Auntie

Blurb:

A bandit attack ravaged the village. Cheng Yu's husband died by a bandit's blade while protecting her and their child.

With his dying breath, he pressed a jade pendant into Cheng Yu's hand and told her to take their child to Xiyue County to find a bodyguard named Pei Gang. He was an old friend, and when he saw the pendant, he would take them in.

After burying her husband, Cheng Yu set off with her two-year-old son and traveled a great distance to Xiyue County. It took a lot of asking before she finally found Pei Gang's home.

She knocked, but the person who opened the door was a handsome young gentleman.

He looked about seventeen or eighteen, and she could not imagine how he could possibly be Pei Gang.

Before she could think it through, the real Pei Gang came out from the courtyard.

Only then did Cheng Yu learn that the young man was Pei Gang's son, Pei Xuan'an.

Tall and upright, with the grace of a gentle breeze and bright moon, the young man stood in the courtyard, nodded to her, and politely said, "Auntie."
