Synopsis

   In her past life, Su Nansheng always followed her eldest sister, who was as aloof as a chrysanthemum, obeying her arrangements. She refused the proposal from the marquis household’s eldest son He Xun and, as part of the dowry, accompanied her sister to marry the marquis’s illegitimate son. Because of a sisterly claim of deep affection, Su Nansheng served her mother‑in‑law, managed the inner household, and fought for the position of matron on her sister’s behalf. But after all threats were removed, her eldest sister poisoned her, broke her legs, and left her to fend for herself… Luckily, heaven favored her and let her live another life… Reborn, she vowed to seize, one by one, everything her eldest sister desired. The matron’s seat — she will take it; the marquisate — her husband shall hold it! She accepted the marquis household’s proposal, marrying the heir He Xun as a concubine, while her eldest sister married the illegitimate son as the principal wife. Later, the heir husband held another wedding for her, made her the principal wife, and fought to secure her formal title. Her eldest sister, having borne nothing and having plotted against the concubine, was finally despised by the illegitimate son; her position as principal wife became unstable, and she ended up begging before Su Nansheng. Su Nansheng, perched high above, smiled brightly: “Sister once said she wanted a quiet life in a humble cottage, elegant nights with an empty jar holding the moon — now all your wishes have come true. What is it you ask of me?”
