[A powerful, honest and sober heroine × a low self-esteem, sensitive, and downcast young man hero]
Once his family was destroyed, Yan Qiaosheng, the former noble son of the capital, lived incognito among the people.
It was Chen Xin who saved him when he was about to die. He didn't care about his embarrassment, married him as his husband, and doted on him in every possible way.
He thought that he might just forget about it for the rest of his life, guarding the honest but gentle farm girl, and living his life plainly but safely. However, fate was twisting his mind, and the rumors from the past still refused to let him go.
Female protagonist's perspective:
After my parents left, I lived alone for a long time. I went to the mountains to cut firewood every day and helped others when I was free.
On the way home that day, I met him lying alone in a pool of blood, so I took him home and took care of him.
Accompanying me day and night, I learned that he, like me, had lost his parents and was helpless in this world, so I suddenly proposed to marry him so that we could take care of each other in the future, and he agreed.
We are living well after marriage.
But they all said that my husband-in-law was a substitute.
It's not mine, it belongs to Lord Shen Xiaohou of the capital.
Male protagonist's perspective:
My secret was discovered anyway.
Why? Obviously I have been careful and lived incognito, and I am obviously close to happiness. Why does God do this to me? What did I do wrong?
But she didn't ask me. I was glad that she didn't ask me, and I also hated that she didn't ask me.
So I told her straight up.
I used to admire the second young lady of the Xu family. After her fiancé Mr. Shen Xiaohou died in battle, I offered to be his substitute, but she was rejected.
Just when I was sad and sad, someone exposed my father's corruption and bribery. The emperor was furious and demoted my family to a remote wilderness. The mountains were high and the roads were far away. My father and mother were brutally murdered by mountain bandits. I only survived a narrow escape.
Until the rumors reached her ears, I thought God was not too bad to me.
Passerby's perspective:
Everyone said that Chen Xin was a gentleman, and he could marry Yan Qiaosheng regardless of the past grudges. The two of them lived better and better lives both internally and externally.
At the beginning, everyone expressed sympathy and ridicule to the two.
But later, they watched the young couple move from the countryside to the court step by step. Chen Xin took her husband step by step to reverse the case of her father-in-law, becoming the emperor's most admired newcomer and a good official praised by the people.
Chen Xin's version of a one-sentence introduction: What a substitute, you are my husband-in-law!
