Synopsis

The Gu family in Jiangcheng, a century-old family that has been a prominent family, has long been in decay. Fifteen years ago, Gu Qi and Yan Fu accidentally fell off a cliff, leaving behind nine-year-old twins Gu Yan and Gu Yan, who were raised by Gu Ci and Gu Mian. Ten years ago, four people were brutally imprisoned for seven days, and their spirits were damaged by the silent torture; five years ago, the song "Broken Bone Hairpin" came to an end, and Gu Ci, Gu Mian, and Gu Yan were deeply involved in a family conspiracy. Gu Yan disappeared again. The mastermind behind the scenes was a traitor in the Gu family who colluded with foreign enemies. The four people narrowly escaped death and have been dormant since then. After returning for five years, all the hairpins were changed, and they were all flowers of rebirth: Gu Ci changed from orchid to jacaranda and jade hairpin, Gu Mian changed from rose to red rose and yellow jade hairpin, Gu Yan changed from green gardenia to kapok white jade hairpin, and Gu Yan held a white jade pendant with dragon pattern. There is also a snowflake lotus gold jade hairpin that is inherited by the family. Three hairpins and one jade, returning with revenge. At the Gu family's birthday banquet, Gu Ci and Gu Mian made a strong appearance, and the younger generation bowed their heads to pay their respects. The head of the old family announced in public that Gu resigned as the patriarch and Gu Mian became the deputy patriarch. Gu Yan took charge of the Gu Group, holding the highest shareholding and veto power, which shocked the whole audience. Gu Yan immediately took over the throne and eliminated the family cancer. During the ancestor worship ceremony, Gu Yan and his wife Zhong Ning returned, and the three of them personally greeted their daughter Gu Jin, who was wearing the jade hairpin of the Emperor of the Bell Lily, and the family of six was finally reunited. The storm settled down, and love gradually emerged: Gu Yan and Fu Jingci stayed together for a long time, sharing a gentle fate; Gu Mian asked Qi Yuzhou three times, and their hearts were connected; Huo Zeng confessed to Gu Ci but was rejected, and later accompanied him with strong protection. The three heroines support each other, save themselves and reborn, and everyone around them is a sharp sword and a support, never overpowering them. They broke their bones into hairpins, were reborn from the fire, and used their blood as sacrifices.

Reader comments

The stories of Gu Ci, Gu Mian and Gu Yan also teach us: Accept that life is never a Mary Sue drama, there is no god coming from the sky to save you, and there is no backer who will always be there to protect you. As an ordinary person, you must learn to support yourself when you hit the bottom; when you feel wronged and sad, you must learn to heal yourself slowly; When the road ahead is confusing, you must learn to grit your teeth and move forward. There is no need to wait for someone to save you, no need to hope for someone to support you, hide your vulnerability, pick up your courage, stand firm on your own and get out of the mud on your own in the ordinary life. The most reliable person in this world is never others, but the one who never gives up, is willing to persevere, and is willing to save himself. Gu Yan is their family member who is connected by blood, and the confidence behind them; Fu Jingci, Huo Jinchen, Qi Yuzhou and Situ Chen, Li Zhiheng, and Bo Jingmo were never condescending saviors, but allies who walked side by side and partners who supported each other. The three female protagonists and the second male lead Gu Yan have been struggling to grow on their own from beginning to end, and the help of others is just the icing on the cake. Even without these blessings, in the situation of three lights and one darkness, they can still withstand all the wind and rain on their own and live as their own light.
