A Delicate Beauty Arrives at the Compound in the Seventies

Shi Ying was beautiful and delicate. One day, she transmigrated to the hungry, threadbare 1970s and became a cannon-fodder character in a melodramatic period novel.

The original owner had grown up pampered by her family, even in the countryside. But she foolishly tried to seduce her cousin's educated youth sweetheart, ruining her reputation and meeting a tragic end.

After learning the plot, Shi Ying was utterly speechless. She absolutely wouldn't follow the original owner's path, and she wasn't about to let herself be tossed aside as cannon fodder either. Her eyes fell on the marriage match her grandfather had arranged for her with an army officer.

Her prospective husband would become a top military figure. He had a good family background and bright prospects, and was tall, long-legged, and nearly flawless in appearance. But he had suffered a grave injury on the battlefield and would never be able to father children.

Unable to have children? Shi Ying smiled faintly. What others saw as a flaw, even a serious one, was practically perfect for someone like her, who just wanted to lie flat and enjoy a good life.

Despite her entire family opposing the match, she insisted on marrying him.

After the wedding, she moved with her husband into a two-story house in the residential compound. Sure enough, she got to enjoy delicious food and a comfortable life every day.

Her husband was cold by nature, but he handed over his pay and took care of the housework. Still, they'd agreed he would focus on his career and rarely come home. So why was he coming back more and more often? And what Shi Ying found even harder to explain was that he had... incredible stamina!

She'd assumed that although her husband couldn't father children, that wouldn't get in the way of the other thing.

But why was her belly getting bigger by the day, even as she had to hold her aching waist? Shi Ying angrily grabbed her husband's hair.
