Novel blurb: Su Jiner came from a family richer than a kingdom, yet she had been married for three years without a child.

Her parents chose Li Jingluo as her husband. To everyone's surprise, after years of failing the imperial examinations, he rose rapidly through the ranks after their marriage and earned the title of Third Place in the palace exam. He later thrived in officialdom and made a great success of himself... And, unsurprisingly, he used her childlessness as an excuse to throw Su Jiner out, then made a grand show of marrying a beautiful young woman.

After Su Jiner was divorced, Master Su feared his daughter might suffer, so he had to find a man to marry into the family. This time, he chose Chen Tunan, a poor scholar. Chen Tunan's younger brother, Chen Xiangbei, heard of Su Jiner's notorious reputation and couldn't bear to see his brother's bright future ruined. So, without telling his family, he took his brother's place and married into the Su family, looking for a chance to leave. Unexpectedly, after arriving at the Su household, he not only stopped wanting to leave, but rose from a rogue and scoundrel to a major figure. He later became Li Jingluo's sworn enemy...

Everyone speculated about when Chen Xiangbei would throw Su Jiner out, but no one expected them to fall more deeply in love and have two children in three years.

Bystander: "Wasn't Su Jiner supposed to be unable to have children?"

Chen Xiangbei smiled smugly. "That depends on who she's with!"

"I'd rather have a bed in Puxi than a room in Pudong.

"Beautiful Xishuangbanna, you couldn't keep my father. Shanghai is so huge, yet I have no home."

After her older sister died of an illness, Chen Lan set off for Shanghai by train with a letter of introduction, following her sister's last wishes and taking her two nieces to their brother-in-law.

On the train, she unexpectedly met Han Shu, a soldier. With his help, she found her brother-in-law, Liu Bao.

But she never expected that he had already remarried. He refused to acknowledge the children and wouldn't even let them into the house, calling Chen Lan a con artist who had come to extort money.

Chen Lan had no one to turn to in Shanghai, and her two nieces were very young. Seeing how pitiful she was, Han Shu offered to marry her and raise the children together.

Han Shu's first wife had passed away, leaving him three sons.

The eldest, Han Heng, was eight, very fat, and ill-tempered.

The second, Han Shu, was six and had a good disposition, but was constantly sick.

The third, Han Chen, was three and a half, too young to understand much, and cried all day long.

No one could have imagined how Chen Lan would turn such a terrible hand into a royal flush.

Years later, the eldest, Han Heng, joined the military and served his country, earning a first-class merit award.

The second, Han Shu, devoted himself to medicine, saving lives and healing the wounded.

The third, Han Chen, went into law and became a leading legal advocate.

As for her two nieces:

The elder, Chen Shasha, became a table tennis queen and married into a wealthy family.

The younger, Chen Zhanzhan, taught at Tsinghua and filled the world with peach blossoms.

As for Chen Lan, all she had to do was enjoy her life. Yet before she was even forty, she already owned 666 buildings in Pudong.

Her only problem was having so many properties that collecting the rent was a hassle.

Shen Mingmei was the legitimate daughter of the Great General Zhennan. Her maternal grandfather was the chief minister of the court, and her aunt was the imperial consort who was most favored in the palace. She herself was so beautiful that peach blossoms paled and plums yielded before her. She was known as the most beautiful woman in the capital and was the ideal candidate for the crown princess.

Then her maternal grandfather was implicated in a treason case, and her father, in the name of righteousness, sent her mother to prison and publicly married a new wife.

With nowhere left to turn, Shen Mingmei had no choice but to seek help from Prince Chu, Chen Che, a man she had once looked down on, rejected in an engagement, and humiliated.

But Chen Che rejected her too.

In the end, Shen Mingmei could only follow her exiled mother to the far north. On the way, she encountered bandits and tried to kill herself by smashing her head against a wall. A passing burly man saved her and took her to the Wolfman tribe.

The Ata tribe was made up of country bumpkins through and through. They could barely recognize a single character, but they were all strong. When Ata discovered that Shen Mingmei couldn't remember anything, he immediately got an idea. He called her his wife and tricked her into believing they were a loving couple, bound by a love stronger than anything.

Shen Mingmei believed him. They had children together and lived happily as husband and wife, until one day the Crown Prince, Chen Sheng, found her.

"Aheng, I've had such a hard time finding you!"

She remembered everything from her past...

Bonus scene:

When Shen Mingmei woke, she was trembling all over, looking timid and frightened. "Where am I? Who am I?"

Ata, who had been looking worried, suddenly beamed and pulled her into his arms, gently coaxing her. "My wife, how can you not even remember your husband? I'm so heartbroken."

Tears filled Shen Mingmei's eyes. She blinked, her lashes fluttering, and clutched her head. "Husband? My head hurts. I didn't mean to forget you."

Ata kissed her forehead. "Don't cry, my wife. Your husband will take care of everything. You once said you liked Yanzi Island. I bought it yesterday, and today I'm giving it to you."
