Going VIP on July 11, with an extra update that day. Thank you for your support!
[Main story complete]
[Angsty melodrama, not a wish-fulfillment story. Best suited to readers who enjoy seeing the shou suffer, and who aren't solely here for the gong to suffer and chase after his wife.]
[Blurb One]
Her husband of three years brought home a beautiful young man from outside.
Watching the two of them act so intimately, Jiang Mengzhen felt disheartened. His relationship with Qi Heli had never been good. Were they destined to become nothing but a resentful couple?
The man once betrothed to him had been the refined and gentle eldest son of the Qi family.
Sadly, deep love does not guarantee a long life. The eldest son died young, and Jiang married his younger brother instead.
On their wedding night, Qi Heli gazed at him intently and said, word by word, "Everything my brother could do, I can do too."
Those words still rang in his ears, yet a new lover had already arrived.
[Blurb Two]
Buddha says the human heart has five poisons: greed, anger, delusion, arrogance, and doubt.
Qi Heli felt he had them all, no wonder he was sinking into a sea of misery.
There are two kinds of sorrow in this world: not getting what you want, and getting what you want.
Qi Heli once thought that having Jiang Mengzhen meant he needed nothing more.
But who knew the human heart could never be satisfied?
Even after winning the beloved who shone like a white moonlight, he still felt utterly miserable.
When love reaches its height, it begins to fade. Now, I truly regret having loved so deeply!
Qi Heli had had enough of Jiang Mengzhen repeatedly polishing the colored-glass lamp his brother had given him.
The day the lamp shattered, Qi Heli left home.
Half a year later, he returned with a young man who loved him wholeheartedly.
You have an old flame, and I have a new love. Is that the only way to make things fair?
[Blurb Three]
When Jiang Mengzhen married him, he brought with him half the generations-old wealth of the Jiangling Marquis's household.
When Jiang Mengzhen left him, he had only two carts of luggage.
One of them was filled with pawn tickets.
Thinking of the military funds that had fallen into his lap, Qi Heli finally understood what he had lost.
"Can't you stay?"
"Do you expect me to stay and watch your new wife walk through the door?" Jiang Mengzhen smiled. "You should be happy. Congratulations on finally finding someone who loves you wholeheartedly."
Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Qi Heli suddenly realized he had been neglecting what mattered for what did not.
All he had ever wanted was Jiang Mengzhen.

[Coming-of-age / prickly puppy-like gong / living in his brother's shadow / illegitimate younger gong x a stunning beauty of wealth and refinement / gentle and frail / breathtaking shou like white moonlight]
[The relationship arc goes roughly like this: first the gong suffers, then the shou suffers, then the gong chases his wife to the crematorium.]
[Important: This is fundamentally an angsty melodrama, not a wish-fulfillment story disguised as angst, with a string of reversals, face-slapping, and a scumbag gong getting what he deserves. The chase-to-the-crematorium arc is not the main focus. If you don't enjoy watching the shou suffer and only want to see the scumbag gong suffer while chasing his wife, please think carefully before reading.]

The side couple gets plenty of melodrama too:
When An Zhiyuan was young, someone once read his fortune:
"A golden-scaled qilin is no creature of the pond; only the washerwoman recognizes the young lord. Once glory comes, noble titles will follow, to repay the meal of kindness from days gone by."
It was said that a benefactor was written into his destiny, and that all the honors, humiliations, rises, and falls of his life would depend on this person.
An Zhiyuan never knew who this benefactor was,
until one day, when his stepmother locked him in the woodshed and hunger made him dizzy, Li Qingluo, the wet nurse's daughter, brought him a plate of cold rice.
Wu Xichun thought he had married the man of his dreams, but how could he have known?
As the youngest son of the Earl of Wuyang, he was merely An Zhiyuan's stepping stone to power.
From the moment An Zhiyuan picked up the little cat Wu Xichun had found, everything had been a calculated scheme.
It was laughable that he only understood when a pregnant woman came to his door...

[Previously titled The Divorced Husband. It also has a more literary title, A Dream of Huaxu on a Pillow.]
[The setup is roughly like Jia Huan marrying Lin Daiyu... (No, wait!)]
[Still melodramatic and angsty, with an old-school romance-focused style. The main focus is love, not career. Read with caution!]
[It's a fictional setting, so official titles and customs work however I say they do. There's no point in checking the details. Read with caution!]
[Men can marry men, and men can have children. The setting is similar to stories featuring male pregnancy. Pregnancy and childbirth warning. Read with caution!]
[Contains extremely traditional domestic power struggles, including conflicts between legitimate and illegitimate children, wives, and concubines. Read with caution!]

After the Engagement Was Called Off, the Scum Top Fell for the Swan
In fact, I find the attack method very confusing. Just, do you want to be with Shou? It feels like you bowed your head and admitted your mistake. If you want to have a good life with him, you shouldn't continue to hurt him and torture him. And since he decided to continue hurting him, he had to be prepared to give up on him. After all, no one owed him anything, and he was not a masochist, so he stayed and let him abuse her every day. As a result, Shou expressed that she wanted to take a concubine for him, and he was angry and felt that he had been abandoned. Just, can you stop being so twisted? Do you deserve to be abused and hurt by you? Does Shou have to prove his feelings for you by being willing to be hurt and insulted by you? This is too ridiculous. Moreover, aren't you the one who keeps away from feeling? I was thinking that it was you and your mistress who hugged each other, it was you who insulted and hurt you, and it was you who treated her with contempt and indifference. Good guy, now that you are no longer so despicably masochistic, are you still dissatisfied? Why are you so big-faced? With all the good things in the world being taken over by you and all the rights being yours, you have to "suffer from your torture a thousand times and I still treat you like my first love"? Go to hell, uncle
I have re-read this book so many times that I have almost torn it out, but I still can't get enough of it. Teacher Zhemei, why don't you open a new book? I'm so lonely. Teacher Zhemei, how can I live without your book? Teacher Zhemei??
Teacher, please, I really want to see the immortal white moonlight 🙏
He was having a hard time. It was also hard to watch. Both of them were hurt physically and mentally. However, the injury was caused by Gong's immaturity (the biggest reason)/the villain's fault, and Gong's feudal family background. In the final analysis, it was Shang's fault that led to miscarriage. The emotional status of the two was unequal from the beginning. Hzc's material compensation was ultimately due to the improvement of his political status through attack, and the previous scars can only fade away with time. . I don't care whether the attack is love or the habitual dependence of a wife. However, the author, a stepmother, feels that she is eating blood sugar (wry smile
I'm so greedy for writing this article 😭 Madam, when will you come back and continue writing 😭
I'm really determined to give it to a hot chick.
Uh, is this sister-in-law's literature only the beginning and the end... I'm so angry
I imagine this hypothesis in my mind, marrying my brother. In the "sister-in-law literature" I imagined, Mrs. Qi would ask Da Qi to take a concubine because of the issue of heirs. Qi Da might not agree at first, but because of his temper, he couldn't resist his mother, and because Xiao Jiang really had no choice but to accept the concubine half-heartedly, in the process, Xiao Jiang because of her husband once Once again, he was sad and disappointed because of his mother's embarrassment and inaction. Xiao Qi was by his side to help and enlighten him, and kept wandering around him to brush up on his presence. Xiao Jiang had slowly been moved for a long time, but because of his identity, he was unable and unwilling to think deeply about where this inexplicable throbbing came from and who it was because of. He is a person with a strong sense of morality and abides by etiquette. Although he was heartbroken during this process, felt uncontrollably worried about Xiao Qi, and was jealous because of the presence of others around him without even noticing it, the two of them never acted out of line. However, Da Qi, his concubine, Mrs. Qi, and others repeatedly acquiesced in provocation and persecution, and finally broke their hearts and left. Xiao Qi saw the opportunity, and Xiao Jiang gradually thought and understood his own feelings because he no longer had the worry of his identity. In fact, he had liked him a long time ago. In the past, he could not and did not dare to think about it because of his identity. But now he doesn't want to remarry into the Qi family because of his previous marriage, and he is married for the second time. He is afraid that Xiao Qi will mind and have a bad reputation. Xiao Qi also made it clear that what he cares about is him and that he has liked him for a long time. In the past, he always hung around in front of him and was attentive to him. It was not because his eldest brother was his father and his sister-in-law was his mother, but because he had coveted his sister-in-law for a long time. During this time, Xiao Qi also had a cold heart towards the family due to the neglected attitude of the Qi family and his father and mother since he was a child. He severed ties with the Qi family and relied on his own abilities to join the Yulin Guards and join the army. Now that he has the ability and identity to stand beside Xiao Jiang
The novels for finals week are just beautiful. . It's so bloody, it pisses me off to death. The back part is so beautiful that it's like a dream, the background is so feudal
Can the author write another ancient novel? What a bloody good match! 😚😳
