transmigration novels, heroines are supposed to turn their lives around for the better, moving from thatched huts to spacious mansions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why did things go in reverse for her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, she started off in a small, dark tile-roofed house and then, after marrying Jin Zijin, moved into a thatched hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she’d hit rock bottom, without even a hut to live in, resorting to a cave like some primitive human!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Embarrassing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin’s silence was making Gu Youyou’s heart grow colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she watched him lay out a bed on a smooth, large rock, she couldn’t hold back any longer and blurted out a question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zijin, why do you keep silent?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin didn’t answer her but instead sat down by the bed, gazing at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou, growing anxious, pressed on, “If you’re not happy, scold me, okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just don’t be like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it’s really necessary, I’ll compensate you with a house.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their brief months together had cemented his irreplaceable place in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With nowhere else to go for the moment, she didn’t want a simple thatched hut to drive a wedge between them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a house, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her lifetime’s medical skills, she would be able to earn enough to buy him a house sooner or later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou, pale with illness, looked pitiful as she stared at him, awaiting his response like a little abandoned creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even she would be startled by such a sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou grew up without parents, always more mature than her siblings and never learned to act spoiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, here she was, displaying such a girlish demeanor in front of Jin Zijin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that these past few months of being ill had even eroded her proud character?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She used to believe that no one in this world was indispensable to anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides herself, there was no one else she could truly rely on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her grandfather was good to her, but he had always taught her that he couldn’t protect her forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To have firm control over the Gu Family, she had to rely on herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pondering this, Gu Youyou’s expression flickered, teetering on the edge of withdrawal, yet she couldn’t bear to pull away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps she truly couldn’t bear to part with Jin Zijin…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seemingly disheveled man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is there for me to scold you about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Gu Youyou thought Jin Zijin wouldn’t speak, he finally did just as she was about to withdraw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His question left her speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, she said, “I burned down your house, the only property you had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now you have no place to live, only this cave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you supposed to scold me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Call me a spendthrift who does more harm than good, someone who can’t even cook without burning the house down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What use do I have for you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I should divorce you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin: “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh…” Gu Youyou paused, then added, “Perhaps I judged a gentleman’s heart with a petty mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re more open-minded and think it’s just a house that burned down and we can rebuild it later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then you could say to me…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Youyou, don’t be too sad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as you’re safe, it’s all that matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A home has nothing to do with a house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remember, where you are is home!'”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin: “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin’s face was contorted with discomfort, feeling that if Gu Youyou continued, he might lose his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanting to get some fresh air, Jin Zijin started walking out of the cave, leaving Gu Youyou so startled that she immediately clammed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disappointment filled her face, along with barely concealed panic as she watched his retreating figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a second thought, she grabbed him from behind, holding on for dear life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, her anxiety was genuine, and her heartbeat raced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to live and was unsure if she could survive without Jin Zijin at this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person responsible for poisoning her was still a mystery, but since Jin Zijin was willing to take her out, he must know something.\u003C\u002Fp>",692,"2026-06-06T06:54:47.693Z",1,"novelbin.me","295a1883b85aac2360c2d0a8faa0aa10836330b1f6335f751f102c699b112d23","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-84","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-82",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
