After the General's Wife Is Reborn, the Whole Family Begs Her for Mercy

On the day they married, her husband left with the army. Ning Ruyan waited eagerly for his return, but six months later, the news came that he had died in battle. The report also said he had been accused of treason. With the general’s residence surrounded, her husband and his illegitimate son imprisoned, her mother-in-law took her hand and said, “Ning, from now on, we’ll all be counting on you.” Her sisters-in-law and the concubines knelt and wept too. “Madam, you’ll be in charge of the household from now on.” So Ning Ruyan climbed into that man’s bed. Afterward, the people of the general’s residence mocked her as a woman of loose morals, while still expecting her to earn money to support their lavish lifestyle. For the sake of her supposedly dead husband, Ning Ruyan endured it all. Until one day, she saw the husband who had supposedly been dead for ten years holding his beloved wife and son. Only then did she realize she had lived a lie for all those years. After she was drowned, she opened her eyes again and returned to the day the news of her husband’s death had arrived. The general’s residence is surrounded? She has food and drink in her Wutong courtyard. Her father-in-law and brother-in-law are arrested? She’s too unwell to get out of bed. … The Commissioner wants a meal? Fine, as long as he doesn’t make her climb into his bed. She’ll cook him whatever he likes. Jiang Yan was baffled. Had his face lost its appeal? Or was his power no longer enough to get what he wanted? Ning Ruyan: No, they both work just fine. They just don’t work on me. In the end, Jiang Yan could only change his tactics and turn shameless: “Yanyan, I’ve been hurt again!”
