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 Youyou scoffed disappointedly, raised her hand, and gently touched his chest where the sweet cake had been placed and asked, "Does it hurt?"


Gu Youyou smiled and said, "It must have been very hot when you first bought it!"


Jin Zijin slightly furrowed his brow. Even through the thick fabric, he could feel the coolness of her small hand seeping into his heart and lungs.


His body instinctively wanted to draw closer to her, yearning for more.


In a daze, for a fleeting moment, he lost his reason and suddenly grabbed her hand, pressing it tightly against his chest.


Gu Youyou felt as if her hand was being pressed by a scalding hot iron, the force was so strong that it was somewhat painful.


She let out a soft moan, wanting to pull her hand back, but she couldn't get it free.


Meeting Jin Zijin's intense gaze, she heard his voice, slightly hoarse,


"Youyou, it does hurt, it's burning hot, you cooling it down would be nice!"
