This Maid Is a Little Strange

Synopsis:

Recently, the Sixth Miss of the Duke's residence had been puzzled by something, so she went to ask her personal maid.

Sixth Miss: "Why have you been so quiet lately? Are you in a bad mood?"

Sixth Miss: "Why have your shoulders gotten so broad lately?"

Sixth Miss: "And haven't you grown a bit too tall? Yet your chest hasn't grown by even half an ounce."

Sixth Miss cried out in horror: "Why have you... grown... an Adam's apple?! Wait... why have you grown a beard, too?!" The maid remained silent.

The Sixth Miss threw herself from the seventh-floor pavilion on a whim.

"My lady!!!" The maid's voice was hoarse and deep, like a man's.

On their wedding night:

The shy bride clutched the quilt.

The groom's expression was indifferent. He yanked the quilt away and said coldly, "Get up! Go cry in the corner! You can't sleep until you cry properly!" So the bride cried all night while the groom slept peacefully. The bride's father was heartbroken: "You little bastard! I treasured my daughter for so many years! You snuck in here disguised as a woman, fine, but after you got what you wanted, you treated her with such contempt! Even if I die and go to the underworld, I won't forgive you!!!"

This is a story about a male protagonist who disguises himself as a woman, then disguises himself as a man to sit the imperial examinations and take revenge... only to unexpectedly receive help from the female lead...

P.S. The female lead has a calm, easygoing personality... She doesn't get angry or upset, so don't fret over her being bullied. She's a laid-back, Buddhist-style beauty who believes that taking a small loss can be a blessing.

P.P.S. This is a romance novel, pure, sincere, and delicate, like a slow-flowing stream. It focuses on the emotional entanglements between the two. All the background and setup are there to prepare for the romance.

Title: I Spoil My Wife into Becoming a Villain

Blurb:

The First Chancellor's wife was not only breathtakingly beautiful, but had spent her whole life treating people with kindness and propriety. She was gentle, refined, virtuous, and well-versed in the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, as well as the Lessons for Women and Inner Instructions. She was also enthusiastic about finding concubines for her husband.

Every colleague at court envied him.

The First Chancellor was a proud, awkward romantic with an aversion to emotional infidelity. What he couldn't stand most was his wife's constant attempts to find him concubines.

So he brought home some random courtesan, pretended to be affectionate with her in front of his wife, and deliberately neglected his wife in the hope of making her jealous.

Later, his wife was poisoned and died. The First Chancellor was so grief-stricken that he followed her in death.

Reborn, he discovered that his wife had already been poisoned, and there was no cure. The only way to break the curse was for his kind-hearted wife, who had spent her whole life swallowing her anger and going against her own wishes, to finally vent her pent-up rage!

From then on, the First Chancellor went all out spoiling his wife, turning her into a domineering, willful, shrewish villainess who did whatever she pleased!

At first:

Wife (timidly): Husband~ I can't play a villain~

The First Chancellor: Good girl, slap that little vixen and see. Use as much force as you would when hitting your husband~

Later:

After that slap, his wife felt great...

Later still:

Spy's report: Reporting to Your Excellency! Today, Madam cleaned out the capital's three biggest gambling dens, offended the leaders of the Aolong and Feihu strongholds, beat the madam of the Wanhua House black and blue, openly talked back to the Crown Prince's personal attendant, and flirted with six handsome men...

The First Chancellor, checking the bills as he spoke: Those are all trivial matters. I'll take care of them. What matters most is that my wife is happy...

Wait, what did you say she flirted with?
