Raising a Husband in the Seventies

An Nianjiu got married.

Tricked by her younger cousin, she had no choice but to marry Yang Yi, the village layabout who was good-looking but lazy, idle, and utterly useless.

Yang Yi was the envy of everyone in the area for marrying An Nianjiu, a hardworking, capable, and beautiful woman. He was delighted, too.

When An Nianjiu went to work in the fields and brought him flowers, he didn't think anything of it.

When An Nianjiu went up the mountain to gather firewood and brought him wild fruit, he began to feel that something was a little off.

When An Nianjiu went to the market in town and brought him tasty treats, he finally realized what was wrong.

Yang Yi thought with a livid expression: Isn't this exactly how the boy next door woos his wife?!

An Nianjiu, who had transmigrated here from a matriarchal world, wondered in dismay: Why has my husband suddenly changed?

Before, her husband would wait obediently at home for her to return (being lazy and idle), keeping himself fair and plump (doing nothing all day). He left everything for her to do (because he was completely useless).

Now he was always rushing to do things with her.

An Nianjiu: This is just too hard for me.

Ye Taotao noticed that ever since her young child-husband had fallen gravely ill and woken up, he seemed to have become a different person.

Not only did he say all sorts of strange things, he was lazy and kept stealing food from the family.

He also kept trying to hit her and run away.

But he was the child-husband her parents had brought home for her in exchange for a sack of grain. After her clansmen seized their house and drove them out, he was the only thing her parents had left her.

"Do you want to die? If you run away, you'll die out there."

Later, she carried her child-husband back after someone had beaten him nearly to death, sighing to herself.

It was hard enough for two children like them to survive, and her child-husband's illness was getting worse. What could she do?

Fortunately, she still had a plot of land.
