    Why It Should Get Picked Up: The writing is very good with the authors other novels. The MC is very much someone who keeps her head in the ancient setting, knowing when to bow and when to roar. Unlike other fmc she doesn't suddenly become the damsel in distress, often time she saves herself and everyone she cares about. There is no transmigration or reincarnation therefore in a situation that an ancient women would have been distressed she keeps calm and carries on. The male lead is okay, typical of the author. It has a nice and gradual romance that makes people smile.
    Description:
    MC is the granddaughter of a royal princess and had her marriage retired/withdrawn 3 times but she keeps calm. One day she dreams of the future where the current emperor is dethroned by a new emperor and all their accumulated wealth is gone along with her families death. She decides to protect herself and her families lives. Telling her parents and little brother they decide to live to the fullest. She and her brother decide to hide some money in a secret place just for safety and accidently encounters the secret people of ML. From then on everything starts to roll towards an unexpected future.
    From the author of "To be a virtuous wife", "Eight Treasures Trousseau"

    I didn't know there's more. Anything related to " To be a virtuous wife" and "eight treasure trousseau" is always a solid yes. Really hope someone pick this up.

    I finished the raws and it was amazing. As with anything written by Yue Xia Die Ying, the plot is fresh while the characters are nuanced and unconventional. I would say it's one of her best works. This novel would need a good translator to bring across the beauty of the original text.
    For the title translation, perhaps something along the lines of 'A woman like this'? It's meant to show the willful arrogance of the MC but is she and her family really as brainless and haughty as people say they are? Well... :blobshh:
