The Grand Marshal's Everyday Life of Pampering His Wife

The Shen family of the capital was a family of scholars with a history spanning a century.

Shen Jingshu, daughter of Grand Tutor Shen, was a well-known talent among the young ladies of the official families. Her hairpin-style calligraphy was praised by people of her time.

She should have been matched with a worthy husband, but the Emperor decreed her marriage to Meng Ci, the fearsome Grand Marshal.

It was said that once, a noble young lady had declared her love for him, offering a dance and deliberately dropping her hairpin in front of him.

But he didn't even look up. His words made her feel as if she'd fallen into an ice cellar: "Can't you even stand on your own? Do you not have hands?"

And so everyone said Grand Marshal Meng Ci had no interest in women.

When the imperial decree came, many people gleefully waited to see someone as delicate as Shen Jingshu get carelessly crushed beneath his heel.

But after they married, Shen Jingshu merely praised a certain gentleman's exceptional talent, and the man was consumed by jealousy...

Later, Meng Ci held Shen Jingshu in his arms, looking at her misty eyes and her sweet, soft expression. Unable to resist his affection for her, he thought with a sigh: He'd fallen for her completely in this life. He might as well stop fighting it.

But he couldn't let it go. The man's thoughts slowly came to life: Could his wife also like another version of him?

[Little scene]

When Shen Jingshu first married into the family, Meng Ci hurried her to bed after bathing. "My lady, let's turn in!"

"All right."

After a while, Meng Ci still hadn't seen her come over.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet, my lady?"

"I can't sleep."

"No!"

"..."

Only after Meng Ci wrapped his arms around her from behind and glanced at the book in her hands did he suddenly say regretfully, "My lady is the most talented woman in the capital, but I'm so poorly educated that I can't compose poetry or paint with you. It's truly shameful!"

Thinking of Meng Ci's background, Shen Jingshu felt a pang of pain and hurriedly pulled him to bed.

Later, when Shen Jingshu passed the study, she saw the manuscript of a famous scholar scattered across the desk. She knew that handwriting all too well. Thinking back on everything that had happened, the truth was almost upon her.

1. The male lead pretends to be illiterate, but is actually very talented. He's a schemer, and his true identity will eventually be exposed.

2. Both leads are each other's first. It's a marriage before love. The heroine has never loved anyone but the male lead.

3. Overbearing, jealous Grand Marshal x gentle little bunny.

4. A word of caution: reading should be fun, so please be understanding if there are any shortcomings. I'll study writing more carefully as I continue, and I hope to improve. Please don't be mean. Wishing you happiness every day.
