The Little Husband I Picked Up [Matriarchy]

[Male pregnancy / GB]

After transmigrating, Li Changyi, a master's graduate in history, lands in a matriarchal world as a frail scholar from a poor family, with no ability to defend herself.

With a long road ahead and no one to rely on, she draws on her extensive knowledge of history to plan every step carefully. She starts by securing her own food and shelter, then sets her sights on passing the civil service exams and earning a stable future.

One day, while out by chance, she rescues a disheveled, destitute man from the streets of a world in turmoil.

The youth has exquisite features, but is reduced to a sorry mess. With tears in his eyes, he begs for nothing more than a place to stay.

Moved by compassion, Li Changyi takes him in, treats him with respect, and gives him shelter and protection.

Who would have thought the little husband she'd picked up would be thoughtful in every way?

He cooks delicious meals, sews well-fitting clothes, grinds ink to perfection, and is gentle and considerate, warming her bed night after night.

Li Changyi sails through the civil service exams, rising steadily through the ranks and enjoying boundless success.

Everyone around her urges her to find a husband from a more prestigious family and discard her lowborn, long-suffering partner.

Yet every time, Li Changyi simply smiles and shakes her head, her eyes filled with tenderness for one person alone.

In the dead of night, lamplight flickers.

A beautiful woman sits at her desk reading by night, while a handsome youth kneels obediently at her knees, his fingertips gently stroking the jade bangle his wife gave him. His voice is warm and devout:

"Wife... I love you."
