After a sudden tragedy, her husband, Pei Huai, died.
But when his body was carried home, Xu Yun recognized that the dead man wasn’t Pei Huai, but his twin brother, Pei Yu.
Pei Huai took Pei Yu’s identity and continued to live happily with Shen Zhaozhao, while telling Xu Yun to accept what had happened.
When Xu Yun realized her love had been misplaced, she told Pei Huai outright that they had already divorced, then left the Pei residence with her dowry and daughter!
Without her dowry to cover the Pei family’s expenses, Pei Huai had no choice but to humble himself and beg her to return. He was willing to take on the responsibilities of both households and care for his widowed sister-in-law.
Xu Yun politely declined. Their daughter was disgusted, and Pei Huai completely lost it, even confessing his true identity to them.
Xu Yun played dumb: “What husband? He’s my ex-husband, and he’s been dead for ages.”
Their daughter was puzzled: “What father? He’s my uncle. Anyway, I only need my mother.”
A certain herdsman, green with jealousy, pulled them both close. “Sorry, these are my wife and my precious girl. Outsiders, keep your distance.”
