[Reborn + Face-Slapping and Revenge on Scumbags + Feel-Good Story + Devoted Husband + Childhood Sweethearts + Mutual Healing]
Xie Qingwan is the legitimate daughter of the wealthiest family in Great Yan, with riches enough to rival a nation.
In her previous life, she married into the marquis’s household with a lavish bridal procession stretching ten miles, only to be forced to drink an infertility potion on her wedding night to prove her innocence.
Her husband brought into the household a clan prince whose place had been taken by an illegitimate son, while her mother-in-law, blaming her for having no children, forced her to adopt.
Because she was unable to bear children, she was deemed unworthy of sharing her husband’s bed. But being left to endure a loveless marriage wasn’t enough: she was also forced to raise her husband’s illegitimate son and a bastard child, drained of tens of millions in dowry, and eventually strangled by the children she had raised. Her body was dumped in a mass grave.
As she lay dying, her husband held his cinnabar-marked beloved in one arm and his white-moonlight in the other, smiling with smug satisfaction.
“How could a lowly merchant’s daughter ever be fit to be the mistress of the marquis’s household?”
“You were nothing but a stepping stone for my household to climb to the heights of power!”
Reborn on the day she was to become their stepping stone, she immediately slapped the ungrateful brat across the face several times. “You want to climb over her to get ahead? I’ll chop you to pieces first!”
They want to drain her dry? No. She absolutely won’t let them!
If they make her suffer, she’ll send every last one of them to hell!
They want her dead? Then she’ll have his entire family executed!
Later:
The fallen marquis’s household kneels before Xie Qingwan, begging her to share her husband’s bed and bear him children.
Xie Qingwan gives a mocking laugh and looks at the possessive, ascetic regent.
The regent pulls Xie Qingwan into his arms, strokes her belly, and proudly curls his lips. “Qingwan has already shared my bed and is carrying my child. She is also the honored mistress of my princely household.”
The members of the marquis’s household turn ashen, their hearts sinking into despair...
Ugly, messy
Very nice to listen to
Full firepower, cool.
