Who Told You I'm a Delicate Husband? (Women-Run World)

Yu Qiuye, a recent accounting graduate, ranked near the bottom of the million-strong job-seeker pool.

He dozed off on his electric scooter between food-delivery runs. When he opened his eyes, he had become a male educated youth in the Xigang Production Brigade in the 1970s.

His 180-centimeter, lean-and-muscular, handsome self had shrunk to 173 centimeters and a skinny frame. He glanced down at his pants (and cried).

What? A matriarchy? Men stay home?

Oh, for... and this is a fictional setting, too!

Since he was there, he decided to make the best of it. But this body was frail and his pretty face made people think he was an easy target, so everyone took turns picking on him.

He couldn't take it anymore!

He punched bullies and kicked sleazy hooligans. The brigade's famous punching bag became a fiery little pepper.

But he never imagined that some people would be into that.

One day, someone cornered him behind a haystack and asked him to go steady.

Yu Qiuye flew into a rage.

In his previous life, he'd been a real man who could hold up the sky. Fine, this time he'd been reborn as a delicate little thing, but was he really going to let a woman cling to him too?

He grabbed Zhang Xun, who happened to be passing by, and told the other person, "This is my partner."

Yu Qiuye thought he'd found an easy-to-handle blockhead to use as a decoy. He had no idea that this blockhead had a devious side.

Looking at Zhang Xun's tall, brawny build, he shook his head. "I like the delicate, dependent type."

Later, Zhang Xun pinned him against a wall, kissed him and felt him up, then held Yu Qiuye's face and smiled innocently. "Who do you like?"

Yu Qiuye blushed and answered in a barely audible voice, "I-I like you..."

Later still, after they married and he got pregnant, Yu Qiuye nestled limply in her arms and whimpered, "Wife, my leg hurts~"

When the college entrance exams were reinstated in 1977, Yu Qiuye studied while raising their child.

Zhang Xun said, "It's fine if you don't pass. I'll support you."

Yu Qiuye said, "Who do you think you're looking down on?"

[Reading Guide]

1. Both leads are virgins, one-on-one romance. Their body structures don't change, and men can get pregnant.

2. Only the forms of address are changed, not the characters. There are countless great matriarchal romances out there, so let's give each other a break.

3. The male lead is a modern straight man, and only halfway assimilated. He'll probably compromise for love... maybe.

4. The main story contains lots of pregnancy and child-rearing scenes. This one is highlighted.
