The Farmer's Daughter: A Proxy Bride to the Scholar

Li Wan'er arrives in ancient times with three pieces of jade, and before she can even get her bearings, she's married off in place of someone else to a scholar. The scholar is a shrewd man, and she loses their first battle of wits. They trade moves back and forth, each doting on the other. The despised little scholar and the scorned farmer's daughter become husband and wife, united as one and strong as steel. And so they rise to prominence: the little scholar becomes a high-ranking official, and she becomes a titled lady.
