Blurb: The moment Qiao Wanyue married into the Qiao family with her mother, she understood that none of the Qiao family's possessions had anything to do with her.
She had no share in the family fortune or a prestigious marriage. She would eat well, sleep well, and drink well each day, collect her modest monthly allowance, and wait to marry a scholar, then lie flat for the rest of her life.
That was until her stepsister's marriage ran into trouble.
Her stepsister had secretly pledged herself to the newly appointed top scholar and refused to marry a powerful man nearly thirty years old who had supposedly caused his first wife to die. The Qiao family did not want to give up the marquis's residence as an ally, so they discussed it and replaced the bride with Qiao Wanyue.
On their wedding night, the tall, broad-shouldered man said in a low voice, "Now that you have married into the marquis's residence, you must abide by the clan rules and behave yourself. I will not mistreat you."
Qiao Wanyue blinked and nodded repeatedly. She had heard that the principal wife's monthly allowance at the marquis's residence was twenty times what she had received before, along with eight new outfits every month, jewelry, and gifts. It was a great bargain.
Qin Yan continued, "I am busy with official duties and cannot keep you company every day. We will share a bed three times a month. Do you agree?"
Qiao Wanyue's eyes lit up with joy. A carefree life, money, and no need to face him every day. Wonderful.

Little scene:
Qin Yan never expected that one day he would regret it. He had promised too much, and now he was suffering the consequences.
One day, Qin Yan knocked from outside. "My lady, open the door. I can't sleep in an unfamiliar bed."
Qiao Wanyue sighed from inside. Why was he here again? So annoying. She liked sleeping alone. It was comfortable.
The next day, the bed from the master bedroom was moved out and sent to the guest room.
----Coming soon: [Forced to Marry My Late Husband's Elder Brother]. Blurb:
Lin Wanyu's husband was gravely ill, and the people around her watched greedily, all coveting the family fortune. With no other choice, Lin Wanyu sent a letter to her brother-in-law, whom she had never met, asking him to help her for the sake of the brotherly bond he had once shared with her husband.
At her late husband's funeral, the man arrived as promised. He wore coarse cloth faded from washing, and his weary face showed how far he had traveled.
"Don't be afraid, sister-in-law. I'll help you."
Lin Wanyu nodded and murmured her thanks through her tears.
The outcome was not what she had hoped. The family fortune was divided up, and she was driven from her husband's home with nowhere to go.
Then Gu Yunzhou asked her in his plain clothes, "Sister-in-law, would you be willing to come with me to Bianjing? Once I pass the imperial examination, I'll come back and help you reclaim your family's fortune."
She clutched her handkerchief for a long time before gently nodding.
In Bianjing, they lived in a small courtyard. The young man earned money and studied outside, while she managed the household at home. Their life was poor, but fulfilling.
Lin Wanyu counted and recounted the money the young man gave her. It was for books, ink, and brushes, and he still needed a decent set of clothes. She would save whatever was left for him to marry a wife someday.
Lin Wanyu smiled with contentment. Their life seemed to get better with every passing day.
Until one day, she saw the man from afar, dressed in fine silks and surrounded by beautiful women. Only then did she realize it had all been a lie. He had deceived her.

Gu Yunzhou had returned to the Gu family to watch a show of people turning on one another, but that woman had treated him like her last hope and thanked him with tears of gratitude.
She had skin like ice and bones like jade, a slender waist, and tears in her eyes as she told him of her troubles. Gu Yunzhou's heart stirred, and he decided on the spot to keep up the act.
She was devoted to her late husband. Though she had lost everything, she still planned to live in the mountains and observe three years of mourning for him. Gu Yunzhou sneered and used a few tricks to take her to Bianjing.
Gu Yunzhou arranged for her to stay in the smallest, shabbiest courtyard and only visited in his spare time. She never complained. She even happily budgeted for their life together, watched over him, and sewed his clothes by lamplight, bought him books and ink, and fussed over his well-being. Seeing how obedient and considerate she was, Gu Yunzhou thought he might as well keep acting.
But as time went by, he grew tired of the act and no longer wanted to continue. He was no longer content to be her elder brother, and other thoughts took root in his mind.
That night, he cornered her against the wall, trapping her beneath his arms. "Wanniang, why can't I?"
But she only wept and shook her head.
There was plenty of time. Gu Yunzhou was in no hurry. One day, he would melt her heart.
But he had underestimated her resolve. The seemingly delicate woman left without a word, leaving him with an empty courtyard.
The refined, cultured facade he had worn for so long was torn away completely, replaced by a crazed look in his eyes.

Nervous. Is the author out of inspiration? I don't like watching this kind of intellectual drama anymore.
Author, look at what the male protagonist is like. He is said to be powerful, but he doesn't notice at all when his stepmother asks him to drink a tonic after having sex. He is so slow, how can he survive in the officialdom? Also, you feel sorry for your original wife, and you still want to raise the child with the mistress even though you know it is not yours, right? As your eldest son, even this child called the mistress a concubine, but you didn't teach him a lesson and still raised him. Is it a pleasure to abuse the woman? The same goes for the original wife. The previous article has always described her as a knowledgeable, courteous and dignified person. What a mess her character has become when she comes back. She is just like the concubine he brought back in the general article. She pretends to be a white lotus and sheds tears. She has to be portrayed in this way. Wasn't she written very well in the previous article? She is written like this as a lady. He has not fulfilled his duty of care to his first wife, so why should the heroine raise the child that his first wife had with someone else together with him. The male protagonist is indecisive, half-hearted, lustful, and has no mouth. The heroine doesn't have to deal with it when she gets married. After marrying the male protagonist, she has to deal with her mother-in-law and her first wife. How can she be so embarrassed? It is suggested that the author let the male protagonist and the female protagonist reconcile and divorce, and then love each other lovingly and raise the original wife's son, so that he will not feel guilty, the family will be satisfied, the original wife will be satisfied, and the children will be satisfied too. While the female protagonist is still not deeply attached to the male protagonist, we should quickly relieve the female protagonist, find a new male protagonist, or let the female protagonist be the main heroine. I wonder how this copywriting can create such a disgusting contradiction even if it doesn't include any abuse.
It's really disgusting. The author deliberately disgusted the heroine, and those of you who got bumped, I wonder what you bumped into? Knocked the male protagonist mute? Also deliberately disgusting the heroine? So cheap
Let Yueyue return to Shengjing happily
Can it be solved in the next chapter? Let's leave as soon as possible😐
Can't the heroine just leave on her own? She has to stay here and have people point at her. If the hero doesn't behave, the heroine can't just make them happy.
I feel aggrieved, I didn't expect Su Su's sister to be a scheming bitch. Hostess, please feel free to let the three of them pass.
It's so short. I hope that in addition to his ability to pick up girls, Mr. Hou can also use the methods of a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Justice. Anyway, it's a shame that his wife has been left in vain for eight years without knowing anything.
I haven't seen enough, I haven't seen enough, and I still dream about updates.
