On this day, two young ladies got married at the same time in Yangzhou City. One was Du Bingyan (played by Li Lin), the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the city, and the other was Li Yuhu (played by Huang Yi), the daughter of a martial arts master in the city. Both young ladies have seemingly happy marriages to outsiders. Bingyan will marry Qi Tianlei (played by Nie Yuan), the third son of Qi Mansion, a giant businessman in Liuzhou, while Yuhu will marry General Yuan Buqu (played by Shi Xiaohong), an important minister of the dynasty. But only they know the bitterness.
