After transmigrating into the body of a newlywed bride, Gu Pan'er, a wicked woman by nature, is thrown into confusion.
Her young husband is sickly, her mother-in-law is a crybaby, and there's barely enough to eat from one meal to the next.
The neighboring family is her own natal family, but they're a bunch of troublemakers too. Her parents and younger siblings are a whole basket of soft buns she can't rely on, and they come around every few days to mooch off her.
Luckily, Gu Pan'er is capable. She hunts in the mountains and catches fish in the water, and manages to get by just fine.
But those neighbors are truly despicable. They keep barging into her home and making trouble, until her young husband rolls his eyes whenever he sees her, and her mother-in-law cries every day. And when they can't get any benefit out of it, they torment her original body's parents and siblings to death.
Gu Pan'er thinks it over and decides she's not the original owner of this body, so why should she care if they live or die?
But she still can't help grabbing a woodcutter's knife and charging over, hacking at everything in sight!
You dare bully my parents and siblings? Let's split the family! Split the family! I won't reason with you. If you refuse to split, I'll ruin your whole household!!!
And just like that, the neighbors settle down.
Her young husband must have been poor for too long, because he's so stingy that even with the rainy season approaching, he absolutely refuses to repair the house. He says they've lived there for years and nothing's happened, so he won't waste the money.
Gu Pan'er: "A storm is coming. Are you sure this house will be okay?"
Her young husband: "Don't worry. At worst, it'll leak a little. It'll be fine."
The wind comes. The rain comes. The roof gets blown away.
Gu Pan'er wipes the rainwater from her face. "You call this a little leak? You call this fine?"
Her young husband remains completely calm. "It's fine. Once the rain stops, it'll be all right."
Gu Pan'er: "..."
Everyone says Gu Pan'er married a doomed man and will soon be a widow. She doesn't think so. Her young husband may be a little weak, but he looks malnourished. A little care should keep him alive.
Everyone says Gu Qing married a vicious madwoman and is in for a miserable life. He doesn't think so. His wife may be a little vicious, but she's good at guarding the home, practically a household guardian beast!
