In an accident, modern woman Lin Wanqing traveled back to the Republic of China period and was reborn as a lady who was about to get married. Facing a completely unfamiliar era, she must quickly adapt and hide her modern identity. In this era full of collisions of old and new ideas, Lin Wanqing relied on her wisdom and courage to promote reforms within the family, advocate women's education and independence, and gradually won the respect and support of family members.
At the same time, Zhou Muyun, a young master who returned from studying abroad, with his yearning for freedom and true love, gradually developed a deep relationship with Lin Wanqing through a series of events. The encounter between the two was not only a coincidence of fate, but also a spark of change in the times. They join forces to fight against conservative forces, promote social progress and change, and jointly face the contradiction between family expectations and personal pursuits.
