Tang Xu returned to the countryside from the city to accompany his mother. After his mother passed away, he stayed alone in the village, usually farming and raising chickens, streaming online. Although life was not wealthy, it was very comfortable.
Until a torrential rainstorm and flood struck, he was swept away by the flood while trying to rescue children in the village. When he opened his eyes again, he had become Xu Ge’er, a character in ancient rural life.
Who is Xu Ge’er?
He is a character from the book “The General’s Pretty Wife”, someone who once hailed from the same hometown as the general, someone who stirred the general’s heart, and someone who refused the general’s blind pursuit.
He is like an old ox, working tirelessly and diligently, doing the most work and eating the least, worn out by labor but despised by his parents at home for not marrying into a good family and not having more children.
He is Xu Ge’er who supported his husband to become a scholar but was abandoned with a divorce letter in the end.
He is the one who raised his younger siblings but was looked down upon by them as a poor relative from the countryside.
He died alone in a mud house, buried hastily with only a straw mat by the village folks.
Tang Xu sat on the hard stone bed, feeling bitterly wronged.
Listening to his mother’s curses, Tang Xu forcefully broke the chicken’s neck with his hands.
Looking at his siblings who only knew how to eat meat but not help with work, Tang Xu narrowed his eyes. If they wanted meat, they had to work for it.
Tang Xu, quickly accepting his current identity, decided to adapt to it. Since he was given a second chance at life, he would live comfortably as he pleased. As for other matters, like men having children, he wouldn’t dwell on them.
Approaching the age to marry?
Alright, he’ll marry that Orion from the neighboring village. Although there was a sick younger brother at home, the hunter was strong and good at work.
Tang Xu chewed on a piece of grass, happily patting the Orion’s chest muscles and asked with a smile, “Will you marry me?”
The Orion looked at Tang Xu’s face, which was considered outstanding in the vicinity, blushed, and nodded: “Yes!”
