Mu Qingqing may be the most unfairly treated farming heroine in the village!
Other women win people over with their petite, delicate looks. But because she was born tall and straight-backed, she doesn't fit the villagers' narrow standards of beauty. From childhood on, the whole village has found ways to look down on her. Gossipy villagers constantly complain that she doesn't look like a girl, and wherever she goes, people point and whisper. She's the village's perennial scapegoat and laughingstock, an invisible nobody.
The whole village is certain she'll never get married in her life!
Then, to everyone's surprise, the Mu family takes in a live-in son-in-law whose looks, bearing, intelligence, and ambition are all off the charts!
Their new son-in-law, Xie Yujing, is handsome as an immortal and gentle and refined. He looks like a pampered young master, but in truth he's a modern science prodigy who transmigrated here by accident.
Armed with a scientific mind and modern ideas, he sees through the harsh realities of life in this poor mountain village as soon as he arrives, and feels for his little wife, who's suffered so much since childhood.
The villagers pull up stools, ready to laugh: a tall, ugly woman paired with a live-in husband? Their life is bound to be miserable!
But from then on, the whole village gets proven wrong!
Others farm through brute force, but Xie Yujing farms through logic. While others pinch pennies to get by, the couple comes up with plans, starts businesses, and boosts their income. Their motto is scientific prosperity and a steady rise to success!
He dotes on his wife and stands up for her, helping her break free of society's prejudice and guiding her step by step as she does business and earns money. She is gentle, resilient, and hardworking, healing his loneliness and bewilderment in this strange world. Their little home flourishes year after year, while their business keeps climbing.
The country girl once mocked by the whole village grows into a dazzling presence unlike any other. Her seemingly matrilocal husband ultimately rises to court, becomes the first-rank chief minister, and wields power over the whole court, protecting her and keeping her worry-free for life!
