Ning Jing transmigrated into a book as a terrible mama's boy, a kept man, and a scummy male lead. His mother was a vicious mother-in-law, and at his side was a husband who seemed like an aloof beauty but was actually soft and sweet.
The original Ning Jing came from a poor family. After marrying a little rich husband, he set his sights on his dowry and made the poor young man anxious and fearful.
Ning Jing was exhausted. His vicious mother kept pressuring his husband to hand over the dowry, so in desperation he came up with a roundabout plan.
Ning Jing: For the sake of my son's reputation as a scholar, we can pretend to treat him well first, coax him into handing over his dowry of his own accord, and get the money without damaging our reputation. Doesn't that kill two birds with one stone?
Vicious Mother: My son is right. So that's why you were being nice to him! My son really does think ahead!
His husband, eavesdropping beneath the window: !!! QAQ
Some time later...
Ning Jing, who had been given silver: ?
Husband: If your kindness to me is just an act, then keep acting for the rest of your life. I'll work hard to earn money and support you!
A gentle, refined scholar wearing a mask suddenly appeared in a small town. The stories he told were captivating...
The Legend of the White Snake, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, Investiture of the Gods, the Primordial World, tales of cultivation...
More and more people came to listen to the scholar's stories, then spread them far and wide.
Some called him Mr. Ning, some called him the Storyteller, and others revered him as the Hua Xia Hermit...
Gradually, people noticed that his stories focused on disasters and calamities. He described the horrors of all kinds of disasters and even taught people how to prevent them and survive...
Then disaster struck...
After the disaster, someone exposed Ning Jing for faking his academic credentials.
Someone: Ning Jing cheated in the imperial examinations...
The Court: He deserves to be made a marquis and appointed chancellor. Scholar Ning is both virtuous and talented, his writing surpasses the ages, and he is a model for the court and a blessing to the people of the realm!
Someone: ??
Ning Jing, with his secret identity exposed: -.-
