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

Wang Family's aunt shook her head and said, "There's a natural order to these things, we're waiting for Gu Dabao to settle down first. It's just... sigh!"


"What happened?" Gu Youyou asked curiously when she saw the aunt sighing sadly.


The aunt from the Wang Family looked somewhat distressed and lowered her voice to say, "I've secretly inquired that your third uncle has found a son of the Bun Shop in town for Erya, just waiting for Dabao's marriage to be settled before asking the matchmaker to propose. Don't think your third uncle and third aunt are usually quiet, they have high hopes. With only one daughter Erya, naturally, they want her to marry well, how could they fancy my Shunzi?


"Shunzi is honest and simple-hearted, and yet he spends all day trying to please them in a sneaky way. As for the girl, she can't have the final say in her own marriage matters, so isn't he just wasting his efforts for nothing?"


"This..." Gu Youyou smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
