In the spring of the seventeenth year of Yongchang, Su Jinyu, an orphan from a mountain village in southern Anhui Province, became a "fake" for marriage because she had a face that was exactly the same as Shen Qingci, the legitimate daughter of a Jiangnan weaver. With a little cinnabar between her brows, she stepped into the mystery of the Shen Mansion. The throbbing of the broken jade, the ink marks on the family tree, and the butler's late-night prying eyes all showed that under the identity of the stand-in, the truth about the tampered bloodline was hidden.
When Shen Qingci, who was seriously injured, came back from breaking the window, the word "for" was reflected on the tattoo on his chest, and the abandonment and murder case of twin girls twenty years ago came to light. The ambition of the concubine's eldest son, the forbearance of the loving mother, and the secret investigation of the teacher all formed a web of intrigue. Su Jinyu held the needle as a blade and overturned the situation in the Shen family with a double-sided embroidery - the front showed family reunion, and the back showed bloody injustice.
From the fake to the real person, from the stand-in to the one in charge, she tore through the shackles of identity within the shackles of patriarchal clan, and embroidered the new life of female awakening in the warp and weft of the embroidery thread.
