The di mother had deep thoughts and schemes. The elder di sister had a fierce temper. The concubine-born elder and younger sisters – none of them were easy-going people.
Surviving in the Yang family was akin to walking on a tightrope, with one abyss to the left and another to the right.
Others envied her for her luxurious lifestyle, but little did they know how difficult it was, deep in the back quarters of a mansion, for a concubine-born daughter to take a single step. Her only wish was to be married to a good family, to have a few good acres of land to farm and to spend the remaining time in self-cultivation.
To gain the ideal life of her dreams, Seventh niangzi of the Yang family puts forward her best.

The stepmother was cunning, the elder sister had a strong temper, and the half-sisters were each far from simple; living in the Yang household felt like walking a tightrope, with abyss on both sides. Outsiders envied her life of fine clothes and abundant food, unaware that in the vast mansion, life for a concubine’s daughter was fraught with hardship. She only wished to marry a good man, settle on a few acres of fertile land, and live a life of study and farming… Striving for this ideal, the seventh daughter of the Yang family worked tirelessly.
Nanny Wang walked along the long corridors of Bai Fang Garden, her expression solemn. Sunshine reflected off the walls of the Yang residence, dazzlingly bright, warming the slightly faded red paint on the walls. The young maidservants lounged in twos and threes against the walls, cracking melon seeds and chatting idly. When they saw Nanny Wang, the clever ones stepped forward to greet her, while the timid ones shrank into corners, hoping she wouldn’t notice them.
The Yang family had been a prestigious household for centuries, with strict rules to follow. When the young maidservants had nothing to do, playing and wandering in Bai Fang Garden was a rare and delightful sight. Though strict, Nanny Wang never scolded them for it.
