[Glamourous Beauty x Blackened Flower of Kaolin]
Liu Ying'er has a beautiful face. When she was fifteen years old, she fled famine and came to the capital. She was taken in by a handsome scholar who came to Beijing to take the exam.
But while the scholar was away, she took away his money and fled back to her hometown. She used the money to save her uncle's family who raised her.
Three years later, Liu Que'er was sold to the powerful He family by her ruthless uncle to bring joy to the family's bedridden eldest son.
After being carried in the sedan chair, Liu Que'er realized that the second young master of the He family, who won the first prize three years ago and was now rising rapidly in the officialdom, was the scholar she had offended back then.

He Teng was the concubine of the prince. He was very talented, but was not favored by his father and grandmother. When he was seventeen years old, he used all his savings to go to Beijing to take the exam, and rented a remote courtyard in the capital to study in peace.
On a rainy day, a young woman in tattered clothes knocked on his door and said, "Sir, help me, let me go in and hide."
The woman was slim and graceful, with a pretty face and spring water in her eyes. Her wet hair was draped over her shoulders, and her shabby clothes were soaked by the rain. She was extremely pitiful.
He had always been cold-hearted, but this time, through the mist and rain, he felt compassion.
The woman hid in his yard and was grateful to him. Even though he treated him coldly, the woman still insisted on lighting a fire and cooking for him. On the eve of his examination, the woman even spoke softly and tenderly, lying next to his legs, saying that she would marry him as his wife and have children for him.
By the time he came out of the examination room, the woman had already taken his money and ran away without a trace.

Liu Queer's husband was terminally ill and unconscious. Since entering the house, her courtyard door has been closed tightly every night, but the screen window of her bedroom clearly reflected two intertwined figures. The vegetation in the courtyard was desolate, but the spring light was floating in her room.
"Sister-in-law, do you still remember me?"
Intention: You are shallow and ignorant, but I still love you
