Marriage first, love later/age difference
1.
When Shen Huaning met Xie Shiyan for the first time, she was afraid of him engraved into her bones.
She went to the banquet with her elders for Mr. Xie's 80th birthday.
The Xie family's more than ten hectares of winding garden led her sister to forget about Shen Huaning, and she accidentally entered the back garden in the misty rain.
White walls, dark tiles, flying eaves and corners.
It was drizzling in Nanjiang that day, and she saw a man sitting in the pavilion. He was wearing an incongruous new suit and had an aloof and majestic look on his face.
Standing in front of him were the Xie family members who had been showing off and domineering for several days.
Xie Shiyan was making tea slowly and slowly until the number of people fell down and their faces turned red and white.
When the tail of his narrow eyes came over, Shen Huaning, who was peeking from the corner, was too frightened to say anything.
Later, he walked over slowly and couldn't tell the temperature, "Are you afraid it will be like this?"
The elder happened to come over and said Ning Ning, this is Uncle Xie.
She was sixteen that year and was too scared to raise her eyes to look at him.
Unexpectedly, in a sudden change, she would become Mrs. Xie of this illustrious family.

The marriage between the Nanjiang Xie and Chen families fell on Shen Huaning and Xie Shiyan. It was an accident.
The unloved daughter of the Shen family married into the Xie family, and everyone was not optimistic about this marriage.
Shen Huaning heard the arrogance and neglect of the Xie family and the gossip in the city.
She only saw him a handful of times during the year of her marriage. She went to the capital to study alone, and he really never came to see her once.
At that time, Shen Huaning knew that she was Mrs. Xie, but Mr. Xie would not love her.
3.
Until that year, the Xie family worshiped their ancestors and the mighty clan.
On the bluestone steps of the mountain road, he lifted up the hem of his coat and carried her through the 1,118 moss-covered steps.
Everyone watched, no one dared to look down upon her again.
Before the ancestor's final resting place, he held her hand solemnly and tenderly.
"Ning Ning."
"Being Mrs. Xie is what I ask for from you."
Later, she accidentally opened the marriage certificate and saw two extra lines.
It's his strong handwriting.
"Ning Ning, I'm right for you."
"Frost, wind, snow and rain, life and death follow."
Her heart skipped a beat.
For the rest of her life, which is slow and long, she will guard this illustrious family with him.
