A three-book set: Long Life for You, Scheming for the Rest of Our Lives, and A Wish Repaid.
Long Life for You
The year Yu Ci was born, the late cherry blossoms at Yuyuan were in full bloom, their clusters of delicate pink flowers seeming ready to fall. Fu Zeyi, who lived at Yuyuan, gave her the nickname Songyue. Pines before the moon, moonlight shining on crimson cherry blossoms.
The year Yu Ci turned fourteen, her parents died one after the other. Candlelight flickered in the ancestral hall, and no one spoke. At fourteen, she swayed alone like those wavering flames.
Fu Zeyi sat in the seat of honor in the main hall and looked at her from afar. "Come with me. Come back to Yuyuan with me."
Later, among the pavilions and terraces of splendid Yuyuan, amid the misty rain of Jiangnan, she let herself entertain feelings she should never have had.
Scheming for the Rest of Our Lives
Chu Yunjian and Lu Kuo ultimately broke up, and everyone laughed at her for being a sparrow dreaming of becoming a phoenix.
A few years later, she returned with her son.
When she saw Lu Kuo, she merely greeted him coolly: "Mr. Lu."
At that moment, Lu Kuo, a man who'd spent years charming his way through life, couldn't stop his eyes from reddening. His voice hoarse, he said, "Who wants to be just Mr. Lu?"
A Wish Repaid
The first time Xu Yanching met Qi Yuan, he leaned over a pool table with a cue in hand and smoothly cleared the table in one beautiful shot. Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Which kind of yuan?"
The young woman smiled and replied brightly, "The yuan in 'getting your wish.'"
She didn't know that her words would prove prophetic. That character would become a dream he would later hate with every fiber of his being, yet could never let go of.
Years later, the two met again under circumstances neither had expected.
She treated him with false sincerity and a forced smile.
He glared at her and ground out, "If you put on that fake, ingratiating smile again, I'll kill you."
I particularly like the line in "I May You Live Forever", "There is a moon in front of the pine trees, and the cherry blossoms are blooming". It is so romantic! Also in "Wish Fulfillment", the interaction between Qi Yuan and Xu Yanqing was also very interesting and made me laugh non-stop. All in all, this is a collection of sweet articles that is well worth reading!
This is written by a truly literate person. The book describes the traditional culture and upbringing of China's real big family, which has been deeply ingrained in one's bones. Even though I have not lived in China for many years, I have not forgotten it.
It's so beautiful, the more I watch it, the more I can't put it down.
Beautiful and well written!
Love that flows slowly is beautiful.
Gentle, quiet, natural love, not strong, but warm and reassuring

Talking eloquently, as gentle as jade
Super pretty, very immersive
