My Younger Sister Insisted On A Marriage Exchange Wanting To Make Me The Wife Of A Marquis

Qin Yuan awoke to her reborn life and discovered her legitimate younger sister (di mei) had also been reborn. Not only did her sister steal her husband from the previous life—the poor Juren (meaning: a successful candidate in the imperial examinations)—but she also vigorously orchestrated a marriage exchange, pushing Qin Yuan to marry her own former husband, the Marquis of Dingbei.

Though Qin Yuan found it strange why her di mei would do this, when a pie falls from the sky, you simply catch it!!!

In their previous life, her di mei had been green with envy: “Qin Yuan has only ever been fit to pick up my cast-offs since we were children. So how is it that she became the Zaixiang Furen (meaning: Prime Minister’s wife), sitting in a position of honor and enjoying a life of luxury? Meanwhile, I was despised by my husband, trampled by concubines, and suffered a lonely, bitter life!”

In this life, her di mei was plunged into despair: “Why is Qin Yuan’s life even better?! Where is my position as the Zaixiang Furen? Why is my husband still just a lowly sesame-seed official? On top of a difficult mother-in-law, there’s also a childhood sweetheart cousin watching him like a hawk!”

Qin Yuan could only laugh mockingly to herself. “This title of Marquis’s Wife, practically forced onto me, is actually rather fragrant, isn’t it? Tsk tsk… I am capable in business, skilled in medicinal scents, possess grand strategies in my breast, and hold excellent plans in my heart. In the last life, becoming the Zaixiang Furen was entirely due to my own meticulous planning, my delightfully naive little sister.”

Let that husband from her previous life and her di mei remain locked together. In this lifetime, she would not waste any effort propping him up so he could climb the ranks. Wouldn’t it be better to achieve her own success?

The Marquis of Dingbei, who had married late due to guarding the frontier, was a God of War when clad in his armor. Once he shaved off his beard, he was a devastatingly handsome man. The women who adored him were numerous enough to fill carts and be measured by the bushel.

On their wedding night, he abandoned his young wife, thinking she would be easy to coax later.

Later…

He discovered that she simply didn’t care, and had, in fact, been the one coaxing him along the entire time.

Daily Life in the Marquis’s Residence:

The Marquis knelt at the doorway:”I know my wife holds me in her heart. Please, give me another chance.”

After a long while, Qin Yuan’s voice drifted out: “I’ll consider it… depending on my mood.”

Everyone else: Tsk tsk. The Marquis is practically his wife’s dedicated lapdog. A professional one.
