Everyday Life in the Mountains with My Childhood Friend

A straightforward, innocent young man who is desperate to marry * A sulky, flirtatious retired soldier who plays hard to get Sang Ye is an orphan who keeps his little house on a cliff in perfect order. He raises chickens in the backyard and fish in the pond out front. Bountiful vegetable harvests and sunrises over a sea of clouds are simply part of everyday life. With everything this perfect, he has no desire to marry out. When Sang Ye announces that he wants a husband to marry into his family, everyone laughs themselves silly. An orphan from the mountains with just a tiny plot of land, and he wants a husband to marry into his family? Even if he were as beautiful as a celestial being, that wouldn't put food on the table. They laugh at Sang Ye for having ambitions higher than the sky and a body worth less than grass. Sang Ye has met every eligible prospect in the surrounding villages and still hasn't found anyone he likes. He's picky even about a husband marrying into his family. The aunties are all worried for him and urge him to lower his standards. Qin Zhao, who recently returned from the army, seems like a decent choice. Sang Ye: Qin Zhao? When they were kids, Qin Zhao went swimming in the river, and Sang Ye stole his clothes and hung them high in a tree. When Qin Zhao went to relieve himself in the fields, Sang Ye sent a dog after his backside. And in front of the entire village, young and old, Sang Ye beat Qin Zhao until he ran for his life. That loser who was once beaten black and blue? Sang Ye would never want him. But the moment he sees Qin Zhao in person, with his long, powerful arms, narrow waist, long legs, broad shoulders, and impressive chest, Sang Ye says, “Brother, would you consider marrying into my family?” Qin Zhao glares coldly. “Not even a dog would marry you.” When the village kids played house as children, Qin Zhao never got to play Sang Ye's husband. They got into a huge fight over it, making Qin Zhao Sang Ye's only sworn enemy in the village. Now that they're grown, Sang Ye still can't find a husband and wants someone to marry into his family. Qin Zhao thinks the perfect chance for revenge has finally arrived. Later, their little house on the cliff looks like a distant paradise. Bright chrysanthemums bloom by the bamboo fence, chickens and ducks fill the yard, and dogs bark as children chase one another and laugh. Their life is lively and prosperous. Sang Ye is lounging in a bamboo chair, swinging his legs, when a pair of muscular arms lifts him into the air. In broad daylight, you shameless turtle-shell-wearing lecher! Sang Ye glares down at him. “Put me down, Qin Big Dog!” Qin Zhao: “Woof, woof! No!” “I'll never put you down, not in this lifetime.” He's already spent his whole life getting revenge. How could he possibly let go? Content warning: The recipient is a carefree, happy puppy who says whatever comes to mind without thinking. The pursuer is a sulky, flirtatious man who chases and teases, then turns him down (because of his personality). There's a push-and-pull courtship, and they get together at 100,000 words.

A new story I'm seeking follows for, please add it to your favorites 《Setting Up a Stall to Raise the Villain》 The great villain sucks his entire clan dry to get an education, then turns around and cuts ties with them and betrays his sect. After gaining power, he despises his original partner for being lowborn and torments them to death. After placing third in the imperial exams, he is also snatched up as a husband by someone waiting outside the exam hall. A selfish, opportunistic man, he uses his connections to become the all-powerful chief grand secretary. Lin Xiling is so furious after reading this that he writes a thousand-word scathing review. The court is corrupt and inept, and foreign forces are closing in outside the city gates. The nobles and officials flee the city with their foolish emperor. Only the great villain, a mere civil official, steps forward to defend the gates for over two months, giving the people a chance to escape. When the city falls, the great villain is torn apart by five horses, and his head is hung above the city gate. Lin Xiling's feelings are complicated after reading that. He deletes his thousand-word scathing review and writes a ten-thousand-word character biography instead. Lin Xiling gets mobbed online. “Do you even understand what you read? You defend men like this so well. I hope you transmigrate into the miserable child-husband of a scumbag!” Lin Xiling: If I could transmigrate, I'd raise the great villain properly from the very beginning. Lin Xiling tosses out the thought, then wakes up to feel someone tugging at his hand. He opens his eyes to see a child with a grimy, wrinkled face and tattered clothes, holding out a bowl of dark, murky porridge. “Big brother, please don't die. Don't die. Eat a little, and you won't be hungry.” Lin Xiling takes a deep breath. From then on, he forages for wild greens, sets up a cooking stall, and works from dawn until late at night to raise the child. He not only pays for his education and imperial exams, but also bathes the little villain in the red spring breeze of love. He tells the little villain that if you don't love someone, don't hurt them, and promises to ask for a divorce as soon as the boy passes the exams. At last, the great villain places first in the palace examination. Lin Xiling looks at the handsome young man, resplendent in fine clothes and riding proudly on horseback, and feels he can finally retire with a job well done. Xie Wenyin's eyes turn red. “Does Big Brother think little Wenyin has been bad?” “I'll change anything you want me to, Big Brother.” Lin Xiling backs away in alarm. “Put down those chains first!” Where did things go wrong? Why am I still being cast aside once I'm no longer useful? Wait... You, you little brat! What have you hidden against my backside?! #The villain always looks at me strangely. I've showered him with so much love, so why can't I change him? # #Forced to raise a villain, then accidentally becoming a wealthy merchant# Theme: Be your own sun, and the whole world will come to kiss you
