Description:

Chu Yi was reborn as the third daughter of the Duke of Chu’s mansion. As a concubine’s daughter with two older di sisters, logically, as long as she didn’t cause trouble and had a good relationship with her sisters, she could live a stable life.

Her elder sister was the most admired woman in the capital, with both talent and virtue, as well as exceptional beauty, which made two princes both admire her. Just when Chu Yi thought she would become the younger sister of the future queen, the two princes fought each other to marry her elder sister, and their battle turned bloody.

Later, her di mother feared that the fighting among the princes would implicate the Duke’s Mansion, so she sent the eldest sister to the household temple overnight.

Her second sister was much more cautious, but she didn’t want to learn any talents, didn’t go to any gatherings, didn’t care about food and drink, and even made excuses to avoid marriage.

Later, her di mother declared that the Duke’s Mansion would not keep a useless person, and sent her second sister back to her hometown farm overnight. Now, she was likely eating coarse food.

The next in line was Chu Yi.

Chu Yi: …

One was the king of scores ^[1]內卷, nèijuǎn, is slang for a fierce competitor and the other was a salted fish ^[2]someone who lets life pass them by, refusing to exert effort.. Both paths had been tried and failed by others. Chu Yi could only choose to surrender to the circumstances.

Mini Theatre:

Chu Yi lives by three principles of what not to do:

Stay out of the spotlight – Chu Yi believes the method of being wise but appearing foolish and obedient is the safest.

Don’t watch the fun – watching the fun is risky and you may very likely become one of those being gossipped about.

The most important thing is not to follow the example of the two sisters. Lying down and doing nothing is risky, and you need to be cautious when competing against others. The most important thing is to stay alive.
