During the Republic of China, Sioux City's water alleys were filled with mist and rain. Sixteen-year-old Zhong Qiaoying took over the silver shuttle and dyeing factory left behind by her mother. Faced with the dilemma of her second uncle seizing power and the mystery of her mother's death, she reconciled the accounts with the dark pattern of the lotus and used the sky-blue dye method to establish her authority, opening a bloody path in the male-dominated business world.
The loom is the battlefield, and the brocade is the sword and gun - she restarted the "peacock's tail" loom to make the brocade stunning Shanghai; created the code of the twenty-four solar terms and used warp and latitude lines to convey anti-war intelligence; she improved the "electric brocade" into a military waterproof cloth to protect the country with her craftsmanship.
In the troubled times, three gentlemen fell in love with her: Lu Huaijin was like a blazing sun, and he hired a silver shuttle, promising her to get married when she was safe, but left behind faded red leaves in the beacon fire of Songhu; Song Yunlan was like sinking in the deep sea. Zhou, who hides his identity as an underground party under his cynicism, fakes a marriage and turns into a true wife, accompanying her step by step in the secret war; Chen Shusheng is as clear and moist as the moonlight, uses his chemistry talent to learn to protect her from worries, and practices it throughout his life. "As long as you are well, I will not disturb you." The gardenia courtyard hides the deep love of half a lifetime.
Family fights, business wars, and espionage wars are intertwined, and dyes hide poisons, brocades hide secrets, and people's hearts hide dangers. Zhong Qiaoying holds a silver shuttle in her hand and weaves a legend between the dye vat and the beacon fire: "What the machine weaves is cloth, and what we weave by hand is the soul; what I weave is the peace of the family and the country, and the deep love for a lifetime."
This is a female epic of the Republic of China with brocade weaving skills as its core, family and country's righteousness as its soul, and three deep emotions as its veins. Watch the little girl take charge of the family, weave beautiful mountains and rivers, and finally win your heart.
