Fleeing a Marriage to the Countryside in the 1970S, I Pick Up a Village Tyrant for a Husband

To get their hands on Lu Mannan’s property, her uncle’s family takes three hundred yuan in betrothal gifts and sells her to Wu Fugui, a widower with six children whose three previous wives were all beaten to death. They hope Wu Fugui will beat Lu Mannan to death, so they can claim her house and job. Lu Mannan sees through their scheme. She plays along with them while secretly selling her job and property, then signs up to go to the countryside as an educated youth. You shouldn’t bring home men you find by the roadside, but Lu Mannan doesn’t know that! So she brings a village bully home. Afterward, the village bully turns into a sweet, clingy puppy who follows her around every day, insisting she take responsibility for him.
