[Both leads are reborn + space + face-slapping + fiercely protective + food and business + striking it rich]
When Qiao Nian opens her eyes, she has returned to the moment before she was made to marry into the general's household in place of her stepsister.
But to her surprise, her stepsister Qiao Mingzhu, who had caused her death, has also been reborn!
In her previous life, Qiao Nian married into the general's household in her stepsister's place, only for Qiao Mingzhu to stab her to death with her own hands.
Meanwhile, Qiao Mingzhu stole Qiao Nian's childhood betrothal and married a sickly scholar, who eventually died on the road while traveling to take the imperial exam.
This time, whoever wants that miserable marriage to the general's household can have it!
She awakens her spatial powers early and takes her young brother with her to split from the family and live on their own.
She stockpiles food, opens shops, and eventually becomes a merchant to the imperial court, amassing a fortune. Her life flourishes.
Watching Qiao Nian grow rich, the Qiao family regrets it bitterly and tries one after another to curry favor with her.
Qiao Nian gives them a cool glance. “I split from the family and got rich. What are you crying about?”
