Summary of the story of Peach Blossom Stream
In late spring in the south of the Yangtze River, the mist and rain are hazy by the Peach Blossom Stream. Wei Hengliang, a scholar from a poor family, was burdened with the injustice of his family's decline and his father's injustice. He lived alone in a dilapidated courtyard by a stream, with only the loyal and honest scholar Tang Shun'er accompanying him day and night. He was extremely talented, proud and tenacious, unwilling to sink into poverty, and studied poetry and books day and night, just hoping to be named on the gold medal list, wash away the family's reputation, and restore the family name.
At that time, Tan Mansion, a wealthy businessman, owned half of the city's wealth. His daughter Tan Xinyue was born with an alluring gentleness and a pure and soft heart. She had read poetry and books since she was a child. She was tired of the hypocrisy and shackles of the wealthy family and preferred the tranquility of Peach Blossom Creek. The personal maid Wang Xiaocui is smart and loyal, and she always accompanies her on outings in the garden to relax and relieve her worries. One day while taking shelter from a spring rain, Tan Xinyue met Wei Hengliang, who was studying hard, and fell in love at first sight. She pitied him for his lack of talent and miserable circumstances, and even more admired his character of staying true to poverty.
Fate is full of twists and turns, and twists and turns come one after another. Wei Hengliang was forced to go to the capital to take the exam. On the way, he was plotted and imprisoned. His reputation was ruined and he almost died. Tan Xinyue was forced by her parents to marry a powerful man, but she refused to obey, was banned from the house, and was tortured.
