The Everyday Life of a Silly Beauty Being Spoiled

Jiang Wuyu was breathtakingly beautiful but foolish, and still unmarried at eighteen.

One day, she was tricked into a hasty marriage with the frail young master of Prince Su's manor, who'd been bedridden for years and seemed likely to die at any moment.

The people of the capital waited to see the couple make fools of themselves.

--Xi Yansang was sickly, and Jiang Wuyu was headstrong. One would probably be angered to death early, and the other would spend half her life a widow.

To plan his escape from the manor, Xi Yansang had pretended to be sick for years. When he married Jiang Wuyu, he'd long heard of the foolish beauty's "great reputation," so he made things clear to her: The manor is dangerous. For now, you and I are in the same boat. I'll do my best to protect you, so don't hold me back.

He thought they were just two birds sharing the same forest, each destined to fly away one day.

Later,

As Prince Su's manor rose, fell, and finally collapsed, the people of the capital never saw the young couple meet a miserable end.

Instead, they saw the sickly young master rise to the highest ranks, while the foolish beauty received a noble title. The two shared wealth and glory.

Everyone said, "Fools have their own good fortune. Jiang Wuyu is incredibly lucky."

But Xi Yansang alone remembered that, when they escaped Prince Su's manor, Jiang Wuyu had pulled him along, her eyes shining like stars as she said without a care, "So what if it's a den of dragons or tigers? I'm here."

At that moment, Xi Yansang understood that no matter if this life brought him a mountain of blades or a sea of fire, he would protect her.

[Bonus Scene]

There was no mountain of blades or sea of fire, only Jiang Wuyu, who was full of ambition to support Xi Yansang after they escaped Prince Su's manor.

Jiang Wuyu tried to cook, and black smoke billowed from the stove.

Jiang Wuyu tried to make money to support the family, but couldn't understand the business plan.

In the third year of Jiang Wuyu's grand plans, the deposed crown prince returned to the capital to claim the throne. Rumor had it that he had a jade-faced Rakshasa in his service, a cruel and ruthless man who could silence crying children and held a grudge against Prince Su's manor.

Jiang Wuyu worried that her gentle, quiet husband would get caught up in it all and wondered how she could protect Xi Yansang.

Until the jade-faced Rakshasa walked into her home, carrying vegetables and a duck, along with the neatly prepared account books for the Jiang family's shops.

Xi Yansang called helplessly, "Dear, come over for some soup later."

Jiang Wuyu: He seems pretty thoughtful?
