The original owner's name was Qiang Wan, the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she had requested this marriage.
The eldest sister is the Crown Princess, and the third sister is engaged to the legitimate son of a noble family. He has an ordinary appearance and an unpleasant personality. The original owner, who was adopted into the second house since childhood, swore that she would never lose to her two sisters in marriage.
Prime Minister Qiang had a younger brother, Master Qiang Er, who was trampled by a horse's hoof when he was young and lost his fertility.
As the eldest brother and with few children, Prime Minister Qiang could not bear his younger brother's repeated requests and adopted his second daughter to him. Alas, after all, the eldest daughter had been promised to the prince, and the eldest son was related to the next generation, so he could only give the second daughter to him.
The second daughter (the original owner) went from being the daughter of a prime minister to the daughter of a seventh-rank official.
Although Prime Minister Qiang and his wife still cared for their daughter, she was adopted after all, so there was a gap in their relationship and it was not as close as if she had been raised by their own family.
After the accident, Mr. Qiang Sanye never recovered and he married a wife from a humble family. Both of them had no ambition and all their wealth and glory depended on his eldest brother's family, so they never thought of hiding the original owner's life experience. As a result, she knew since she was a child that she was the biological daughter of her uncle and aunt.
The original owner didn't understand at first and had fun playing with his brothers and sisters. But as he grew up and became sensible, he became dissatisfied.
Why was it that, since they were all daughters of the Prime Minister, the eldest sister was always flattered and admired? And yet, she was always left out in the cold? Especially since the Prime Minister's wife later gave birth to twins, the second brother Qiang Yang and the third daughter Qiang Baowen.
The eldest sister is Qiang Baorou, the eldest brother is Qiang Shen, the second brother is Qiang Yang, and the third sister is Qiang Baowen.
Look, all the girls’ names contain the word “bao”, but her name is Qiang Wan.
Even her two brothers, knowing her identity, were too polite to her and not close enough to her.
Every time she went to play with them, the brothers and sisters who were originally joking and playing would immediately quiet down when they saw her and greet her politely.
Qiang Wan was filled with hatred and jealousy.
He made a fuss about this many times, but each time he was scolded by the Prime Minister for being ignorant.
Qian Wan watched helplessly as her brothers and sisters prospered in the capital, while her own position became increasingly embarrassing.
Until the end, she was seventeen years old and her marriage was still not settled.
The first-class noble families felt that she was adopted and not valuable enough, so they were unwilling to marry her as their eldest daughter-in-law. She herself looked down on those of lower status.
The eldest sister is the Crown Princess, and the third sister's fiancé is also the eldest son of a first-class aristocratic family. Their future prospects are limitless.
Why should she marry some second-rate sons and second-class nobles?
She is also the Prime Minister's daughter!
She doesn't accept it!
The original owner was so angry that he almost bit his teeth to pieces.
She stared intently at all the nobles in the capital. It happened that at this time, Meng Yuchuan's wife died of illness, and the Marquis's Mansion was in urgent need of a hostess.
Qiang Wan counted on his fingers, the Marquis's Mansion was a title bestowed by His Majesty himself, and it could be inherited. The family had a clean family tradition and a clean backyard. Meng Yuchuan also commanded a large army and was a popular figure in front of the emperor.
Although the former Marquis' wife left behind a son, he was still very young...
The original owner's eyes became brighter and brighter. What's wrong with being a stepmother? As long as she handles it properly, she will be a glorious marquis' wife!
When the news came that the Marquis's family was planning to marry their son off to a second wife, she immediately started a scene at home. If they didn't let her marry, she would go on a hunger strike! She would hang herself! She would swallow gold!
The family was in chaos and had no peace.
Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion: "..."
Unable to persuade the original owner, the Prime Minister had to agree.
So, just like that, the original owner, a virgin, married into the Marquis's mansion and began her life of seeking death.
After reading this, Xihe was furious. He wanted to rush to the Prime Minister's residence and give the Prime Minister and his wife a good scolding. This was too much bullying! He couldn't stand it!
We are all biological children, why are you so partial? Why is she the one who was adopted?
What hurts most is the attitude of the two brothers. It is very obvious that they are more natural and friendly towards the eldest sister and the younger sister. That sense of estrangement is really hurtful.
From the original owner's perspective, apart from the fact that he shouldn't have messed with Meng Huaiyu, Xihe really felt that the original owner was miserable.
She felt a little bit reluctant.
What is particularly heartbreaking is that the Prime Minister is actually happy to see this marriage happen.
The Prime Minister, who is second only to the emperor and above everyone else, has been coveting the military power in Meng Yuchuan's hands for a long time. So when the original owner was clamoring to get married, the Prime Minister was furious on the surface, but in fact he was calculating in his mind.
Calculate how much benefit you can get from marrying into the Marquis's Mansion.
The original owner knew nothing about this and thought she had finally won the game and couldn't wait to get married.
Fighting for housekeeping rights, trying to get a stepson...very busy.
"Young Madam, today is the fifteenth day. The Marquis will come tonight. You must seize the opportunity. If you can take the opportunity to conceive a child, you will have nothing to worry about in the future." The nanny said happily.
Xihe was speechless and choked up, thinking, Mammy, your plan is probably going to fail.
"Young Madam, there's news from the front yard that the Marquis will not be back for dinner tonight."
Just then, the maid's voice sounded outside the door.
Xihe opened his eyes, and his dark and bright eyes were misty.
Nanny Liu paused as she twisted her hair, her hands trembling slightly. She was unable to utter a single word. The Marquis was truly...
"The Marquis must have some official business today and will come to the main courtyard in the evening. Don't worry, Madam." She forced a smile.
I made up my mind to send someone to guard the gate soon and drag the Marquis here no matter what. Otherwise, it has been almost a year since the wedding, and the young lady is still not pregnant. What will outsiders think?
Xihe slowly stood up, crystal clear water droplets sliding down her skin, and she yawned with her hands covering her lips.
"Well, Wan'er, don't worry."
Xihe wiped the water droplets off her body with a soft handkerchief and put on a soft thin shirt. She slowly walked out of the bathroom and sat down in front of the dressing table. Several maids came forward to comb her hair, draw her eyebrows, and apply perfume.
Xihe supported her chin with her hand and looked at the person in the mirror. Well, her appearance was indeed... not stunning enough.
She has light eyebrows, dark and bright almond-shaped eyes, a small mole on her nose, and slightly pale and thin skin. In today's world, thinness is considered beautiful. In order to imitate the delicate and graceful posture of others, the original owner ate less than a cat every day.
She pinched her thin and dry wrist and said, "Well, I need to gain weight."
The maid wanted to continue putting on makeup, but Xihe brushed her away and said, "That's it."
The sun had not yet set, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell in the yard. The little maid squatted in the corner and spoke in a low voice.
Xihe changed into loose and comfortable clothes, tied her long hair loosely with a hairpin, and lay on the small couch beside the bed, one hand supporting her forehead and the other staring out the window in a daze.
Nanny Liu thought she was waiting for the Marquis, so she told her some funny stories to coax her while sending someone to intercept her at the gate.
As the sky gradually darkened, the maids and servants brought the food to the table.
Xihe started eating alone.
Aunt Liu was surprised: "Young Madam, you are not waiting for the Marquis anymore?"
Xihe ate with an appetite: "My Lord is probably entertaining ministers, so I won't wait for him. Otherwise, the food will get cold and I'll have to trouble the chefs to remake it."
What she was thinking was, since this guy wasn't coming anyway, why should she care about him?
