Shen quirong her former rival turned sister in law, she married ye weijun the younger brother that the original likes
I think ml is in love with her since she was a little girl, the ml is close to her two brothers,he saved her from a pond when she was 10yrs old and her mother wanted to give her to him for marriage but she was too busy chasing after the younger brother to notice him. That's why he doesn't believe her when she says she doesn't care about the brother anymore
May i know why when she got up in the first chapter she got lots of bruises? Cuz the tler did mention that ml did not rape her.
It wasn't mentioned what exactly he did for her to end up the way she did.it only says she woke up with so many bruises on her body
On their way to the border the ml teaches her how to ride a four clover short horse that doesn't listen to her, he was shocked she learns faster. They stopped at one of the resident of the ml and the FL tried to change the whole place to a warm home and was shocked by her own thoughts. The old nanny that took care of the ml lives there too but she has plans of bringing her daughter to become a concubine of ml so she hates the FL and questions every action of her like when she wanted to plant a small garden the nanny was saying that she should return the garden back to the original appearance and she did the same with the pond for fishing. She was angry because if there's a garden she won't be able to steal some grocery shopping money again. She always angers the FL thinking the ml sees her as a mother and will support her so when the ml left the house for some work she goes to torment the FL for about a month before the FL was angered into letting the slaves beat her if she doesn't do her work and she bluffed her saying that when her husband comes back she will make him chase her away scaring the nanny. After recovering from a beating she still went to tell the FL that her granddaughter is coming to stay with her, the FL knows what she is thinking but just decide to play along since she doesn't want to have anymore bad reputation like she does in Beijing. The ml spy told him everything that happened and he was happy that she was using him to brag, her servant saw a bird(parrot) by her window and decided to give her to raise him but she says she doesn't want it and it should be roasted for meat and when the bird heard that, it wanted to run but the ml came in time to kill it telling her it was a puppet that has spied on her location and they saw something poisonous in the stomach but luckily no one touched it directly so nobody died. She was frightened at what happened and scared of birds too from that day but a crow always comes to spy on her and she doesn't have any martial arts to chase or kill it so she threatens it with her husbands power, the ml came back wounded and she tended to him only to discover more ugly scars, she suggested suturing the wound up and described the procedure for him which he told the army doctor to do, they were both impressed with the new techniques and decided to adopt them for wounded soldiers. She didn't tell him about the bird till the next day and he was angry. But the bird always comes to see her and look at her then when it senses the ml it vanishes. She asked it what it's name was but he answered arrogantly that even her father's not qualified to know his princely name. She told the ml and he started making preparations for her to temporary leave the residence to his camp because he doesn't want her to be captured and used to threaten him so she disguised herself as a man and painted her face too along with her 2 servants and they left. Back in the tent the ml knocked out her servants and asked for sex which she complied only for a soldier to come and call him when they almost did it, she was angry and upset about it but later fell asleep. In the camp the bird still found her which she surprised and she wanted to go and look for the ml to tell him the camp isn't safe too but just as she heard something outside her tent and turned to look something (a shadow) hit her neck and she passed out only waking up to find herself in a dirty tent and an old woman asking her to do the laundry, she immediately knows she was kidnapped and removed all her jewelry and gave to the woman asking for a rough and old clothes and she told the auntie she is not married , she was pleased with her and gave her old clothes, she then removed her expensive clothes to gift the woman so the woman then told her that she will help her get into the third prince bed, the Auntie kept telling her how she will drug the prince and allow her to sleep with him, in the night she was trying to check outside to see if she can escape before a man appeared behind her and covered her mouth, he spoke familary with her and told her that even if she is looking different that he will still recognize her but after two years of not seeing her brother can't she recognize his voice. She was shocked and happy to know that her second brother quingyuan came to save her, he took her waist and they flew away but a man with white hair came to block them and she noticed that he has the same eye as the bird and she also recognize him as the one her husband caught, interrogated and killed, she was wondering how he is still alive and that she shouldn't have begged for a softer death for him then, he says if her father and brothers can join him he will let them go but her brother refused and started fighting with him telling her her husband laid an ambush ahead and they just need to get far enough to see their men, her brother used poisons and arrow and was able to take his sister to the ml army, he said he was impressed that the ml could successfully teach her horse riding and she was angry that the horse only listen to her brother and ml. After he took her to the ml residence, he comforted her and said he was going back to join the fight and she pleaded with him to bring her husband back to her which he agreed to
I forgot to add that before the younger brother hit her in the flower banquet, she went to fish but couldn't afford the fees and since fishing were not meant for women she went to the pond to watch people fishing, she saw a hands man under a tree fishing but he only caught a small fish, she borrowed his line and caught big fishes and crabs and she explained how to fish to the surprised man after which he started fishing well too. When the bucket was filled up the man offered everything to her as thanks which she accepted unknown to her that both the ml and his younger brother was spying on Her, her servant asked what they should do and she said she wants to send it to her mother with some wine but she will say she bought the fish and crabs. That's when the younger brother came out and said that her servant is helping her to lie and he started commanding the servant who was kneeling down and begging for mercy, the FL was very angry and told her servant to stand up because only she has the right to order her and that even her husband doesn't have that right neither does the younger brother that was when ye weijun walks closer to her face and watches it closely looking for evidence that she is another person wearing a human mask of the original, that was when he hit her for further confirmation but was surprised to see the place swelling and red.
I don't understand the male lead part (for thr original novel) her husband is the male lead older brother no ?
This really is bad. I am angry at all the characters. Geez! the FL can't catch a break. And who are others to decide how she has to behave It's constant fighting over and over again to prove yourself. I kinda feel bad and kinda not coz FL isn't particularly nice and seems partially dumb. Agh! Idk anymore
