[Period Setting] [Joining the Army] [Childbearing System] [Sweet Romance, Both Leads Devoted to Each Other]
Gu Jianing was set up by her scumbag ex-husband and died in a fire. By a twist of fate, she was reborn at the moment she jumped into a river in the dead of winter, trying to make her older brother give his job to Wen Zhuqing, a sent-down youth who would later become her ex-husband.
In her previous life, her family gave in, and she married Wen Zhuqing as planned. But after years of infertility, he exploited her to drain her family of its wealth. Her family was destroyed, and he even arranged for her to die in a fire so he could make room to marry a rich, beautiful woman.
Determined to stay away from that scumbag, Gu Jianing, rescued from the river this time, grabbed the matchmaker's leg as she was about to leave and agreed to Sheng Zexi's proposal.
Broad shoulders, a trim waist, high rank and great power... Only after she died in her previous life did she learn that she was the woman this military big shot cherished in his heart.

A little over a year ago, Gu Jianing had accidentally found Sheng Zexi injured and unconscious on a mountain.
Kindly, she took off her own clothes and put them on him, while she shivered with cold.
Sheng Zexi: "You're not even as good-looking as me, and you're even less attractive with your clothes off."
Gu Jianing: "What a sharp tongue. He'll never find a wife."
He was badly injured and unconscious, and couldn't swallow his herbal medicine, so she kindly tried to pry his mouth open and force it down.
Sheng Zexi: "Keep your distance. I'm afraid your stupidity will rub off on me. You could have just used a little bamboo strip."
Gu Jianing: "His tongue is unbelievably sharp. He's destined to die alone."
Who would have guessed that, more than a year later, Sheng Zexi, who had left long ago, would hear she had fallen into the river and gotten sick, then sneak in through her window with supplies?
"Gu Jianing, do you think your head isn't wet enough already, or are you just tired of living? You jumped into a river for some pretty boy!"
As he scolded her, he fed her painkillers and sweet rice wine with eggs to warm her up and replenish her blood. "I've treated you so well. If you're still blind enough to pine after that pretty boy..."
Gu Jianing: "Then I'll marry you."
Sheng Zexi froze on the spot, then grinned like a fool. He quickly married Gu Jianing, and even took her with him when he joined the army!

The military families in camp all said:
"Sheng Zexi's wife is such a little diva. She's delicate and vain, can't do heavy work, and is always complaining she's tired. One day, Sheng Zexi is sure to abandon her."
Who could have imagined that the little diva would become a doctor at the military hospital as soon as she arrived, and not only have one baby after another, but also become a famous fertility doctor known far and wide?
And Sheng Zexi, once an arrogant troublemaker, became a good father and husband who washed bedsheets by day and diapers by night.
