Cast-Off Wife? The Capital’s Power Players Are All Fighting to Spoil Her

Her husband passed the palace examination and became the top scholar, only to turn around and divorce his country-bred wife. Su Qingning was decisive: "You can divorce me if you want, but make sure the compensation is adequate. I can leave on my own!" Abandoned, mocked, and tormented by relatives? She activated a spiritual spring, opened up wasteland, and grew so much grain and produce that she could not eat it all. She cooked and made money, with secret recipes in hand and silver pouring into her pockets. Anyone who dared bully her would first have to ask whether her spirit pet Da Hui agreed! In the past, they had said she was too coarse and uncultured to be worthy of the top scholar. Now she owned thousands of acres of fertile land and shops everywhere. During a famine year, she donated ten thousand loads of grain and was personally granted the rank of First-Class Imperial Lady by the emperor. The former top scholar was consumed by regret and knelt down, begging to reconcile. But a cold shout frightened him into kneeling on the ground: "Get lost! She is now an Imperial Lady. You abandoned her like a worn-out shoe back then, and now you are far beneath her!"
