◢ A wronged woman gets her revenge, though it takes ten years: the lady of the house x a rigid scholar who offends his wife from head to toe without realizing it | Faithful to each other, funny and sweet
Qin Zhixian, young mistress of the Song household, was dignified and proper, dutiful to her parents-in-law, and always put her husband first. Among the society ladies, she was known for being "virtuous and magnanimous."
When her parents-in-law fell gravely ill, she stayed by their side day and night, never changing out of her clothes.
When her husband took a concubine, she busied herself arranging everything.
After giving them her whole heart, all she got in return was Song Shouzhang saying, "You're being melodramatic," when she was sick with morning sickness.
And her parents-in-law, refusing to bend their household rules, made her stand by the table despite her discomfort and serve meals to the whole family.
Qin Zhixian closed her eyes and fainted.
When she woke, she discovered she had become Song Shouzhang.
-
Song Shouzhang thought he was dreaming. A nightmare, in fact.
He had somehow ended up in Qin Zhixian's body. Every day, he clutched his belly and vomited until he was dizzy, got up earlier than the rooster and went to bed later than the dog, and rushed around serving the whole family. Yet when he let his father's favorite tea cool by just a little, he was harshly scolded.
Song Shouzhang: "I'm suffering..."
Qin Zhixian: "You're being melodramatic."
◆ One-on-one romance, happy ending, both are each other's only partners
◆ The male lead does not take a concubine, nor does he intend to.
◆ The male lead is extremely patriarchal at first, but later becomes a champion of women's rights.
◆ The female lead does not suffer in silence. She gets her revenge, and it's immensely satisfying.
