Old Tang Pear Blossoms

A fictional Republic-era story. If you don't subscribe, I won't; when will Tangli ever make a profit? If you don't comment, I won't; when will Jingmo ever get featured?

[The rumor goes: Li Jiutang, the eldest son of the Li family in the capital during the Republic era, fell for the opera singer Zhang Xiaochun. He spent a fortune taking a nobody from an opera troupe and turning him into Second Master Zhang, a household name throughout the capital.

The rumor goes: Zhang Xiaochun is as beautiful as a celestial being descended to earth. Li Jiutang fell in love with him at first sight and didn't care about morality or ethics, determined to be with this male opera performer.

These rumors are obviously nonsense, but people actually believe them! Zhang Xiaochun was so dizzy from hearing it all that his senior apprentice-brother, Cheng Lizhou, was ready to grab a knife and go after Li Jiutang!]

This is a sweet romance set against the backdrop of a business association!

[Cool, scheming seme x foul-mouthed uke]

Tang Che runs into his ex while working as a bar host, then is forced to work under his rival when he looks for a job. Life is rough, but even if things get hard, he could never agree to be kept by that guy. He won't bow to force!

What, you'll pay more? Then it's not about the money.

You'll pay even more? Well, fine. Tang Che isn't spineless, but he can't exactly reject money just to save face.

"You ****! I'm not the one who used to wait on you hand and foot anymore. Got a little money and think you're so **** special now, huh? Go to ****, you *****."

And just like that, the scene where he makes a continuous stream of pointed remarks about Ning Xiu's relatives, centered around the ancestral hall, returns after three years.

There's no helping it. Ning Xiu loves hearing it. Let him curse. He'll stop once he gets tired.
