Farming: My Pampered Son-in-Law and Chief Minister Wants a Third Baby

Tang the Elder is one of the wealthiest men in Su Village. His wife died young, leaving him with only one daughter, Tang Wan.

“What's the point of making so much money? You've still only got a girl.”

“Once she gets married, won't all that money go to her husband's family?”

Angry, Tang the Elder decided to find his daughter a live-in husband. “Our family offers a generous bride price. Look around all the villages nearby and pick whoever you like. If you fancy him, we'll bring him home.”

That would show all the gossips who were green with envy.

Tang Wan picked the handsomest man, one who was frail and utterly useless at chores. “Father, him.”

Her husband was wonderful in every way. He was handsome and could cook, but he was always acting coy and cuddling up to her. It was so embarrassing.

“Wanwan, it's cold at night. Hold me while we sleep.”

Qin Si transmigrated into the body of a poor scholar. The moment he opened his eyes, his sister-in-law and her parents were already making his life miserable, and they were planning to sell him to the Tang family as a live-in son-in-law.

Qin Si sneered. Why should he put up with that? He'd turn their whole household upside down.

But the moment he saw Tang Wan, he blinked and sidled up to her. “My lady, when are we getting married?”

He was a goner.

Later, Qin Si passed the highest imperial exams and rose to become chief minister. Rumors spread through the capital that he was a live-in son-in-law, and people mocked him, saying that once he passed the exams he'd surely divorce his wife, and that he was a hypocrite pretending to be a gentleman.

Qin Si went home and complained pitifully, “Wanwan, they say you're going to divorce me. You wouldn't do that, would you?”
