A decisive heroine who always gets revenge × a seemingly untamable, laid-back hero
Marriage by substitution + ancient woman in the modern world
Ye Jialan was a merchant's daughter in the Great Yang Dynasty. She defeated her uncles and cousins, became head of the family, and turned it into an imperial merchant house.
Then she opened her eyes and found herself an orphan who'd married into a wealthy family as a substitute bride.
There are more than a dozen servants, but she can't get a single one to do what she says.
Her sister-in-law, who comes to the house every day, tumbles down the stairs and accuses Ye Jialan of pushing her.
Her husband hasn't been home in three months. When he finally returns, he tells her to behave herself and stop trying to attract his attention.
Ye Jialan rolls up her sleeves.
The servants won't listen? Replace them!
Her sister-in-law frames her? Dislocate her wrist!
And her husband? When he's not looking, slap him once to vent her anger.
She accidentally offends someone, and they want to investigate her identity?
That's a little troublesome. She'll find a way to send them away!
Two years later, her pockets are full, and she has more than enough to live a carefree life. She gets ready to leave the wealthy family.
Her husband, eyes red, says, “Are Jialan's hands cold? Slap me once, and I'll warm them for you.”
Note: The heroine is in control of the relationship from beginning to end. Fans who only care about the male lead, stay away.
