On their wedding night, Yin Li said sadly, "I'm ugly. It's fortunate that you can't see me."
He felt for her hand and gently wiped away her tears. "In my heart, you're beautiful."
The young woman seemed deeply moved. She threw herself into her blind husband's arms and sobbed...
Once his sight returned, Hua Manlou realized just how badly she'd fooled him.
The beauty tending the flowers and plants heard him and turned around, smiling sweetly at him.

Zhu'er sat on the bed crying, turned away from her husband and refusing to speak to him. At first, she was embarrassed and too proud to let it show, so she held back her tears. But later, she was crying loudly, and Hua Manlou still did nothing. Naturally, she grew even angrier.
Later, Young Master Hua explained that he wasn't sure whether she needed him. If she didn't, he could stay by her side forever. Or he could leave and let her have the bed to herself so she could cry to her heart's content. If she did need him... he had no idea how to comfort her. In the end, she could do whatever she wanted.
Miss Yin was still angry, but she couldn't help laughing. Embarrassed, she punched him once, then threw herself at him for a hug.
Even though she knew he couldn't see, Zhu'er still refused to lift her head. In a muffled voice, she asked, "Will you always be this good to me?"
His body stiffened a little. At first, he was somewhat clumsy, but he soon grew accustomed to holding her. Gently patting her back, he said softly, "We're husband and wife. We're one."
It was a decent answer, but somehow it still felt lacking. Miss Yin pursed her lips and didn't say a word for a while.
After a pause, her sobs began to fade. Suddenly she lifted her head, grabbed the collar of the young man in apricot-colored robes, and growled, "If you can't do that, I'll kill you!"
How wild and fierce she was.
But Hua Manlou turned his head slightly, judged the moment, and handed her a handkerchief. He only murmured, "Oh," as if he hadn't noticed her making such a terrible threat.
Yin Li thought he either looked down on her or hadn't understood her, or maybe he'd been frightened speechless. Pressing her lips together and trying to look fierce, she asked again, "What do you mean by 'oh'?"
"It means, 'I understand.'"
Hua Manlou looked as if he wanted to laugh, but held it back.
He really does look down on me, Miss Yin thought, completely unreasonably.
Impatiently, she took the plain white handkerchief, faintly scented with flowers, and wiped all her tears onto the neat clothes of the young man in apricot-colored robes.
Once she'd had her fill, she turned over and went back to sleep.
