    Highly recommend this book!! It's incredibly good. The male lead is very insecure and doesn't dare to even dream of the female lead. Then, the female lead becomes the daughter of a disgraced official and is rescued by this rough-and-tumble man. He's honest and poor, the kind of poor who can't even afford food, yet he prioritizes all his money for her. He even buys steamed buns and carefully tucks them into her coat, afraid she'll find them dirty. He honestly tells her they're not dirty, that he wipes them very carefully, and that he'll buy her more if she thinks they're dirty. His love is so humble, but the female lead is also incredibly kind. Seeing the male lead's goodness, she's willing to live a good life with him. At first, the male lead thinks the female lead is just pretending to be his wife, but when he finds out she's really going to be his wife, he jumps for joy and brags to everyone he meets. It's truly a story of an honest, rough-and-tumble man and a smart, intelligent female lead working together to get rich and get revenge on her scumbag ex-fiancé.
