Yuzu In May

Qiao Jinniang's parents passed away the moment she came of age.

For the sake of inheriting a restaurant, she had no choice but to ‘recruit’ a husband who would take her family name.

Who knew that her husband, who looked like a banished immortal, was an ingrate? He snatched her child away and left behind a divorce letter.

Qiao Jinniang became the butt of every joke in Lin’an City. Seeing that her uncle was about to take her parents' blood, sweat, and tears for himself, the son of the Prefect of the Superior Prefecture wanted to take her in as a concubine.

However, a horse carriage sent from the Marquis arrived in Chang'an City. An old lady servant clad in an embroidered robe walked up to her and called her "Young Miss".

It was only then that Qiao Jinniang realized that she was the eldest daughter of the principal wife of Marquis Anyuan. Back then, when the marchioness gave birth to her, she encountered a robber. At that time, a jealous concubine switched out her daughter with the chef's daughter.

Therefore, a divorced female chef who had already given birth entered the capital. Everyone was waiting to see this real heiress make a fool of herself.

They were secretly guessing when the real heiress would be abandoned by the Marquis.

Yet, they failed to expect Qiao Jinniang to open up a restaurant in Chang'an using her amazing culinary skills. Even His Majesty showered her with praise. She was pampered by everyone in the Marquis' residence.

Those long-tongued women in Chang'an City said sourly, "So what if a woman gets pampered at home? She's long past the age of 18 and has already given birth. Who will marry her?"

The Marquis found Qiao Jinniang quite a few husbands. However, despite many marriages being in discussion, none of them went smoothly. 

As the marchioness's face was covered in tears, the fake daughter said she wanted to give Qiao Jinniang her husband instead.

Qiao Jinniang took the rolling pin and kicked open the Eastern Palace's main door. "Since you've already divorced me, why are you still ruining my marriage?"

A certain crown prince said, "How can we let the mother of the royal grandson marry someone else?!"

Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

Henyee

After Qiao Jinniang opened her eyes, she looked at Tong Yingying suspiciously and said, "Isn't Da Mian Lanling the tune "Lanling on the Battlefield''? Is there another Da Mian?"

Lu Chen applauded slowly and said, "The popular tune "Lanling on the Battlefield" has been adapted by the late emperor in Chang'an and is softer than the original one, and the dancers who perform the tune are mostly women, different from the brave and valiant Warrior Lanling in legend.

"Miss Qiao played it very well. Her performance is superb."

Qiao Jinniang breathed a sigh of relief. This was the only tune she was proficient in.

The zither teacher in school liked this tune the most, so Qiao Jinniang only learned this tune.

If she played any other songs, she might not be able to play them well. She was so familiar with this tune since she was a child that she could play it even with her eyes closed.
