New story in the works, The Three Sisters of Victoria. Please add it to your collection!
After being reborn as the eldest daughter of an Irish baron, Georgiana lives a fairly comfortable life.
But her father dies unexpectedly, leaving behind enormous debts. The family estate, its land, and all their property are mortgaged and auctioned off.
Georgiana and her two younger sisters are suddenly left with nothing.
She writes to her uncle, an earl, asking for help and receiving shelter, but he has a large family of his own and can't provide the sisters with any further support.
The earl gives Georgiana a choice:
Marry into a nouveau riche industrialist's family.
But in this era, a woman's person and property belong to her husband after marriage, leaving her and her sisters' fates in the hands of her in-laws.
Georgiana refuses and decides to raise her two sisters on her own.
The three sisters go to London to make a living.
She becomes a companion to an elderly woman, then returns to her old trade. Starting with millinery, haute couture, and lingerie, she gradually establishes her own fashion house and puts on a major fashion show. Eventually, she is summoned by the Queen and becomes one of her ladies-in-waiting.
The second sister, Wilhelmina, teaches while writing novels, becoming both an author and the headmistress of a girls' school.
The youngest, Angelica, has an outstanding gift for music. Defying convention, she becomes a respected performer and a gifted young singer.
If they were daughters of the nobility, they could only be ladies, destined to marry and raise children when they came of age.
Now, they have more possibilities.
Just as Georgiana once told her uncle when she turned him down:
"I want to be an independent person, not an appendage of my husband."
Now she confesses her feelings to a family friend who has been by their side for years, quietly caring for them. He is a certain lame marquis, gentle, wise, and learned in many subjects.
Yet he believes she deserves someone better and never dares to take another step closer.
"Why do you never believe that I love you? Why do you decide for me that I don't love you?"
She gently takes his hand.
Note: The male lead has had sex before, and his former fiancée is dead, but he had no feelings for her.
The heroine had a childhood sweetheart. The second male lead and others have one-sided feelings for her, and she has kissed someone.
Age gap: 15 years.
The male lead's disability came from the battlefield. In every other respect, he's top-tier. But he's insecure, and insecurity is a man's best dowry. He'll have an adopted son, but definitely not an illegitimate child. There's a reason for it.
Set in the 1840s.

When I think about my childhood, I am always amazed by my youthful self. My courage (refers to the courage to try new things), ambition (refers to insisting on becoming the king of children), boldness and carefulness (maximum vigilance and observation ability as a child), and erudition (compared to my peers, I am really good at using the knowledge and allusions I have learned and not afraid to express them). In adolescence, I still have the look of my grandma who is the best in the world. I always admire my sobriety and sharp-tongued words when I was a child.
The heroine is 9 years old, not 3 years old. At 9 years old, she is already in the third grade of elementary school. She is not a fool. She can express herself clearly and even do things independently. Moreover, a 9-year-old girl is basically 1.2 Meters tall and weighs an average of 50 to 60 pounds. It is unlikely that she will be hugged easily.
Madam, there are so many little pitfalls from the 19th century. Everyone is interested in reading the copy and title. Please be sure to update them. I will follow you forever. 😚
It feels like it's Lily's side story, the one where she's stranded in the countryside. But does the author want to break it down and write a new article?
If you are not the author, you are too stupid. You tricked me into killing me and you didn't update it at all.
Isn't the previous copywriting no longer written? It looked so good before, why should I change it 😭
The gentleness of a political family makes me think of Lake Baby 😆 Industry
The character in this article is similar to the setting of Lizia's engagement?
Come on, come on 💪, I always feel like I can squeeze out some words by lifting you up and shaking you [covering my face and peeking]
The writing style is exquisite and highly recommended by the author next door [Sahua][Sahua]
