In her previous life, Su Wanhe was forced into the wrong marriage and wed into a poor family that kept her laboring without end.
She cared for her frail in-laws, spent her entire dowry supporting the household, cleaned up her younger brother- and sister-in-law's messes, and endured her husband taking concubines year after year and bringing home mistresses.
She worked herself to exhaustion for half her life, until she finally died from sheer fatigue.
Reborn, she found her cousin weeping and begging to switch their betrothals back, foisting the universally despised wastrel He Erlang onto her.
Su Wanhe readily agreed.
The infighting in a marquis's household, the endless family troubles, the life of an overworked matriarch: whoever wants it can have it!
Everyone lamented that she had ruined her future by marrying He Erlang, a man with no ambition who did nothing but slack off.
But no one knew that all she ever wanted was a carefree life of comfort.
The couple hit it off at once, spending their days sipping tea and watching performances, living freely and taking things as they came, lying flat and paying no mind to the world.
Others mocked them as shameless and utterly devoid of dignity.
Su Wanhe didn't care: dignity was no match for freedom and happiness.
Who knew that the more they slacked off, the luckier they became!
She saved a prince at a banquet, solved a bizarre case while strolling through a garden, and caught a spy while out for a walk. Rewards and honors kept pouring in.
Then came astonishing news: a deceased elder of the He family had returned in glory, and the family had been granted a noble title.
Her once-wastrel husband was suddenly the esteemed heir of a marquis's house. Su Wanhe lay back and enjoyed her good fortune, rising ever higher until she won the ultimate noblewoman's title.
She sighed softly: I only wanted to eat, wait, and die, but it turns out there's no end to the blessings I can enjoy!
