The Rough-and-Ready General’s Wife Is Both Proud and Softhearted

Jiang Muyun never imagined that her stepmother would settle her marriage with just a few casual words.

She is to marry Huo Changyuan, the Dingbei General, rumored to have a foul temper, to have beaten a man to death, and to bring misfortune to his wives.

On their wedding night, when her veil is lifted, she freezes.

How can the boorish brute of the rumors have such a face?

Huo Changyuan freezes too.

How can the supposedly unloved legitimate daughter of the Duke's household be so much prettier than the rumors said?

“I am Jiang Muyun, your wife. I pay my respects, husband.”

“Huo Changyuan, your husband.”

That night, he gives her the bed and sleeps on the couch himself.

Later, she curls up in his arms every night, while he counts sheep.

After that, she begins to suspect he has a hidden ailment.

At last, the rugged general can take it no longer.

“My lady, I'll prove it to you right now.”
