[Business in the early chapters, some political intrigue later on, sweet romance with only each other]
Shen Yuan, who died unexpectedly, transmigrates into a book and becomes the original wife who married into the family for good luck, only for Xiao Ji, a future powerful official, to die a tragic death.
Unwilling to meet a miserable end, Shen Yuan plans to earn enough money for travel expenses, then leave her husband and get away from her greedy family.
She sells rice noodle rolls, writes popular stories, and opens a restaurant, thriving with the skills and mind-reading ability she gained in her previous life.
In the end, she earns enough to run away and gets rid of her family, but she just can't shake off the future powerbroker!
With no other choice, she reluctantly sticks with him and enjoys the good life.

Xiao Ji, as written by the author: handsome and distinguished, cold and desireless, with an almost supernatural intelligence.
Xiao Ji, as Shen Yuan sees him: The deeper I love you, the heavier the money I give you. (In plain terms: stingy.)
The old Xiao Ji crouched in a corner, counting the copper coins in his hands over and over. “All right, since she bought candy for Mother, I'll give her twenty more wen.”
The Xiao Ji of later years: Buy whatever you want. Everything I own is yours.
The male lead quickly discovers that the female lead and the original owner of this body are two different people, and their feelings develop gradually. The only drawback is that the female lead's mind-reading ability seems to be intermittent.
Excellent, definitely worth watching.
It's alright, I guess!
