[Transmigration + Medicine and Household Intrigue + Marriage Alliance + A Forbearing, Falsely Smiling Heroine x A Forthright, Devoted Hero]
After transmigrating, Xiaoxiao learned medicine from her adoptive father. All she wanted was to live a quiet, peaceful life.
Who knew that when she was fifteen, a carriage from the capital would arrive at her door, revealing that she was Ji Ruhuai, the true daughter of the Ji family who had been lost years ago?
But what awaited her was not a peaceful, prosperous life. Instead, she was handed a marriage contract born of a family alliance and mutual interests.
The whole city gossiped and pitied her,
because she was to marry Jiang Yanbei, the capital's most notorious wastrel.
-
When she first met Jiang Yanbei, he seemed like a radiant young man in a pale yellow robe. She could hardly imagine that he was a wastrel.
As for her, she still wore her usual gentle, polished smile, hiding her sharp edges and trying to keep a low profile. She never let anyone see the real her.
She had already decided that after they married, she would treat him with mutual respect and keep him at arm's length, regarding marriage as nothing more than an obligation.
But once she married into the marquis's household, even if she kept to herself, trouble still found her. She was forced to take charge of the household, and her younger sister-in-law's marriage arrangements were placed in her hands as well.
-
Everyone said Jiang Yanbei was debauched, stubborn, and unambitious.
But only she knew that once he shed his carefree facade, Jiang Yanbei was clever, perceptive, considerate, and gentle.
