The Wife is FirstCh26 - The Gathering

27 comments

1. Well, yeah, there’s bound to be a lot of discontent and unhappiness among the male wives… ☹ Mu Hanzhang and Zhou Jin seem to be a rare exception.

   But the description of MH and JS’s idle days at the villa is really sweet (especially “soaking in the hot spring” part 🤭).

   Thank you for the translation! ❤

   • they got lucky with their hubbies cherishing them

2. You can detect the sour smell of vinegar coming from our darling MHZ （＞ｙ＜）

3. Zhou Jing is such a good friend!! And those envious of our Mu Hanzhang can go die. Everyone else were really nice, and I feel sad for them. They also deserve a Jing Shao.

   The war matters are complicate. How can Jing Shao get away unscathed?!

   Thanks for the chapter!

4. I agree. It’s sad for the other male wives to have such situations. I feel sorry for them ;-; These gatherings however seem good, as they can meet people with similar circumstances and find companioship.

   Thanks for the chapter! 🙂

   • *companionship

     The keyboard’s word suggestions have failed me with their spelling

   • my dear can I bother you for a little second, I really don’t know where else to ask (一。一;;） I just started reading TWF and I noticed that Dan Dan translates directly from jjwxc, some words in ch.23-24-26 were censored so I started panicking, do you know if the rest of the chapters are censored too? ;-;

5. Thanks for the chapter 😊

6. It’s not clear, so that Du Yinghao is also a male wife in Duke Mao household?

   Everywhere is the same for the wife huh…..

   • Yep! He’s the wife of the Duke Mao’s third son

7. “Don’t be rude!” Du Yinghao intended to say something more, but was stopped by his second sister-in-law’s exclamation.

   at first I thought this was suppose to be brother-in-law but then I thought its a gathering of MALE WIVES and connected that the sister-in-law is male 😅😅😅 in can be a bit confusing from time to time.

8. Thanks for the hard work love the story ^_^

9. Most of the comments have already speaking my thoughts.

   Sigh..

   This is why sometimes I just don’t like Chinese novels.

   Anyways, it’s good he gets the chance I to show off Jing Shao’s affection.

   Hehehe…

   Thank you for the update ❤️

10. I really like that part where that one male wife got bitch slapped, after trying to make Mu Hanzhang unhappy. ( ‘▽‘⊂彡☆))Д´)

    Thanks for the chapter! (￣ ³￣)~♡

11. MH is truly a lucky wife, having a husband who only has eyes for him ;w; I feel bad for the other male wives though,, it must be hard on them.

    Thank you for translating!!!

12. Uhmm … siento pena por muchos de las esposas masculinas, pues sus esposas solo están con ellos porque no tuvieron de otra.

    Menos por el envidioso ese, tks, tks… buena bofetada la que recibió

13. I feel sad for the other male wives. Im glad that ZJ and MZH were loved by their husbands.

    Thank you for the chapter!

14. Gosh I like have no idea about what’s happening politically but am supper happy about the MC’s and ML’s loving relationship it’s just too sad that the other male wives are so unappreciated😿

    Thanks for the chapter!😚💕🙏

    • Even I am kinda confused @-@ At some point I’ll add stuff to the glossary to try to clarify things~

      • Hehe, it’s good to hear I’m not alone in being lost, I’ll be sure to look up what’s what in the glossary when you’ve worked your magic.😂🤝

        Thank you for your hard work!💖🙏

15. Dan-dan Mein, let me thank you for translating this novel. Although I don’t really like these novel which are mainly of the backyard and handling nth numbers of concubines etc, somehow I can’t stop reading… I wonder why.

    By the way, most of the links in this chapters, which show images are broken….

    • Thank you for letting me know! I don’t know how I missed your comment but I’ll try to fix the links now 🙂

      • It’s fine 🙂 I just saw it and didn’t know if you just forgot to delete the links or if the images got deleted by accident, so I had to ask 🙂 Ah I see you already fixed it. Thank you for your hard work!

16. The way MHZ show off his hubby is really cute..

18. Thank you for the chapter ❤❤❤❤

19. Aiyoo.. Zhou-gege is lucky that his husband favors him so much to the point of not taking a concubine ever since. Ha! This-

    That is because Assistant Minister Xian is the Shou, why would he dares take wives when he cannot take care of them. hahahaha.
