Liang Hongyu, a resilient survivor from a post-apocalyptic world, finds herself reborn in the body of a woman in the Great Yuan Dynasty—a fictional era not recorded in Chinese history. The original owner of her new body had died from a cold caught in the mountains, giving Liang Hongyu a second chance at life.

As she awakens, Liang Hongyu, now living in a modest yellow mud-tiled house, begins to process the memories of her body's former owner and the era she now inhabits. She learns about her new life and the people in it, particularly her "husband," Huo Tianzhou, a mute young man of 18 years who had been taking care of her during her illness.

Liang Hongyu's new existence is fraught with challenges. The original owner of her body, also named Liang Hongyu, had married into Huo Tianzhou's family out of gratitude and necessity. After the deaths of both her mother-in-law and her father-in-law, the household fell into debt, and their land and house were constantly coveted by greedy relatives.

Determined to survive and fulfill her promise to her mother-in-law, Liang Hongyu decides to repay the debts and find a new way to support the household. She quickly realizes that their immediate need is food, and despite Huo Tianzhou's silent objections, she plans to return to the mountains to gather resources.

Throughout her journey, Liang Hongyu is struck by the stark differences between her past life and her new one, as well as the unexpected resilience and determination of Huo Tianzhou. Despite his frail appearance and inability to speak, he shows a surprising strength of character.

As Liang Hongyu navigates her new reality, she faces the daunting task of balancing her sense of duty to her new family with her desire for independence and survival skills honed in the apocalypse. Her story is one of resilience, adaptation, and the pursuit of a better life in an unfamiliar world.

Married And Getting Rich In Ancient Times

Her words ignited a spark of anger that had been smoldering inside Huo Tianzhou.

The fact that he was bullied in front of so many people, right at his own doorstep, and couldn't even call for help infuriated him.

The idea of fighting back had seemed bold, but in reality, a single push from them could have seriously harmed him, not to mention the backlash he would face from the villagers.

Moreover, considering what kind of people Huo Dagou and his gang are, if they decided to seek revenge, Huo Tianzhou would stand no chance against them.

He really needed to assess his own abilities before taking any reckless actions.

Huo Tianzhou was already displeased with Liang Hongyu suddenly lecturing him, and he was also a little bit annoyed with himself for complying so quickly when she called him over.

He shrugged his shoulder to the side, clearly indicating he didn't want to listen anymore and was about to walk away.

Knowing how much Huo Tianzhou hated Huo Dagou, who was directly responsible for his father's death, Liang Hongyu softened her tone slightly.

"Let's get back to the point," she said, "If you could actually beat them, I wouldn't care if you rushed over to fight. But ask yourself, can you really take them on in your current state?"

"And if you were that capable, do you think they would dare to come after you?"

"So, if you can't beat them, just stay put and wait until you can. Or—"

Huo Tianzhou had already lifted his foot to leave, but he paused after hearing her words.

In his current condition, he couldn't win against anyone.

He couldn't handle anything properly, and fighting would only make things worse for his family.

Huo Tianzhou lowered his eyes, his face sullen.

He was standing there looking defeated.

Even though he still felt some resistance to her words, his submissive demeanor showed he was at least somewhat receptive.

Seeing this, Liang Hongyu couldn't help but feel a strange itch in her palms.

In a normal family, wouldn't this be the point where a parent might gently encourage their child?

Perhaps a little bit of positive encouragement to avoid being too harsh and causing him to run away from home?

After a long silence, during which Huo Tianzhou didn't hear Liang Hongyu continue speaking, he looked up at her with a hint of confusion.

Liang Hongyu cleared her throat and continued, "Or, let someone who can beat them do it."

Her tone was light, but her words carried weight.

Huo Tianzhou blinked his eyes, trying to grasp the meaning behind her words, and stared at her in surprise.

It seemed he couldn't quite understand how Liang Hongyu, who had just criticized him for being reckless and not considering the consequences, was now suggesting how he should deal with Huo Dagou and his gang.

Huo Tianzhou's eyes brightened slightly for a moment, and then he deliberately suppressed it, avoiding Liang Hongyu's gaze.
