[This novel will be completed and become a paid title on March 2. Thank you all for your support~]

Zhao Qingshu transmigrated into the body of a poor farmer's daughter. Her father was lazy and gluttonous, her mother was bedridden with a serious illness, and the family relied on her doing backbreaking labor to survive.

Just after she arrived, her father sold her to a wealthy master as his twenty-eighth concubine. That very day, the wealthy master's legal wife came to put her in her place.

Zhao Qingshu believed that wherever there was oppression, there would be resistance, and she made such a commotion that the household was turned upside down. Her alcoholic father was counting on her, so he immediately dug a marriage contract out from the bottom of a chest and told her to seek out the man she had been promised to years ago.

The master of the Zheng family had served as an official all his life and was generous and charitable. His family was wealthy and powerful, but unfortunately, his son had been sickly since childhood, always needing medicine. He was now on the brink of death, beyond the help of any remedy.

Just as the family was at their wits' end, Zhao Qingshu arrived with the marriage contract. The Zheng couple recalled an old custom and decided to have their son marry to bring him good luck.

Zhao Qingshu thought she'd wait for her sickly husband to die, then live off the family's vast fortune as a proper layabout. So she and the Zheng family came to an agreement and held the wedding immediately.

Who could have guessed that after the wedding, the eldest Zheng son would gradually regain his color, grow stronger by the day, and eventually pass the imperial examinations with top honors, bringing glory to his family?

The Zheng couple: The wedding really did bring him good luck.

Zhao Qingshu: There goes my chance to inherit a fortune.

Zheng Linsheng: Is being the top scholar's wife really so bad?

Reader's guide: A light, sweet story with no angst. The supporting characters are all matchmakers.

Theme: Work hard, live well, and keep moving forward
