Jiang Yueli was trapped in the Marquis's household, spending her life mourning her late husband. Only as she lay dying did she uncover the cruel truth: her husband, who died young, had never truly loved her. For years, he had secretly met with her half-sister, and the two of them had even had a son and a daughter.
As the rightful mistress of the Marquis's household, she had been nothing but a pawn, clearing the way for the pair to rise to power. She spent her whole life and ended up with nothing.
Reborn in a single moment, she returns to a time before her tragedy began.
The position of mistress of the Marquis's household? Whoever wants it can have it!
She will no longer cling to that sham of a marriage. Her half-sister fakes her death? I'll hold her a funeral myself. From now on, she can only live like a rat in the gutter, stripped of her identity.
A concubine wants to take me down? She's just a concubine. I'll slap her and take the household accounts back to my mother.
My father tries to smooth things over and make me apologize? Perfect. The Marquis's wedding sedan is here, so that wife-destroying fool who dotes on his concubine can marry into that household himself.
That unfaithful scoundrel comes asking for my hand again? What a nuisance. I'll have him beaten away.
From then on, I leave the inner chambers behind to build a business and make my own way, with no interest in marriage.
Who could have imagined that I would accidentally catch the eye of the powerful heir of the Xie family?
Everyone says Jiang Yueli is decisive and ruthless, yet the heir steps in front of her in public and coolly takes her side: "My wife is gentle and delicate. Please do not make things difficult for her."
Everyone in the hall looks at the bold, decisive Jiang Yueli: ...
Is this heroine quite messy? Doesn't he look like a decent person? Is the writing messy or the characters messy? Messy
