[Marriage Before Love | Everyday Life | 1v1 | SC]

Steadfast, well-mannered good girl x gentle, aloof jade-like official

Yi Yuan, the legitimate daughter of the Minister's residence, is charming and spirited, with beauty like a jade face and blooming flowers.

Sadly, this lovely girl has had bad luck. She lost her voice as a child and is mute. Rumor has it she brought about the deaths of her closest relatives, making her an ill-omened girl.

Her father despises her and marries her off to a poor official.

On the second day of their marriage, Chang Yan says with some guilt, "You can treat this place as your home, madam, but it is not a home with someone you love."

Yi Yuan hides her happiness and nods. This is exactly what she wants.

She can eat and live for free in someone else's house without having to maintain a fake marriage. Wonderful.

Later, Chang Yan is the first to cross the line. How does Yi Yuan find out?

Chang Yan is always sneaking glances at her, and his ears are always red.

*Below is the blurb for the upcoming novel, "A Brother Brings Good Fortune"

In the third year of Zhenning, rebel forces besiege the city, leaving countless civilians dead and wounded. Jin Yao, one of the lucky survivors, sneaks out of the city unnoticed.

Dizzy with hunger, Jin Yao eats whatever she can find. She drinks river water when thirsty and eats wild grass when hungry. After wandering aimlessly for three days and nights, starving Jin Yao loses consciousness and collapses by the roadside.

When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself lying in a soft, comfortable bed, and, for some reason, she has gained an "older brother."

Jin Yao struggles to sit up and asks in a weak, soft voice, "Who are you?"

Ten-year-old Cui Changyou looks at her with a solemn expression. After a long pause, he says, "I should be the one asking you that."

One day, Cui Changyou is practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard when he spots a delicate, frail little girl hiding behind a pear tree. He comes up with a plan to scare this "younger sister" of unknown origin.

Cui Changyou levels his sword, pointing the blade at Jin Yao's neck. He expects her to burst into tears, but in the next moment, Jin Yao carefully places the pear blossom in her hand on the sword.

The sword's surface clearly reflects the pear blossom, as well as the little girl's smiling face.

"Here, Big Brother. It's for you."

Later, Jin Yao is found by the Jin family. When it is time to part, Cui Changyou says nothing, silently watching Jin Yao walk away.

A year later, Cui Changyou returns to Chang'an with his father, having earned great military honors. The two meet again at a banquet, and someone jokes, "Brother and sister haven't seen each other in ages. Shouldn't you catch up?"

Cui Changyou says coldly, "I don't have a sister."

Jin Yao responds with a cold look.

That night, Cui Changyou sneaks into the Jin residence and stands beside Jin Yao's bed. He takes her hand and curls his lips into a smile. "What, don't you welcome your big brother?"
