[Blurb]

Jian Yanzhi accidentally transmigrates into a book, becoming a sickly, helpless scholar who has to depend on others for a roof over his head.

Afraid he might die young, his family marries him off to a poor household's young husband to bring him good luck.

The villagers watch the spectacle and gossip behind their backs. Marrying a man with one foot in the grave? The poor thing will be a widow before long.

Who would have guessed that the young husband would bring such good luck? Not only does he knock some sense into the scholar's stubborn head, but he also helps him rise through the ranks until he becomes a powerful official at court.

Jian Yanzhi drags his determined-but-ailing body over to pin his young husband against the headboard, coughing and wheezing. "My dear Ali, let's have a few more babies while I'm still alive. Otherwise, no one will inherit the more than thirty pharmacies in our family."

Shen Yili: "…"

So they've already had children. Why hasn't this sickly man died yet?

--

Shen Yili comes from a poor family, and he's good at raising all kinds of livestock and poultry. When he learns that he's to marry the village's sickly man to bring him good luck, he can't help feeling secretly pleased.

He's never raised a sickly man before, but surely it's not much different from raising chickens, ducks, and geese.

Well, worth a try…

He thinks the sickly man will die before long, but to his surprise, the frail, handsome husband gets healthier and healthier under his care.

Not only is he good at studying the classics, but he also works hard and starts writing romantic stories.

Shen Yili looks at his swollen belly and sighs again and again. "You really shouldn't raise a sickly man carelessly. One little mistake, and suddenly you've got a whole nest of them."

Jian Yanzhi: "Don't worry, dear Ali. Now it's your husband's turn to take care of you."

1. A lively, robust man who keeps saying he's about to die but never does, with a stubborn constitution, gong & a virtuous, thoughtful shou who's great at raising chickens, ducks, and sickly men

2. Both leads are each other's first and only. HE

3. Childbirth story (the children appear very little, practically not at all)

4. I have no sense of logic. This is an alternate-world imperial-examination-era story. Whatever settings and official ranks appear are up to fate, so please don't scrutinize them too closely.

Thank you so much for your support!

Pre-release: The Bad-Tempered Husband Is Not to Be Trifled With

[Blurb]

Wen Ziyu was too timid and too easily swayed in his previous life. His father's concubine tricked him into marrying a poor scholar in town as his husband.

The poor scholar looked decent enough, but behind closed doors he was domineering, depraved, and lustful, abusing Wen Ziyu until he died.

Reborn, Wen Ziyu swears he'll never let anyone bully him again!

After the poor scholar is disgraced and dies horribly in the street, the neighbors start gossiping. They say the Wen family's young master is too fierce, and probably won't be easy to marry off. He'll likely end up alone for life.

Some busybodies even set up a betting pool, wagering on who can pluck this thorny flower.

Wen Ziyu ignores them all. He grabs a big wooden stick and cracks open the skulls of one marriage prospect after another, all coveting his family's property.

Shen Mingxuan considers himself hard to kill. Dressed in splendid clothes, he makes a grand entrance, blocking Wen Ziyu's doorway as he waves a jade-handled folding fan.

"I hear the young master of the Wen family has come of age, but no one dares marry him. As it happens, I have an unusual constitution, thick skin, and can take a beating. Surely I am the match Heaven has chosen for you."

Wen Ziyu: So there's still someone who doesn't know when to quit? Come on, let's see how thick your skin is and how much of a beating you can take.

Shen Mingxuan never expected to be reborn after dying.

In his previous life, both his parents died early. He was young and easy to bully, and his relatives deceived him. After he squandered all his money, he was reduced to begging for a living.

One day, someone beat him until he was covered in blood and couldn't get up. A gentle, timid young master stepped in to save him.

Shen Mingxuan later learned that the young master was married to a poor scholar. The scholar was a nasty man, and the young master's life with him was miserable. Sadly, Shen Mingxuan died before he could rescue him.

Starting over, Shen Mingxuan no longer trusts his relatives' so-called help. He protects his family property and makes his own way in life.

When he learns the young master isn't engaged yet, he immediately dresses to impress and goes to propose.

He never expected the gentle, timid young master from his memories to now wield a staff with such bold, dashing skill.

Shen Mingxuan points to his forehead and grins like he's asking for a beating. "Excellent. I have no other talents, but my head is hard as a rock."

1. A shameless, irritating gong who gets itchy if he goes a day without being beaten & a sharp-tongued but soft-hearted shou who turns meek and sweet after a kiss, not actually bad-tempered

2. Both are reborn. Two people starved for love warm each other's hearts.

3. Both leads are each other's first and only (the shou was married in his previous life, but the poor scholar was impotent).
