The Shen Family Has a Wicked Daughter

My new novel, My Wife Is Silly and Sweet, is now underway. The beautiful, charming, and spirited eldest daughter of a marquis's household vs. the taciturn, cold-faced, and possessive young general. As the beloved jewel of the marquis's household, Nian Jinyu is lively and adorable, doted on by everyone. Yet she is bound by a verbal betrothal and must marry Gu Mingyuan, who lost a battle and the emperor's favor, and was left crippled and stripped of his title. Beneath the red wedding candles and phoenix-patterned curtains, Gu Mingyuan turned his back on his young wife, his eyes dark as ink. "If you are willing to marry me, my Gu family can afford to feed one more idler." Who could have guessed that his newlywed bride would boldly turn him around, puffing out her cheeks as she declared with utmost seriousness that she was no idler, but his wife? In the days that followed, this young wife, whom outsiders called an absolute fool, completely disregarded his wishes and worked tirelessly to carry out her policy of "curing his illness and having a baby," forcing the melon to ripen by twisting the vine. Hah. So good. Ever since that mysterious incident, he had believed he would inevitably sink into a swamp and never see the light of day again. He never expected the bright moon to fall from the heavens and into his arms. Having once embraced the light, he finally became trapped in a situation he could never escape. From then on, he sought neither fame nor fortune, neither wealth nor glory. All he wanted was that one person. The Shen family's third young lady, Shen Daijiao, is arrogant and domineering, and quibbles over every last detail. She is the number one wicked woman in Jinyang, someone no one dares to provoke, much less marry. The Lu family's young master, Lu Xiuyuan, is unmatched in talent and looks, with a refined temperament. He is every person's dream husband and the ideal son-in-law. One day, an imperial edict of betrothal bound the two together. The entire Lu family immediately wailed in despair. Was the emperor trying to wipe out their whole family? On the "day of universal celebration": Lu Xiuyuan wore wedding robes, his features handsome and refined, his lips red and teeth white. He looked like a figure in a painting. Shen Daijiao waited and waited. Lord Lu was so stiff and slow that she decided to take matters into her own hands. The next day, Shen Daijiao was sobbing as she held her slender waist. Which bastard had spread the rumor that Lord Lu was stiff and had no idea how to be romantic? Before Shen Daijiao married, every eligible man in the capital was on edge. Some even sent Lord Lu a banner to thank him for sacrificing himself for everyone else. After their marriage, Lord Lu's career took off as if aided by the gods. Everyone hoped Shen Daijiao would divorce him, regretting how blind they had been back then. A note before you start reading: Theme: Don't change yourself for someone else.
