In the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, when the blood in the rice vat dyed the corner of his clothes red, Amin was already dead - the one who survived was the avenger who hid a folding knife and went by the pseudonym "Zhao Su". She sneaked into Longxing Society, where her family's enemy Long Ye was killed, and worked as a bookkeeper. She calculated the accounts on her fingertips, and in her heart were the screams of her parents ten years ago and the crackling sound of the "Zhao Ji Herbal Medicine" plaque.
On the way to revenge, she bumps into Mr. Long's confidant Xie Chen. This cold-faced man always protects her in the dark: he hands her a life-saving note when Lei Bao makes things difficult, blocks his fist for her when Paramount is in crisis, and the words "Be careful in checking accounts" are hidden in the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It wasn't until she saw the mole behind his ear that she realized it was brother Ayuan who had promised to "protect you forever" in childhood.
From the dark alleys of Shanghai to the old house in Nanjing, she clung to the clues about her father's "Zangfeng Room" and narrowly escaped death in the pursuit of Lord Long and the conspiracy of foreigners. But as soon as Mr. Long was brought to justice, the "Black Crow Society" came to find the powerful people in the ledger, forcing her and her newborn son Nian'an into danger.
In the shadow of the sword, Xie Chen's back blocking the gun, Su Qing's determination to rebel, and the neighbors holding up their hoes to protect her, made her understand: revenge is not the end, protection is. In the end, she used the herbs passed down by her father, Xie Chen's gun, and the warmth of her neighbors to temporarily break the conspiracy.
The Osmanthus Alley teahouse in Hangzhou opened. Amin held Nian'an in her arms and looked at Xie Chen's side face making tea - the stability she thought might be just the prelude to the next storm.

I thought it was an ordinary cool article, but when I opened it, I was hit by the heroine's "hardness"! Don't act like a weak little white flower, you can pick up a knife and understand people's hearts. Every plot twist is like unboxing a blind box. Who knows if you stay up late and want to watch it again?
