The mother and daughter talked in the room for half an hour, until a maid came to report that the third young lady's things had been packed. Only then did Lin reluctantly let her mother beside her support her and leave.

After Lin left, Liu Tianshu sent away everyone around her and locked herself in the room. There was no sadness in her eyes, only deep ridicule.

Gu Jinyun is good-looking. He is the eldest son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, the nephew of the Empress Dowager, and calls the current emperor his cousin. Although he has made no achievements in his studies, he can live a worry-free life with the glory of his ancestors.

This was originally a rare and good marriage, and the reason why it fell on Liu Tianshu was due to his grandfather who was the Prime Minister and her good reputation.

In her previous life, Liu Tianshu had always been proud of this, but she never thought that just because of the news that the old marquis had died in the battlefield on the day of their wedding, she, the new bride, would become the unlucky star that brought death to her father-in-law.

At that time, she didn't know that the Gu family was a group of ruthless people, and what she saw was that the Marquisate would decline without the support of the old Marquis.

Gu Jinyun is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and the only thing he relies on is a little favor from the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. Although there will be no problem while the Empress Dowager and the Emperor are still around, he is doomed to decline in the future.

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was well aware of this. Although they regarded him as a jinx in their hearts, no one really said it out loud, so she was kept in the dark her entire life.

In order to revive the Marquis' Mansion, Liu Tianshu worked like a slave for the entire mansion, spent all her dowry, and even relied on the power of her grandfather's family to push the unaccomplished boys of the Gu family in front of the emperor, making them all hold high positions and the girls all marry into wealthy families, bringing great help to the Gu family.

She gave everything for the Marquis' family. While enjoying the connections of her grandfather's family, the scumbag Gu Jinyun and his family found all kinds of excuses not to consummate the marriage with her. In the end, on the grounds that she had no children in five years after marriage, they registered a child from a side branch as her legitimate son.

At that time, she realized that Gu Jinyun was deliberately keeping his distance from her, and thought that having a child around would help to relieve her loneliness.

She never thought that the child might be the illegitimate child of Liu Tian'ai and Gu Jinyun. She was asked to adopt the child just to give the child a legitimate identity.

In her previous life, she treated the child like a treasure and took great care of him. However, after Liu Tian'ai became a widow, Gu Jinyun suggested that she take the child in to keep her company as she had suffered a lot in her husband's family.

Since the relationship between husband and wife is not good, it would be good to have a younger sister from her natal family to accompany her. Liu Tianshu nodded and agreed without thinking.

At that time, Gu Jinyun had already established a firm foothold in the court. In addition, her grandfather was far away from the court, and her two uncles did not have the strength to compete with him. Two months later, Liu Tian'ai became pregnant and was directly promoted to a co-wife.

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion attached great importance to Liu Tian'ai's pregnancy, making her, the mistress of the house who had worked for the mansion for eight years but was still a virgin, a joke.

Without the love of her husband, she thought that she could still make ends meet since she was in charge of the household affairs and had an adopted child by her side.

It was not until then that he realized that the child he had loved dearly for three years was actually the child of Gu Jinyun and Liu Tian'er.

The truth was revealed and before she could even take revenge, Liu Tian'ai had a miscarriage. Everyone said that she was vicious and could not tolerate her concubine and unborn child.

God knows she hadn't done anything yet, but all the charges fell on her. The Gu family even divorced her on charges of jealousy, childlessness, and persecuting the descendants of the marquis's mansion, making her a laughing stock in the entire capital.

After eight years of hard work, she was rewarded with betrayal and a letter of divorce. Liu Tianshu was disheartened. She wanted to leave the Wuding Marquis Mansion with the little dowry she had left, but when she passed by the lake in the garden, she was pushed into the lake and lost her life.

When she woke up again, she found herself reborn during her nap today.

"Gu Jinyun, Liu Tianyi, in my last life, you two hid behind the scenes, and I was completely unprepared and fell into your trap. In this life, since I know your conspiracy in advance, let's play slowly and see who is better, you or me."

After Liu Tianshu finished speaking, she walked to the table, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and drank it slowly.

The tea had already gone cold, but Liu Tianshu didn't care at all. She even felt that the slightly bitter taste was more suitable for her current mood...
