Modern young man Zhao Ce traveled through time and became a notoriously poor scholar. At the beginning, he met Su Cai'er, the young daughter-in-law who was "bought" by the original owner. Faced with a debt-ridden family and the villagers' rejection of Su Cai'er's abnormal eyes and lameness, Zhao Ce used modern knowledge to refine sugar with charcoal and yellow mud to start a road to wealth. He resolves property disputes and slaps doubters in the face. Su Cai'er is obedient, tenacious, and silently supportive. The two go from testing each other to relying on each other. In their chaotic daily life, they worked together to solve livelihood problems and win respect with their wisdom. They not only improved their lives, but also developed sincere feelings, creating a stable and happy life in a poor family.
