Cherry Blossoms Falling

The village girl who was close to death from illness was about to marry, and her suitor was a strong and hearty hunter.
Having time-traveled to a poor and backward mountain village, she had resigned herself to the lack of three square meals a day, but was her new body already halfway into the grave? What's more curious was that someone still wanted to marry her despite being on her deathbed?
Driven by curiosity, she went ahead with the marriage, eager to see who the unlucky sap was who'd lose his betrothal gifts and even the coffin money.
Cradled in his arms, her body was thin as a rake, and she really wanted to ask him, "Husband, does holding me hurt your hands?"

The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law

Gu Feng said irritably, "No, how could it get better? I'll have to be careful for the rest of my life."


Hearing Gu Feng say this, they suddenly lost interest.


Though farming families also wanted to find a wife with good looks, having good health was key.


Good health meant the ability to work, and good health meant the ability to bear sons.


If one were sickly all their life, what if the son born was also sickly?


On a fine noon, Gu Youyou saw from afar a pink and white patch in a hollow behind the hill that looked just like a haze.


The mist drifting in the hollow formed a hazy veil that gently concealed the beauty.


As Wang Family's aunt approached Gu Youyou's house, she saw from afar Gu Youyou staring blankly at a spot in the hollow. Getting closer, she said softly with a laugh, "Youyou, you fell ill at seven and were confined indoors to recuperate until recently. Have you forgotten what flowers look like?"
