[A rugged man and his sweet wife. An honest family gets the most authoritative person in charge, a man who's completely devoted to his wife.]
[The heroine is sharp-tongued. The moment something annoys her, she goes into battle mode, yelling at the male lead and anyone else who crosses her. Her top priority is never letting herself be wronged.]
After Chen Xiangrong, the youngest daughter of the Chen family in the eastern part of the village, fell into the water, she woke up with a completely different personality. She'd once been timid and meek, but now she had a razor-sharp tongue.
She'd arch her brows, seize on any malice in someone's words, and give them an earful until their face turned red and they slunk away in embarrassment.
Dou Chuan, from the southern part of the village, was the man she'd been promised to before she fell in the water. Whenever she showed off her verbal skills, he'd hesitate and look as if he wanted to say, "Please don't talk like that."
Chen Xiangrong rolled her eyes. "You're a colorless, odorless, highly toxic doormat." She turned around and got ready to divorce him.
That night, she remembered that she'd transmigrated into a period novel and decided she should get the marriage dissolved as soon as possible.
She was a modern-day celebrity fan who'd spent nine and a half of her ten years as a fan being a vicious anti-fan. How could she stay meekly in this godforsaken place and be someone's wife?
But when she turned around, she fell into the man's warm embrace.
She couldn't help reaching out to touch him.
She praised him in her head, but her vicious fan side took over and she gave him a merciless review: "You're so flabby. You're a total zero out of ten."
The man's eyes reddened. He said nothing, looking aggrieved, and quietly worked longer hours the next day.

Later, a severe drought hit and the harvest was poor. Some people still hadn't paid off their old debts, yet had the nerve to come asking for another loan.
Chen Xiangrong dragged a stool in front of the door. Dou Chuan immediately stepped behind her like a dog who'd spotted his owner, listening as his wife tore into the other person while they didn't dare talk back.
The visitor was furious. "You just let your wife push you around like that?"
Chen Xiangrong was livid. "Only I get to insult my zero-out-of-ten man. Who do you think you are, insulting my precious boy?"
The man behind her looked aggrieved. "Wife, my name isn't Precious Boy."
She was still fuming, so she slapped him, huffed, and walked away.
That night, Dou Chuan knelt at her feet and pleaded:
"Wife, you can call me whatever you want. I wasn't trying to upset you this afternoon."
She pressed down with her foot until the man's face flushed and he let out a muffled groan. Then she pretended nothing had happened and went to bed.
