She just came to the capital to buy medicine. Three hundred taels of snow ginseng saved Aunt Lan's life.
Unexpectedly, by mistake, Mrs. Hou Mansion insisted on asking her to be the widow of her dead son. Wearing plain clothes and white flowers, people knelt in the mourning hall, but the dead came to life. Mrs. Houfu was overjoyed and said, "This is your unmarried wife." From then on, she was riding a tiger and was unable to get off.
What's worse is that Xie Zheng's brother-in-law, the third master of the Hou family, is actually the person she fell in love with and then separated from. He thought she was greedy for money, and she thought he had forgotten the promise. After the reunion, he passed a note and wrote coldly: "Back then, you left for money, but now I come for medicine, so we can clear everything."
Shen Ning clutched the note without explaining - she didn't know that the letter she wrote to him had been intercepted. She didn't know that he had been waiting for her for a year and was turned away three times when he went to Qingpingzhuang. She didn't know that he used his salary to save three hundred taels and buried it under the plum tree on the mountain behind Baoen Temple.
Everyone in the Hou Mansion looked at her: Mrs. Xie forced her to imitate the housekeeper as a concubine, Wen Yu sent fake ginseng to humiliate her in public, and her eldest sister Shen Rong spread rumors that she was having an affair. And Xie Zheng got drunk and blocked the door and shouted: "You are my fiancée, I don't allow you to leave!" Xie Yan's carriage stopped in the night, waiting for her to answer.
She won't leave. She hasn't found the snow ginseng yet. She hasn't asked about the letter yet. She also has a concubine contract left by her biological mother, which says "never be right" - the word "concubine" is what she hates most in her life.
Farmer's daughter, concubine's daughter, widow, fake fiancée. Everyone is choosing for her, but this time, she chooses for herself.
