Shen Yaohua never imagined that after she went away on business for half a month, her husband would replace their daughter's wet nurse with a delicate little widow!
When she walks into her daughter's room, a scarlet mandarin-duck bellyband is still sticking out from under the cradle, not properly hidden...
Her precious daughter, carried in her womb for ten months, is now covered in a red rash. Her trusted maid, who grew up by her side, has been flogged and confined, unable even to get out of bed!
Back then, he was willing to have the old family patriarch break one of his legs and kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and nights just to marry her. And now he's lost his mind over a little wet nurse?
At the same time, she is horrified to discover that the rash on her daughter, who is not yet a year old, is actually a venereal disease!
The sick wet nurse concealed her illness and begs on her knees not to be sold off.
Their own daughter may have been switched, but her husband knows nothing about it.
On their wedding night three years ago, he swore that if he ever wronged her, he would suffer eternal damnation.
Now that their daughter has been born, does he look down on her for being a merchant's daughter and unworthy of becoming the matriarch of the family?
Fine! You won't appreciate what I've given you, so don't even dream of an amicable divorce. She'll be the one to divorce him!
One slap for the wet nurse, two for her oath-breaking husband, and three for the in-laws who think they can control her.
She takes her daughter and marries again, deliberately choosing a loyal young man with a narrow waist and broad shoulders, who has no family to rely on.
She's learned her lesson. In this marriage, all she needs is her dear little brother at home, helping his wife raise their daughter.
But why does the person standing beside the new emperor's throne, smiling as she receives her title, look so familiar?
On her next wedding night, the young Duke Xie gently winds her cascading black hair around his long, elegant fingers. Her loyal hunting dog has transformed into a dangerous wolf king.
"Even if I offered you mountains of gold and silver, it wouldn't be enough. It seems only this body of mine is worthy of you..."
"Sister... Has he ever been here?"
