A short historical romance, written in an unstable state of mind. Angsty, enter at your own risk!!!
The Princess Anning of the Duke of Wei's household is a wild girl, while the legitimate son of General Gu's household is a mad boy. Childhood friends, they tease and bicker, natural enemies and a perfect match by nature.
Before he leaves for battle, he takes the embroidered pouch she made, crooked stitches and all, and says the wild geese on it look like chickens and ducks, and wearing it on his waist will only embarrass him. Furious, she throws it into a ditch.
He fights through bloody battles with the pouch tucked against him and returns victorious. He visits her family to ask for her hand, and their families set a wedding date. Before the wedding, he sneaks into her room with wine in the middle of the night. They drink until they're both dead drunk. Holding her, he rambles on and on. The man who usually can't open his mouth without making some snide remark tells her a string of sappy things: he survived because of her pouch, she is the blessing Heaven bestowed upon him, and their marriage is Heaven's will.
But Heaven had deceived them...
