The winter snow in the south of the Yangtze River cannot seal the grievances of seven years; the centuries-old ancient village hides the grievances of two generations.
Su Qingyi guarded the ancestral Yunjin Village, pulling her young son to survive alone amid the family's obstruction and the suspicion of her deceased husband. In a snowstorm, her childhood sweetheart Shen Yanzhou, who was stigmatized by theft, suddenly returned. With scars and secrets all over his body, he broke into her long-quiet life in order to repair a pear wood counter.
Old scars reunited, misunderstandings arose, Miss Liu's entanglement, and the Su clan leader's constant pressure brought the two of them back into the caravan theft case. As the deceased husband's legacy came to light and the secret ledger surfaced, they discovered that this was not only a simple frame-up, but also involved a shocking conspiracy of collusion between officials and businessmen, and the injustice of good people.
The wood carvings hide feelings, and the brocade patterns convey meanings. They use the "combination of brocade and wood" as their blades to trace the truth amidst the light and shadow of swords, and untie their hearts in the shared life and death. But when the mystery of Shen Yanzhou's life experience, Su's father's failure to report the knowledge, and the counterattacks of the traitorous remnants of the party ensue, is this reunion that spans seven years a redemption or another disaster?
The snow falls and melts, and the grudges are over. I only wish to use the wood as a matchmaker, the brocade as a witness, and watch the fireworks to live in peace for the rest of my life.
