The Lin family and the Yi family are old friends, and Yi Chongxuan's father and Lin Xuezhi's father are also partners in official circles, so both families are willing to arrange this marriage.
At the time of the engagement, Yi Chongxuan was leading troops to fight at the border, so he didn't know about this.
When he returned from his victorious battle, all the people in the capital went to greet the youngest marquis and witness the heroic demeanor of the national hero.
His appearance and demeanor amazed all the girls in the capital.
In addition to being the youngest marquis, he is also the most handsome man in the capital, and he is also a hero who defends his country.
Let me ask you, who doesn’t like a man like this
When Yi Chongxuan found out that the marriage his father had arranged for him was with Lin Xuezhi, the person he disliked the most, he was very angry.
He had met her twice as a child, and both times had been unpleasant experiences.
He felt that she was introverted, stingy, and physically delicate, and was not his type.
How can a woman like her be a good marquis's wife and the mistress of the house in the future
What he needs is a smart, capable, healthy, and generous wife.
Afterwards, Yi Chongxuan asked his father to cancel the marriage, but his father talked a lot about the powerful relationship with the Lin family and told him that if he didn't like her, he could just have more concubines in the future.
Marry a wife based on her family background and take a concubine based on your preferences.
Besides, the eldest daughter of the Lin family does not have a bad reputation. If the Yi family suddenly asks to cancel the engagement, it might lead to enemies.
Moreover, the girl whose engagement was broken off had her reputation ruined. How could the Yi family, which has always had a good reputation, do this
Lin Xuezhi, who was living in seclusion in her boudoir, was delighted when she knew that her future husband would be the Champion Marquis.
Because her mother died when she was young, she always felt that God was unfair to her and that she had a short life.
But ever since the marriage was arranged, she no longer had such thoughts and felt that God was good to her.
Yi Chongxuan is the god in her heart, and this god will become her husband.
Such happiness is the result of many lifetimes of hard work!
With the nourishment of love, she smiled more and more and her complexion became better.
She was looking forward to the god who would marry her when she turned sixteen.
However, when she was fifteen years old, her life changed drastically and she fell into an abyss of no return.
At that time, she had just turned fifteen and the marriage between the two families was already on the agenda.
In the season when peach blossoms are in full bloom, she is invited by Han Yanqiu, the eldest daughter of Duke Han of Korea, a famous talented woman in the capital, to attend a peach blossom party at her home.
It was this romantic affair that ruined her life.
It was on this day that the son of the Korean royal family, Han Yanqiu's brother, also invited the sons of officials in the capital to attend a poetry gathering.
The two siblings held a party in his family's Grand View Garden on the same day. Within the framework of feudal society, young boys and girls were allowed to run around in the same garden.
If there is no purpose, who would believe it.
But the girls who were invited didn’t know it would be like this. They just felt that they had to give face to Miss Han. After all, she was a famous talented woman.
So, everyone who was invited went.
Lin Xuezhi didn't want to go at first, but finally couldn't resist her second sister's lobbying and went with her.
But she never expected that there was a conspiracy against her.
She actually fell into the lake and was rescued by Han Ming, the second brother of Han Yanqiu, the most stupid and lustful man in the capital.
Han Ming is just a bastard of the Han family with no status.
He also lives a life of debauchery and has no knowledge or skills. He is the most useless young master in the Han family.
When poor Lin Xuezhi was rescued to the shore by Han Ming, her clothes were half undressed and she was seen by many young men and women.
Moreover, within two days, the news spread throughout the capital.
In this way, she completely lost her reputation and became a laughing stock in the entire capital.
Later, the Han family took the initiative to propose marriage, saying that they were willing to take responsibility.
Something unexpected happened. The grandmother, the only one in the Lin family who loved her, became angry and her blood pressure rose. She suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and became paralyzed in bed.
Later, Lin Xuezhi could not withstand the double blow and fell seriously ill.
Then, the Lin family took the initiative to cancel the engagement with Guanjun Hou, and finally, Lin Xuezhi dragged her sick body and hastily married Han Ming.
Originally, she should have married with great glory the handsome man Guan Junhou, the dream of every woman in the capital, but she did not expect that she would end up marrying the most useless and lustful bastard of the Han family.
This gap is extremely large.
Of course, Lin Xuezhi was not happy at all after she got married. Besides being uneducated, Han Ming was also a spendthrift. The most unbearable thing was that he liked to beat women.
If something goes wrong, it will happen to her.
All the other sons of the Han family are outstanding people, except Han Ming, who is useless.
After Lin Xuezhi got married, she was also looked down upon, ridiculed and mocked by others.
Later, the old Duke of Han passed away, and the eldest son of Han inherited the title, and then they began to discuss the issue of dividing the family.
Han Ming was given some meager property and was forced to move out of the Duke's Mansion.
After the family split up, he continued to live a life of debauchery, and he had already abandoned his wife and concubines at home.
Then he went to brothels every day and spent money like water.
The meager family fortune was soon squandered, and later he stole Lin Xuezhi's dowry and continued to squander it.
Later, Lin Xuezhi became more and more depressed and her health became worse and worse.
However, Champion Hou Yi Chongxuan married Han family's eldest daughter Han Yanqiu. They loved each other deeply and lived a happy life.
Later, after Han Ming had squandered all of his family fortune and Lin Xuezhi's dowry, he forced her to go back to her parents' home to ask for money.
When her grandmother was alive, she could still ask for a little, but since her grandmother passed away, she can no longer ask for a penny.
The mistress of the Lin family, her stepmother, finally showed a cruel face and scolded her for being useless, bringing shame to the Lin family, and affecting the reputation of her sisters.
Even her biological father no longer cared about her life or death, and would not even let her enter the Lin family's door.
She was completely rejected by the Lin family.
Seeing that there was no hope in life, Han Ming's concubines plundered the house and ran away.
Anyway, they are not girls from decent families and can still go out and find jobs again.
Afterwards, Han Ming and Lin Xuezhi finally lived a monogamous life, but their home was penniless.
Han Ming began to beat her and insult her every day, scolding her for not being able to make money and manage the household.
Because he no longer had any money to squander, he took pleasure in beating and scolding her.
Then one day, he actually started talking about his adult life while beating her.
He said he regretted it very much. Why did he obey Han Yanqiu's orders and act out this scene
Why should I marry the incompetent and in poor health eldest daughter of the Lin family? If I had married another woman, my life would not have ended up like this.
It was obvious that he was the one who squandered all his wealth, but he actually blamed all the faults on his wife.
He also said that he became so poor that he didn't even have a child, and it was all Lin Xuezhi's fault. He cursed her for being a chicken that couldn't lay eggs and was occupying the toilet without doing anything.
Lin Xuezhi smiled bitterly. It was obvious that he had lost his fertility due to excessive indulgence, but he actually blamed her for not being able to have children.
