The Butcher’s Beautiful Husband

Rugged, tough yet thoughtful butcher gong x clever, perceptive, beautiful beauty ge'er shou Wang Xuan is the town butcher. He's rough-looking and powerfully built, and when he scowls and glares, he can make children burst into tears. One evening, as he was closing up his stall, a young ge'er suddenly collapsed in front of it. Wang Xuan hurried over in alarm to check on him, pinching his philtrum, splashing cold water on him, and trying every method he could think of. Who would have thought the young ge'er would wake up and say, "You saved me, didn't you, benefactor? I can never repay you for saving my life. I am willing to..." Then he fainted again. Wang Xuan was waiting to hear what he would say next. Was he willing to "give himself to him" or to "be his ox or horse in the next life to repay him"? Later, Wang Xuan learned the answer: the former. When Qiao Zhao woke up and saw how concerned the butcher was, he thought, This butcher must think I'm good-looking and have taken a fancy to me. I might as well latch onto him. Then I'll have plenty of good food, and I can eat meat every day. So he looked at Wang Xuan with red-rimmed eyes and a pitiful expression. "Big brother, do you have a wife? If not, what do you think of me?" Wang Xuan was stunned. This was the first time anyone had said they wanted to be his wife. He had to say yes. He might never get another chance like this. "You're wonderful. You're just a little thin, so you need to put on some weight. But once you marry me, there'll be plenty of meat." Qiao Zhao's eyes sparkled. As long as there was meat, that was all that mattered. He quickly asked, "So, does that mean you agree?" Wang Xuan nodded. Qiao Zhao hurriedly asked, "When are you coming to propose? My family lives in the next lane over from you, the third house from the left. Oh, and don't give them too much in betrothal gifts. My stepmother treats me badly, so don't let them benefit from it." Wang Xuan was stunned all over again. Someone was actually eager to marry him. It was as if red rain were falling from the sky and smoke were rising from his ancestors' graves. Important notes: 1. The story centers on the shou. It features a System, and he builds wealth with a Chinese cuisine System. 2. There is childbirth, in the final chapters and bonus chapters. 3. A slow-paced food story about everyday family life. Theme: A good life takes continual effort to achieve. A joke comes true, and they become each other's motivation to work hard.
