Chapter 1
I was born at a time prophesied to be inauspicious, and I was extremely ugly in appearance. However, because I once saved a general's life, an engagement was arranged between us.
On the day when the betrothal gifts were presented, I saw that the name on the betrothal letter had been changed to my younger sister's. Just as I was about to ask, suddenly a series of floating comments drifted in front of my eyes.
[Here she comes. This vicious ugly girl is going to mention her life - saving grace again.]
[She looks like the legendary female demon. How dare she dream of marrying the general?]
[If it weren't for her meddling, the general wouldn't have wronged the younger sister last life and made her be the mistress in the shadows for so long. Fortunately, this ugly girl worked like a beast of burden for the general's family and finally exhausted herself to death.]
[Only after her death could the younger sister enter the general's mansion legitimately. It's also a good deed she did.]
I stared blankly at the floating comments in front of me, only feeling a buzzing in my ears.
In my previous life, in order to prepare the betrothal gifts for my fiancé, the general, I toiled day and night. I sewed clothes in a tailor - shop during the day and mended clothes for noble families at night. In the cold winter, my fingers were full of chilblains from the cold, and the festering wounds hurt so much that I could hardly hold the needle. Who would have thought that all my savings were taken by him to support Isabella, the widow.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day when General Leonard von Hohenzollern came to propose marriage. He looked at me with disgust on his face and said, "You should be content to be the general's wife for a lifetime. I'll only marry Isabella this life."
I remembered what the wizard had said. As long as I could break through the love tribulation, I could regain my original peerless beauty. This life, I didn't get angry, nor did I refute Isabella's full - of - holes lies. Because I knew clearly that this time I was no longer the ugly girl who was bullied by others. Without me, he would never become a general.
...
Today was the day when Leonard came to propose marriage. My mother carefully applied a thick layer of powder on my face, but it still couldn't cover up my natural ugliness.
After Leonard appeared at the door, my mother pushed me in front of him and said, "You two, as an engaged couple, get along well. Don't mind me."
A blush appeared on my face, but Leonard pushed me away and said in a stiff tone, "Emily, please behave yourself. I'm here to propose marriage to Isabella this time."
I was stunned for a moment, and a large number of floating comments instantly flashed in front of my eyes.
[Great! Love should be spoken out loudly, so as to save this ugly girl from being self - amorous.]
[If it weren't for the general's wisdom last life, I'm afraid the younger sister and the general would have to be together secretly until they died. This life, the general must be brave and marry the younger sister openly!]
Before I could react, I saw Leonard directly pass by me and hand the betrothal letter to Isabella, saying, "Isabella, I misrecognized the life - saving benefactor before. From now on, I only love you."
Isabella's eyes instantly turned red, and the floating comments boiled over. Then, they hugged each other without caring about anyone around.
Everyone around was stunned by this sudden change. My mother quickly stepped forward to separate the two and said, "Leonard, what are you doing? It was Emily who saved you back then!"
Leonard sneered, "Enough. You don't have to cover up for Emily. It wasn't her who saved me back then!"
At this time, the floating comments popped up again.
[The Su family is so shameless. In order to marry off this ugly girl, they even snatched the younger sister's life - saving credit. Even after the general knew the truth, they still dared to say brazenly that since they had been married for many years, they should just go on like this.]
[For the sake of the Su family's upbringing, the younger sister wronged herself for a lifetime. Now she can finally pursue true love openly!]
Influenced by the floating comments, Leonard's eyes became even more determined. He took Isabella's hand and rushed out without saying a word, only leaving a sentence: "I'll never marry this ugly woman in this lifetime!"
My mother let out a startled cry. My vision went black, and all the past events of my previous life quickly flashed through my mind.
Chapter 2
I grew up with Leonard since childhood, and I secretly loved him for ten years. Because I was born at an inauspicious time and was extremely ugly, out of inferiority, I buried this love deep in my heart.
After Isabella appeared, Leonard and I grew more and more distant. I originally thought they would get together naturally. Until one time, he was in danger in the forest, and I saved him. To repay the life - saving grace, he proposed to marry me.
I was overjoyed and wished to present all the beautiful things in the world to him. I even went against the family rules and pleaded with the family elders to recommend him to the army to get the position of a general.
After marriage, I was willing to spend my whole life taking care of Leonard's parents and handling all the household affairs for him. However, not long after, he secretly brought Isabella, the widow, into the general's mansion.
For Isabella's sake, Leonard didn't give me any household expenses for more than thirty years. All his salary was used to buy jewelry and gorgeous clothes for Isabella. Whenever Isabella had a need, Leonard would definitely meet it.
And I could only be busy in the tailor - shop during the day and mend clothes for noble families at night. I barely managed to support the family with my meager income and also took good care of his sick parents.
Whenever I asked Leonard to take out a part of his salary to subsidize the family, he would scold me with a cold face: "Do you have any sympathy at all? Isabella has lost her husband, and her life is already difficult. She has no money at all. If I don't give my salary to her, do you want to starve her to death?"
I could only swallow my grievances with tears in my eyes. Because back then, my mother only prepared a generous dowry for me. Although all this money was spent on Leonard, it was a fact that my mother was partial. Out of guilt, I endured again and again.
It was not until my mother was on her deathbed that she tearfully told me all the truth. It turned out that Isabella was not my mother's biological daughter. She was my father's illegitimate daughter. It was because my mother was kind - hearted that she raised Isabella.
And Leonard had known this for a long time. Even after Isabella's husband died, he quickly had an affair with her. The so - called posthumous child in her womb was also Leonard's.
After my mother accidentally discovered their affair, she was so angry that she fell ill. She only told me the truth on her deathbed.
I was extremely angry and wanted to seek justice for myself and my mother. But unexpectedly, I was drugged with a mute potion by Leonard and imprisoned in a dark room.
Isabella, wearing a gorgeous Western - style dress, stood in front of me, with tears in her eyes, and said, "Sister, even if you claimed my life - saving credit back then, the general likes me. If you're angry, just vent it on me. Please don't make a big deal out of it and delay the general's promotion."
No, it wasn't like this. I never claimed the credit! I looked at Leonard painfully and made a whimpering sound.
But Leonard frowned in disgust and said, "I've treated you well these years. If it weren't for your careful care of my parents and our childhood friendship, I should have applied to the royal family for a divorce from you long ago."
The posthumous child, who was carefully taken care of by me since childhood, even sneered beside me: "If it weren't for you standing between my parents, our family of three would have been reunited long ago. You're such a vicious and bad woman!"
Looking at the three of them hugging each other in front of me, I only felt a surge of blood in my throat. Finally, I was so angry that I died.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day when Leonard came to propose marriage. This time, Leonard wanted to change his life, and I also didn't want to be the beast of burden driven by him anymore.
I just wondered if, without me running around to build connections for him and without me taking meticulous care of his sick parents this time, Leonard could still be as smooth - sailing as in the previous life and sit on the position of a general without any worries.
Chapter 3
Watching this adulterous couple running out, my mother was extremely angry. She chased after them and dragged Isabella back, scolding, "Why did you steal your sister's credit? Don't you know how hard it is for her to find a good husband?"
My mother was so angry that her face turned red. Even so, she didn't lay a hand on Isabella. Who would have thought that Isabella suddenly let out a shrill scream, quickly squatted down, and hugged her head, begging for mercy: "Mother, don't hit me. It was my fault that I told the general the truth. But we really love each other. The general doesn't love sister. Even if they get married, they won't be happy."
Isabella spoke with a crying voice and teary eyes. Leonard felt so心疼 that he pushed my mother to the ground. My mother's forehead happened to hit the stone slab, and blood gushed out immediately.
Looking at my mother lying on the ground, I was extremely angry: "Leonard, this is between you and me. How dare you lay a hand on my mother! You clearly saw that Isabella squatted down by herself!"
Leonard sneered, "Isabella is not as vicious as you. Emily, you're not only ugly, but also have such a vicious heart." His eyes looking at me were full of disgust.
My heart ached. In the previous life, we were husband and wife for a full forty years, but in his eyes, I was such a person.
"Get out. My family doesn't welcome you." I was about to drive them out with a straight face when my mother suddenly grabbed me.
She shook her head at me, endured the pain, and stood up. She talked to Leonard with a pleading look in her eyes: "Leonard, Emily is really your life - saving benefactor. For the sake of the life - saving grace, you must marry her. I can add half more to the dowry."
At this time, the floating comments popped up again.
[I heard that this ugly girl was originally extremely beautiful, but she was cursed. She has to find true love to regain her beauty, and it seems that this true love is the general.]
[Poor parents all over the world. This ugly girl's mother has always remembered her daughter's inferiority. Even though this ugly girl is so ugly and has such a vicious heart, she is still willing to bow to the general for her daughter's sake.]
[Humph, isn't the younger sister also her daughter? This partial old thing!]
Hearing these words, I felt a bitter taste in my heart. So that's why, in the previous life, no matter how unreasonable my requests to my mother were, she would finally agree to me tiredly.
I came back to my senses and was about to stop my mother when Leonard sneered and shamelessly said, "Do you think I'll marry this ugly girl just for a little dowry? You need to add at least twice as much!"
He raised his head high, as if he had given me a great favor. In the previous life, with my dowry to make arrangements and with me toiling day and night to handle the household affairs, he could be promoted step by step in the army without any worries.
So in this life, even though he didn't want to marry me, he still coveted the large amount of money my mother left for me.
I looked at this man whom I failed to see clearly for a lifetime coldly, pulled my mother back, and said, "You're dreaming. My dowry has nothing to do with you, and I'll never marry you!"
Chapter 4
As soon as I finished speaking, Leonard's face instantly darkened. He sneered and said, "Besides me, who else would want you? If you dare to reject me, just wait to be an old maid for the rest of your life!"
Seeing that I remained unmoved, he softened his tone a little and explained, "I want your dowry not for myself, but for Isabella. She is also your sister. Aunt only prepared a dowry for you, but not for Isabella. I just can't bear it and am asking for it on her behalf."
"I'll give all the dowry to Isabella later. We'll hold a wedding in the village. It can also be considered as an explanation to you. But I'll only hold the wedding with Isabella."
Looking at the shameless Leonard in front of me, I was so angry that I laughed. Twice as much dowry as in the previous life, but all I could get was just a wedding, not even a proper title.
By then, Leonard could also justifiably leave his parents in his hometown to me to take care of. How shameless!
Seeing me laughing, Leonard thought I agreed. A hint of pride flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and was about to come in to move the dowry my mother had prepared for me.
I snorted coldly, picked up a broom, and regardless of my mother's阻拦, I was about to sweep them out.
Leonard and Isabella didn't expect me to do this. They were hit a few times before they reacted.
Leonard supported Isabella and stood at the door, roaring, "If it weren't for the fact that you're Isabella's sister, even if you came to me with a dowry, I wouldn't want you. Just wait and see. Let's see who in this village would marry you!"
I didn't even look at them and slammed the door shut heavily.
After they left, my mother lovingly stroked my face and said, "You've driven him away. Who will marry you in the future?"
I didn't refute my mother. I just tightly held the letter in my hand.
...
Soon it was the day when Leonard enlisted in the army. He put his arm around Isabella and walked up to me proudly, saying, "Emily, it's not too late for you to regret now. Soon I'll become a military general."
A hint of calculation flashed in Leonard's eyes, and he said, "If you return the dowry to Isabella now, I'll consider giving you a generous reward and hiring you and your mother to work as servants in my house to take care of my parents and Isabella. It can also be considered as my care for you as a fellow villager."
He looked down at me haughtily, firmly believing that the cold treatment these days would make me face the reality.
I sneered and said, "Leonard, don't be too happy too soon."
At this time, the floating comments popped up again.
[The general is about to seize the opportunity to join the army. With the memories of the previous life, he will surely rise rapidly in the military. Let this ugly girl regret it!]
[I remember that in the previous life, it seems that this ugly girl went to see a key person before the general's promotion. Without the help of this ugly girl this life, will there be any accidents?]
[Don't worry. This ugly girl is just an illiterate girl in the boudoir. What does she know?]
Looking at the sarcastic words in the floating comments and Leonard's proud smile, I wasn't angry. I just smiled faintly.
Half an hour later, the village head excitedly led the people from the army over and said excitedly, "Finally, someone from our village can join the army!"
Leonard was so excited that he even pinched Isabella's hand red. He rushed over quickly and was about to take the armor.
The next second, the village head pushed him away, and the people from the army seriously handed the armor to me and said, "Congratulations, Emily. I hope that after you enter the army, you can make great contributions to the country like your grandfather."
Chapter 5
I reached out and took the armor that glistened with a metallic sheen. A smile appeared on my ugly face.
In my previous life, if I hadn't married Leonard, this enlistment quota would have been mine. My maternal grandparents only had my mother as their child. After they sacrificed their lives for the kingdom, as their only flesh and blood, my mother received a lot of care from the royal family.
That's why I had a generous dowry and even an enlistment quota. It's a pity that in my previous life, all these became stepping - stones for Leonard's success. My mother and I ended up badly. One was so angry that she died, and the other was poisoned to death.
Thinking of this, my eyes couldn't help but turn red. The military officers thought I was too excited and quickly comforted me.
Just then, Leonard on the side rushed over angrily and shouted, "What are you doing? Why did you give my armor to Emily?"
"Is there a mistake? She's not my wife. This one beside me is!"
Leonard was extremely anxious, thinking that the military officers had mistaken the person. He almost rushed forward immediately to snatch the armor from my hand.
The military officers frowned and looked at Leonard in confusion. The village head immediately stepped forward and said righteously, "What are you shouting about? It's Emily's business to enlist in the army. What does it matter to you?"
"After all, this quota was brought by her mother. What's the matter with you chattering on and on here?"
The village head looked at Leonard with disdain, not understanding why he had brought Isabella here.
Leonard waved his hands excitedly and said, "Isabella is also from the Su family. Now that she's with me, why can't I have her quota?"
"We've already discussed it. Even if Emily has a quota, I should have one too."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, as if the military officers and I had colluded to withhold his quota.
The floating comments instantly became lively.
[It must be this vicious ugly girl's doing! I was wondering why she didn't make any noise after being jilted. So she was waiting here!]
[Damn it! If this ugly girl's scheme succeeds and the male lead can't enlist in the army, the younger sister won't be able to be a general's wife. Everything will be ruined!]
Seeing this, I couldn't help but sneer. So Leonard knew that in the previous life, this enlistment quota was obtained by me. However, he thought that all the daughters of the Su family had such an opportunity. So in this life, he didn't hesitate to choose Isabella. Anyway, no matter which one he chose, he could enlist in the army. Why not choose the one with outstanding looks?
I could guess Leonard's thoughts. Thinking of this, I sneered sarcastically.
Before I could speak, the village head looked at Leonard speechlessly, sizing him up from head to toe as if he was seeing him for the first time, and then clicked his tongue and said, "Leonard, Leonard. How come I never found out that you're so shameless before?"
"This quota was brought by Emily's mother. What does it have to do with the Su family? To put it bluntly, it's like a dowry from Emily's mother, and there's only one quota. Naturally, she'll leave it to Emily."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people immediately surrounded the entrance of the village and pointed at Leonard.
"How shameless! Why didn't we see what kind of person Leonard is before?"
"It's the Su family's quota, but he, an outsider, actually reaches out to ask for it."
Amid the discussions of the crowd, Leonard's face became even darker. Finally, he couldn't help it anymore and roared.
Chapter 6
"Isabella is also her daughter. Why not give it to Isabella but to this ugly monster?"
"Letting such a person enlist in the army. Do you want her to scare the enemy to death with her face?"
Leonard mercilessly slandered my appearance in front of everyone. Everyone present frowned, but only the floating comments echoed Leonard.
[That's right. She's so ugly. If I were her, I would have drowned myself long ago. How dare she snatch the male lead's quota? If she delays our younger sister's happiness, I'll complain about this ugly monster a hundred times!]
[This vicious ugly girl doesn't even look at whether she deserves it or not. She still wants to enlist in the army. The male lead's quota will always be the male lead's. Even if she plays tricks, she can't snatch it!]
[The younger sister's mother really didn't do enough. Why didn't she get rid of this mother - daughter pair together back then? That old woman even said she admired our male lead, but she still doesn't give the quota to the male lead until now. How damned!]
Seeing the floating comments start to attack my mother, I wished I could tear them to pieces.
Leonard was still complaining non - stop. I sneered and said directly, "Don't you know why not give it to Isabella?"
"This quota was exchanged with my maternal grandparents' lives. Why should I give it to an illegitimate daughter?"
"Don't you recognize your own identities?"
Leonard and Isabella instantly froze in place. Isabella tugged at Leonard's sleeve and asked, "Is what she said true?"
Leonard didn't know how to answer. He knew that Isabella was an illegitimate daughter, but he thought this quota belonged to the Su family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so arrogant before enlisting in the army.
Thinking that he couldn't enlist in the army and his future would be ruined, Leonard collapsed and shook his head frantically.
"No, it shouldn't be like this. I'm the male lead, and this quota should be mine."
"I'm the one who should enlist in the army this time. This armor is mine. I'm the general. I'm the general!"
After saying that, he rushed at me like a madman, trying to snatch the armor from my hand.
"Give my quota back to me. This armor is mine!"
The military officers immediately reacted and separated Leonard from me.
Only then did the village head see clearly what Leonard had done, and he stared at him with wide eyes.
He suddenly slapped Leonard several times and said angrily, "Are you out of your mind? Let me wake you up! You have big dreams for other people's things."
"We all know that Isabella is the Su family's illegitimate daughter, and you still want to help the illegitimate daughter snatch the dowry of the legitimate wife?"
"I think you're really crazy!"
"If you weren't so lustful and didn't covet Isabella's beauty and had married Emily honestly, this quota might really have been yours."
"But you chose beauty and still want a future. I think you're really crazy!"
Chapter 7
The village head made it very clear, and the people around also knew Isabella's identity. Strange looks and merciless sarcasm rushed towards Leonard and Isabella like a tide.
Isabella looked at Leonard tearfully and said, "Didn't you say you could definitely enlist in the army?"
"Please talk to them and let them allow you to enlist, okay? You said that as long as you enter the army, you can become a general."
"I... I'm already pregnant with your child. If you can't become a general, what shall we do?"
Hearing Isabella's words full of unwillingness, I frowned. The people around also looked at Isabella.
The floating comments started to find a new partner for their younger sister.
[If the male lead can't become a general, he can't give the younger sister a better life. It's better to let the second male lead take over!]
[Anyway, the second male lead is the son of a wealthy merchant. He has plenty of money and can definitely support the younger sister and the child in her belly.]
The floating comments started to point fingers and guide Isabella on how to get together with the second male lead.
I sneered. Isabella was always so greedy. In the previous life, she didn't like Leonard, who was poor and even had to borrow money for the betrothal gifts. But she still pretended to be generous and give him to me.
After the husband Isabella carefully chose died, Leonard had gained some status. The man was willing, and the woman was also interested. Since Isabella saw that Leonard was no longer the poor boy he used to be, she naturally happily got together with him.
From beginning to end, I was the only one who got hurt. Now, in order to make Leonard become a general, Isabella had an intimate relationship with him early on and even got pregnant with his child.
Maybe she just wanted to tie down this potential stock that was about to soar. But she didn't expect that this potential stock couldn't rise rapidly as he said, and there was even a risk of falling.
Although Isabella stupidly gave up her body, she still had basic judgment and knew it was time for her to withdraw.
Unfortunately, Leonard wouldn't fulfill her wish. After Isabella said she was pregnant, a look of ecstasy first flashed across Leonard's face, and then it turned irritable.
I knew that he was thinking of the child in the previous life. Thinking of the so - called "posthumous child" in the previous life, my eyes became dim.
Chapter 8
The floating comments also remembered the "posthumous child" and started to discuss whether to abort this child.
[I wonder if the second male lead would be willing to be the step - father. Anyway, this child didn't make the younger sister's life better in the previous life. It's better to abort it directly.]
[No! What if the male lead becomes successful in the future? Keeping this child might still be an opportunity to get back with the male lead. Our younger sister should make two - handed preparations!]
[That's right. I also think it's better to keep the child. Anyway, the second male lead likes the younger sister so much. As long as the younger sister says the child is his, the second male lead will definitely believe it.]
[It's also a blessing for the second male lead to be with the younger sister for a while.]
Listening to the arrogant remarks of the floating comments and looking at Isabella, who was crying pitifully in front of me, I finally couldn't help but sneer.
While the floating comments were discussing, Leonard grabbed Isabella's hand and said seriously, "Isabella, I think Emily's mother treats you quite well. Go back and talk to her and ask her to give this quota to me."
"At most... at most, I'll marry Emily."
Leonard said with a hideous face and in pain.
Isabella didn't expect Leonard's solution to be like this and was stunned for a moment.
But I thought Leonard was extremely ridiculous. He still thought that marrying me was an act of grace and a great reward for me.
I sneered and said, "Leonard, do you think you can marry me just because you say so? Why should I marry you? Do you want me to raise your illegitimate child?"
The floating comments were so angry that they seemed to be smoking from the seven orifices.
[I declare that this useless guy isn't the male lead. He still wants to marry this ugly monster after being reborn!]
[Look, this ugly monster doesn't seem to be that ugly anymore. Does she really have no feelings for the male lead at all? Will this quota return to the male lead's hands?]
Looking at the words in the floating comments, I couldn't help but touch my face. Although I couldn't see my own appearance, from the surprised expressions of others, I found that my face seemed to be really better - looking than before!
It was only at this moment that I finally believed what the wizard said. It turned out that Leonard was my love tribulation. As long as I broke through this tribulation, my appearance would naturally return to normal.
Leonard also stared fixedly at my face and said, "Emily, I don't care what sorcery you used to make your face less ugly, but this quota must be mine. Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
His expression became hideous. For a moment, I seemed to have returned to the previous life.
But soon, the village head mercilessly slapped him again.
"How come I never found out that you're so arrogant before? You still want to attack the military officers and make others end up badly. I think you're really crazy!"
The village head slapped the unrepentant Leonard one after another.
And I ignored Leonard and tightly held the armor in my hand, making an appointment with the military officers to set off the next day.
Leonard looked at me unwillingly, and even Isabella beside him looked at me resentfully.
Chapter 9
I returned home with the armor. Before I even reached the door, my father rushed towards me angrily. He raised his hand to hit me, but I nimbly dodged, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Why do you have to snatch that quota from your younger sister? How can you let her face others in the future?" He was full of anger, as if I were the chief culprit.
I sneered and said, "This quota was exchanged by my maternal grandfather. What does it have to do with your illegitimate daughter?"
My father didn't expect me to know about this. After his well - concealed secret was exposed, he immediately flew into a rage.
"How can you talk like that? She's your younger sister. How can you call her an illegitimate daughter?"
I smiled sarcastically. Before I could say anything, I saw him wave his hand casually and say indifferently, "Forget it. I'm too lazy to argue with you. Tomorrow, you go and tell the military people to give this quota to Leonard. What's a girl like you doing enlisting in the army?"
"Besides, Leonard has promised to hold a wedding for you. That's already good enough for you. Otherwise, you'll never get married in your life."
Listening to his words, I was almost laughed out of anger. This was my father. Without asking anything, he stepped on me and even wanted to give my quota to someone else.
Seeing me smiling, my father thought the matter was settled and nodded in satisfaction. At this time, my mother came out.
"Emily, have you decided to enlist in the army?" She looked at me with some concern.
I nodded seriously. My father was dissatisfied that I ignored him and even more dissatisfied with my answer.
He gave me a cold look and said, "Where are you going? The most important thing for you now is to find someone to marry. Even if it's not Leonard, you can't stay at home."
"I can't have such a disgraceful daughter in the Su family."
Hearing my father's words, Isabella, who was standing at the door, couldn't hide the smile in her eyes anymore.
My mother ignored them and just sighed.
"It's good. After enlisting in the army, you'll have a guarantee. Then I won't have to worry about you."
None of us paid attention to Isabella and my father at the door. We discussed everything and just waited for the next day to come.
Early the next morning, I packed my luggage and was ready to set off. But my father locked the courtyard gate with a padlock.
He didn't even look at me and said理所当然ly, "I've already sent Leonard and Isabella to enlist in the army. Just stay at home obediently. Now that I think about it, you're not that ugly anymore. You should be able to get married."
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to go back to his room to sleep. I was so angry that I wished I could smash all the things to pieces.
Just as I was about to take an axe to break the padlock and go out, my mother came out.
She suddenly slapped my father and casually threw down a piece of paper. She said angrily, "Let me tell you, Mr. Su. You can treat me however you want on weekdays, but you can't treat my daughter like this!"
"This quota belongs to my family. It has nothing to do with you. You want your illegitimate daughter and that brute to snatch my daughter's quota. You're dreaming!"
"Let me tell you, I can't live with you anymore. From now on, I'll live with my daughter!"
After saying that, she picked up the luggage she had packed, took all the money of the Su family and my dowry, took out a key from somewhere, and opened the door.
Looking at the flat road and my excited - looking mother, a surge of pride welled up in my heart.
At the entrance of the village, my mother and I saw Leonard and Isabella with their luggage, entangled with the military officers with unwilling looks on their faces.
Under their angry gazes, my mother and I got on the military carriage and stepped towards a new future from then on.
As for Isabella, she didn't get together with the so - called son of a wealthy merchant as the floating comments had expected. After all, this was reality, not a novel.
They could only continue to be entangled in this land until they grew old.
