    A series of knocks sounded at the door, followed by Song Daye's voice coming through the door, "Jinhe, are you awake?" His daughter had arrived home late the previous day, and Song Daye, doting on her, hadn't knocked to wake her until dawn. According to their custom, a bride-to-be should start getting ready before daybreak. Fortunately, it was just the two of them, father and daughter, and he had no siblings, so he could do whatever made him comfortable. He estimated the wedding procession would depart around this time before waking his daughter. Inside the room was Song Muqing—no, from now on, she was Song Jinhe. Hearing her father's words, Song Jinhe quickly replied, "Dad, I'm awake. Is something wrong?" "Something your mother left you, Dad's bringing you." Song Daye stood outside, holding something wrapped in coarse blue cloth, shaped like a wooden box, his eyes filled with nostalgia. This was a treasured keepsake left to his daughter by Xiao Ci, prepared since Jinhe's birth. She used to say that her daughter's birth was unlucky; in the past, she would have received a grand wedding procession. Now, she prepares whatever little she can for her daughter.

    A high-quality period drama with good writing and style. The female lead is career-oriented, not a saint, and has a clear head. The male lead is a doting husband. It's a story of a rough military officer and a pampered young woman. The plot is fast-paced and full of everyday family life.
