Lin Wanxing wakes up to find herself in the 1970s, inhabiting the body of a married woman in a remote mountain village. Her husband, Shen Jianguo, is a soldier who's rarely home, and she's surrounded by seven children as skinny as bean sprouts. With bare walls and wild greens for food, vicious relatives watching hungrily from the front and the pressure to survive closing in from behind, she grips the space jade pendant in her hand. It's her only means of surviving in this unfamiliar era.
Inside the space are fertile fields and flowing water, perfect for growing grain and vegetables. Lin Wanxing rolls up her sleeves and gets to work, warming the children's stomachs with a bowl of hot porridge and silencing idle gossips with her abilities. She makes a lively, fulfilling life for them.
Just as she thinks she can settle down in the mountain village, her husband Shen Jianguo, who until now existed only in rumors, suddenly returns. Dressed in his military uniform, he stands tall and straight. His gaze is scrutinizing and distant, yet when he sees the children wolfing down their food, an imperceptible ripple stirs in his eyes.
From the chaotic life in the mountain village to the challenging military family compound, Lin Wanxing takes the children along with her every step of the way. She improves their meals with what she grows in her space, resolves disputes with the neighbors through her cleverness, and melts the ice around Shen Jianguo's heart with her sincerity. Facing doubts from others, provocation from romantic rivals, and even a lurking border crisis, she always stands tall at Shen Jianguo's side.
The seven adorable children gradually grow up, and her husband's love for her deepens day by day. Lin Wanxing puts down roots in this era. From a barren mountain village to a border garrison, she creates happiness with her own hands and protects her family with love, writing a story of military-family passion and warmth through turbulent times.
