The Marchioness's Daily Fight for Progress

Shen Jiayan, the matriarch of a noble house, has been married for nineteen years. She and her husband are devoted to each other, and their two sons have grown into promising young men. She is the envy of everyone in the capital's noble circles, until a woman claiming to have transmigrated into a book suddenly reveals her tragic future.

The woman says their world is a storybook called The Rebirth of a Noble Household's Matriarch. In the story, Shen Jiayan is an unlucky, worn-out wife who works herself to death, only for others to reap the rewards. Both of her legitimate sons are actually the children of her husband's beloved mistress, and the son Shen Jiayan gave birth to, who was switched at birth, has already been tormented to death by the mistress.

The mistress changes her name and identity and enters the household as a concubine, becoming the sole object of her husband's favor and successfully giving birth to a third son.

When the heir and the second son grow up and both pass the highest imperial examination, Shen Jiayan will be told the truth, stripped of her authority over the household, and trapped in the inner courtyard until she is tormented to death...

The mistress's family is exonerated, restoring her status as a noblewoman. She is made the legal wife, receives an honorific title, and enjoys a life of favor and glory.

According to the storybook, Shen Jiayan will be reborn in her second life and take revenge. But the current timeline is her first life, before she has been reborn, and less than a year remains until the transmigrator reveals the story's ending...
