Su Wan, a modern social animal, travels to the Jing Dynasty, which coincides with a great famine that has not happened in a century.
Deaths from starvation are everywhere, refugees are everywhere, every household is chewing tree bark and eating grass roots, and everyone is struggling on the edge of death.
Fortunately, she had a storage space with her, which was filled with rice, flour, grains and oils, meat and dry goods, medicines and clothing.
On the night when the mountain was blocked by heavy snow, Su Wan found Shen Yan, a young man who was covered in injuries and on the verge of freezing to death in a ruined temple.
At that time, he was a military general from an aristocratic family who was in trouble and framed. He was proud and scarred, and his future was dim. He was buried in the wilderness with only one breath left.
Others were afraid to avoid him, but Su Wan secretly picked him up and brought him back to the dilapidated courtyard.
Close the door, feed them fine rice and white noodles quietly, and take good care of them with warm water and medicine for wounds.
To the outside world, he is only said to be a distant and sick relative whom he picked up.
In a time of famine and chaos, food was more valuable than life. Su Wan carefully protected her own space, avoiding murderers and being wary of greedy neighbors, while quietly raising the general in trouble.
Shen Yan thought he was going to die, but was saved by a frail woman.
During the hard years of cold and hunger, she gave him a hot meal and a place to stay.
He saw her carefully hiding food, saw her being cold to the outside but soft at heart, and saw her guarding a small eaves in troubled times.
Hidden in trouble, he suppressed all his sharpness to protect her.
When the storm subsided and the battlefield resumed, the young man from the past returned to the court wearing armor and wielding power.
The general with a heavy army returned through the wind and snow, and he just wanted to pamper the girl who had protected him into the most stable person in the world.
"During the famine years, you gave me the grace to survive. For the rest of my life, I will only protect you across the mountains and rivers."
