After waking up, Shen Wantang, a genius military surgeon, finds herself inside a novel set in a bygone era.
She’s the fake heiress who stole someone else’s place, and now the real heiress has schemed against her, forcing her to take her place as the bride of Huo Lengyuan, the notoriously cruel “Living Yama” of the military region in the Northwest, rumored to bring death to his wives?
Faced with exploitation by her awful family, Shen Wantang lets out a cold laugh, decisively scoops up the family’s nationwide grain and fabric coupons, grabs her green canvas bag, and boards a westbound train to join the army!
Her awful relatives laugh that she’s going off to eat sand? The real heiress expects her to become a widow?
But in the Northwest military compound, Shen Wantang rides a classic black bicycle in her poplin dress, and her braised pork, fit for a state-run restaurant, makes the neighbor’s children drool every day!
With her astonishing medical skills, she becomes the pride of the military clinic, and helps the army wives make a fortune trading medicinal herbs!
And what about that cold, fearsome Living Yama?
By day, he’s merciless on the training ground. But at night, with red-rimmed eyes, he pins her against the kang and pleads in a hoarse voice, “Wife, I’ll give you my life and my heart. Please pay me some attention…”
No golden finger: she makes a name for herself in the ration-coupon era through real skill!
See how this beautiful young military doctor turns the tables against the odds, falls in love after marriage, and wins the devoted affection of a formidable military man!
