Zhao Yike is the illegitimate daughter of a duke's household. Her mother died in childbirth, and she was raised from a young age by her stepmother, with her elder sister looking after her.
Zhao Yike knows all too well what it's like to live under someone else's roof. At last, she has waited long enough to marry and move out of the duke's residence.
She hoped that after the wedding, she and her husband would live in harmony and enjoy a quiet life of their own. But then she accidentally overheard her husband talking to someone:
"Don't let her fool you. The Zhao girl is deeply scheming. She's not as kind as she seems."
The words chilled Zhao Yike to the bone.
As a child, she depended on her mother completely. After her mother died, she pinned her hopes on her stepmother and elder sister. Now, she had entrusted her whole heart to her husband...
At last, she understood: half of her unhappiness came from her circumstances, but the other half was her own doing. She had always expected to depend on someone else.
From now on, she'll do all the things she never dared even dream of before, one by one, with her own two hands!
