On the day Shen Miao said that she had a hairpin, an imperial edict broke into pieces the jade bracelet:
"I hereby grant you the right to marry Xiao Yi from the general's palace of Zhenguo. We will choose an auspicious day to get married."
Amidst the uproar in the whole hall, she pointed at her parents with trembling fingertips: "My daughter is actually worth three cities at the border?"
Everyone in Jinling City knows——
The young general Xiao Yi is a jade-faced Shura, with an enemy's head hanging on his saddle and a bloody armor hanging in his study.
But no one knew that hidden in his sleeve was the faded red string she tore off when she was five years old.
On their wedding night, she clutched the scissors and shook them like fallen leaves.
When the hijab was lifted, she saw the rumored evil star kneeling on one knee, holding up her cold bare feet and warming them with his palms: "The ground is cold, wear shoes."
Later she discovered——
The painting she tore into pieces, he put together overnight and put it into a gold frame;
She muttered "it's sour at the border", and the honey box, which had been expedited for 800 miles, arrived in Beijing;
She drunkenly scolded him for "taking lenient control", but he silently took off his sword and put it into her hand: "I will control her for the rest of my life."
Until she dug out the faded red string and yellowed wedding certificate, which read crookedly:
"Xiao Yi returns to Shen Miaoyan for the rest of his life."
Where the signature was signed, there were still her little finger prints stained with sugar residue.
She cried and beat him: "Liar! Make me feel guilty for ten years!"
But he kissed her tears away, his eyes burning:
"Madam is wrong, it is fifteen years and three months."
Small Theater
At the celebration banquet, the enemy's proton smiled and praised: "The general's wife is as beautiful as a warbler."
That night, Proton was fined to copy the Book of Rites three hundred times.
She nestled in Xiao Yi's arms and gnawed on apricots: "Jealous!"
He bit her fingertips and licked off the icing sugar: "Well, I'll just use Madam's vinegar."
