Chen Wuji, a modern miracle doctor, traveled back in time to the famine years and became a silly little hunter who depended on his widowed sister-in-law Huo Sanniang. He faced multiple crises such as the family's lack of food, the government's demand for taxes, and the fact that his widowed sister-in-law was coveted. In order to solve the survival crisis, Chen Wuji pretended to be a fool and went into the mountains to hunt to satisfy his needs. With modern medical skills and the help of his elders, he sold captured birds, animals and precious medicinal materials. In the end, he married a widower and took Shen Youwei, who was forced to marry by the government, as his concubine. He fought off the refugees and was rewarded by the county government. He gradually established prestige in the village and eventually led his wife and concubines to live a prosperous life and became the head of the Chen family.
