Biological parents desperately wanted a son, but ended up having several daughters and even lost everything they had. So they sold all of us. Although I signed a contract to be sold, I was fortunate to be taken in by a good family and found my true love. The wife of the good family taught me embroidery and I became the most famous embroiderer in Klury. I worked hard to support my true love in passing the imperial examination, eagerly waiting for him to fulfill his promise to marry me after he passed the exam. However, he abandoned me as soon as he became the top scholar, wanting to marry a high-born legitimate daughter. Blaine claimed to have fallen in love with her at first sight and asked me to let go. I knew he had climbed the social ladder and started to look down on me. But he didn't know that the noble lady was actually my younger sister who was also sold off like me...
Chapter 1
Blaine had passed the Official Selection Test and was this year's third-place scholar.
Dennis and Sharon cried tears of joy, burning incense and offering fervent prayers to their ancestors. They didn't forget to pull me aside, promising that once they reached Sester, they would ensure Blaine married me.
For the past three years, I had worked day and night selling embroidery to save up a hundred taels of silver, which allowed him to travel to Sester and take the Official Selection Test. During the year he was away, I tended to his parents tirelessly. Without me, Dennis would have passed away from his illness six months ago.
If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have lived to see this moment of honor. Blaine had achieved third place and is duty-bound to honor his promise to marry me.
However, Evan told me yesterday that Blaine had become a son-in-law of the Governor's family half a month ago and was engaged to marry Joshua's daughter. This news had already spread throughout Sester.
Evan, who also took the Official Selection Test in the capital, had placed second, while Blaine was third. After the results were announced, Evan returned home. But Blaine didn't come back. Instead, he sent a letter summoning Dennis and Sharon to the capital, without mentioning me at all.
Evan would never lie to me.
I gently pushed Dennis and Sharon's hands away and said calmly, "You should prepare yourselves. Blaine is getting married."
Dennis and Sharon held my hands tightly, their faces filled with concern and affection. "Of course, we have been dreaming of this day. We'll leave for Sester tomorrow so Blaine can marry you."
I looked around the humble, old house, my eyes landing on my small room. The red wedding dress I had painstakingly embroidered still hung on the clothes rack. Back then, I was truly happy, eagerly anticipating marrying Blaine, regardless of his success in the exams.
"Blaine isn't marrying me. He's marrying the Governor's daughter."
Dennis and Sharon were stunned. After a long pause, they stepped forward, staring at me in shock and disbelief. "That's impossible. It shouldn't be. How could that ungrateful son marry someone else instead of you? There must be some misunderstanding."
Dennis was so angry that he beat his chest and struck the table. "You will come with us to Sester tomorrow. The White family will demand an explanation for you."
I nodded. Looking at the spotless house, the result of my years of silent dedication and hard work, I knew I deserved an explanation.
