Xiao Zhiniang knows that, as the daughter of a low-ranking postal inspector from a small county in the northern frontier, marrying a concubine-born son of a marquis's household in the capital is already a huge step up for her. What's more, he is clearly a man with great potential.
But no matter how respectable things look from the outside, who could have guessed there would be so much rotten beneath the surface?
Xiao Zhiniang's take: Life among the wealthy and powerful is far too chaotic. I can't handle it. Can I return this marriage?

Theme:
The male protagonist, a civil and military general, is a hero who fights desperately in the border areas. The heroine, who lives in the border areas, has a bold personality and worships the hero, so she marries the hero. However, the hero can only be seen from a distance, not up close. The ideal heroic hero of the heroine steps down from the altar and lives a married life of food, rice, oil and salt with the heroine. Only then does the heroine know the difference between ideals and reality. For the ancient men The Lord said that he was a scumbag, not because he took a concubine and had a concubine (this is a scumbag from the perspective of modern people, but it was normal life from the perspective of ancients), but the scumbag I am talking about is that when he married the heroine, the hero did not like her, it was just because the hero's aunt wanted to interfere in his marriage, and the hero only wanted to compete with his aunt, so he married the heroine, no matter what the motivation was. However, after marrying the heroine, he should respect the heroine and give birth to his eldest son. Not only did the hero fail to do so, but he also said that he was very good to the heroine and did not spoil his concubine or destroy his wife. In fact, as the concubine of the Marquis's house, the hero was bullied by his aunt and uncle since he was a child. He should have clear definitions for his children, but it is chaotic and has no rules. It is really quite confusing. Because of the scumbag's behavior, the female protagonist blindly worshiped and trusted the male protagonist, which made her go from being disappointed, worried, and heartbroken to seeing clearly the true face of the heroic male protagonist. In fact, even if the heroine does not have a backup male partner, it is better to live alone or go back to her family than to continue living with the hero, because the hero does not have the consciousness of being a husband. In fact, he does not care about the heroine because he has no love for the heroine, and feels that he is a gift to the heroine, but the heroine is ungrateful. The hero also knows in his heart that the heroine is the one who really cares about him, so he fools and manipulates the heroine casually. These are the things that make the male protagonist scumbag. They are not that he is focused on his career, busy, etc. They are just excuses for not being in love or being shallow in love. A woman will not have a good life if she leaves her original marriage. The heroine may remarry her beloved in the future, or she may live a life of freedom and nourishment alone, or she may not realize how valuable the hero is until she loses him, and then pursues the heroine again and asks for a reunion. No matter which choice, the heroine should leave the hero first. Nice article.
My deepest love for the author~
Although I personally think the ending is a bit regretful
I read it again. It's so well written.
I almost want to stand with Lily... Hui Ji will be hurt...
The author's writing is really good, but I really don't understand the plot. I'm not the kind of person who likes mindless pampering. The male protagonist is so scumbag that it makes people laugh. Why is the female protagonist so heartbroken, but the male protagonist just does anything and ignores the past grudges? Of course there is this kind of love brain, but hasn't the heroine always flaunted that she doesn't live by men or love...!
It's really great to write this first article like this! Although there are some shortcomings, overall it is great! Now that I am tired of reading Su Bai's mindless doting articles, I was super surprised to see this one! Life is not always going as planned. Although reading novels is also a pastime, Su Chong is unable to complain if he forces her to complain... I don't know what he is talking about... Anyway, come on, author! Will continue to pay attention and support!
Although she feels aggrieved, Zhi Niang is happy~ The writing is beautiful and I look forward to the future stories!
Very well written! The author took good notes when writing an article for the first time, which shows his profound skills. Even if there are regrets in this article, it still has flaws. I will continue to follow the author, come on!
In fact, what Mrs. Jiang said was right, it was all caused by the wrong family. The heroine is really good. But this marriage started from the wrong start. It's really heartbreaking
