Su Wanning, the daughter of a Confucian businessman from the south of the Yangtze River, was the best in weaving patterns in Gusu. She was originally in love with her childhood sweetheart Wen Jingran, the young master of the Wen family, and they only wanted a good match.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened. His adoptive father, Su Boyuan, was framed and charged with embezzling money and possessing prohibited items. He was imprisoned and the Su family collapsed overnight. In the past, Qingmei turned around and married Ding Wanrou, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs.
At the night banquet at the Hou Mansion, a glass of fruit wine that had been secretly secretly made her confused and stumbled into the arms of Xiao Jinyan, the Marquis of Dingbei. Coincidentally, the secret weaving pattern of the Hou Mansion was stolen, and she became the secret craftsman in everyone's mouth, and she could not defend herself.
In order to rescue her adoptive father from prison, she gritted her teeth and signed the deed of dependence, went to the weaving workshop of the Marquis Mansion, and then stepped into the whirlpool of a wealthy family's house.
Mu Lingxi, a cousin who lives in the Hou's Mansion, makes things difficult for her by relying on old grudges. Liu Cui'e, a female weaving shop craftswoman, is jealous of her skills and secretly plots against her. The noble ladies from the aristocratic family take turns mocking her for her poor family and low life, and the scumbag men and bitches frequently come to her and try to put her down.
Everyone is afraid of Ding Beihou Xiao Jinyan - he holds the military power of the capital and is also in charge of business, execution and prison. He has a cold face and a cold heart, and is decisive in killing. He is a figure who even the royal family must show courtesy to.
No one knew that this unkind Marquis would stand up to protect her when she was publicly humiliated, would stay in front of her bed all night when she was caught in the rain and had a high fever, would overturn the verdict for her despite the criticism of the whole government, and would devote all the tenderness and preference he had hidden for half his life to her alone.
From the initial tit-for-tat confrontation and mutual suspicion, to the later understanding and mutual understanding, they fell deeper and deeper step by step.
She was originally an orphan from a poor family, but accidentally entered a wealthy family's house. She only wanted to seek peace and clear her father's wrong, but she accidentally stole the heart of the cold-faced marquis.
