Shen Qiuhe, a tough and spirited girl since childhood, is tricked one day. Her uncle's family drugs her and forces her to marry a butcher who has beaten two wives to death.
How could she put up with that?!
She throws off her veil and, together with her awakened parents, demands that the family split up.
Her uncle's family doesn't want to lose their tireless workhorse. Her grandfather invokes the virtue of filial piety, while clan elders try to smooth things over, leaving them unable to break free of their shackles.
They don't want to split the family? That's just great.
From then on, the family of five is useless at everything except eating. And if anyone tries to beat them down and control them as before, they flip the table!
Faced with Second Branch's suddenly unruly behavior, Old Man Shen and the First Branch finally can't take it anymore and throw them out.
The penniless Second Branch and their grandmother happily move into a dilapidated courtyard at the foot of the mountain and start a new life.
Thanks to a treasure she unexpectedly acquires, which gives her the ability to connect to the modern world, Shen Qiuhe leads her whole family and even the entire village to prosperity. From then on, they live a comfortably well-off life that countless people envy.
At first, all she wants is for her family to live in peace and have everything go smoothly, not to become rich and powerful.
But...
Her own grandmother seems to have changed somehow.
And why is the down-on-his-luck scholar next door looking at her differently and differently still?
