In the capital, the Yong'an Marquis's household is famed among the nobility as a family of benevolence and righteousness.
Put kindly, they have good family values and are loyal and devoted. Put bluntly, the entire clan is a bunch of doormats, everyone worked like an ox.
Recently, they even had the classic drama of a "real and fake heiress."
Outsiders thought the fun was about to begin. But what happened?
The real heiress who had just been found had inherited the family's fine traditions, timid and spineless, obviously their own flesh and blood. The fake heiress raised by the family cried and fussed so much that everyone praised her as a perfect product of the marquis's household.
In this household full of spineless workhorses, everything changed when the new bride, Zhang Yunzhi, arrived.
…
Zhang Yunzhi was a top publicist at a major 24/7 tech company in the 21st century. She won countless projects through her skill, only to die suddenly at her desk after working overtime nonstop.
When she opened her eyes again, Zhang Yunzhi found herself in a fictional world as the bride brought in to bring good fortune to the heir of the Yong'an Marquis's household.
Good grief, what is this supposed to be?
She was on track for a promotion by the end of the year, heading down the bright road to a raise, a promotion, a general manager title, a CEO seat, a rich and handsome husband, and the pinnacle of life. Now, after dying suddenly, it was all gone? At least she hadn't become a nobody. She could just lie flat and enjoy retirement, taking it as compensation from Heaven for her untimely death. And she'd arrived just in time to watch the real-and-fake-heiress drama. What a treat!
What do you mean both heiresses are spineless, letting their greedy adoptive parents chase them to the door demanding compensation without daring to say a word? What do you mean the whole family is spineless, and the compensation they offered was the last of the family's savings? So Zhang Yunzhi is the unlucky one here, is she? This is no time to lie flat. The battle to protect her retirement fund officially begins!
