Childhood sweethearts + older sister and younger man + play the pig to eat the tiger + doting wife + doting husband + henpecked husband + a match made in heaven + happy ending
A new neighbor moves into the house across from Gu Zhinian’s. She’s a pretty auntie.
A few months after the pretty auntie moves in, she gives birth to a baby boy.
“Huh! The little brother is so ugly! He’s all wrinkly, like one of those little monkeys performing tricks at the market.”
Su Huai’an is looked down on by Gu Zhinian from the moment he’s born. Well, she is a sucker for a pretty face, after all!
But even though she thinks he’s ugly, she still acts like a proper big sister.
When people call Su Huai’an a fatherless bastard, she chases after them and beats them up.
When Su Huai’an goes into the water to catch fish, Gu Zhinian watches his clothes from the bank.
When Su Huai’an climbs a tree to steal bird eggs, Gu Zhinian stands beneath it, lips pressed together and fretting like crazy, afraid he’ll fall.
When they grow up, Su Huai’an goes to study in Qizhou Prefecture, while Gu Zhinian learns the family trade from her father.
One is mocked because his biological father is unknown. The other is ridiculed for being a merchant’s daughter.
Later, the people who humiliated him have their households confiscated and are exiled, while those who mocked her are stripped of their status.
Everyone said you shouldn’t mess with these childhood sweethearts. But no one listened. Happy now?
It's a good read. The beginning about the female lead's childhood is a bit long and drawn out, but the story gets better as she grows up. Recommended for those who like childhood sweetheart stories.
So far it seems pretty good, the story is fresh and interesting, I hope it continues to be good.
