Cute how she's trying to hash out their relationship. I like how she's straight to the point. That girl that looks dodgy - I wonder if she's a servant of the graceful consort?
i haven't finished the chapter yet but it's very cute that female lead is showering her husband with the same kind of gifts as for the concubines :') she really knows how to treat a lady/feminine dude
This reminds me of Kusuriya no Hitorigoto so so much. It's like the author took KnH's plot and simply changed Mao Mao to a merchant and Jinshi to a crossdresser instead of a eunuch.
