A Concubine Branch Builds a Family

The Shen family unexpectedly transmigrated to the Great Jing dynasty and into the household of Shen Qingzhu, an investigating censor. They became the low-born third branch of the Shen family. Just before the original Shen Qingzhu was due to marry, her legitimate cousin inexplicably stole her wedding match. The whole family was so humiliated and furious that they chose to die together in revenge against the main branch.

After sorting things out, Shen Qingzhu was utterly speechless.

When the main branch married off their daughter, her family showed up dressed in white, nearly angering Old Madam Shen to death.

Her faithless fiancé publicly humiliated her, but she hit back with all the defiance she could muster, leaving the main branch disgraced.

Just then, the entire Shen clan was stripped of its official posts, and with disaster looming, everyone scattered.

The third branch happily received the whole package: a family split and expulsion from the clan.

Shen Qingzhu bound herself to a business System.

So what if they were cast out of the clan? So what if they couldn't make it in the capital? So what if her marriage match had been stolen? She had strength and plenty of tricks up her sleeve. Sooner or later, she would lead her family to an even higher position, where the people of the Shen clan could only look up to them.
