Summary:
Pei Jiu picked up a girl by the riverside. He settled her on the mountain, and planned to send her back once she recovered. This delicate girl was a useless crybaby, so Pei Jiu had to be a nice person. He cooked her food and washed her clothes. He let the troublesome girl ride on his shoulders so she could pick fruits. During winter, he would warm up the bed for her. One day, she hugged Pei Jiu’s arm with a smile. “Big Brother Pei, you’re really an honest and a good man. I will marry you and give birth to your babies!”
Pei Jiu eyed her critically and scathingly enumerated her shortcomings. She was ignorant and spoiled. She only knew how to pester and flirt with people all day long. Give birth to babies? Go ahead, give birth to caterpillars.
The delicate girl bawled so hard that she passed out. The next day, Pei Jiu returned to his mansion and told his servants to prepare for his wedding ceremony. When he returned to the mountain in the evening, Pei Jiu opened the door as usual, but he found that the cheeky girl had disappeared. He searched the whole mountain for her to no avail. No one would act like a spoiled brat in front of him anymore. What a headache.
Review:
It is a short story so shouldn't expect much. At first it looks promising, the twist is easily guessed but the plot is good. But toward the end it just rushed and that's it. It's not a good ending nor a bad ending.
ML saved MC, MC said she is the crown prince fiancee from neighbor country. ML is a regent (different country from MC), current emperor is his nephew. He is close to previous emperor but after young emperor ascended, the queen mother and the emperor doesn't trust ML. ML went back to his territory.
MC and ML live together in the mountain for some time. Then MC went back to her country without saying anything to ML. MC is actually the crown prince, her queen mother was not favored so she and her family lied that MC is a boy. MC has a cousin who is close to her, he is also forcing her to keep being the crown prince. MC step brother who compete with her also knew her identity when he injured her. He resent MC a lot but then he realize he didn't want to kill her. MC cousin actually like her, he vow he never marry so he can assist her. MC always thought her father will let her become emperor so she didn't do anything. Then the step brother set a trap, kill MC cousin. Then he sealed MC memory and gave her to ML. MC lost her memory and ML just took her as his wife. That's the end.
