The Phoenix's Struggle: A Plain-Looking Wife

Could anyone have a more disastrous transmigration than hers? Being “plain-looking” would be bad enough. Her marriage is a proxy marriage. Her husband is a fool. Yet when no one else is around, he mischievously asks her, “Don’t you think we should have a baby?” The Xie family is powerful and wealthy, and full of trouble. Handsome men and beautiful women fight one another at every turn. She is the eldest grandson’s wife of the Xie family, and a poor woman looked down on by everyone. But she isn’t afraid. She plans every move, and she’s clever, capable, bold, and sharp-witted. Whether the older generation is causing chaos or the younger one is up to no good, she can still turn this into a model family. Who else could be the matriarch of the household, if not her? Though she’s plain-looking, her husband still inspires jealousy and admiration in others. And she remains perfectly content, saying, “It’s normal for some people to dislike you and others to like you. If everyone likes you, you’re a god. If nobody likes you, you’re not human.” A young wife’s guide to self-improvement: be clever, sharp, clear-minded, emotionally perceptive, and resolute. In the contest between the phoenix and the firebird, who will emerge victorious?
