The Matriarch Marries Again and Becomes Empress, While Her Scumbag Ex's Family Goes Mad

When the Chu family was in dire straits, Lin Jingwan married into the family, cared for her parents-in-law, and helped support the Marquis's household.

When her husband returned from military service, victorious, he brought back the ex-wife who had abandoned him and their child.

The entire Marquis's household took her for granted.

Chu Tingyu said confidently, "You're just a merchant's daughter. Who else could you rely on besides our Marquis's household?"

Liu Yan said with pity, "It's so sad to be a woman in a feudal society. All you can do is stay cooped up in a house with four walls. I'm different. I can help my husband win battles with my martial skills, manage the household with my scholarly ones, and even open shops to earn money. My husband and I will be together for life, just the two of us. Lin Jingwan, you'll die alone and miserable in this household!"

Lin Jingwan watched the clouds drift by. All she had to do was relinquish control of the household, and the Marquis's family couldn't make ends meet.

All she had to do was support her cousin, who was set on marrying her own cousin, and the vow to be together for life, just the two of them, was broken.

The Marquis's household had only just climbed back to the top when it fell into ruin again, while she quietly secured an even better marriage.

Who could have guessed that the least favored Fourth Master of the Marquis's household was the current Emperor's grandson?

Then she'll just have to become her ex-husband's aunt by marriage, and, while she's at it, an empress.
