Playing the Green Tea in a House Infighting Novel

Chu Yufu unexpectedly transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon fodder illegitimate daughter who wouldn't survive beyond chapter 60. In the original novel, her legitimate elder sister and cousin were vying for the Young Master's affection, while she was about to be packaged off by her legitimate mother to a scumbag, serving as a stepping stone for her younger brother.

Before meeting the scumbag, her legitimate mother specifically instructed her: "Dress more brightly to catch Young Master Li's eye." The next day at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, she appeared in a bright pink outfit, making a grand entrance, and asked with a 'green tea' smile: "Mother, does this outfit look bright enough on me?"

After much effort to shake off the scumbag, her legitimate mother immediately turned around and betrothed her to a minor general whom her legitimate sister disdained. Looking at the minor general's name, she didn't cause trouble this time—the future Grand General Zhenbei? If no one wants him, I'll gladly take him.

Who knew that on the day their horoscopes were to be matched, news of a great victory from the border reached the capital. The minor general had become a Grand General. Her legitimate mother immediately snatched the red paper, saying: "Fuyu, your fate is inauspicious and clashes with his. It might not be suitable." She then turned and handed the engagement contract to her own daughter.

The first time Pei Yue saw Chu Yufu was at the Li family's chrysanthemum viewing banquet. She was adorned with jewels, wearing a pink dress, completely out of place among the elegantly dressed noblewomen. She looked foolish and gaudy.

He saw Chu Yufu again at a pharmacy during the Lantern Festival. She wore a serene expression, articulately debating medical principles with the doctor: "If you're so knowledgeable, how could you not know that in such a situation, one must first promote yang and induce sweating? Only then will Ma Huang Tang be effective."

Standing on the pharmacy's second floor, gazing at the fair, pretty face downstairs, Captain Pei was first stunned, then slightly raised an eyebrow, tapping his long fingers twice on the table. He hadn't expected this Second Miss Chu to have 'two faces'.

He had originally intended to refuse the marriage arranged by his uncle, but suddenly he felt it might not be so bad after all.

Two months later, after a great victory in battle, Pei Yue returned home, only to suddenly hear that his fiancée was to be changed. He twitched the corner of his mouth. What was the Chu family thinking? Did they really believe he would accept anyone?
