Tang Yue was born into a scholarly family. Her skin was fair as snow, and she had bright eyes and pearly teeth.
But her father ignored her, and her stepmother disliked her. She lived on tenterhooks. With her grandmother gravely ill, her stepmother was about to send her off as a concubine to her nephew, a wastrel who drank, gambled, and chased women.
Worried about what lay ahead, she accidentally bumped into someone in the garden.
He was imposing and upright. Tang Yue felt her cheeks redden and thought to herself, What a handsome man.
Wei Ming was reborn, back thirty years in the past. In this life, he still planned to follow the same path as before, retracing his steps, if only so he could meet her again.
The woman who had haunted his thoughts for the rest of his life, the woman he had longed for for most of his life, yet could never have.
In his previous life, he had made his fortune through the imperial examinations, working hard until he reached the highest official rank. His only regret was that one year, he had taken a liking to a girl beneath a tree but hadn't found the courage to speak to her.
After agonizing over it at home for several days, he finally went to ask for her hand, only to discover she had already married. That one missed chance cost him a lifetime. She died not long after her wedding, and he never married, growing old alone.
Given another life, he would make sure to have no regrets.

With her grandmother gravely ill and her stepmother so cruel, Tang Yue never imagined that the poor scholar she'd met only once would personally bring his elderly mother to ask for her hand in marriage.
That day, her stepmother was unusually kind, taking her hand. "Yue'er, the Wei family may be poor, but your future husband is a scholar. If you marry him, you'll eventually make something of yourself."
At first, her stepmother had refused to approve the match. But when she learned that he was a poor scholar with many brothers, a family that couldn't afford enough food or decent clothes, no academic honors, and a betrothal gift of just three eggs and a bolt of coarse cloth, she immediately agreed to the marriage.
After all, they looked like a terrible family, and Tang Yue would surely be tormented to death once she married into it.
At first, Tang Yue was worried too. Any marriage her stepmother agreed to couldn't possibly be a good one. But after marrying into the family, she discovered that her clever stepmother had been fooled.
After the wedding, the couple lived in harmony. Life was hard, but peaceful. Within a few years, her husband passed the examinations, and their life kept getting better.

Theme: Life isn't always smooth sailing. Sunshine comes after the storm.
The article I wrote recently was more of an outline. In fact, I could write a little more detail. For example, in Chapter 95, Wei Ming and Tang Yue's reactions when sending Wei Si to private school. Assuming that they had sex in bed at night, Wei Ming stroked Tang Yue's hair and said: "Sisi is getting older, so we let her learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting instead. It's just that the fifth younger brother and sister (that's what they say, right?) Are now taking Wei Xiu (or the eldest sister?) , It's not convenient to teach Sisi anymore. And if you let the fifth younger sister take care of Sisi, people outside may say something bad about you. Although I know you don't mind, I don't want to wrong you." As he said this, Wei Ming stretched out his hand to hold Tang Yue's hand, and clasped his fingers. Tang Yue looked at Wei Ming's gentle smile and said shyly: "Since my husband said this, he must have already made up his mind. I think he is very thoughtful, so I will listen to him." Wei Ming was very happy to hear that Tang Yue trusted him so much. He rubbed the back of Tang Yue's hand and said, "I did find out about a girls' private school. This girls' private school was owned by an old man who came out of the palace a few years ago. Grandma opened it. She was the steward in the palace of XX Empress (such as Concubine XX/Concubine XX). Although she was quite strict, she could teach children how to read and write, and she could also teach them how to arrange flowers and drink tea. " After hearing this, Tang Yue smiled and nodded, then frowned and said worriedly: "This private school sounds really good, but can she accept Sisi? How about I pay a visit first, or ask the fifth sister's parents' family for help?" Wei Ming smiled proudly and said, "No need. In the early years, grandma personally selected her husband and was strict with her requirements. But in recent years, as long as she paid more money, she would accept it because her man had that strange disease and needed money. Even so, she still made a rule that my father must You must be an official in the court, and you must be at least five years old. I am just right. And the age of the woman cannot be more than eight years old. Although Sisi is still far away from eight years old, it is better to study sooner rather than later. Although it is expensive, it is worth it. " You can read books by other authors and learn their writing skills. If you are willing, I can also privately chat with you about several authors and books. If you think my suggestion is not good, just take it as a fart and don't affect your mood (?ò ? ó?)
Help, Wei Yang in this chapter is really different from the previous one...
I finished reading it in one night. The article is good. A family's life is long and flowing. There are just a lot of typos, mainly people's names are always wrong, which affects reading a bit.
Alas, we should ask someone to find out about this girl. It's okay for her to be an orphan. If she runs away from concubine, she will be in trouble.
This little son died for a woman
The name is wrong. Isn't Wei Xiu the daughter of Wei Wang? How did she become Wei Ming's daughter?
I feel like the writing is a bit stiff in some places.
Marrying as a wife, running as a concubine, ancient times were really harsh on women. Once a woman is not good enough, she is in the abyss. It is clear that both men and women are at fault, but the consequences for women are worse, and women are scolded more. Wei Yang is really disgusting, a refined egoist, and it is naive to make amends after making mistakes...
