My name is Chu Anning, and by the time you hear this name, I was already on my way to the execution grounds.
I remember when I was very young, the Chu Family was one of the most prominent in Ning City. My mother, a very proper and dignified woman, had been diligently doing everything within her role since the day she married my father.
Though I was young, I've heard more than once in my memories that my mother was an exceptionally outstanding wife.
My father loved my mother. In my recollections, my mother had told me more than once that my father's love for her was profound.
I didn't care to delve into whether my mother's words were true or not; that wasn't important. What mattered was that my father indeed couldn't live without her.
My mother always told me that I needed to learn how to control a man's family for him, that this was a skill girls of my standing absolutely needed to master.
And I, I would become a lady of a prominent household just like her.
