Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir

Shu Wan, an exceptional daughter from a feudal era, is transported a millennium into the future to become the new matriarch of the Fu family in the capital. Her nominal husband is away, leaving her to manage a notoriously rebellious son. Their initial encounter is confrontational; the son mocks her age and appearance, only to be swiftly subdued by Shu Wan's surprising strength. Their dynamic continues to be fraught with conflict, particularly concerning his dismal academic performance. Shu Wan is appalled by his low Chinese language scores, questioning his heritage. He retorts, calling her an academic failure, but is quickly silenced when Shu Wan effortlessly demonstrates her mastery of classical prose, revealing her to be a veritable "walking dictionary." Upon his unexpected early return, Fu Siyu anticipates domestic turmoil. Instead, he finds his son diligently practicing calligraphy with a perfect exam score, and his "timid" wife commanding attention in a striking gown. The most significant observation, however, is Fu Siyu's sharp reaction to another man's hand on Shu Wan's lower back, demanding that the touch cease. The son is not Fu Siyu's biological child.
