[One-on-one romance, devoted couple, personal growth, slow burn, family life]
When Ye Wan opens her eyes, she has become a lonely orphan in the 1970s.
Both her parents died in service. Her uncle and aunt seized the compensation and subsidies, worked her like a servant, and bullied and berated her. Now they want to marry her off to the first man who’ll pay a bride price!
Everyone thinks this is all life has in store for her.
But no one knows
The frail little body now houses a young fox with awakened intelligence!
She has not only a pocket dimension, but also a spiritual spring, medicinal fields, and medical texts…
Just as Ye Wan flees in panic, Shen Yan arrives.
A young battalion commander, upright and from a military family, he sternly puts the Ye family in their place.
One marriage contract, and he pulls her straight out of the mud!
Everyone thinks she’s relying on a man to turn her life around.
Only later do they discover
She knows medicine, can save lives, and treats people with sincerity.
She uses her pocket dimension to study medicine and help others, and earns her place in the military compound through her own abilities.
The people she saves remember her, those she has helped stand up for her, and even the most exacting elders can’t help but cherish her.
Once, everyone pitied her for being so small and frail.
Later, they all say, “Nobody should mess with the little wife of Battalion Commander Shen. Everyone who sees her wants to protect her!”
And later still,
one scientific breakthrough after another bears her name.
From a martyr’s orphan, worn down by hardship, she rises step by step to become the brightest star of her era.
And the best thing Shen Yan ever did in his life
was keep that little girl, standing in the mud with eyes that shone so brilliantly, safely by his side.
