Xie Xu, a young master from an aristocratic family, was well-dressed and well-fed, rarely in a high position, and had only one trouble in his life, which was that his childhood sweetheart wife was always inexplicably jealous and often suspicious.
All day long, they either suspected that he was having an affair with his female colleague through official business, or that he was having an affair with his cousin who was staying at home.
He explained and promised over and over again, until one day he couldn't help but had a big quarrel with his wife.
Then he discovered that from that day on, his wife seemed to be a changed person and no longer questioned anything about him.
At first, he was relieved, thinking that she had finally figured it out and understood that she was the only one in his heart.
Until one day later, when the distant cousin of the Xie family stayed at home because he was going to Beijing to take the exam, he saw with his own eyes that his childhood wife held the cousin's hand with pity and said in a distressed tone:
"It's so pitiful. These hands are supposed to be holding pens and waving ink. How can you do those menial jobs just to make a living? My sister-in-law will support you from now on, don't be afraid."
The cousin stared at his wife darkly, smiled and said yes.
Such a similar scene, except that the protagonists were changed from him and his cousin to his wife and brother.
Xie Xu felt bad at that time.

Song Wangshu had lived for most of his life, and had been staring at his merciless husband for most of his life. He was really, really tired.
When she closed her eyes in front of her children and grandchildren, her only thought was that if she was given a chance to start over, she would not have to bear the reputation of being a jealous wife and live a life of humiliation. In the end, even her children and grandchildren did not understand her, and she blamed herself for ruining their grandfather/father's reputation as a helpful gentleman.
Why bother? She laughed at herself slightly, feeling worthless for herself.
So, when she returned to the year when she married Xie Xu, she suddenly realized——
Isn't it just showing mercy at all times? Oh, she can too.
Since it is difficult to reconcile, then in this life, she will be the "thank you".

On his birthday, Xie Xu specially cooked a bowl of longevity noodles and wanted Song Wangshu to eat with him. However, he waited until the noodles turned into paste before his wife returned slowly at night.
Xie Xu threw away his chopsticks, his eyes were red and he gritted his teeth and asked: "You knew that today is my birthday, why did you come back just now? Did you go to see him again?! I knew he had evil intentions! He deliberately called you away today!"
Hearing this, Song Wangshu pressed his forehead, frowned impatiently and said, "Don't make trouble unreasonably. He is your cousin. He is not familiar with the place in Shangjing. When he encounters difficulties, isn't it natural for me to help him as my sister-in-law? Besides, you were also helpful when my cousin was here. How come you have such a bad attitude as your cousin?"
Xie Xu gritted his teeth: "This is different!"
Song Wangshu said calmly: "I think it's the same everywhere."

Xie Jin has two secrets.
First, he is not a descendant of the Xie family, but the orphan of the former crown prince who happened to take over his identity.
Second, he has a special someone.
That sweetheart is his cheap cousin's wife.
