Zhou Luo transmigrates into a novel called The Chaotic Era of Great Yu. Because of her unusual birth chart, the Gao Ling family chose the original owner to be Gao Ling Ke's "lucky bride," making her a textbook sacrificial pawn.
According to their agreement, if Gao Ling Ke recovers, she will receive a thousand taels of gold and a divorce letter.
Zhou Luo, who struggled to get by in her previous life, is immediately dazzled by the prospect: A thousand taels!
But soon, a chill runs down her back. According to the novel, the original owner turned the Gao Ling household upside down. Gao Ling Ke eventually coughed up blood and died, and Zhou Luo died with him. She has only six months left before she is buried!
Forget a thousand taels of gold. All she's getting is a burial in the dirt!
Zhou Luo quickly comes to her senses. She doesn't want to cause a fuss. She needs to find a way to get that whatever-his-name-is better as soon as possible!
All she wants is gold and a divorce letter!

Gao Ling Ke is an oddball. Everyone else in the Gao Ling family is a military officer, but he's a sickly weakling who likes reading, tending flowers, doing carpentry... He gets into all sorts of things, and ends up ruining half his life in the process.
Everyone thinks Gao Ling Ke's health is improving because of his lucky marriage, but nobody knows that he came from six months in the future, or that his frail body is all an act.
After he comes to his senses, Gao Ling Ke discovers that his lucky bride is a real talent!
She's strong, clever, and great at everything: carrying logs, planing boards, cooking, drawing blueprints...
Zhou Luo: What a coincidence. I know all your little tricks!
-
For the sake of a thousand taels and her freedom, Zhou Luo goes along with everything Gao Ling Ke asks. His mood improves, and naturally, so does his health.
Later, when Gao Ling Ke, looking rosy-cheeked, finally gets to his feet, Zhou Luo eagerly says, "Write the divorce letter!"
Thinking of how she'll soon be free, with a thousand taels of gold to boot, Zhou Luo laughs with delight.
But then...
Gao Ling Ke says with a straight face, "I'm cured. Now we can consummate the marriage."
Zhou Luo: !!!
Coming soon: Husband, Spare Me! (Matriarchal Society)
"Wife, let me blow on it for you!"
"Wife, let me massage your back!"
"Wife, I..."
Xu Yuan: "..."
Xu Yuan transmigrates into a matriarchal novel as the villainess. That's not the problem. The problem is, what is she supposed to do about the beautiful, delicate husband in front of her?
The original owner was wicked, had a string of lovers, and eventually became a stepping stone for the heroine. When she died, this husband even stabbed her!
Xu Yuan works out that there's still time to change things!
She puts a divorce agreement in front of her husband. "Let's part on good terms and never see each other again!"
But the beauty changes expression, tears up the agreement, and grabs her by the ear. "Want to leave? Not so fast!"

In his previous life, Zhou Wei suffered every kind of hardship. Now that he's living a second life, he certainly isn't going to let Xu Yuan off so easily.
Picky eater? I'll make only the things you hate!
You insult me? I'll throw every insult right back at you!
You go to the brothel? I'll break your legs first!
But his wife has stopped being picky, stopped insulting him, stopped going to the brothel, and stopped talking about divorce!
Zhou Wei: So she likes a man who can stand up to her?!

Xu Yuan: It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! Staying alive is what matters. Let's just make the best of it!
Theme: Stay true to your original intentions and strive for happiness
After chasing, leave a mark...
Xiao Ke: Daughter-in-law, don't abandon me, I need you~~~~ (Erkang's hand)
Xiao Ke can use the beauty trap.
Oops, I won the lottery, thank you so much
The author wrote it very well, but did the male and female protagonists call each other too intimate all of a sudden? Doesn't the male protagonist think that the female protagonist poisoned him in his previous life? Logically speaking, you wouldn't be so close to her?
