In the fifth year of the reign of the Great Tang, Cheng Yaojin's wife was none other than the renowned daughter of the Five Families and Seven Hopes from Qinghe, surnamed Cui!
After Cheng Yaojin's original wife, Sun, passed away when the world was peaceful, Cheng Yaojin wanted to marry a daughter of the Five Families and Seven Hopes.
As a man of such birth marrying another after the death of a spouse, he was not worthy of a maiden. Ultimately, he married the eldest daughter of the Cui family from Qinghe, who was in her forties and had been married before.
Historically, Cheng Yaojin showed great respect and immense affection towards his remarried wife, Cui, even leaving a will to be buried alongside her.
Though there are certainly elements of interest involved, it could be considered a lifetime of true love. No wonder he's so anxious over her labor difficulties, to the point of rushing to the temple to find help.
