Chu Lianxin is the most perfect lady from a famous family in the capital.
Dignified, gentle, knowledgeable and courteous - everyone said that whoever marries her is a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes.
No one knew that she was raising a man in a courtyard outside the city.
He was a down-and-out scholar who sold his body to bury his family. He had a cool and aloof appearance, and he had the stubbornness and pride unique to scholars in his bones.
She buried his mother lavishly for him, provided him with food and clothing, and gave him pen, ink, paper and inkstones.
He said that he owed her a life and would never owe her anything in this life.
Chu Lianxin just smiled.
