Marrying the World-Weary Top Scholar (Chuanshu)

Ji An underwent Taichuan into a novel about achieving prosperity through farming and studying, becoming the cold and beautiful young aunt of the reborn female lead. This aunt was neither a villain nor a fool; she was beautiful, intelligent, and possessed profound learning. However, she married the wrong man and eventually died of a broken heart. Profound learning!! Ji An, a study-slacker whose head ached the moment she opened a book, could only look up at her predecessor’s legacy with envy. With a reborn niece by her side, how was she supposed to live her life? After much thought, she could only put on a show by placing two books in front of her. With a cold expression, she practiced needlework and saved up her private funds, watching with detachment as her niece plotted for the third branch of the family. This continued until one day, her third brother, who had passed the imperial examinations, brought home a fellow candidate… Upon seeing him, the niece bit her lip, her brows knitting as her cheeks flushed with shyness. Ji An grew wary; this man named Chu was not simple. In what way was he not simple? It wasn’t until two years after her marriage to the man named Chu that she found the answer. During a struggle between the civil and military officials at court, the new Top Scholar, Chu Mo, became a sacrificial pawn and was sent to the border as a military supervisor. As it turned out, the general died in battle, and the supervisor Chu Mo abandoned the pen for the sword… There seemed to be such a person in the original book. A Top Scholar who abandoned the pen for the sword, and then… stay calm, stay calm… Should she continue to urge her husband—a man full of wicked schemes who might go crazy and stir up trouble at any moment—to be positive and upwardly mobile? Summary: This story mainly follows a hardworking and optimistic study-slacker supporting character who, after marrying a dark-hearted academic genius, worries not only that their future children might inherit her lack of brains but also that her genius husband might go crazy and cause chaos. For the sake of her adorable future offspring, the study-slacker couldn’t care less about the original leads; she only wants to roll up her sleeves and whip her genius husband into focusing on a positive career. In the end, the genius worked a little too hard!!
