A renowned traditional Chinese medicine master's final disciple, Jiang Wangshu is waiting to die in a hospice apartment.
When she opens her eyes, she has become a widow.
Three sniffling children crowd around her. The fields have been sold, and her house has been seized.
Jiang Wangshu: "..."
She wants to abandon this mess and die all over again.
But when the three children cling to her legs and call her Mama, her hands start to tremble.
Oh, well. She's already died once. Why should she be afraid of living?
She gathers herbs, makes medicine, buys medicine, and gives it away.
A few years later, Jiang Wangshu becomes a famous physician within a hundred li.
The apothecaries respect her, and her neighbors hold her in high regard.
She thinks her life will go on this way: being a happy widow, raising her three children, and saving enough for her old age.
Then a flood strikes, destroying every bit of the savings she'd built up over the past few years.
War follows hard on its heels, and she knows how to save lives, but not how to kill.
Just when she is at her wits' end, a kind stranger lends her a hand.
The good news: the kind stranger asks for nothing in return and works tirelessly.
The bad news: the kind stranger is the children's father!

Chen Feng returns home from the battlefield to find devastation everywhere and his wife and children missing.
Heartbroken and despairing, he throws himself into the rescue efforts.
Never did he expect that the woman he casually rescued would turn out to be his wife!
The elegant young man who is never without a book is his eldest son?
The little girl who handles medicinal herbs with practiced ease is his daughter, A Jing?
When did his daughter learn such impressive medical skills?
And the young lad in the courtyard, performing a set of punches with fierce vigor and displaying considerable martial skill... is he really his youngest son, who used to drool and get chased by chickens whenever he chased them?
His wife is completely different from the woman she was when he left, in every way except her appearance. She shines brilliantly.
Like a lone wolf lurking in the shadows, he quietly watches over his wife and children, never daring to overstep.
He is simply grateful that this time, he can protect them.
An optimistic heroine who takes life as it comes x a hero who rises from humble beginnings

The dynasty is fictional, so please don't nitpick the history. There are many original elements, so please don't read too much into them.
Theme: Wherever you are, live your life to the fullest.
The original owner and her husband have such a good relationship. Will he not find that his wife has changed when he comes back later? Or won't it feel disgusting to fall in love with the heroine like this?
A hundred taels for a house in the village? This price can buy a house in the ancient capital 😂
What a sudden plot. The last chapter was about fighting for the throne, and the next chapter is about the new emperor.
Tied!!! Looking forward to the follow-up!!!
It's a super useless piece of writing. He didn't take revenge when his house was robbed, he didn't take revenge when his daughter was forcibly sold, and the heroine even robbed her of her loving husband.
A useless piece of writing, he didn't take revenge when his house was robbed, he didn't take revenge when his daughter was forcibly sold, and the heroine even robbed her husband.
Not having revenge is such a waste. The house was robbed, the daughter was almost robbed and sold, the heroine was like a piece of shit, a loser
I believe in Asan religion. Now when I think of Asan holding shit with one hand and eating shit-like paste with the other hand, even though Buddhism originated in Nepal, those Buddhas all have Asan faces.
It's tied, well, it looks great!
