Shen Qinghe was originally the daughter of a scholarly family in Gusu. She loved reading and could write poetry. She originally thought her life would be pure and stable, but after a bet, her father sent her to the deep residence of the Lu family. Mr. Lu was obsessed with her youth and beauty, but the first time Mrs. Lu saw her, she seemed to see herself back then. She is gentle and dignified. She often wears a moon-white cheongsam, but her smile never reaches her eyes.
In an old dream deep in the house, Shen Qinghe met Lu Xingzhou, the young master of the Lu family who had returned from studying abroad. He yearns for free love, but is cowardly and shrinks back. Later, the eldest wife bought her a way out with an ancestral jade bracelet. On the day Shen Qinghe escaped from Suzhou, he knelt in the direction of Lu Zhai and said goodbye to an old dream that had trapped countless women.
