Modern office worker Su Yue falls into a well and transmigrates into the body of Su Qingyue, the disgraced legitimate daughter of a merchant family in an ancient village.
The moment she opens her eyes, she finds herself trapped beneath three mountains: an unreasonable creditor, a reputation condemned by everyone, and a family in tatters.
Faced with the mess left by the original owner's spoiled, wasteful ways, she has no choice but to shoulder the responsibility.
To pay off the debts, she puts her skills from her previous life to work and earns a living. While running a street stall, she meets Chen Jin, a refined and courteous scholar.
To escape her reputation, she disguises herself as a man and sets up a business of her own. Through her sincerity and kindness, she eventually clears her name.
To mend her family, she focuses on simply being the best version of herself. She only meant to pay off the original owner's debts, but with her mother and younger sister, she comes to know a love she has never experienced before...
Just as the family begins working together and their lives start steadily improving, the creditor conspires with local officials to obstruct them again and again.
By a twist of fate, a marriage contract binds her destiny tightly to Chen Jin's, while also bringing to light hidden secrets about both families' pasts and political strife at court.
The story begins with one person giving in half-heartedly and the other secretly falling in love. After many bumps in the road and storms along the way, the two finally stand side by side.
