In the third year of Longqing's reign, the beautiful mansion of the Wen family in Linqing hides the coldest people's hearts.
The mistress, Shen Yuru, rose from being a charming girl in the south of the Yangtze River to becoming the mistress of a household, guarding such a large business and running every step of the way.
The younger brother Wen Jingming is greedy for romance, keeps orphan girls secretly, and secretly covets family property. He only cares about the love of his children and does not care about the foundation of the family.
Mr. Chen, the accountant, has been keeping the account books for forty-three years. He has seen through the affairs of the house and understands that firewood, rice, and money are the backbone of the family.
One courtyard is prosperous, but two places are scheming. The west wing hides tenderness and affection, and the main hall holds the power of the city.
Everyone in the world sees love affairs, only the ledger records people's hearts. After all, this beautiful house is half prosperous and half cool.
