They didn't become princes, ministers, noble ladies, or young masters. Instead, they became a young couple in a remote village in the Great Li Kingdom: a physician and a amnesiac wife of unknown origins. Their house was bare, their bed was an earthen kang, and they had to make their own toothbrushes.
But they didn't worry for long. The husband inherited the original owner's medical skills, and settled down to treat patients and study hard. The wife loved good food and tinkering. Starting with homemade cleaning solution, she gradually came up with braised delicacies, hot pot, century eggs, mooncakes, milk tea... She only meant to make sure they ate and drank well, but somehow ended up supporting an entire village.
They were lucky. They saved a powerful benefactor, a refugee who called himself “Liu Feng” but was actually the emperor's eldest legitimate son and a great general who guarded the nation. But this benefactor was also “hopelessly unambitious.” He got so comfortable living with the couple that, after returning to the capital to settle state affairs, he gave up the position everyone was fighting over and came running back, refusing to leave the village.
They had two children: a girl named Su Lexing and a boy named Zhao Kaiyang. They built a hot spring resort in the hills behind the village and made their own little paradise. Once the children were a little older, the whole family, including the man who had once been a great general, packed their bags and set out to see more of the world.
No grand ambitions, no political scheming, no defying fate. Just the warm, everyday life of a couple, and a group of people who refused to let kindness go unrewarded.
Life is short. Stop pushing yourself and live well.
