Shen Zhitang lived in the Hou Mansion for ten years.
For ten years, everyone said that she had a good life. The Shen family was in decline and Tingxue Zhai was sealed off. It was a great blessing that she, an orphan, could still stay in the Marquis Mansion with the help of a marriage contract.
It wasn't until the old lady's birthday party that the prince pushed the divorce document in front of her in public. The whole hall of guests was waiting to see her cry, see her beg, and see her leave in embarrassment. Shen Zhitang only took out an old account book. She has used the Shen family's incense and owed the Shen family money in the past ten years. She remembers every payment. "The marriage can be cancelled, but the debt cannot be ignored." After getting back the 760 taels of silver notes, she left the Hou Mansion overnight and returned to Tingxue Zhai, which had been abandoned for ten years.
Others laughed at her, saying that she was an orphan whose engagement was annulled, and how could she make a living by guarding a shabby shop. She wiped off the old plaque and reopened the door. The first scent is called "Never Look Back".
Later, noble ladies in the capital lined up to buy her incense, and Dali Temple asked her to identify the incense and investigate the case. People who once looked down on her came to the door one by one to ask for her help. And the prince of the Hou family who broke off the engagement with his own hands finally stood in front of her with red eyes and asked her if she could look back.
Shen Zhitang just pushed a box of non-turning incense over. "I sell incense, not straw."
What she wanted was never to marry into a high family. She wants Gao Men to line up to buy her incense.
