"Your gift is a begonia flower"
(Sweetness and abuse intertwined | Sinister male protagonist | Farming to get rich | Counterattack in the imperial examination | Two-way redemption)
On the first day of time travel, Feng Tang uncovered the secret of He Li's murder.
The young man's face was spattered with blood, and his smile was so poisonous that he put the sickle against her throat: "Say it, and your whole family will be buried with you."
She is the pampered darling of the village, and her family is well off.
He was an orphan and was treated like a livestock by his relatives.
The two people who were supposed to have different paths were tied up by this bloody first encounter.
He Li used a trick to force her into marriage and dragged her into the quagmire.
On the wedding night, he warned her to "keep to herself" and she sneered, "Don't try to take advantage of me."
Feng Tang fought back with modern knowledge: growing strong vegetables using compost and earning his first money.
He used local customs to silence his evil relatives and hid his money to prevent his schemes.
He Li watched with cold eyes, but secretly acted cruelly when she was molested by the village bully, and when she had a fever, he ran all over the village looking for the doctor.
She taught him how to read, and found that he had a photographic memory. She sent him to school, and he clenched his fists and swore: "When you stand tall, no one can bully you."
From the dilapidated thatched cottages on the edge of the village to the "Begonia Restaurant" in the town, from country boys to famous generals in the capital, they fight for the best, resist difficulties, and enter officialdom.
He used the law to protect her, and she used her wisdom to help him achieve success.
Someone asked He Li what was the happiest thing in his life. He looked at the crabapple tree in the courtyard and chuckled: "That day in the back mountain, I didn't let her run away."
Feng Tang threw a crabapple fruit: "Rogue."
The wind blew off the petals and landed in their hair. It turned out that his gift had always been this thorny begonia.
