Good News for the Matriarch

[Transmigrator vs. noble-born true heiress, rebirth, household intrigue, winning back her husband, and the whole family’s downfall] In her previous life, the fake heiress Jiang Wan schemed to steal Jiang Li’s status as the legitimate daughter, married into the Yongning Marquis’s household, and became the matriarch of the Xie clan. For a time, everyone praised and fawned over her. Meanwhile, Jiang Li, the true heiress who had grown up in the countryside, could only enter the Jiang household as an adopted daughter and marry into the family of a fifth-rank official. Everywhere she went, she faced mocking and contemptuous looks. Who could have guessed that life, though fated, was unpredictable? The minor official’s son became a high-ranking hero who had helped the emperor claim the throne, while the country girl became a first-rank noblewoman. But the marquis’s heir’s wife earned her husband’s disdain. She could not outfight her sisters-in-law, nor could she defeat his concubines. She died miserably in bed, ravaged by illness. Both women were reborn. In this life, the fake heiress would rather die than marry into the marquis’s household, and fought Jiang Li for her marriage match. Jiang Li sighed. Her foolish little sister had lived two lifetimes and still hadn’t figured it out. The reason she could live so splendidly had never been a man. It was always herself. If her sister wanted the husband, she could have him. Jiang Li rather liked the marquis’s heir, Xie Shuhuai. He was of noble status, brilliant with the written word, ambitious, and capable... Most importantly, he was handsome.
