[Delicate, spoiled young intellectual who seems easy to bully vs. scheming, brooding, intensely possessive rugged man]

Ruan Qiusui transmigrates into a book set in the 1980s, becoming a spoiled young intellectual who despises poverty. She is currently pressuring her dirt-poor, rugged husband, Huo Zhengrong, to pay for a city job quota for her older brother.

She knows that this man before her, smelling of sweat and taking odd jobs driving freight trucks, is a ruthless brute who would risk his life without a second thought.

And because she betrays him by cheating, he will personally make sure she spends the rest of her life behind bars, leaving her with a miserable fate.

Determined to live comfortably, Ruan Qiusui decides to drop her spoiled act and stop asking for money. She will even trick her lazy older brother and her parents into doing hard labor at a brick kiln!

“I don’t want your hard-earned money. I’ll start a little business of my own.” Ruan Qiusui slaps the ten yuan she earned onto the table.

Huo Zhengrong looks at his little wife, her eyes red at the corners as she makes a petulant complaint, and grabs her slender waist in his big hand.

“You can spend my money however you want, but you’re staying here with me. Want to cut ties with me? Not a chance. You’re going to die right here on my kang.”

“Huo Zhengrong, stop acting like a lecher! I have to get up early tomorrow to set up a stall in town!”

“Run your business by day, and give me a baby at night. Not one less.”
