Life After Marrying a Tycoon in a Period Novel: Taking It Easy

Blurb One: Ji Xiangyu dies from overwork after working 996, then transmigrates into a book.

She becomes the muddleheaded sister-in-law who is cannon fodder to the heroine. Not only does she take her younger brother's place as a sent-down youth, but as soon as she marries the heroine's older brother, Shen Wu, she sends her bride price back to her family to pay for her brother's house.

She even secretly sends Shen Wu's generous military allowance back to her family.

In the end, she and her child starve to death on a bitterly cold winter night, with no one to bury them. Shen Wu's allowance arrives in the mail, and the postman finds them!

Ji Xiangyu: ...

And right now, Shen Wu is taking her into town to mail her bride price home!

Mail what? Isn't a mouthful of white rice better? Isn't a mouthful of red-braised pork better?

Ji Xiangyu sizes up Shen Wu. He's tall and handsome, wearing a crisp uniform, with a straight posture and a stern air. She likes what she sees at first glance.

After she joins the army...

She holds her aching waist and finally understands what it means to be good at sweet-talking but never stopping.

Blurb Two: The daughter from the Ji family who took her younger brother's place as a sent-down youth has returned to the city.

Her clothes are covered in patches, her face is rough and sallow, and she's holding a baby, but there's no man with her.

Everyone's eyes immediately change. A phoenix fallen to earth is no better than a chicken. The beautiful high school girl they once knew has finally been dragged down into the mud.

Her younger brother takes her hand, his face full of concern. "You've suffered so much all these years. If your husband treats you badly, we don't need him. Old Zhang from the next village is mature and dependable. Marry him, and his family will give you three hundred yuan in bride price! Then you'll eat well and drink well, and your little one can have malted milk, too!"

Ji Xiangyu smiles calmly and takes a university admission letter from her pocket.

Everyone gasps: The National University!

A moment later, a man in a crisp uniform, his gaze piercing, stands beside her.

Everyone: ?

1. An everyday, slice-of-life farming story about family and village matters. A satisfying read.

2. The whole novel is written in advance. Updates follow the rankings before it goes premium, then daily updates afterward.

3. I'm obsessed with revising. Updates are scheduled for midnight. Anything posted at another time is a revision.

Upcoming novel on my author page: Reborn: The Little Restaurant of the Nineties

Blurb: After returning to 1990, Yan Qingzhi is once again a lovely eighteen-year-old.

This year, she hasn't lost her hearing, Lu Huaiyu hasn't broken his leg, her father hasn't died in the line of duty, and her mother hasn't transferred ownership of the family restaurant.

Everything seems just right.

Yan Qingzhi ties up her long hair and uses her clever hands to make the little restaurant thrive.

She brings Lu Huaiyu, dressed in a black leather jacket with long hair, to meet her parents. Her father yanks her ear and shouts, "What, bringing your dad a promotion?"

Yan Qingzhi pleads, "Dad, he's not like other boys!"

In her previous life, she thought he was no good and never gave him the time of day. But whenever danger struck, he was the one who protected her, again and again.

In this life, she's willing to be the darling he calls his own and cherish him.
