The Matriarch: Die Together? I'd Rather Become a Widow

Traditional historical romance + reborn to change fate + devoted husband + political intrigue and revenge

Shen Shu died after a scoundrel manipulated and tormented her for half her life, bringing ruin upon the entire General's household. In the end, she perished amid a sea of flames.

When she opened her eyes again, she was back on her wedding night, being pinned down and ravished. Her attacker was none other than the scoundrel's notorious, unhinged uncle.

Shen Shu's heart lurched. In her past life, she had done good deeds, yet died with regrets. She absolutely would not make the same mistake twice!

So she wrapped her arms around his neck and begged in a soft, fragile voice, “Shen Shu... has admired the Commander for a long time. Please, show me mercy...”

Everyone in the capital had heard of Shen Shu, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. She was a tigress of a general's daughter, with a few fighting skills to boot.

Yet the powerful Xiao Jingzhong flatly refused to agree. “My nephew's wife is too frail to care for herself. Without me, she probably couldn't survive.”

The shadow guards silently stepped back in unison and lowered their heads. “My lord, having a black eye isn't shameful. There's really no need to be so stubborn.”

They say Xiao Jingzhong is ruthless and vicious enough to make children stop crying at night.

Just like now, as he drives Shen Shu to tears, leaving her grinding her teeth in fury. “Xiao, have you had enough?!”

With bloodshot eyes, Xiao Jingzhong suddenly tightened his hold around her slender waist. “Darling, let me have my way for just a little longer, and I'll give you my life.”
