The heroine of this story, Zhao Shuangli, moved with her mother to Pear Blossom Village after her father died when she was six. At fifteen, she dropped out of school for various reasons. Out of kindness, she took pity on Er Zhu, the village fool, and from then on treated him like a younger brother.
To her surprise, Wang Cui came up with the absurd idea of having her marry her son, Er Zhu, and often spread rumors about her among the neighbors. To put an end to the idea, Zhao Min arranged for her to go to the city and work as a nanny at the "Yuxi Shengyuan."
Zhao Shuangli fell for Qi Xuanyu, who lived at the "Yuxi Shengyuan," and the two began a relationship...
[The angst comes mostly in the later part. I wanted to tag it as a bad ending, but there was no way to do that.]
