Shen Chunniang was born in a poor family, her parents died early, and she was looked down upon by all. She had understood early in her youth that "love" was unreliable, and only the chips in her own hand were the most reliable.
She took the initiative to approach scholar Zhao Zhi:
Although his family is poor, he has no brothers, sisters-in-law, or parents. He is somewhat talented, and he might be able to become an official's wife in the future.
Shen Chunniang showed off her designs and easily obtained Zhao Zhi's promise and marriage.
But she was very clear in her mind: "This is just a shelter from the rain with an umbrella." If there is a better candidate, Zhao Zhi is just a springboard.
Wearing a green shirt, he glanced behind the table, his eyes moving from her exposed fingertips to her neck, and then across her bright red lips. He spoke slowly: "Madam is really dedicated in handing over the manuscript for her husband."
She lowered her eyes and smiled: "I am from a humble background. I only hope that my husband will become famous in one fell swoop. Being an official's wife for once will be considered a worthwhile achievement in this world."
His eyes moved slightly and he whispered: "Brother Zhao may not be worthy of Madam's appearance and thoughts."
But she didn't say anything - the calculation in her heart never stopped.
Intent: Women's self-salvation and subjective awakening, irony and reconstruction of the traditional image of "good housewife"
