Hold you in my arms, make the whole hall drunk on flowers
[Ruthless, Obsessive Young General x Gentle, Teasing Palace Maid]
Yin Qingzhi grew up in the palace. But her troublemaking mother caught the eye of a widower from the Wan family, whose wife had died years ago. By a twist of fate, the palace released Yin Qingzhi when she came of age, and she followed her mother into the Wan household.
Only, why was this man so different from what she'd imagined...
The eldest son of the Wan family had a face as handsome as jade, but behaved like a carefree rogue. As a result, he played tricks on Yin Qingzhi several times.
Wan Xishou: "Aunt Yin said I should take you to the plum garden outside the city this afternoon."
Yin Qingzhi: "Really?"
The plum grove was vast, the snowy ground slippery, and her feet were freezing. Meanwhile, Wan Xishou said, "Stay here and enjoy the plum blossoms. I'm leaving first."
The carriage never returned...
Life is full of twists and turns. Even a wealthy household can't last forever. Wan Xishou turned over a new leaf and became a military officer, spending every day at the training grounds. Yin Qingzhi, following her mother's instructions, also had to bring him meals every day.
Yin Qingzhi: "Are you going to eat or not? If not, I'm leaving."
Wan Xishou: "I'll eat. I will."
Later, hoping to earn merit and restore the family fortune, Yin Qingzhi obeyed her mother's orders and was about to marry a twice-wed general sent to the border to repel the enemy. But the wedding kept being delayed, and as Wan Xishou left, he warned her, "Stay in the capital and be well. Wait for me to return."
Yin Qingzhi agreed.
Later still, Yin Qingzhi became a young widow. In the first year of mourning, Wan Xishou thought to himself, "They never even held a wedding ceremony or got married. What is she mourning for?"
