At the market.
The Jian family's housekeeper was beating gongs and drums, offering a large sum of money to the girl to marry the eldest son of the Jian family.
"Five hundred taels!"
"Eight hundred taels!"
"One thousand taels!"
The price continued to rise and the crowd of onlookers whispered.
One thousand taels can buy ten shops and three houses.
Next to the butler stood a blindfolded gentleman who looked like a hermit. He was counting the time on his fingers and urging the butler.
"It will take an hour to get back, hurry up!"
"Your young master can only hold on for two hours at most!"
The housekeeper listened to what the master said and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
He shouted, "Two thousand taels!"
The discussion in the crowd became louder.
"What a pity! My daughter is already married, otherwise I really want her to go!"
"Yeah, if you want a chick, you have to look at her horoscope. It's really hard to find one!"
"With so much silver, I'm afraid you'll have a near-death experience, right?"
"What do you mean by escaping death? It's clearly a ghost marriage. There's no life at all, okay?"
"Didn't the gentleman say that if a woman with a matching horoscope were to go there, she might be able to save the eldest young master of the Jian family?"
"So many famous doctors in the capital city couldn't save him, but a mere woman can?"
There was a woman shivering in the crowd.
The housekeeper noticed her and asked, "Young lady, are you a virgin? What is your birth date?"
Jiang Linglong shook her head: "I'm not!"
After saying that, she turned around and quickly left the crowd.
She walked through several alleys and finally breathed a sigh of relief after turning back to make sure that no one from the Jian family was following her.
In her previous life, she took two thousand taels and went to the Jian family in order to get money to save her sick father.
Jian Sihan was poisoned by a strange poison, and his whole body was red and hot as if it was burned by fire.
She was stuffed into the room.
As a result, Jian Sihan tortured him for three days and three nights.
The process literally killed her.
The poison in Jian Sihan's body is sometimes scalding hot and sometimes icy cold.
During those three days, her cries echoed throughout the Jian family, but no one came to help her.
Three days later, Jian Sihan returned to normal.
But in that aspect, he was like an addict, wanting it every day, wanting it whenever he saw her.
Sometimes it is even asked for regardless of the occasion.
Although Jian Sihan married her, she was nominally a general's wife.
But only she knows the pain she suffers in private.
Half a year later, Jian Sihan went to war, and all the affairs of the family were handed over to Jiang Linglong.
The Jian family owns more than a dozen shops on the street, and Jiang Linglong would wander around when she had nothing to do.
In one of the shops, she met her childhood sweetheart, Yu Hong, a neighboring brother.
After a few interactions, the two developed an affair, and Jiang Linglong took advantage of Jian Sihan's absence and brought Yu Hong home.
As a result, one day Jian Sihan came back and discovered their affair.
Jiang Linglong believed that she saved Jian Sihan's life, and there was only gratitude but no feelings between them.
And if she hadn't been short of money at the time, she wouldn't have come to the Jian family.
She asked for a divorce.
Jian Sihan refused and tied Yu Hong up, and took advantage of her again and again in front of Yu Hong.
Jiang Linglong felt extremely humiliated and tried to escape many times, but was caught by Jian Sihan every time.
Every time she was caught, she was punished in a different way.
Forcing her to make various poses in front of Yu Hong.
Not long after, Jiang Linglong became pregnant, but the baby in her belly was not Jian Sihan's.
One night, Jian Sihan saw Jiang Linglong secretly running to the woodshed where Yu Hong was imprisoned.
The two hugged each other and expressed their love.
"Yu Lang, the baby in my belly is yours."
"Absolutely true!"
"I had it long before Jian Sihan came back."
"Yu Lang, let's hold on for a while. Once the baby in my belly is born, that bastard Jian Sihan will probably relax his vigilance towards me."
"When the time comes, I'll not only take you away, but also our child and all the money in Jian Sihan's family. The three of us will find a place where no one knows us and live..."
Hearing this, Jian Sihan could no longer suppress his anger.
He turned around and dismissed all the servants.
He was so heartbroken that he burned down the entire house.
The last scene of Jiang Linglong was her hugging Yu Hong in the sea of fire, her eyes fixed on Jian Sihan outside the door.
"If there is an afterlife, I, Jiang Linglong, will never take a single cent from your Jian family!"
As the beam fell, she lost consciousness.
When I woke up, I was in the market.
"God felt sorry for me, so he gave me a chance to be reborn..."
"Very good."
"Jian Sihan, go to hell!"
"Let's see if you can survive without me!"
Jiang Linglong gritted her teeth and turned around, she was going to find Yu Hong.
She remembered that in her previous life, Yu Hong worked as a clerk in the Jian family's jade shop.
Soon she arrived at the shop.
"Young lady, what would you like to see?" The shopkeeper came forward to greet her, looking Jiang Linglong up and down.
Seeing that she was dressed simply and the hairpin on her head was made of wood, it was obvious that she had no money.
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he coughed softly, "Young lady, I'm afraid we don't have what you want here."
Jiang Linglong couldn't help but roll her eyes.
In her previous life, Jian Sihan brought her to the street to inspect shops, and the shop owners wanted to kneel on the ground to polish her shoes.
This attitude now is really hard for her to accept.
