In her previous life, the bookshop burned down, Granny died horribly, Stepmother was sold, Shitou disappeared, and Su Yan died full of hatred!
Reborn three years earlier, with the dilapidated bookshop still standing and her loved ones still together, he clenched his fists. In this life, he would protect the warm courtyard and keep everyone safe!
When troublemakers tried to sabotage the embroidery shop's opening, everyone joined forces, armed with scissors and shuttles, forming an unbreakable wall. Granny outwitted them with a contract, while Stepmother's embroidered handkerchiefs and brocades amazed the whole city.
Life was poor and hard to bear? He made a living painting fans, while she earned money embroidering handkerchiefs. A pot of hot porridge warmed them through the cold night, as a group of people with bitter lives banded together and made their humble home feel like a place of hearth and home.
With disaster looming and nowhere to run, he had already studied the heavens and prepared carts and horses. He led the villagers through the crisis. From a handful of people helping one another to a hundred households making a living, they had no golden finger, only ordinary people united in purpose, hacking their way through the brambles to reach the capital!
There are no earthshaking power struggles, only bonds forged through life and death. There are no lone heroes, only a group of ordinary people fighting their way to a better life!
"The warm courtyard is our roots, and the people are our family. When we pull together, there's no hurdle we can't overcome!"
