The Virtuous Matriarch Is Everyone's Dream Girl

With a single imperial decree arranging her marriage, Zhou Du went from a renowned noblewoman to the wife of the heir to the Marquis of Yongning.

The good news: Her father-in-law had personally requested the decree. He was very pleased with Zhou Du as his daughter-in-law, and he was a powerful patron to have on her side.

The bad news: The heir had a childhood sweetheart, his cousin, whom he loved. He hated Zhou Du for making his beloved cousin a concubine.

But Zhou Du didn't care at all. She only wanted to be a virtuous lady of the house, with money, free time, and authority. Her husband could be left to the concubine's care, and she could have the concubine give birth to a few children for her to play with.

Unexpectedly, her first love, who had died on the battlefield two years ago, suddenly returned and wanted to elope with her! Her husband got jealous and insisted on pursuing her after driving her away. Zhou Du wanted to escape, but a young powerful minister pulled her into his arms. "Sister-in-law, if my elder brother can, why can't I?"
