I am Shen Niannian, the most precious granddaughter of the Shen family in Beijing.
When I was born, the fortune teller said that I would not live to be three years old. My grandfather hired the best doctor in the world to feed me with thousand-year-old ginseng, Tianshan snow lotus, and South Sea pearls until I was eighteen years old.
I drank a bowl of black bitter medicine every day for fifteen years.
My whole family looked after me like an eyeball. My eldest brother went to study medicine for me, and my second brother went to study pharmacy for me. My third brother said, "Whoever dares to make Nian Nian unhappy, I will make his whole family unhappy."
But I know I'm dying.
I always have a dream recently - in the dream, there is a man in black robe, with a face that makes my legs weak, squatting at the end of Naihe Bridge and pitifully counting the petals:
"She's coming, she's not coming, she's coming, she's not coming..."
When the last petal fell, his eyes lit up, he looked up and saw me, and tears fell down:
"Honey!! When will you finish your tribulation!! The peach blossoms in the Palace of Hell have already withered three times!!"
Me:? ? ?
Wait, who am I? Where am I? When did I get married?
