On the night when the village was closed by heavy snow, Su Qianqian, whose parents had died, was tied to a sedan chair by her tribe members and asked to exchange her for twenty taels of betrothal silver. Xie Fan, her childhood sweetheart who had been missing for five years, returned from the snow, stopped the sedan chair in public, and wrote a divorce letter with her. With no natal family and no dowry, the two of them only guarded three acres of gravel-strewn wasteland. They started by picking up rocks to build ridges and raising seedlings from springs. They boiled sweet grass into sugar, sent mushrooms to restaurants, started waterwheels, and allowed new crops to grow in dry fields that were once unpopular.
Drought, frost, locust swarms, and grain tyrants came one after another, but Su Qianqian never relied on charity to change people's hearts. She opened accounts, established rural warehouses, and led ten villages to borrow seeds and cultivate crops together. She also confirmed her determination that had not changed in ten years with Xie Fan through adventures side by side. Her farm grew farther and farther, and her fine seeds traveled thousands of miles, finally turning her from an orphan who was forced to marry into a world-famous richest man.
However, a nine-feather phoenix jade hidden in her infancy involved her in an old royal case that had been sealed for many years. Faced with constant questioning about her life experience, dignitaries, and people from the Golden Palace, Su Qianqian did not rush to compete for the phoenix crown. Instead, she first asked how many disaster-stricken fields there were, where the food relief was, and why the people could afford taxes but couldn't afford to eat. Xie Fan also took the initiative to hand over the military talisman, not to let love become a reason for her to be controlled by others.
From three acres of wasteland to the granary of the people, from Yunxi Village to the Kyushu court, she used seeds, account books and rules that could be checked to change the world; he would not be a vassal behind her, nor would he choose for her in the name of guardian, he would only walk side by side with her. When the former peasant girl put on the phoenix crown, and when the iron-blooded general became her only husband, they still remembered the original agreement: if there was a mouthful of food, they would share half of it with each other; if there was a difficult road to walk, they would walk together to the end.
