[The proper summary]
Yun An was a volunteer chosen among thousands by the space time research institute. Simply planning to record the true historical events of the military revolt in the year nine hundred and sixty, she signed the consent form and stepped into the time machine. However, a peculiar thing happened during her travel through time, causing Yun An to be sent to an unknown place and time…
This dynasty was not recorded in earth’s history; perhaps Yun An had entered a parallel world.
This kingdom was known as the ‘Yan’ kingdom. It’s regime was similar to the middle period of the Ming dynasty. The economy was an unprecedented level of prosperity, and the men were regarded as superior to women.
The renowned Lin family of the Yan kingdom lived in luxury and extravagance. Their extreme wealth had already continued for three generations.
However, the famous Lin family faced an awkward problem at their third generation— the master of the family had no son.
Although the master of the Lin family had seven concubines, he had not gained a son for years. Master Lin eventually became too old to have any hope for a male heir.
The rise and fall of the Lin family now rests on the shoulders of master Lin’s only legitimate daughter: Lin Buxian.
The Lin family appeared to be powerful and untouchable, but it was actually surrounded with danger.
Their wealth was hankered after by powerful ministers and coveted by their relatives. Lin Buxian was a woman, but she had to step out often. Because of this, she was often denounced by the public. Eight merchants came to attend Lin Buxian’s twentieth birthday, but they heard the shocking news that her past childhood friend had already become the lucky son-in-law of a Minister, and he intended to take her as a concubine?
Lin Buxian made an announcement to the entire kingdom during her birthday banquet; the Lin estate is looking for a handsome son-in-law, to marry and live with the bride’s family.
[The fun summary]
Yun An, one of the top scorers in the college entrance exams, a good enough fighter to beat street hoodlums, found out that her girlfriend of four years had split to be with her best friend. Faced with the double betrayal of friendship and love, Yun An felt as if there was no longer a place for her on earth.
She decided to apply as a volunteer for the time travel project. She relied on her tough physique and profound historical knowledge to stand out from two hundred thousand applicants, but she did not expect that she would arrive in an unknown dynasty.
The silver money that she had brought with her was unusable here. The historical knowledge that she worked so hard to memorize was inapplicable too. Just as she was about to die from starvation, she heard that the Lin estate was holding a feast. However, she could never have expected that she would be giving herself away for trying to eat-and-run.
During their wedding night, Yun An confessed to Lin Buxian with her hands up: “I’m actually a woman.”
A trace of astonishment brushed the beauty’s eyes, but it was actually followed by a look of faint relief. She said quietly: “That’s fine too.”
Yun An learned later that Lady Lin had been engaged before, to a poor scholar who she had sponsored to success. But that scholar wedded the treasured daughter of a Minister for the sake of his career, and then he intended to take Lady Lin as his concubine instead.
Yun An: “So I’m actually your scapego… a cover-up cloth?”
Lin Buxian: “A marriage only in name; you’ll receive ten thousand liangs of gold.”
Yun An: “It’s a deal!”
Many years later…
Yun An: “Actually, I was just thinking about securing a long-term food ticket back then.”
Lin Buxian’s phoenix eyes glanced from the side. She seemed to be smiling: “Mm?”
Yun An shuddered at once, then she fawned: “Wife, you must be tired from reading accounts? This one will massage your shoulders for you?”
… …
Lin Buxian: “Yun An~ didn’t you say that… you’ll massage my shoulders?”
Yun An: “Hehe, wife has worked hard lately, this one will specially include the full package this time. Wife, let’s go to bed!”
