The Live-In Son-in-Law: I Urge My In-Laws to Give Me a Little Brother-in-Law

Ren Fan, a special forces medic, worked himself to death at his desk in his previous life. He transmigrates into the Great Wu Dynasty as a penniless scholar and becomes a live-in son-in-law after Yin Mengyun, the only daughter of the Marquis of Anping, takes him in. He plans to lie flat and live off his wife, spending his days enjoying himself with her. But the marquis's business is in steep decline, his father-in-law is exhausted, his mother-in-law is weakened by childbirth, his brother-in-law is eyeing him warily, and his brother-in-law, a favored consort's relative, keeps closing in. With no other choice, Ren Fan steps in. Using his brewing expertise from his previous life, he launches Drunken Immortal Brew and brings the business back from the brink. He also secretly cultivates the Sleeping Immortal Art and dazzles everyone with his poetic talent. While tending to his in-laws' health and urging them to "give Mengyun another little brother," he exchanges poetry and wine with Jiang Huaxi, the leading beauty of the Hundred Blossoms Pavilion; trades teasing banter with his mature senior sister Liu Shasha; and turns the tables on the assassin Chu Qiao. He thrives in the Great Wu Dynasty, where martial prowess is valued and literature is scorned. From a live-in son-in-law who only wanted to lie flat to the decisive pillar of the marquis's household, Ren Fan proves with his abilities: this meal I'm living off? I'll eat it on my own terms!
