My Father and Brother Dote Only on Their First Love, So I Marry the Chief Minister. Why Are You Crying?

[Angst First, Then Sweet Revenge]

Cui Zhiyi was the legitimate wife of General Xu Jiaxing. They had once lived in harmony, supporting one another as husband and wife, and had an adorable son. But after his concubine Xue Mingyu framed her, she was sent to a country estate, ostensibly to reflect on her mistakes in peace, but in truth, the servants there abused her for two years. Her heart had long turned to ash, but she held on for the sake of her birth mother, imprisoned in the Cui household, and her son, enduring everything just to survive. But her mother died of illness, and Xue Mingyu raised her son to no longer recognize her as his mother. With her heart completely dead, she remarried Pei Ziqi, the Grand Secretary, and put the past behind her at last, beginning a new life. Only then did her former husband and son begin to regret everything. Xu Jiaxing knelt before her, begging her to look at him just once more. Her son clung to her leg, crying as he called her Mother and begged her to come back and forgive him for being an unfilial son.

She would not forgive them or look back. Holding the child she had with her new husband, she threw herself into his arms. She was no longer the Cui Zhiyi who had endured everything just to please others.
