From the Start, I Married into Her Family. Now I'm the Top Scholar, So Why Are You Crying?

After transmigrating to the Great Qian Dynasty, Ye Yuan is framed and coerced by his own second uncle into marrying into the Wang family, where he is wed to a fearsome woman whose name is said to stop children crying at night.

He thought he was walking into a den of danger, but his wife turns out to have a heart as tender as snow.

They agree on three rules, and she considers his needs in everything, wholeheartedly helping him pursue an official career.

Two years later, Ye Yuan places first in all three imperial examinations.

He posts his name on the imperial notice board, presents brilliant strategies, cleverly resolves a national crisis, and wins the princess’s favor!

His second uncle’s family panics. “Yuan, we only made you marry into the Wang family because we had no choice. Now that you’ve made something of yourself, you should help your younger brother too!”

His wife snaps, “Get lost! Ye Yuan is my husband and the new head of the Wang family. What does any of this have to do with you?”

Ye Yuan says, “Second Uncle, you angered my wife and upset her pregnancy. Pay up, or I’ll lead a million soldiers to wipe out your whole family!”
