Chengde and Nanning

In the autumn of the fifth year of the apocalypse, Zhao Chengde turned twenty-seven. Squatting at the edge of his field, he looked over his three and a half mu of private land, where he had just finished cutting the sweet potato vines, and the three-story house behind him. Then he counted once more the daily necessities he had stockpiled in his space before the apocalypse began. He decided to find himself a little wife who could keep his bed warm, and take good care of her.

A pure natural-disaster apocalypse story, a quiet farming tale, with a danmei couple and a space.

The story will be available for purchase on May 12, 2018. The whole novel will probably be under 300,000 words. Buying the complete work costs only about as much as a cup of milk tea, so please support the author by purchasing the official version, dear readers~

Thank you, everyone, for staying with me along the way. Tomorrow, I’ll send little red envelopes to the first 100 readers who leave a two-point review on a paid chapter.

"A Lady Too Lovely to Bully":

After three years of marriage and three years of mourning, Pu Youqing, confined to the inner household, had lost heart. With her slender, pale fingers, she took stock of the vast dowry in the storeroom, then rummaged through it and pulled out some money to take with her and her son when they left.

But just as the mourning period she had been longing to see end was finally over, before she could load her trunks and boxes onto a carriage and return to Jiangnan, her supposedly dead general husband came back. From then on, his fortunes soared and he rose higher and higher...

Pu Youqing rubbed her aching temples. Was the letter of divorce, signed on her behalf by her husband's family and now in her arms, still valid?

"Reborn in Space: A Wrongful Marriage":

Fei Jiao was delicate and soft, her fair, supple skin so lovely it made people ache to dote on her. Though she bore the unpleasant reputation of being the daughter of a concubine, her generous dowry still brought a steady stream of marriage proposals.

Before her loving mother died of illness, she carefully chose a good match for her: a poor farmer's scholar son. But Fei Jiao was hurried into marriage during the mourning period, and only after the marriage was consummated did she learn that she had been wed to the scholar's widowed second brother instead. Her husband's family was mercenary. They had decided that her family was too lowly to offer them any help, so they had secretly switched the groom!

Reborn once more, Fei Jiao has a space no bigger than her palm. She has no time to think about anything else and is set on escaping this poor, despicable farming family first.

"The Sewer World After the Apocalypse":

In the world of the future, buildings are weathered and collapsing, resources are scarce and hard to come by, and the climate is changing in abnormal ways. As people's living conditions grow ever worse, buried underground and still intact, systems such as the sewers become humanity's last refuge.

Female lead: Fussy to a fault, likes muscular men, turns into a timid little pushover the moment trouble arises.

Male lead: Manly, a native.

"A Concubine's Son, Yet No Less the Heir":

Wang Yang is the youngest son born to a concubine in the Xie Shangshu household in Yanjing, adopted into the family of his maternal grandfather, a wealthy merchant in the south. But fate is unpredictable. One day, he suddenly receives a letter from his father's family ordering him to return to the clan at once.

Wang Yang pays it no heed. He carries on prospecting for mines, buying up fields, and doing business, making a roaring success of it. But the urgent letters demanding his return keep arriving like snowflakes in winter, each one more pressing than the last.

And so, one day in the northern-central capital of Yanjing, a proud young gentleman arrives from the south. There is nothing he cannot do, whether carving jade, playing the flute, riding horses, or fighting crickets...
