Unfortunately, the Su family was too weak to protect her, and after a wealthy rogue took a liking to her, they had no choice but to hastily marry her off to a rough man from the next village—an even bigger village bully. Although he was five years older than her, they had grown up together as childhood sweethearts, but they always seemed incompatible. On their wedding night, Lu Zhao grabbed Su Yunqi's chin and sneered. "Spoiled brat, you've fallen into my hands, haven't you? Weren't you laughing at me for not being able to find a wife? Now who have I married? Watch how I ruthlessly destroy this flower!" "You're so annoying!" Su Yunqi knew that she had no choice but to marry him now. In the past, she would have already cursed back, but now she could only turn her face away, tears streaming down her face. The burly Lu Zhao was stunned and could only abandon his ruthless act and wipe away her tears. "Touch me, and I won't hit you." Su Yunqi touched him teary-eyed, then was thoroughly taken advantage of by the excited man, who then spent half the night coaxing his little wife. The second night, he was hooked. The third night, the mischievous man used a ghost story to coax his wife into taking the initiative... Later, the village bully willingly sacrificed everything for the delicate little devil! A sharp-tongued, doting village bully versus a delicate, sensible, and adorable village beauty—it's a story of a childish, sharp-tongued, rough man teasing his wife, while also getting rich. Who wouldn't want to be close to a soft, crybaby little wife! Later, they raise a child and tease him together! There are some scenes of punishing villains, but probably not many; the main focus is on heartwarming family bonding.
