Waking up from a deep sleep, Lin Yue found herself having transmigrated into a peasant's new wife, and to make matters more complicated, she was a replacement for a deceased wife. The husband, over a decade older than her, had already lost two former wives. It wasn't so much a marriage; she had been sold to the family by her unscrupulous parents. Her fate was out of her hands. Before her stood one, two, three, four children, like a line of burdens, all gazing at her with blurry and hopeful eyes. Lin Yue felt an enormous pressure, "Thanks to Yuewen Book Review Group for providing review support!"

The Family Head's original intention was to have Magistrate Ceng curry favor with Eunuch Li. A person of Eunuch Li's standing had considerable power in the palace, and currying favor with him was definitely advantageous. If it were the old days, the Family Head would have directly analyzed to Ceng Lu the threats and benefits of this matter. But now there was Quan An; in order to compete for status in front of Ceng Lu, the Family Head had no choice but to coax Ceng Lu into doing so. With his head full of straw, Ceng Lu only knew indulgence, eating, drinking, and merrymaking. If he was coaxed properly, he would cheerfully do anything. The Family Head and butler had followed Ceng Lu for quite some time, and they had brought him over from the main family; they inherently hoped that Ceng Lu would do well. If Ceng Lu could make headway in his official career, it would only benefit them. The greater the authority Ceng Lu held, the more they could rely on him.
