the Hua family has been in business for generations, and by the time it reached father, he had the idea of raising a champion in the Imperial Examination. However, as the only child in the family, I am a girl. father stubbornly and unwisely decided to raise me according to the standards of a champion in the Imperial Examination daughter-in-law.
Music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and wine culture - the house was filled with a succession of scholars.
Perhaps it is because my intelligence exceeds my emotional intelligence that by the age of seventeen, I had not only failed to attract a man who had already or was about to become a "champion in the Imperial Examination," but instead, due to my natural talent for business, I became the pillar of the " the Hua family " shop. Even ordinary matchmakers dared not step in.
Seeing no prospect of marriage, I became anxious. Fortunately, at the age of seventeen, I met " Zhuo Yan," and the long road to becoming a "champion in the Imperial Examination" wife finally had a glimmer of hope.
I am called Hua Anan, a determined young lady aspiring to marry a champion in the Imperial Examination.
When Zhuo Yan arrived in Lin'an City, my cousin who works as a teacher in another province happened to be on vacation in Lin'an for a change of scenery.
I like white peach blossom the most. The night I went out to meet my cousin, I took a remote path to see white peach blossom, but instead of meeting my cousin, I encountered Human trafficker.
That Human trafficker wielded a big knife and forcefully stopped my sedan chair outside the city. I didn't struggle much and went with them. When they brought me to their base - a small thatched cottage, I realized there were many young girls like me inside.
There was also a man, dressed in a crimson robe and wearing a lotus flower jade crown on his head. When he saw me staring at him, he paused and smiled with curved eyebrows.
Tsk tsk, when did even a broken place like Lin'an City start attracting such beauties to settle? I smirked and locked onto my target for a charming pursuit!
I brushed up to his side and straightened the creases on his sleeve, asking, "Sir, do you have a wife?"
He paused and replied, "I do not have a wife."
I looked him up and down, flashed a big, shy smile, and asked, "Young master, what do you think of me? Can you marry me?"
Seeing him frown, I quickly added, "My family has been in business for generations and is a famous merchant in Lin'an City. I have been proficient in business since I was young and am a famous wealthy woman in Lin'an City."
He smiled and glanced at me, "And then?"
I shrugged and laughed, "If you marry me, not only will I be yours, but also the biggest merchant in Lin'an City will be yours."
He finally looked at me directly. Just when I thought he was about to join forces with me to defeat these human traffickers and then we would live happily ever after, he smirked and said, "Is this the legendary buy one get one free? Sounds like a good deal."
Game on!
I was about to further describe how wealthy the Hua family is, and how famous I am, when he smiled and said, "But no matter who it is, I am not interested. I am here to find someone. The person I am looking for is called Momo. Have you heard of her, miss?"
I shook my head randomly. I knew the only person called Momo was empress. He couldn't be looking for empress, could he?
I took out a bamboo cylinder from my sleeve and handed it to him, saying, "Young master, pick a fortune stick!" He hesitated, but eventually decided to pick one, perhaps thinking that if he didn't, I would keep bothering him.
After he finished drawing the lot, I seized the opportunity to grab his hand. In the instant he looked up at me in surprise, I smiled and said, "Sir, you are the destined champion in the Imperial Examination."
Outside the window, the shouts continued to echo in the light of the torches, perhaps indicating the arrival of the officials and soldiers.
In a flickering light, I turned over his hand and revealed the sign with the symbol of Mercury, saying each word slowly, "Young master, you are destined to marry me."
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the person holding a long sword rushed to me anxiously. Before I could finish my sweet words, I looked up and said in a plaintive tone, "Cousin."
Since I was robbed by the human trafficker, I had already counted on my cousin to save me. After all, he had been a sheriff for several years and wasn't just a freeloader.
My cousin and I stood outside, watching the group of human traffickers being subdued by the soldiers. I pointed to a handsome young man and said to my cousin, "Cousin, I need to take him with me."
Cousin squinted at me up and down: "Good."
The handsome young man hesitated, but in the end, my cousin stepped forward and subdued him with a pressure point technique. The servants waiting behind him lifted the handsome young man onto a sedan chair. I lifted the curtain and smiled at the handsome young man, saying, "Let's go home."
