[Female-dominated world / transmigration / farming / building a fortune]
When Su Mingyue opened her eyes, she had transmigrated from the apocalypse into a female-dominated world.
The Su family was dirt poor, and Su Mingyue’s mother was gravely ill. Somehow, she had heard that a “wedding to bring good fortune” could help.
Lin Yuqing was a cheap, enslaved man bought to bring good fortune.
On the night he entered the house, Su Mingyue’s mother passed away.
By law and custom, Lin Yuqing was an “inheritance,” just like the house and fields. When the eldest daughter remarried, he went to Su Mingyue and had to call her his wife.
By the time Su Mingyue transmigrated, her mother had been dead for over a year.
The family was so poor they couldn’t afford a meal, and even mice would steer clear. The man brought in to bring good fortune was about to be sold off for cash.
Lin Yuqing’s face was deathly pale, tinged gray-green. His coarse clothes hung on a body as thin as a withered branch. His eyes were dull and numb, as if he had long since accepted his fate. He was a slave who could be bought and sold at will. It made no difference to him if he was passed on to someone else.
On the first night after Su Mingyue arrived, Lin Yuqing cowered in a corner, clutching a pair of scissors and staring at her in terror. Trembling, he said:
“Don’t, don’t touch me, or I’ll...”
The scissors pressed against the side of his neck, drawing blood.
Su Mingyue rubbed her temples and promised, “I won’t touch you, and I won’t sell you either.”
A month later, Lin Yuqing had put on a little weight. But his wife treated him so well and truly had no ulterior motives. He couldn’t tell whether he felt relieved or quietly hurt.
A year later, in the middle of the night, he carefully tugged at her sleeve, eyes red as he pleaded, “My wife, please take pity on me.”
