Wifey, Look at Me

Shen Mingyao, a pampered modern young woman, transmigrates to ancient times, where her background is full of hardships. In just two or three years, life makes her shrewd and worldly. Wei Chu was born into a prominent family, but as a member of a collateral branch, he looks prosperous when he goes out while barely scraping by at home. To live with dignity, the two use their connections to build several businesses together and earn themselves a little renown. After Shen Mingyao comes of age, she chooses a young gentleman from a good family, one whose household enjoys a comfortable life. Wei Chu says, "Live with an idiot long enough, and you'll become stupid too!" Since that won't do, Shen Mingyao turns around and takes a look at a clever one instead. Wei Chu objects again: "If you get together with him, you won't be able to sleep without one eye open. By morning, your business will belong to him." An idiot won't do, and a clever man won't do either, so Shen Mingyao decides to find herself a military man. Wei Chu grits his teeth. "You went to all that trouble to leave the frontier and come to the capital, and now you're choosing a military man because you miss home?" Shen Mingyao sighs. "Choosing a man is so hard. I want to take a break." Wei Chu corners her in the silver vault, no longer concealing the affection in his eyes. "Your eyes keep looking elsewhere. When will you notice the person right beside you?" The silver in Shen Mingyao's hands clatters to the floor. "Didn't we agree to look out for each other? How can you be thinking about keeping it in the family?" Coming soon: My Wife Brings Honor.
