The Divorced Husband Leads the Village Men in Construction

Shen Yan opened his eyes and found himself transmigrated into a matriarchal world as a divorced husband. The original owner had been childless for three years, clumsy with words and hands, and was kicked out by his wife with a divorce letter, freezing to death in a mountain temple. When he opened his eyes again, he was Shen Yan, a chief engineer from China Construction and a PhD in civil engineering. He was accompanied by three abandoned brothers in misfortune: a child bridegroom falsely accused of adultery, a hunter's son too burly for anyone to want, and a young dual-gender person who fled from marriage. The whole village was laughing at them: men without women can't even feed themselves, what else can they do? Shen Yan sneered. He burned blue bricks, built tiled houses, repaired roads, and constructed dams. What others couldn't fire into bricks, he did in one kiln; what others couldn't build as bridges, he finished in three months. He established the 'Men's Engineering Team,' leading a group of looked-down-upon men to take on projects, open workshops, and run merchant caravans, working all the way from Xinghua Village to the capital. His ex-wife Lin Daniū regretted it and blocked his door to beg for reconciliation: 'Yan Lang, come home, I'll treat you well from now on.' Shen Yan didn't even lift his head: 'Manager Lin, if you want to hire us, get in line at the back.' The newly appointed female county magistrate supported him, and all the civil and military officials in the court petitioned for his honor. From a frozen corpse in a mountain temple to the first Minister of Works of the Great Feng Dynasty, Shen Yan proved to everyone with his strength: Men can also hold up half the sky. — Description from novelcodex.org
