[This Novel]

The first time the imposing Prince Ying met Jiang Congfeng, she gave him a furious scolding, and he had no choice but to take it.

Later, a divorcée and a widower formed a second marriage. He thought a gentleman shouldn't fight with a woman, so he gave in to her little by little, eventually pampering her like a princess.

On the first night of their marriage, Prince Ying, unused to being touched by others, accidentally kicked his new wife out of bed. The furious princess consort kept her distance from him in bed from then on.

On the second night, Prince Ying lay awake all night watching his wife sleep curled up against the wall, wrapped in her quilt.

The third night...

The fourth night...

On the fifth night, after his wife fell asleep, Prince Ying quietly pulled away her quilt. In the middle of the night, she rolled right into his bed. When she woke the next morning, his wife looked apologetic, while Prince Ying remained perfectly calm.

A month after their marriage, they were still entirely innocent.

One day, Jiang Congfeng asked Prince Ying, "Your Highness, don't you want me to give you a son?"

Prince Ying fell silent.

Jiang Congfeng sneered. "So you think I'm too old? In that case, go find some young girl to have a child with. I'm done serving you!" With that, she slammed the door in his face.

Prince Ying's expression remained unruffled, though inwardly he was struggling with how to tell his wife that he had never done that sort of thing before...

PS:

1. A second-marriage household, with family squabbles at home, social obligations outside, and schemes and intrigue.

2. The male lead is a middle-aged virgin.

3. A doting romance, a doting romance, a doting romance: important things must be said three times. The heroine is a bit of a goof. Apart from her fair skin, pretty face, long legs, and a husband who dotes on her, she has almost nothing going for her. She has neither much skill nor much brains, so if that bothers you, read with caution~

Coming Soon: The Heroine's Goal Is to Become a Widow

[Blurb]

Ji Meijin was timid and afraid of dying. After she accidentally transmigrated, she decided to lie flat and simply live out her life in peace.

But her compromise didn't bring her a happy ending. The year her husband passed the palace examination and placed third, his family began to look down on her low birth.

She later learned that a princess had her eye on her husband, and that she, his humble first wife, would naturally have to be cast aside.

Ji Meijin thought He Anlan loved her, so she decided to take a chance. In the end, she gambled away her life.

When she opened her eyes again, she discovered that she had been reborn.

Ji Meijin nearly laughed out loud.

To hell with scholars and their great talents!

To hell with being afraid of death!

She had spent two lifetimes barely scraping by, only to die young both times!

This time, she was going to...

Find herself a reliable patron!!!

After considering her options, Ji Meijin settled on Li Liangchen, the Great General of the Western Pacification, who was supposed to die in battle before long.

She dreamed of a life of "rising in rank, growing rich, and becoming a beautiful widow."

Who knew...

This time, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were both so timid that whenever anything happened, they came to her in tears.

Ji Meijin was exhausted. Still, watching a beauty cry was better than dealing with a philandering man.

But...

One morning, she woke up in the arms of a strong man. Her hand rested on his broad chest, and before her eyes was a face of peerless beauty. A gentle, amused voice sounded by her ear: "My lady, your husband has returned."

Ji Meijin: !!!

PS: I want to write a lighthearted story. No need to take it too seriously.
