   Is the male lead henpecked? Punished by the female lead? Then you absolutely must check out the books by Erfu and Huabanshan! (Note⚠️⚠️: The plots of the books are similar, and the male leads are both insecure and prone to self-destruction. If you find this annoying, you can read these first, and if that doesn't work, then check out other recommended books; these are normal male-female relationships, not 4i! Wishing you all a happy new year and no shortage of books to read!)

    🍏🍏Niu Miaomiao, who had been sprawled out on the bed taking up most of the space, suddenly sat up. Without waiting for Niu Sibao to dress her, she quickly jumped out of bed, wearing only a bib and a pair of shorts. Her short, bird-nest-like hair trailed behind her as she ran towards the kitchen where the Niu family cooked. Niu Sibao followed behind, carrying her clothes and shoes. "Miaomiao! Slow down! Slow down! Don't fall!" "Ouch! Be careful! There's a threshold! A threshold!" Niu Miaomiao ignored her father's nagging, quickly climbed onto a small stool, and reached for her special wooden bowl and spoon, but Niu Sibao, who had chased after her, beat her to it. "Don't climb so high! Dad will get them for you!" Niu Sibao gave his daughter the bowl and spoon, and Niu Miaomiao, having already taken the bowl, ran back to the main room where they ate. As soon as she entered the main room, a bright-looking woman named Wang Meilan greeted Niu Miaomiao. "Miaomiao! Come here! Come to Mommy! Ouch! Don't run so fast!" "Mommy!" Niu Miaomiao called out to her mother, and with a "smack," slammed the wooden bowl on the table with great force. Old Mrs. Li, who was serving the food, glared at Niu Miaomiao with displeasure! Before she could say anything, Niu Miaomiao spoke up! "Grandpa, Grandma, eldest uncle, eldest aunt, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, aunt, eldest cousin, second cousin, third cousin, fourth cousin, fifth cousin, eldest cousin, second cousin, third cousin, fourth cousin, little cousin! Good morning!" Before anyone could speak, Niu Sibao entered the main room, carrying clothes in one hand and shoes in the other.
