Marrying the Village Bully in the Seventies: The Sickly Educated Youth Is Spoiled by Her Rugged Husband

A torrential rainstorm swept through the countryside in the 1970s, and a landslide buried the mountain behind the village.

Wen Yu was buried alive. When she opened her eyes again, a modern office worker's soul had taken over her body.

Her parents favored her siblings, her elder brother and sister-in-law shirked their responsibilities, and she had only five yuan to her name. Not only was her leg broken, but the other educated youth sharing her room also ostracized her.

Life sent down to the countryside was so bitter and hard that Wen Yu hid in an abandoned cowshed, dizzy and starving, as two clear tears rolled down her cheeks.

Just as she thought she was going to starve to death, Gu Chen, the village's notorious good-for-nothing, pushed open the door and stuffed a piping-hot roasted sweet potato into her mouth. With a cold expression, he asked:

Would she be willing to team up with him and share a life together?

No fieldwork, room and board covered, plus a monthly allowance...

Wen Yu stared fixedly at the sweet potato and swallowed hard.

M-M-Marry him? She would! This was clearly a paid vacation with a live-in caretaker in the 1970s. She would get meat to eat and money to spend. Whatever happened, that was better than working in the fields with a broken leg.

Gu Chen had only wanted to find an obedient wife to get his mother off his back about getting married.

At a glance, he had taken a fancy to Wen Yu, the new educated youth: delicate and sickly, she looked easy to control.

Things went surprisingly smoothly, and the two hit it off at once. After they married, Gu Chen dealt in black-market goods by day and brought her food and meat by night, beginning his campaign to feed his wife like crazy.

As he kept pampering her, the miserable little cabbage he had taken in turned into a radiant, well-nourished flower.

Later, Wen Yu clutched her bulging wallet and smiled. “Boss Gu, it's been a pleasure working with you. I'm planning to, ”

Gu Chen pinned her against the wall and kissed her before she could finish. His gaze was dark and dangerous. “Planning what? To settle down and focus on having my baby?”
