A Queen in a Vintage-Era Family Feud and Substitute Marriage

In the 1970s, Su Wan is forced to marry into the Gu family in place of her frail younger sister. Faced with harassment from the Gu relatives and her own family constantly taking advantage of her, she acts decisively, leaving her selfish relatives speechless and cutting off their hopes of exploiting her. Gu Yan, captain of the neighborhood security team, initially thinks she’s a cold “stand-in bride.” But time and again, he sees her step in to help: demanding justice for a bullied student, standing up for a mistreated neighbor, and even keeping local gangsters firmly in line. Su Wan may say, “Mind your own business,” but she’s quicker to act than anyone. Gu Yan is fiercely protective of his wife, and the two go from misunderstanding to perfect teamwork. In this lively era, Su Wan makes herself into the bold, admired queen everyone envies, turning even the label of “stand-in bride” into a badge of honor!
