Chapter 1723: I Don’t Even Know Why

After she bought the protective talisman, Ning Shu told 2333, “Go back to the system space.”

Upon her return to the system space, Ning Shu took a book off the shelf and began to read it. Afterwards, she used a sprinkler to water the flowers and organized the space. She then told 2333, “Let’s meet the entrustor for the next task.”

“Alright,” 2333 said.

A figure slowly appeared in the space. She was dressed in coarse linen, wore cloth shoes on her feet, and a wooden hairpin was tucked into her bun. Her face looked waxen and tired.

She was thin and had high cheekbones. She looked like an overworked peasant woman from an ancient era upon first impression.

Ning Shu narrowed her eyes to examine the woman more closely. She knew a little about fortune-telling based on facial features and this woman had a noble face. She was obviously very wealthy once.

The woman’s slightly clouded eyes surveyed the entire brightly-lit space: the polished floors, the potted plants sparkling with dew, the fresh and lovely flowers, the bookshelves full of books, and the beautiful sofa.

The woman pinched her whitened skirt with some restraint and took two steps back.

Ning Shu asked her, “Hello. Are you requesting a counterattack?”

“Yes. My name is Chen Ermei,” she said quietly. “Can you help me counterattack?”

“Yes, what is your wish?” Ning Shu asked.

Chen Ermei looked a little timid and was silent for a while before she said, “I want to take revenge on Bai Yiqiao. She ruined my life and I don’t even know why she did this to me.”

“And my husband…he defiled me.” Chen Ermei looked horrified and afraid as she spoke of her husband.

Ning Shu decided to see the storyline before deciding whether to accept the task.

Chen Ermei didn’t know why Bai Yiqiao disliked her so much. The truth was that Bai Yiqiao had been reborn.

Bai Yiqiao’s father was a scholar who had failed to pass the imperial examinations all his life. But being a scholar was still very impressive in a small, remote village.

And once you became a scholar, you didn’t have to pay taxes and levies.

Bai Yiqiao was born beautiful. She had fair skin because she didn’t need to work and wore beautiful clothes. In a crowd of village girls and peasant women, she stood out.

When Bai Yiqiao’s grandfather was younger, he arranged a marriage for her and her future husband was a hunter.

But Bai Yiqiao was too proud and naturally looked down on this man. She went against her engagement to travel to town and became a concubine for the son of a rich family.

It was a time of chaos. Fang Yong, who had been ditched by Bai Yiqiao, wanted to join the rebellion. But before he left, Fang Yong’s mother arranged another marriage for him. His new partner was Chen Ermei.

Fang Yong went to join the army shortly after his marriage. With his agile hands and archery skills, Fang Yong soon made his way up the military’s ranks. After the new emperor ascended the throne, Fang Yong was made a high ranking official.

And Chen Ermei was given the title of Madam Gaoming because of her husband’s honor.

Bai Yiqiao, who became a concubine, was framed by her husband’s legal wife and thrown out of the residence. Her legs had been broken as punishment and she had to beg for a living.

Bai Yiqiao saw Chen Ermei when Fang Yong returned to his hometown. The woman who was once inferior to her in every way was now dressed in brocade and fancy clothes, wore silver and gold, and was attended to by several maids.

Even the matriarch of the family who broke her legs acted very humble in front of Chen Ermei. When she saw Fang Yong in his official’s clothes, Bai Yiqiao was stunned. She never knew that Fang Yong could be so heroic.

This husband and all his glory became someone else’s. Chen Ermei had done nothing to deserve this, she just had good luck.
