[Farming + household intrigue + revenge and catharsis + mutual healing]
Diligent working heroine vs. tragic, beautiful, powerful, obsessive villain hero
Su Niannian transmigrated into an old-fashioned romance novel and became the cannon-fodder wife of Xie Linzhou, the story’s mad villain.
The first thing she saw when she woke was his jade-like smile, and the poison he held to her lips.
She asked, “Do I have to drink it?”
And then… there was no “then.”
It wasn’t until she opened her eyes for the sixth time that she slapped a homemade antidote pill down in front of him. “Let’s work together. I can save you.”
Later, the villagers of Xinghua Village noticed that the impoverished scholar from the Xie family had changed.
Despite his illness, he accompanied his wife to farm and gather herbs, taught students to support the household, and lived in perfect harmony with her.
Only Su Niannian knew that one slip could cost her life!
She used her medical skills to keep him alive, came up with a “Husband-Taming Plan” to stop him from massacring the village, and used the silver she earned to fund his studies for the imperial examinations.
She thought she was diligently completing her mission so she could get home as soon as possible.
She never expected the villain’s character to suddenly change.
“My wife loves me even more today,” Xie Linzhou thought.
Later still, the newly crowned top scholar became famous throughout the capital.
Xie Linzhou returned with his wife to the family that had once cast him aside like trash.
At court, he turned the tide and manipulated events to his advantage;
In the inner household, she used her skill and ingenuity to turn the tables.
As the truth about his mother’s brutal death and his own crippling came to light, layer by layer…
Everyone thought Su Niannian was Xie Linzhou’s only light,
But no one knew that he, too, was the only salvation she had in this life and her last.
“Niannian, hell is too cold. Stay with me in the world of the living.”
Unexpectedly beautiful
