Xue Yunsu's previous life was a tragedy woven from hardship. Born into poverty, she relied on an extraordinary gift for learning to secretly master the art of embroidery. With a silver needle in her fingers, she could bring anything to life, and she used nothing but thread to keep her whole family afloat. Through a twist of fate, she married Yang Lin, a soldier discharged after being wounded. She thought she had found someone to weather life's storms with, but after they fled famine to a mountain village in Jingzhou, she fell into hell. The villagers ostracized her and made life difficult, while her husband Yang Lin sank into despair because of his injured leg. He grew lazy and resentful, pushing the entire burden of the family onto her. She embroidered day and night to earn food, sewing and laboring until her health and beauty were spent. At last, she died bitterly amid poverty and illness, with one wish on her deathbed: if she had another life, she would never marry Yang Lin again. She wanted only to protect her family through her own efforts and find a love built on sincerity.
Reborn one day on the eve of her wedding, she still had her silver needle, but now she had a plan. This time, she would no longer waste herself on someone unworthy. She would embroider not only a fortune, but also a love in which both hearts reached for the other.
