Summary
Jinshi has been ordered by the Emperor to inspect the progress of the potatoes and other crops Lahan's brother helped set up in some of the more remote villages of the Eastern Province. There's a catch though... Apparently dreamed up by the Empress herself: He's to do so under the guise of a merchant traveling with his wife. And who better to play the part than a certain apothecary...
Otherwise known as: everyone is tired of Jinshi and Maomao dancing around each other and conspire to get them to work things out already.
Some slight spoilers up to LN14. It shouldn't be anything too dramatic, but if you want to make sure you're not spoiled for anything, definitely read the light novels first.
ALSO: So far, if you want to skip really explicit scenes, the only chapter that has that is Chapter 5. I've made it fairly stand alone, so you can skip over it pretty easily if you want to avoid that kind of thing. I'll update here and at the beginning of any future chapters that have more explicit materials as well.

Summary
A collection of essays about our favorite buns. The chapters are not interconnected. A part of them is a continuation of the LN's scene, a part is a continuation of the canon. A brief description of the chapters and spoilers before each chapter. New stories can be added whenever inspiration strikes the author. Chapters 1-2 are continuations of the novel scenes, chapter 3 contains minor spoilers of the events of the novel, 4-6 are post-canon, all events are fictional.
Last updated: "Special day".
Can a person truly mourn something they never had?
Maomao had never liked her birthday.
What significance could this event have had for her, if even on the day of her birth no one was waiting for her with love? Her mother greeted the newborn with revulsion, and her father didn't even know of the child's existence - he was immersed in his own affairs, in a world where there was no place for Maomao. And the madam merely grumbled, counting the cost of one more mouth to feed.
Everyone had always been indifferent to her. Yet, strangely, it had never truly hurt Maomao. She simply didn't know how things could be different.
This time, something was broken.

Summary
In the sterile logic of the 21st century, there is no room for ghosts. A lesson learned through years of therapy and medication. The life he remembers - An imperial court, a forbidden love, a promise shattered by death - is not a memory. This grief, not a wound to be healed, but a symptom to be managed. The life he remembers is given a clinical name - his memories are the illness; the prescription is to forget.
For more than a decade, he tried to believe them.
But when a viral video captures the face of a bottle girl in a Shanghai night club, the lie comes undone. It is her - The same cynical eyes, the same untamable spirit - The ghost had made flesh.

Summary
"And here now is the problem. Maomao isn’t actually a very good liar."
(Spoilers up to the end of LN 12!)
In the bandit camp Maomao is questioned a little more incessantly on the topic of her supposed husband.
"The best lies, in her experience, are always the ones closest to the truth. The ones that weave the threads of fact and fiction into one, uniform fabric, indistinguishable.
There is only one person who has ever expressed real interest in her hand in marriage. Who has held her in his arms and kissed her. There can be no future for their relationship in truth, but just, says the little voice in the back of her head, imagine."In which Maomao has to improvise and talk some more about her "husband", Xiaohong grows stronger and is smarter than anyone gives her credit for, and Jinshi is only there by hearsay, until he finally has his Maomao back. Then he is, once again, so in love.
AU / Missing scenes of the bandit camp and what happens after.
