Scheming for a Good Marriage

(Reborn, household power struggles, a heroine who grows over time, sweet romance, one-on-one, both leads’ first relationship) Su Yuan has a dream. In it, the Su family dislikes her, her mother hangs herself, and when Su Yuan comes of age, her family plans to marry her off as the second wife of the Earl of Chengyang, a man old enough to be her grandfather. She can only do her best to find a match for herself, but who could have known he would be the wrong man? She dies as a result. After waking from the dream, Su Yuan decides that this life won’t be as stifling as the one she saw. Her gentle, kind mother, Madam Shen, deserves the happiness that should be hers. She won’t show such obsequious respect to her sharp-tongued, mean-spirited grandmother, Madam Zhao, either. Her self-serving grandfather is no more worthy of her respect. As for her father, who cares only about power, Su Yuan wants nothing to do with him. But the path ahead is far from easy. Su Yuan knows just how important power is, and the man who saved her in her dream turns out to have an exalted status! So Su Yuan has no choice but to get close to him... Who knew she would fall right into his trap? “If you want it, Ah Yuan, the whole Great Sheng is yours. And so am I.”
