The “ugly” daughter of the prime minister’s residence x a blind young marquis who is effeminate, possessive, and intensely obsessive
Qin Shiwan was the legitimate eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue’s residence. Her stepmother was jealous of her beauty, so from childhood she would touch Qin Shiwan’s face and sigh, “The eldest girl is simply too ugly. We can only send her to be the old prince’s second wife.”
Qin Shiwan was young and believed she really was ugly.
She knew the old prince was cruel and violent, and had already tortured thirteen wives to death. If she married him, she would meet certain death.
To stay alive, she could only turn her attention to the new neighbors who had just moved in.
The third young master of the marquis’s household was gentle, refined, handsome, and easygoing. As it happened, he was blind.
So one day, she mustered her courage and went up to the third young master. She gently tugged on his sleeve and said softly, “Everyone says I’m both beautiful and well-behaved. Would you like to come ask for my hand? I can be your wife!”
“Beautiful... and well-behaved?” The third young master’s expression remained unchanged, his voice cool and even. “The last person who deceived me had their eyes fed to the dogs.”
Qin Shiwan covered her eyes in fright, but for the sake of her life, she gritted her teeth and said, “Of course I’m well-behaved!”
As for being beautiful... well, he couldn’t see anyway.
Qin Shiwan got her wish and married into the marquis’s household. She thought she’d found a treasure, only to discover that the third young master was neither gentle nor broad-minded. He was also a scheming, possessive obsessive on the inside.
He kept her by his side every day, never letting her get more than three steps away. Whenever they met someone, he would boast, “My little wife is beautiful and well-behaved!”
Qin Shiwan wanted to cry, but could only comfort herself: At least her husband was blind and couldn’t see her.
Who knew that one day the imperial physician would suddenly tell her, “The young marquis’s eyesight will be restored in three days.”
Qin Shiwan’s heart trembled. She couldn’t hide her eyes forever. She might as well run away!
But Qin Shiwan didn’t even make it out of the capital before the young marquis cornered her against a wall.
Qin Shiwan cried so hard her face was streaked with tears. “H-Husband, I may not be beautiful, but I’m very well-behaved. Please don’t gouge out my eyes...”
The third young master, now the young marquis, cupped her face and kissed her eye in punishment. “You really are beautiful, but well-behaved?...”
“Would a well-behaved wife run off and leave her husband behind?”
Qin Shiwan: So his eyesight... hadn’t completely recovered?
Bonus Scene:
Qin Shiwan had a small face. After the wedding, the first thing she did was have the maids divide the bathing hall in two, so the third young master wouldn’t see her while she bathed.
When the third young master found out, he said quite naturally, “There’s no need. I can’t see.”
Qin Shiwan believed him and dropped the idea.
Qin Shiwan had skin like polished jade, a slender waist, and long, slim, fair legs. She was breathtakingly beautiful.
The third young master got a nosebleed for the first time. With his back to Qin Shiwan, he cursed inwardly, “I should’ve put up a screen. What kind of bad karma is this!”

2. The Prime Minister’s Little Wife
A veteran bachelor’s heart catches fire x a sweet, soft little wife
Qin Sui could govern the country with his pen and pacify it with his sword. He set out for the northern frontier at seventeen and returned victorious ten years later.
He was hailed as the Great Zhou dynasty’s most strategic and valiant general.
Three months after returning to court, the emperor made him prime minister.
This legendary figure was nearly thirty and still unmarried.
Rumors abounded that his body had been injured in battle, leaving him unable to marry or have children for the rest of his life.
One day, after court, Chu Sui’s sedan chair was stopped outside the prime minister’s residence by a little girl who had yet to grow into her looks.
She pleaded with him, helpless and frail: “I’m the daughter of your late comrade-in-arms. My mother has passed away, and I have nowhere to go. Please take me in for two years, Uncle Qin. After that, you can send me off with just a dowry.”
Qin Sui brought her into his residence.
Two years later, the girl had blossomed into a beautiful, graceful young woman, like a lotus emerging from the water. Matchmakers came one after another to seek her hand, and Qin Sui began preparing her dowry.
After round upon round of screening, Qin Sui finally found her a fine match: the legitimate son of the marquis’s household.
Before he could tell the two of them, the young marquis came to ask about the outcome.
The two happened to stand together. They were a perfect match, handsome and beautiful, made for each other. For some reason, Qin Sui felt a pang in his eyes.
The young woman waited a long time for news of the betrothal, then couldn’t help asking Qin Sui, “I’ve already imposed on you for more than two years, Uncle. Please make the arrangements and find me a match.”
That evening, he called her into his room. “Great Zhou is a land of proper rites and ceremonies. Marriage is complicated and involves a lot of formalities.”
The young woman asked in confusion, “What do you mean, Uncle Qin?”
Qin Sui: “Why not just stay at the prime minister’s residence?”
The young woman: “But what if you marry one day, Uncle, and your wife doesn’t want your niece here...”
Qin Sui: “If you become the wife of the prime minister’s residence, you won’t need to worry about that.”
Core message: Believe in yourself. I can do this.
Zhou Mingyang has promised not to look at other girls. Young Master, do you want to ask your aunt when the girl who is going to be a concubine will arrive?
It's very painful to watch. Don't the male and female protagonists have mouths?
I'm really speechless... How can I still have such an ancient style in these days... The whole story is just about misunderstandings and quarrels, and the rest of the time is spent on the plot. What's so sweet about this story? It won't be enough for people who read it. The author's writing is pretty good. I hope the plot can be improved.
Little Marquis: Wanwan, you are the only one in my heart! Wanwan: Oh? Auntie: (Peering her head) The girl's sedan here is ready. When will it be my turn to appear? Auntie: I silently watch you seeking death. Xiao Zhou who was drifting away: I was wronged!!!
If you put it into reality, it's a piece of abuse.
Hahahahahaha, my dear, aren't you afraid that the young marquis will come to you at night?
No no no. I thought it was my uncle on the other side! Hahaha
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I laughed so hard, what do you mean you have to drink water?
Why are the last two pictures repeated? Are they anti-theft documents?
Otherwise, let's stay together. I have to take a concubine anyway! (Watching the excitement is not a big deal)
