A Divorce Is Fine, but the Marquis’s Household Grandmother Is Coming with Me

Shen Qingwu, the legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion, possesses medical skills renowned throughout the land, yet her status as a woman has made her a pawn of her family. When she was young, she and the young lord of the Marquis's mansion exchanged feelings through paper kites and made a promise: “When I return, I'll marry you in a bridal sedan carried by eight bearers.” Three years later, when the heir to the Marquis's mansion came to ask for her hand, she thought that even if their marriage wasn't a match made in heaven, they could at least treat each other with mutual respect. But after four years of cold treatment and a letter of divorce, she discovered that her husband's beloved was none other than Xie Qinghuai, the so-called distant aunt by marriage, formerly his concubine-in-waiting. And the supposed orphan was actually his own child. When she signed the divorce agreement, all of the capital laughed at her for giving up wealth and status. Little did they know, the deeds to the Marquis's land and properties were already tucked in her sleeve. He had deceived her heart, so naturally he could pay her back with a little cash.
