What The Warlord’s Wife Fights For Her Marriage is about
In the 16th year of the Republic of China, Shen Ruolan, the military governor’s wife, is forced by her mother-in-law Zhao Jinfeng to leave her marriage for bearing two daughters. Her husband Lu Jingchuan tears up the divorce paper and breaks the family rod in public, fleeing with his wife and daughters. Faced with clan persecution and cut-off finances, Shen Ruolan qualifies as a lawyer.
