The Tycoon's Lazy Wife

[Main story complete]

In her previous life, Jiang Yao was a first-class maid in a Tang dynasty chancellor's household...

Productivity was low in ancient times, and farmers suffered. Desperate to have enough to eat, she begged her parents to sell her into a wealthy household as a laboring maid at the age of seven. Ambitious, she worked her way up from the lowest position to become the young lady's personal maid. She also took care of her family, clearing the way for her younger brother to pass the civil service exams and enter officialdom. She even managed to free herself from her status as a servant.

On the very day she succeeded, she died suddenly in an accident and transmigrated into the modern world as a daughter of the wealthy Jiang family, where she became someone's stepmother.

...She only wanted to enjoy the good life. Why was it so hard?

The original owner fell in love with a poor young man and was willing to give up the privileges of a wealthy life to marry for love, but her father forced her to marry the powerful Fu Hanzhou.

Young Mr. Fu was already an industry leader. He had an eight-year-old son, worked out regularly, and had a chiseled physique. He was handsome, refined, and gentlemanly.

When Jiang Yao met her “husband,” just back from a business trip, she saw a handsome man who could make his own decisions and wouldn't expect her to have a child.

She could just lie flat.

“I have a question, Mr. Fu.”

“Go ahead.”

“I don't want to work. I just want to lie around. How much spending money can you give me each month?”

The new assistant in the CEO's office was mild-mannered, dressed in a simple employee uniform, with her straight hair loose. Her face was merely pretty.

No one paid her any mind.

Later, she became the CEO's girlfriend, fiancée, wife, and the company's CEO.

Everyone was curious: How had someone so ordinary managed to win over Ling Chen?

Ling Chen held Yun Ning's hand and rubbed it, his gaze deep. “She's kind, gentle, and loves me.”

Yun Ning smiled warmly. Only she knew the truth.

She'd joined the CEO's office with the goal of becoming a rich man's wife.

A huge scandal rocked the Tang family compound: their youngest son wasn't an only child after all. He had an older sister, secretly raised in the countryside under the care of their uncle.

The state-owned factory had gone bankrupt and Father Tang had been laid off, so he was finally preparing to bring his daughter back from the countryside.

Whenever people mentioned Tang Mu, the Tang family's son, they scoffed. He skipped class, dated young, and got into fights.

He was the local bully.

He was bound to end up in jail sooner or later.

No one knew what the daughter raised in the countryside would be like.

Conditions out there were poor. Her birth parents hadn't been around, and she'd been living under someone else's roof. Surely she'd be even worse than their son.

Then a young woman with braided hair and a floral dress stepped out, holding a club as thick as an arm. “Tang Mu, I'll count to three. Get back here and do your homework.”

Before she could reach three, Tang Mu fell to his knees with a thud, clinging to Father Tang's leg and wailing for help. “Dad, are you just going to let Sis bully me?”

Father and Mother Tang were about to speak when Tang Mu's arm shook, and the club snapped in two.

“Do your homework or break your leg. Which will it be?”

Everyone: “...” So much for their guess that she'd be meek and timid.

It turned out Tang You was the local bully!

In her previous life, Tang You had wasted the best years of her life and spent half of it poor. Reborn, she had two wishes:

First: Study hard and get into the university of her dreams.

Second: Make money, and lots of it.
