in her previous life.
But wasn’t her bargain husband supposed to be useless and run off sooner or later?
How did he end up in her bed, then transform into a senior military officer?
