After she goes blind, her deceased young husband somehow comes back to life, still as sickly as ever. Jiang Xueyu takes out her anger on him, blaming him for becoming a ghost just to make her suffer.
After she makes it through the winter, her eyesight returns, and her husband's ghost disappears too.
Their marriage was merely a contract. Once the three-year mourning period is over, she goes to reclaim what they agreed upon, only to be told that she is already dead?
Jiang Xueyu sneers, turns around, and sets the house ablaze. Just as she is about to leave, a wedding procession appears on the mountain path, blocking her way. The man at its head says slowly, "My dear Xueyu, where are you going, leaving your husband behind?"
His voice sounds much like that of her dead husband, except it is deeper and steadier...

He is the least favored illegitimate son in his family. When disaster strikes the household, they try to make him take the blame. Fleeing for his life, he hides in a mountain cottage when he is on the verge of death, only for the blind widow living there to mistake him for her late husband...
Wounded from head to toe, Shen Yunze has to help her get dressed and eat, wash her clothes and apply her medicine, and read her bedtime stories. And that's not enough: every night he has to warm her bed, too?!
He stays with her until the day her sight returns, but Shen Yunze has no choice but to leave to avenge himself.
Three years later, the once-destitute young man has transformed into a high-ranking official, seated in the Dali Temple.
As the Meng family's massacre case is reopened, no one in the courtroom dares to speak, afraid that one wrong word will cost them their heads too.
A woman barges in and slaps the cold-faced man. "How can you not even wash clothes properly? Now there's a hole in it. How am I supposed to wear it?"
Everyone present breaks out in a cold sweat, only to hear him ask, "Qingqing, does your hand hurt?"
Happy ending | Sweet romance
Slightly flirtatious, frank woman x taciturn, jealous, cold-faced man
Both leads are pure in body and heart
The supernatural elements are purely atmospheric, with no fantasy elements
Set in an imaginary world, with no historical research. Just enjoy the story ^_^
Theme: You don't have to be perfect to find true love
Before the slap came the fragrance of snow elm 🧋
