In rural Yudong in 1985, Su Xiaomei was forced into an exchange marriage to save her seriously ill brother, marrying Chen Mo—a "rascal" from the neighboring village rumored to fight and laze around. Clutching scissors to resist, she saw the groom squatting in the corner peeling wedding candy, secretly handing her a Shanghai-brand vanishing cream he'd hidden for half a year: "I know you're unwilling. I'll wait." It turns out Chen Mo's "rascal" act was a pretense—he'd long noticed Xiaomei boiling medicine for her brother, and asked his father to propose the marriage to help her escape a worse fate. When Xiaomei found his college admission letter (he gave up college for her), when he shielded her from a village bully, when he ran ten miles for a doctor when she had a fever—this "idler" had been treating her as his treasure. From resistance to dependence, Xiaomei finally understood: the truest love hides under a "reckless" exterior.
