CompletedIn my previous life, I was the most downtrodden legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's residence. My birth mother died young, and my stepmother, under the guise of "it's for your own good," pushed me into a marriage with a dissolute young master.
After marriage, I endured endless cold stares, and when I died of illness, I couldn't even get a sip of hot soup.
Reborn back to my coming-of-age ceremony, my stepmother again brought up the marriage proposal. I publicly overturned the teacup and exposed the ugly truth of Young Master Wang owing gambling debts.
My stern father actually tore up the marriage contract and even invited three tutors to teach me to read. My little tyrant brother guarded the school gate every day, fiercely protective, and my elder sister even sneaked rouge into my room, saying, "Being beautiful is the absolute truth!"
I completely let loose. I led noble ladies to form a poetry club, changing stale couplets into doggerel; I rode a fast horse to shake off arrogant young masters; my casually written chapbooks were wildly snapped up by booksellers.
When a good-for-nothing brought engagement gifts to my door, I threw out his brothel bills: "Want me to be your creditor?"
The day I met Jiang Yan, the new top scholar, he was squatting on the street with me, vying for sugar paintings. He laughed out loud at my crooked dragon, yet he handed me his phoenix painting, saying, "Accepting you means I'll protect you when you get into trouble from now on."
Now when I go out, my younger brother carrying snacks follows behind me, along with a maid holding an umbrella, and my hidden father who sends secret guards. Those who once bullied me can only watch as Jiang Yan and I ride off on horseback.
In this life, I will turn all my past grievances into honeyed sweetness!
CompletedBefore rebirth, Shen Weiwan was the famous "stupid" legitimate daughter in the capital. She was used as a pawn by her aunt and cousin, handing over the key to the general's mansion warehouse left by her father. She was even coaxed into marrying a lame scumbag on behalf of her cousin, and finally framed for "adultery," beaten to death with sticks in the snow.
Reborn back to fifteen years old, it was the day her aunt first deceived her into stealing her mother's relic. Looking at the aunt in front of her who was crying and saying "for your own good," and the cousin Shen Ruorou hiding behind her and secretly rejoicing, a cold light flashed in Shen Weiwan's eyes—this life, she would collect back what this group of "relatives" owed her, principal and interest!
