A Widow, Her Unborn Child, and Her Second Marriage to a Young Scholar

Widow remarries while pregnant / older woman-younger man / five-year age gap

[Cool, delicate widow × black-bellied, straightforward scholar]

[Making money, preparing for the imperial exams, and raising a child]

Zhou Mingwan becomes a pregnant widow after her husband dies, and is repeatedly harassed by hooligans.

The young scholar Pei Hanzhang kindly drives them off, but gets caught up in gossip as a result.

Overwhelmed by public criticism, the two decide to marry.

Zhou Mingwan thinks the young scholar is rigid and honest. Only later does she discover just how bold he can be, making her blush and her heart race.

A little scene

After a difficult delivery, Madam Zhou cannot produce milk.

Too weak to endure the midwife's relentless hands, she cries out again and again, “It really hurts so much. I don't want to nurse anymore.”

Nearby, Scholar Pei holds the baby, flustered and at a loss. He hurriedly agrees, “Forget it, forget it. I'll go find a ewe and get some milk for the baby.”

The midwife calmly continues what she is doing. “If you can't afford it, don't waste your money. If you think this old woman's hands are too rough, there's another way. Scholar Pei can use his mouth, and spare Madam Zhou the pain.”

Scholar Pei asks urgently, “What way? I'll do it.”

The midwife gathers her things and tosses out one last remark as she leaves.

At her words, Scholar Pei and Madam Zhou stare at each other, their faces bright red.

The heroine has had sex before; the hero has not. The heroine is pregnant when she marries the male lead for the second time.

They call each other siblings, but they are not related by blood.

A note to readers: 1. There will be everyday life with a child, family matters, and a quiet, ordinary life.

2. Thank you so much for your love and support!

Blurb: A widow remarries / age gap / size difference / an old flame rekindled

[Voluptuous beauty × stiff traditionalist, ages 27 and 35]

[Widowed florist × head of a corporate group]

After giving birth, Zhou Man wakes up and sees a tall, sturdy man standing by her hospital bed. Her eyes quickly fill with tears, and she coquettishly begs him for comfort.

She instinctively assumes that Zong Zeshan's complicated expression and stiff movements are because he was frightened when she nearly bled to death giving birth.

After she is discharged, Zhou Man, whose memories are muddled, keeps cuddling up to Zong Zeshan. She even boldly asks him for kisses and to carry her like a princess time and again.

Whenever he hesitates or makes excuses instead of doing what she asks, Zhou Man's eyes immediately turn red. She stubbornly stays put, looking determined not to give up until she gets her way.

*

By the time of the baby's first birthday party, Zhou Man suddenly regains all her memories. She also remembers nearly a whole year of passionate nights spent entangled together.

Zhou Man never imagined she would be so brazen after losing her memory, acting spoiled and throwing tantrums at Zong Zeshan.

The most surprising part is that the usually stiff, old-fashioned Zong Zeshan lets her get away with everything.

*

A little scene:

Zhou Man sits sideways on Zong Zeshan's lap, her long legs wrapped around him and her fingers clasped behind his neck. She sweetly coos, “Hubby, give me a kiss.”

Zong Zeshan's gaze is dark and conflicted. “Get down. Sit properly.”

Zhou Man thinks he is too embarrassed to be affectionate with her in front of others. She gives a little huff, then leans in and kisses his thin lips.

Once she gets what she wants, Zhou Man gets up before Zong Zeshan can react, muttering, “Such an old fuddy-duddy, always saving face.”

The heroine has had sex before; the hero has not. The main couple each have one child.

The heroine seems delicate, dignified, and well-behaved, but in reality she is bold, loves passionately, and is a flirtatious troublemaker.

The hero seems stiff, old-fashioned, and disciplined, but in reality he is all talk and no action, a pure-hearted man who yields to love.

A note to readers: 1. A story written to indulge my personal tastes.

2. There will be everyday scenes with a little one.

3. Thank you so much for all your support and love!
