The Madam's Delicate Concubine

[Golden Finger Concubine x Vicious Wife]

*

The Marquess of Ningyuan's wife, Xi Muqing, was infamous in the capital for her jealousy.

Unmarried young women who so much as glanced at the marquess would come to a terrible end.

Xi Muqing's reputation as a poisonous, jealous shrew spread far and wide. Everyone was afraid of her.

Even the marquess avoided her like the plague, but Xi Muqing carried on regardless, taking her reputation as a poisonous, jealous shrew to even greater heights.

That is, until the marquess took in a beautiful foreign concubine, said to be so delicate that she blushed at the sight of anyone and inspired pity in all who saw her.

The marquess insisted on marrying her, and the wife who had always been jealous of every woman readily agreed.

But their good fortune did not last. The marquess suddenly died, Xi Muqing took complete control of the estate, and the beautiful concubine vanished without a trace.

Everyone sighed, certain that without the marquess's protection, the delicate concubine would be devoured by the poisonous shrew until not a bone remained.

A beauty with a tragic fate, how lamentable.

Years later, Xi Muqing moved out of the marquess's estate and into a new residence.

To everyone's amazement, the sweet, delicate concubine had not been tortured to death. Instead, she had been kept fresh and lively, so lovely that no one could look away.

From that moment on, Xi Muqing's reputation as a poisonous, jealous shrew became even more notorious.

Even a dog that glanced at the concubine got slapped twice.

Rumors began spreading throughout the capital, growing with every telling.

The poisonous, jealous shrew Xi Muqing had once been jealous of women, and now she was jealous of men too.

There were even rumors that the concubine had never been taken in for the marquess at all. The jealous shrew had taken her in for herself.
