[Blurb]
Bai Yu is the most pampered young man in Baishui Village. His motto in life: If he can lie down, he absolutely won't sit up.
When pressed to marry, he says with complete confidence, "Marry a man, and you'll have clothes to wear and food to eat!"
If he can't give me a comfortable life, it's a no-go!
Then he hears that Xia Zishen, the supposedly "incapable" man from the neighboring village, is looking for a wife. The bride price is one hundred yuan, and his wife won't even have to work in the fields!
Bai Yu's eyes light up at once.
Isn't this the perfect meal ticket for life, tailor-made for me?
A man of action, Bai Yu immediately goes to "recommend" himself. "Hey, Xia Zishen, what do you think of me?"
Xia Zishen looks at the fair, dazzling young man before him, so delicate he seems as if he might break at a touch. He furrows his brow. "You know what my situation is, don't you?"
"Of course!" Bai Yu nods vigorously, counting on his fingers. "You're handsome, good at hard work, and your family is well-off. Most importantly, I won't have to work in the fields! You're perfect!"
Xia Zishen: "..." He can't even argue with that.
