After Marrying the Second Male Lead to Bring Him Good Fortune

The day she transmigrates into a book, Yang Yulu becomes Yue Lin's bride, brought in to bring him good fortune.

The girl has delicate brows, rosy cheeks, and a slender, frail frame. On their wedding day, Yue Lin kicks her out.

"Get out! I'd rather die than marry some bride brought in to bring me good fortune!"

The Yue family is powerful, and there are rumors that they have connections in the capital. No one in the county dares to cross them. As the family's only son, Yue Lin is unruly and spends all day stirring up trouble. If he hadn't fallen into the water this time, a poor orphan like Yang Yulu would never have had a chance.

People outside say Yang Yulu is blessed, since the half-blind man in the eastern part of town named her as Yue Lin's perfect match.

Yang Yulu's face is expressionless. "Anyone who wants that blessing can have it!"

If Yue Lin were the male lead, that would be one thing. But he has the role of the second male lead, cruel and difficult to deal with. Later, after his family falls into decline, he turns completely villainous and becomes the Northern Suppressing Marquis, the new ruler's most valued man, causing the protagonists plenty of trouble.

As a cannon-fodder first wife, she should get as far away as possible.

But before she leaves, she might as well grab a few benefits...

Yue Lin has recently decided that Yang Yulu is in love with him. The evidence:

He knocks over his bowl of medicine, and without a word she makes him another one.

He coughs in the middle of the night, and the next day she makes him a sweet soup to soothe his lungs and stop his cough.

He calls her a block of wood to her face, and she doesn't get angry. She even smiles.

Yue Lin lounges on a chaise with one leg crossed over the other, smugness plain on his pale face. "You're being so attentive because you covet my looks, aren't you?"

With her back turned to him, Yang Yulu makes a note in the ledger: ten taels for emotional damages.
