[No CP·Guyuan Machiavellian·Big Heroine]
Everyone said that Xie Lingyi was blessed with good fortune.
His grandfather was a minister, his father was a high-ranking official, and his younger brother was studying to achieve success. Even the candidate for marriage was the most sought-after young scholar in Yuezhou.
She lacks nothing.
So the first time she said "no," no one took her seriously.
Until she opened the three-year account book of Qingxizhuang.
There was only one "old customary settlement" in the account, but there were three boat owners outside the account - she couldn't name them, but the money fell into their pockets every year. She stopped the money and put it back with her own hands. Because she finally saw clearly: Industry is a network. If you are not in the network, you will be removed at any time.
She asked her father for six months.
I run my own business and make up for the losses from the dowry.
In the past six months, she encountered the state government's new policies, the dyeing ban, ship delays, the separation of weavers, and Zhuangzi's hand who was watching her behind the scenes of her marriage. She thought she could control a person by knowing his price, but he ended up betraying her for his family and livelihood. She thought that everyone had a price, until she met someone who was willing to lose his official position for his principles.
Her father taught her to read accounts because he appreciated her intelligence.
The father taught his younger brother to take power because the younger brother wanted to inherit.
Xie Lingyi never asked "why" again.
She started learning the rules.
Starting from a village that had suffered losses for three consecutive years, a noble lady of twenty years reached out for the first time to something that this era had never prepared to give her.
