[Republic-era marriage by substitution, sweet romance | His foolish wife is a hidden miracle doctor]
Everyone in Jinmen knows that Young Marshal Shen An is marrying a fool to bring himself good fortune.
On their wedding night, she knocks over the medicine bowl, pulls off his military insignia, and stares at the handkerchief he coughs blood into. “What exquisite embroidery.”
He sneers. She’s nothing but a pretty ornament to keep around.
Until he is on the brink of death from a poison attack and sees her holding a silver needle, her eyes clear and sharp. At the bottom of her dowry chest lies the token of a miracle doctor who vanished from the martial world many years ago.
So she really is foolish, and yet she really isn’t.
She may be foolish about the ways of the world, but she has long since given him her true heart, bringing spring back to his withered bones.
