A Capable Village Belle and Her Good-for-Nothing Live-In Son-in-Law

Zhao Hua is the capable, no-nonsense village beauty of Taiping Village. She supports her family with a small shop, while her adoptive parents hope she'll marry a man who can support them in their old age.

A scandalous affair involving a potential match ruins the marriage prospects outright.

Unable to find a man willing to marry into her family, she chooses the impoverished Li boy who lives behind her house.

His family is buried in debt, he's timid by nature and always lowers his head when trouble comes, and his two older sisters are forever trying to push him around.

The whole village laughs at her for getting the short end of the stick, marrying a good-for-nothing man who can't hold up the family.

Zhao Hua doesn't care.

She'll fend off the gossip, deal with the troublemakers who come knocking, and run the shop herself.

From the start, this marriage was about her taking care of him.

Who says women are weaker than men? Zhao Hua has a brilliant answer!
