Married to a Lucky Male Wife

Song Sheng suddenly transmigrated and became a poor scholar with the same name in Song Village, who also had a delicate-looking young male wife. The original Song Sheng was physically weak and failed the imperial exams three times. His studies drained his family's finances, leading his uncles to argue fiercely about dividing the household. Only his male wife stayed silent, borrowing silver from his own family to support Song Sheng's education. Yet, even after straining until his thirties, the original Song Sheng never passed the exams. He grew resentful, turning to alcohol and violence, while his male wife suffered early death from hardship. Song Sheng decided: since he occupied this body, he would take responsibility. Studying would continue, but his male wife would be cherished. Recalling the original’s memories, his current timeline was— His wedding night. —— My name is Lu Qing. Born as the least valued "male wife" (a gender role), with faint marks and a deceased father, villagers called me a jinx. Unbetrothed by sixteen, my family married me off to the dirt-poor Song household. Expecting misery, I instead found my husband treated me tenderly—warming my winters with hot bottles, cooling summers with mung bean soup. I grew to adore him. Once scorned as a jinx, the village now hailed me as a fortunate charm. After marriage, my husband excelled in his studies. I became the scholar's husband, then the provincial graduate's. My husband was truly wonderful—I’d marry him again in the next life.
