With a marriage certificate in hand, Shen Qingzhu marries into the marquis's household, where her husband is gravely ill and beyond saving.
He only hopes to live peacefully in the marquis's household. But his mother-in-law tells him, "Whether our main branch can continue depends on you," and sends him to his husband's younger cousin's residence: he is to conceive a child by him.
He becomes Pei Lingfeng's personal maid.
All he wants is to get along with Pei Lingfeng, secretly gather medicinal herbs, and find a chance to fake his death and escape.
But things gradually spiral out of control.
He gets pregnant with Pei Lingfeng's child. The man doesn't want the baby, so he runs away...
Pei Lingfeng had assumed that Xiaoman was merely a personal maid doing everything she could to get into his bed.
He thought she was deluding herself, never imagining that he would fall for her, step by step.
Just when he thinks they are in love with each other, he discovers her secret: she is already married, and she only wants to bear a child for her husband, who is sick in bed.
He refuses to let her have her way. After she gets pregnant, she leaves him.
But in the end, he still leaves...
Pei Lingfeng goes mad. He wants to drag him back, keep him imprisoned at his side, and make him his wife alone.
Both leads are male, and the top wears women's clothing. Before the bottom discovers the top's identity, the top is referred to as "she."
The top gets pregnant (no role reversal, it's magical pregnancy). A melodramatic story with a pregnancy-and-run plot.
