After Losing My Memory, I Mistook My Late Husband's Father for My Husband

[A pampered little wife vs. a century-old iron tree]

[Novella / Amnesia trope]

Shen Rou woke up one day having forgotten everything.

Seeing the man at her side, who had been by her side day and night, caring for her, she instinctively assumed he was her husband.

But her husband didn't seem to like her very much.

They'd been married for so long, yet he still refused to make them truly husband and wife.

She used a little trick and finally got what she wanted,

only to find a divorce agreement written in her husband's own hand in the study.

There's also a long-form story of the same type in my collection, coming soon: The Amnesiac Wife Mistakes Her Husband. Please add it to your collection!

To pay for her mother's medical treatment, Shen Shu married into the wealthy Pei family to bring good fortune to the Pei family's dying eldest son.

A year later, the Pei family's eldest son died. Shen Shu resigned and prepared to leave the Pei family, but an accident happened along the way.

When Shen Shu woke up, she remembered nothing. All she had was a heartfelt farewell letter and a portrait of a man.

With only those clues, she returned to the Pei family.

Shen Shu looked at the kind and welcoming Madam Pei, felt an instant connection, and called her "Mother-in-law."

Madam Pei happily accepted the title.

Shen Shu sighed with relief. It seemed she had come to the right place.

Then she turned to Pei Erlang, who had just returned from the battlefield, covered in wounds. Seeing his resemblance to the man in the portrait, she called out sweetly, "Husband."

Pei Erlang's face turned red. In the end, he changed "sister-in-law" to "wife."
