Everyone said that Song Jin had married a good husband. He was handsome and dignified, a picture of propriety, and had even traveled thousands of miles from the capital to Chongzhou to find her.
Whenever Song Jin heard this while out on the streets, she thought that while her husband was indeed good, he was simply too strict.
She had shared a bed with him for many days, yet she hadn’t even managed to touch his fingertips.
Aside from that, Song Jin was very satisfied with this marriage, except—
She stopped in her tracks, carrying her vegetable basket as she looked back.
Oh?
That young man has a really nice physique.
What a fine waist. Let me take one more look.

Xie Qiao of the Xie clan was the eldest legitimate son of the Jing’an Marquis Estate and the tutor to the Crown Prince.
To repay Song Feng for saving his life, he went to Chongzhou to marry Song Feng’s younger sister, Song Jin. He originally thought she was just a simple country girl—how could she possibly take charge of the Jing’an Marquis Estate?
To his surprise, Song Jin was obedient and intelligent, so observant of propriety that she would blush just seeing other people holding hands.
Gradually, he changed his mind.
He thought that with a bit of training, once they reached the capital, she would surely become a qualified matriarch of the clan.
One day, the two of them were lying inside their newly purchased Mandarin Duck Green Gauze Tent.
The surroundings were silent, but Xie Qiao clearly heard the inner voice of his obedient wife—
【What a pity about that book of Spring Palace Illustrations I just burned in the kitchen…】
Xie Qiao (pupils shaking in shock): No matter, he would simply teach her diligently.
Later.
【That young man on the street today had a really nice waist!】
Xie Qiao (gritting his teeth): No matter, she is still young and hasn’t seen the best yet.
Finally.
【Today, Big Brother Wang said that Xie Qiao is the eldest legitimate son of the Xie family, not the person my brother betrothed me to at all. But it’s okay, I believe my husband; he definitely didn’t lie to me on purpose!】
Xie Qiao’s lips curved slightly, his heart warming.
But before he could find a chance to explain, Song Jin left behind a Divorce Letter and vanished!
Not only that, she even burned the Mandarin Duck Tent where they had shared their nights to a crisp!
Song Jin, what a clever little liar and actress!
He stared at that Divorce Letter, raising his hand to toss it into the brazier.
Xie Qiao (with a half-smile): No matter, once he catches her, he will teach her again.
That night, Song Jin, who hadn’t made it very far, was captured and brought back to the carriage!
Xie Qiao slowly and methodically pinned Song Jin by her waist, his expression dangerous: “Madam is so obedient, how could you lie to me?”
Song Jin: Help! She didn’t lie to him, she’s very well-behaved!
☆ A strict high official who repays a debt of gratitude after being seriously injured.
☆ A cheerful little chef who is obedient on the outside but a speed demon in her heart.

A lighthearted, sweet story. The daughter is a cute “Boiled Egg”—white and tender on the outside, but “yellow” (naughty) on the inside. In the early stage, the male lead falls for her and gradually breaks his own bottom lines; in the later stage, the male lead is a deep-scheming man chasing his wife.
