The Wife Is the Head of the Family

Shen Zhiyan is a well-known countryside content creator.

From building a shed and weaving shrimp traps to rolling up her pant legs and catching shrimp and crabs in a creek, then adding a handful or two of coarse salt and a few bundles of firewood to make a delicious meal, there's nothing she can't do.

It seems there's nothing beyond her abilities.

When she thinks about it, the only thing missing is a partner.

Her fans get excited whenever she brings it up, all volunteering to be Shen Zhiyan's partner.

"You want to be my partner? I might be open to it, but just so you know, I'm picky. My other half has to be tall and handsome. It's fine if he's fierce outside, but at home, he has to do what I say. Oh, and preferably he moves in with my family~"

But what Shen Zhiyan didn't expect was...

One second she'd just finished saying that, and the next, she had transmigrated.

She became a young married woman in a poor farming family in ancient times, one whose home was already bare and whose family was too poor to afford their next meal, despite having only just married.

Oh, but that's not the important part. The important part is... her husband, standing right in front of her, is tall, handsome, and rippling with muscles. And he married into her family.

He's also the kind who goes wherever she points and wouldn't dare go against her wishes.

Shen Zhiyan: Oh wow! Can such a good thing really happen? What is there to worry about? I was doing just fine on my own. Now I've got someone to do the heavy lifting, too. Surely we can make something of this! Getting rich? Let's do it~

But as she kept at it, somehow it all got a little too big..._(:з"∠)_

The Annals of the Ying Dynasty record:

'In the year 278 of the New Era, after three years of rebellion, the new king Xie Ying ascended the throne and renamed the country Ying. Thus began the prelude to a century of prosperity. Yet on the very day of his coronation, the new king, dressed in his imperial robes, could not sit still. He paced back and forth, hoping a palace attendant would tell him when the empress would finish getting ready...'

"Wait, you've got this wrong."

They say a new emperor starts by making a show of strength, and King Ying, born of humble origins, was more formidable than most. He had personally cut off the head of the foolish emperor of the previous dynasty.

At the thought of this, the court historians trembled even harder and stammered ingratiatingly:

"This old minister made an error with his brush. Your Majesty is wise. Please instruct this old minister..."

"Right here, this part is wrong. It wasn't that I was waiting for a palace attendant to tell me when the empress would finish getting ready. The empress kicked me out because she thought I was annoying. She wasn't like this before..."

As he spoke, the new emperor, Xie Ying, couldn't help pouting in grievance.

The gray-bearded court historians: "..."

"...Your Majesty is wise."
