Widowed on Her Wedding Night, She Remarries a Rugged Man and Is Spoiled Rotten

Fiery Widow vs. Rugged Country Hunk Countryside + Mature Men and Women + Period Setting + Female Growth + Grown-Up Push and Pull + Size Difference + Devoted Hound On the very night Huaihua marries into Baisha Village, her husband dies of illness. People say widows always attract trouble, and a young widow like Huaihua, with her graceful figure and pretty face, draws even more unwanted attention. The idle men in the village show up every few days, spouting dirty talk and leering at her. Huaihua plants a hand on her hip, splashes water at them, and curses them until they flee with their heads in their hands. The most annoying of them all is Zhao Tiesheng. He's a notorious bully, with mischief practically oozing from his smile. Anyone who crosses him comes to regret it, and the whole village steers clear of him. But the way this rugged man looks at her isn't quite right. When she draws water, he follows her. When she washes clothes, he squats on the opposite riverbank smoking. When her roof leaks, he climbs up in the middle of the night to fix it. Even when she catches him, he won't admit a thing. He grins wickedly around his cigarette. “Just looking at the stars. What's wrong with that?” Huaihua gets fed up and blocks his way at the door. “Zhao, what exactly do you want?” He stubs out his cigarette, steps closer, and looks down at her. “What do you think?” Everyone in the village knows Zhao Tiesheng doesn't bow to anyone. Huaihua would be asking for trouble if she went after him. But later, someone sees the village bully crouching outside Huaihua's door early in the morning, scrubbing clothes. When he's done, he even hangs them up to dry. Huaihua steps out and kicks him. “You hung my underwear crooked.” He shifts half a step and hangs it straight, then looks up at her with the same shameless expression. “Little woman, just wait. I'll deal with you tonight.”
