Synopsis
Cheng He was just a poor relative living under someone else's roof. With his sweet words, he won the heart of Mu Zhenyan, the only daughter of the Mu family. After the death of Mu's parents, the two got married, and Cheng He promised: "We will be together for the rest of our lives." For more than ten years, Mu Zhenyan used the connections and money of the legitimate daughter of the Crown Prince to support Cheng He's official career, helping him become Fuzhou's pacifier and governor. They have a son, Cheng Lusong, and two daughters, Cheng Luling and Cheng Luyu, and their deep love as a couple has become a beautiful story in the world. But Cheng He, who was successful in his middle age, built an outhouse outside the city without telling her. The oath was broken, and Mu Zhenyan went to the other courtyard to deal with the outer chamber in person. The couple fell into a cold war. She confided in her two daughters: "Men are unlucky, and the daughter's family must hold on to their own interests." This sobriety has become a motto for her daughters. Mu Zhenyan then took the initiative to give in and found a gentle and innocent woman as a concubine for Cheng He, which not only saved the face of the house, but also gave each other a step forward. Cheng He missed his old love and her transparency. Although the two were no longer passionate as before, they also restored their old friendship and respected each other as guests. The turmoil at the gate of the house touches people's hearts. The legitimate son Cheng Lu was not bad in nature, but he flirted with the maid and then abandoned her. When the maid was sold to Zhuangzi, he was marrying his bride. The eldest daughter, Cheng Luling, engraved her mother's teachings in her heart. After entering the palace based on her talent and appearance, she abandoned her romantic fantasies and relied on her resourcefulness to navigate the turbulent harem step by step. She eventually ascended to the position of noble concubine and became an unshakable presence in the harem. The youngest daughter Cheng Luyu once fell in love with a scholar from a poor family, but she knew that she couldn't do anything about it, so she cut off the relationship and married into a noble family. Cheng Luyu's personal maid Ping'er has been with her since she was ten years old. When her master got married, she also chose to be an honest and responsible steward of the house so that she could live a stable life. When the news came that Lu Ling had been promoted to a noble concubine, Cheng He stood beside Mu Zhenyan and received the good news that his concubine had given birth to a child. Men thought it was double happiness, but women just smiled complicatedly. Mu Zhenyan spent the rest of her life guarding the back house, Lu Ling held power in the palace, Lu Yu managed a stable family, and Ping'er also found ordinary happiness. Every woman has her own destiny and becomes the master of her own life. Purpose: Ancient inner house novel, a woman grows up and has many possibilities in life, she only chooses the path of reason
