Le Wantang was reborn on the very first day she was forced to serve as a military prostitute.
In her previous life, she was the pampered daughter of a high-ranking official.
When her family was disgraced and arrested, she became a convict-slave, and her entire family was exiled to a poor island.
Through hard work, Le Wantang managed to build a fortune and finally earn an honorific title, only to be pushed into the sea by her resentful younger sister.
In this life, both sisters were reborn.
Her younger sister chose a husband first, hoping to steal the life that should have belonged to Le Wantang.
With no desire to become a military prostitute, Le Wantang had no choice but to follow Fu Yunche.
He was the most handsome, cold, and promising man in the entire military camp.
But his home was bare, and his family came with a pile of troubles:
A father confined to bed.
A fiery-tempered mother.
A disabled younger sister.
A younger brother who was a burden.
And sooner or later, Fu Yunche would rise to prominence and leave the island.
Fortunately, Le Wantang unexpectedly awakened her mermaid bloodline. She could understand animal speech, predict the weather, withstand storms, and control the tides.
So Le Wantang rebuilt the island, clearing land, fishing, farming livestock, and establishing a supply chain for cargo ships. She became an island lord rich enough to rival a prince. Not only did she bring every member of the Fu family to heel, she also completely changed Fu Yunche.
"Just look at that pathetic face of yours!"
Fu Yunche's mother-in-law criticized him every day. "You're the head of this household. Le Wantang is just a woman! Why are you afraid of her?"
Le Wantang passed by. "My legs are a little sore."
Her mother-in-law replied, "Oh, my sweet girl! Let me give you a massage!"
