The Herb-Picking Woman: A Wife Must Never Be Bullied

My historical-era novel The Demon Venerable Raises a Family in the Seventies is currently updating, and there’s already plenty to read. Come on in~ Blurb: Yan Jiuru awakened to the consciousness of a powerful Demon Venerable. One of the Nine Great Immortals and Demons, he had transformed his body into a spell during the war between realms a hundred thousand years ago, holding back the space-time storm caused by the Boundary-Breaking Pearl. His soul was devoured, and when he woke again, he had become a villager in Xinghua Village in the New Nation. Even more unbelievable, after being single for more than a hundred thousand years, the mighty Demon Venerable now had a wife and child, and was a big, scruffy man! The hungry Demon Venerable rolled up his sleeves and got to work. Hmph! Earning money to support his family (gathering spirit stones and demon stones and becoming the boss) was something he could definitely do!!! ++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++ Blurb: A certain woman lives in seclusion in the mountains, making a living by gathering herbs. After coming down from the mountain, she marries the older bachelor Chu Xu and begins a lively new life beyond the mountains. Is there domestic infighting? Is there palace intrigue? The woman stands with her hands behind her back, her aura spreading as she narrows her eyes slightly. “Domestic infighting? Palace intrigue? Hmph! When you can crush all you ordinary people with sheer strength, what’s there to fight about?” Reading notes: 1. This is a fictional setting. All sorts of things that don’t make sense come from the author’s wild imagination, so don’t try to match them up with history or reality. 2. This story is somewhat lighthearted and somewhat satisfying. There are no truly bad people and no insufferably self-sacrificing saints. The characters are straight, and both the male and female leads are pure in body and mind. The female lead is especially good at dealing with creatures like old ladies... 3. If you have different thoughts or opinions, feel free to leave a comment and discuss them. Please be rational. The author reserves the right to let their imagination run wild. 4. Updated daily, 3,000+ words. 5. Please don’t use ranking spoilers. I also recommend my completed novel, Zhu Lingyi’s Daily Life in Ancient Times! Blurb: On an alien planet, Zhu Lingyi, squad leader of the Special Forces at Yaori Base, discovers during a battle with a demon plant that it intends to self-destruct its third-grade demon core. A third-grade demon core would be devastating enough, but even a low-grade sixth-grade core could leave nothing standing within a hundred miles and keep the land barren for decades. Self-destruction was absolutely out of the question. Though they opened their eyes every day to more bloody battles and had grown numb to life and death, she still couldn’t let such a catastrophe happen. With no time to think, Zhu Lingyi activated her teleportation ability and flung herself toward it... She thought she was certain to die. But after being tempered in a hellish ordeal of ice and fire, Zhu Lingyi not only survived, she was reborn in a new world. There were blue skies and white clouds, green mountains and clear waters, birdsong and fragrant flowers. Everything was as beautiful as in a legend. When she was hungry, she could roast fish, chicken, or meat, and even boil wild chicken eggs. When she was thirsty, there was mountain spring water. Surely even immortals couldn’t ask for a better life? But you can’t live without clothes, and when that time of the month comes, leaves just won’t do, either, will they? Zhu Lingyi admitted that surviving and living were different things, and some problems really couldn’t be overcome alone. Even someone as powerful as her still needed to cooperate and trade... Another xianxia-style story somewhat related to this one: A Good Match! Blurb: Raised freely in the countryside, the little girl Jiaoyue has a childhood sweetheart and several childhood friends who are boys. But one of them is a little different. Ahem, they grew up running around naked together! Wei Feng didn’t think much of it when they were young, but the older he got, the more he felt he couldn’t let this girl show herself to everyone for free. Better to take her home! People of the day all say that Marquis Yingyang is cold and arrogant, but he spoils his wife without limit! Jiaoyue snorts. “Who spoils whom? We need to have a proper discussion about that.” Wei Feng glances at the sky. “In such a hurry? It’s not even dark yet! But that’s no problem. We can start right now...” Theme: When you can crush everyone with sheer strength, you’ll discover even more of life’s beauty
