Reborn: Refusing to Be a Live-In Son-in-Law

He Youliang's name sounds like a wish for enough food to eat and a life free from hunger. The names elders give their children are always filled with hope. Yet his birth nearly killed his mother, who suffered a difficult labor, and she never took to him because of it. From childhood, she secretly beat and scolded him, leaving him timid and weak, never daring to look anyone in the eye. The second child in the family, he was privately called “Second Fool” by his siblings. The whole village came to know him by that name: everyone called him He the Second Fool, while nobody remembered his real name, He Youliang. In those turbulent times, he stumbled through life, doing the most work at home and always getting the least to eat. He watched his elder brother marry and have children, then watched his younger siblings do the same. His parents seemed to have forgotten all about finding him a wife. Fate showed He Youliang no mercy. When he caught his elder brother with his younger brother's wife, they turned the blame on him. Since the Second Fool had gone all these years without a wife, and was accused of eyeing the women in the family, his elder and younger brothers beat him black and blue. With his mother's full approval, he was sent to the Wang family in the village as a live-in son-in-law. He had once held out hope for a better life. He escaped the wolf's den, only to fall into another hell. Reborn, he is no longer that Second Fool, nor the spineless weakling everyone could bully. A special forces veteran with ten years of service in the modern world dies and returns to his previous life. See how He Youliang, reborn, makes a different life for himself in this extraordinary era.
