The Grand Secretary’s Lucky Little Wife

Mu Dong never expected her husband to wake up on the very day she married into his family. From then on, the Shen family’s fortunes took off, and their lives grew better and better. Mu Dongzhi could stumble and still catch a wild pheasant, scoop up a handful of dirt on the mountain and find a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu root, or do the laundry by the river and come across a priceless jade. Her husband not only recovered from his illness, but also passed the imperial examinations. Her elder brother-in-law joined the army and became a general. Even the maid she bought on a whim eventually became the wife of the richest man in the land. Everyone around her was turning into someone remarkable, so she resolved to work hard and improve herself too. But she never expected her husband, The Outcast, a man second only to the emperor and above all others, to say anxiously, “My wife is so outstanding that I can never feel at ease.” Mu Dongzhi hesitated. Should she stop striving to be better so her husband could feel secure?
