The Husband Takes the Lead

After Old Ye had three daughters, he finally had a son. But when his boy turned sixteen and Old Ye started looking for a wife for him, he discovered that his tall, strapping son was actually a ger. To keep the Ye family line from dying out, Old Ye and his husband discussed it and found Ye Xiaoliu a husband who would marry into their family. Finding a suitable groom was difficult, so in the end Old Ye chose the youngest son of the Qin family from the neighboring village. Ye Xiaoliu was still wandering around town with his gang when his father hauled him home. He was forced through the wedding ceremony and into the bridal chamber. When he finally lifted the veil, his vision went black. Ye Xiaoliu was the local bully of Liu Village. Qin Wentian was the local bully of Qin Village. The two had fought countless times over territory. Two village bullies together could only end badly. Qin Wentian was tied up and sitting on the wedding bed. Ye Xiaoliu swung a fist at his face. “Damn it, I’d rather let the Ye family line die out than top you.” Qin Wentian: “I’d sooner top a sow than you.” After Qin Wentian entered the household, the Ye family was in an uproar and even the house was smashed to pieces. Old 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 rushing in from outside and kicked the door open. The two old men thought the newlyweds were about to start fighting and were about to stop them when they heard Ye Xiaoliu’s sweet, obedient voice: “Husband, why did you take so long? I missed you.” “Then I’ll give you a kiss.” “You’re so mean~” Old Ye shuddered. “…” … Ye Xiaoliu felt he had spent his whole life on edge. 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. Just when “wife” finally stopped doing that and learned to be affectionate, Ye Xiaoliu’s belly grew round. In the end, he gave birth to a son. He thought his hard days were finally over, but the boy was barely a year old and couldn’t even talk when he found a rope and tried to hang himself. Ye Xiaoliu’s vision went black again. He was about to faint. … Qin Wentian had spent decades reading online novels and had recently become obsessed with ger stories. Most of them were about scum semes who abused their poor ukes in every way. Then something would happen, and a modern-day seme would transmigrate into the scum seme’s body. He’d turn over a new leaf, fall in love at first sight with the poor, obedient uke, and spoil him rotten. They’d start a business together, make money, or take the imperial examinations, then rise to the top of the world. Or a modern-day uke would transmigrate into the body of a poor ger in ancient times. Using modern knowledge, he’d start a business and win the favor of a young master, a prince, or even the crown prince. The two would face a few challenges, then live happily ever after. Every night before going to sleep, Qin Wentian used to fantasize. He knew how to do lots of things: farming, running a stall, harvesting rice, you name it. If he ever transmigrated, all he wanted was a soft, sweet little husband. It would be a dream come true. And then he really did transmigrate. But where was his soft, sweet little husband? Who was this man with fists as big as sandbags, who came at him with a vicious punch? Aside from being just as poor, his life was nothing like anyone else’s. Where was the scum seme and obedient uke setup? Was he in a scum seme and vicious uke story? Later, Qin Wentian thought maybe his big uke and the transmigrated seme’s little uke were one and the same. But what was with their round-headed son? Why did he keep trying to hang himself?
