The Husband Takes the Lead

Synopsis: After having three daughters, Old Man Ye finally had a son. But when he started looking for a wife for his son at sixteen, he discovered that his tall, strapping boy was actually a ge'er.

To keep the Ye family line from dying out, Old Man Ye and his husband discussed it and found Ye Xiaoliu a husband who would marry into the family.

It was hard to find a groom willing to marry into another family, so in the end Old Man Ye chose the youngest son of the Qin family in the neighboring village.

Ye Xiaoliu was still wandering around town with his gang of underlings when his father hauled him home. He was made to greet the groom, bow at the wedding ceremony, and enter the bridal chamber. The moment he lifted the groom’s veil, Ye Xiaoliu’s vision went black.

Ye Xiaoliu was the village bully of Liu Family Village.

Qin Wentian was the village bully of Qin Family Village.

They had fought countless times over territory. Two village bullies together could only end badly.

Qin Wentian was tied up like a parcel and seated on the wedding bed. Ye Xiaoliu immediately swung a fist at his face.

“Damn it, I’d rather let the Ye family line die out than let you top me.”

Qin Wentian: “I’d rather top a sow than you.”

After Qin Wentian moved in, the Ye family was thrown into chaos, and even their house got smashed up.

Old Man Ye wiped away his tears and said to his husband, “You can’t force a melon to be sweet. We should send Xiaotian back!” He had barely finished speaking when Ye Xiaoliu came hurrying in from outside and kicked the door open. Afraid the young couple would start fighting, the two old men were just about to stop them when they heard Ye Xiaoliu’s clingy, obedient voice: “Husband, why did you take so long to come back? I missed you so much.”

“Then I’ll give you a kiss.”

“You’re so naughty~”

Old Man Ye shuddered: “…”

Ye Xiaoliu felt like he spent his whole life walking on eggshells. The “wife” he’d married had fists as big as sandbags. He couldn’t beat him, and his “wife” kept threatening to run back to his parents’ home every few days. At long last, his “wife” stopped making a fuss and learned to be affectionate. By then, Ye Xiaoliu was pregnant too. In the end, he gave birth to a son. He thought his hard days were finally over, but when the boy was only one and still couldn’t talk, he went looking for a rope to hang himself.

Ye Xiaoliu’s vision went black. He was about to faint again.

Qin Wentian had been reading web novels for decades, and lately he was obsessed with ge'er stories. In most of them, a scummy gong abuses the shou in every possible way. Then, after some incident, a modern gong transmigrates into the scummy gong’s body and turns over a new leaf. He falls in love at first sight with the poor, docile shou, dotes on him endlessly, and showers him with affection, taking him along to start a business and make money or sit the imperial exams, until they reach the pinnacle of life.

Or else a modern shou transmigrates into the body of a penniless ge'er in ancient times. Using modern knowledge, he starts a business and wins the favor of a young master, a prince, or even the crown prince. Then the two of them start scheming against their rivals, and once they win, they live happily ever after in shameless bliss.

Every night before falling asleep, Qin Wentian would fantasize. He was good at all sorts of things: farming, running a stall, harvesting grain. If he ever transmigrated, he didn’t ask for much. Just give him a soft, sweet little husband, and he’d be in heaven.

Then he really did transmigrate.

But where was his soft, sweet little husband?

Who was this person with fists as big as sandbags, who came up and punched him viciously?

Apart from being just as poor, his new life had almost nothing in common with the stories he’d read.

Where was the scummy gong and obedient shou setup?

Had he ended up in a scummy gong and vicious shou setup instead?

Later, Qin Wentian started to think that his big shou and the transmigrated gong’s little shou might be the same after all. But what was going on with their round-headed, round-cheeked son? Why did the little rascal keep trying to hang himself every few days?

Synopsis for upcoming novel [Finding a Husband, Hiding from Disaster]

Chu Wenci died, then came back to life, but unexpectedly became bound to a System.

The System was a patriotism System.

It gave Chu Wenci a mission: rescue the brothers from the Duke’s family who had been left behind in the outside world.

The Great Wu emperor was incompetent and tyrannical, and the entire Duke’s family was massacred. The two legitimate brothers were sold by a slave broker and sent to Luoxia Town.

Chu Wenci had to rescue them.

Later, Zhou Wenyue became his husband, and Zhou Wenbin became his younger brother-in-law.

After completing the mission, Chu Wenci had no choice but to return to the modern world. He entrusted his husband and brother-in-law to his younger associate, asking him to look after them.

But when Chu Wenci returned, his associate’s family and his husband had disappeared without a trace.

Chu Wenci could only set out to find them.

He hadn’t found his husband or brother-in-law when disaster struck: heavy rain fell across Great Wu for months, causing landslides and raging mudflows everywhere, destroying homes.

Later, on the road as he fled the famine, he finally caught sight of his husband: dressed in rags, gaunt and sallow, and heavily pregnant.
