Copywriting:
When Ruan Qinghe was sixteen years old, his father treated him as a gift for clinging to the powerful, and he was carried into the Lu family in the capital in a small sedan chair.
On the wedding night, the husband was seriously ill and had not yet arrived, so he only sent someone to say: "Go and take care of the eldest son."
She lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw a young man standing under the eaves, his features as cold as frost.
——That's her stepson, Lu Yanqi. Thirteen years old, only three years younger than her.
The young man hated her for taking his mother's place. He broke the spring peach in front of her window in public and mocked her as "just a widow."
But later, he was pushed into a cold pond, and she jumped in to fish him out regardless of honor;
His monthly salary was deducted from him by the dowager, and she secretly pawned the dowry to help him;
He had a high fever and was talking nonsense late at night, but she kept him naked for three days and three nights.
The way the young man looked at her slowly changed——
From disgust, to dependence, and then one night he climbed over the wall into her courtyard, and asked with red eyes: "Why does mother always avoid me?"
Lu Wenyuan died of illness, and Ruan Qinghe became a seventeen-year-old widow.
Her husband's family forced her to die as a martyrdom, but it was Lu Yanqi who, as the eldest son, controlled the whole clan and protected her behind him.
When the filial piety period expired, the Lu family turned around and wanted to remarry her to the tyrannical old general in exchange for military power.
When he was desperate, Li Yanqi, the son of the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, stepped into the capital and paid a visit.
He held the junior ceremony and lowered his eyes to hide the burning in his eyes.
But when no one was around, he blocked her in the ancestral hall and asked her with a low smile:
"Mother, I'm back. Have you... Waited?"
——Three years.
That young man had already changed his surname and returned to his clan, stirring up trouble in the court and using ruthless methods to disown his relatives.
But only in front of her, he was paranoid and humble.
He broke off a spring peach and knelt in front of her:
"Ruan Qinghe, I won't call you mother, and I won't let you follow Lao Shizi's etiquette."
"From now on, you are just my wife, Li Yanqi."
"They all say you are a scumbag. I don't believe it."
"If you really can defeat me, come and defeat me. I am determined."
Small theater
Ruan Qinghe: "I am your mother in name, and you are committing incest."
Li Yanqi: "I dare to rebel against the Lu family, but why are I afraid of incest?"
He leaned over, bit her earlobe and smiled:
"That year in the ancestral hall, you said that I was rebellious."
"Tonight, I will show you my treason."
——Take away this spring in exchange for warmth for the rest of your life.
