[Marriage Before Love]
Gu Yuying was reborn, back at the moment when she and Gu Yujiao fell into the water together. In this life, she pushed away the short-lived general with the burly build, and leaped toward the heir who would become the top scholar of the imperial examinations, the man who had granted Gu Yujiao a life of honor and favor in her previous life.
Gu Yuying smiled as she watched her dear cousin in a bright red wedding dress, about to marry into the bitterly cold borderlands. She recalled how, in her previous life, that short-lived general had rushed to the border on horseback before even consummating the marriage, only to die in battle, leaving no body behind.
She felt a pang of pity as she watched her cousin about to become a widow. But then news of a great victory at the border arrived and left her stunned. Before she could even think it through, her husband, the heir, was appointed county magistrate at the border.
But wasn’t he supposed to become a widower? How had her cousin, whom she’d hated since childhood, ended up being cherished by the husband who had been short-lived in her previous life, enjoying his favor all her life?
A little scene: Everyone in the military camp said that the general looked fierce and terrifying, and his new bride would run away sooner or later.
Who would have thought they’d see the general’s little wife corner him in a secluded spot and pin him against the wall? They even heard the young madam threaten him fiercely: “Big Bear, I want sour plum juice!”
Everyone thought to themselves, This is it. The general is definitely going to scare his little wife off.
But in the next instant, their usually terrifying general scooped his petite wife into his arms and gently soothed her. “Be good, Jiaojiao. How about your husband makes you some after a little while?”
Everyone: ...
The next day, word that the general was henpecked had spread throughout the entire military camp.
