Synopsis
In the Ren-Song dynasty, the Yu family of Bianjing is one of a kind in the capital. Yu Heng, Minister of Revenue, holds the rank of third grade from the top and is decisive and ruthless in court. The matriarch, Xie Wanning, comes from a scholarly family. She is open-minded and forthright, and makes no secret of how fiercely she protects her own. Their eldest legitimate son, Yu Xu'an, excels at both the civil and military arts and made a name for himself as a young man. He spends his days rushing about to clean up after his younger siblings. There is no infighting or internal strife in the Yu household. The whole family stands together and faces outsiders as one. The family's ironclad rule is this: if anyone messes with a member of the Yu family, the entire household piles on to pin them down first, then brings out the law and family rules to explain things at length. Yu Xuyu, the Yu family's legitimate daughter, has transmigrated into this world. Her body is six years old, but inside she is an adult who has lived twenty-nine years. She plans to enjoy a peaceful life with such a wealthy, harmonious family. But when she is nine, her half-sister Yu Shuwan falls into a pond and wakes from a high fever with a glimpse of the future: the entire Yu family is nothing but stepping-stones for a group of visitors from another world. Even after learning of the disaster to come, the Yu family doesn't panic. Those who hold office work diligently at their posts, those in business steadily build their enterprises, and the whole clan joins together to quietly find a way forward. While noble girls in other households tread carefully, the Yu family's five young ones spend their days roughhousing and bickering at the clan school, constantly getting into trouble. At home, they can't stand one another. Outside, they present a united front. They can make all the trouble they want, because if the sky falls, their elders and older brothers will catch it for them. Life carries on in lively fashion until the eve of Yu Xuyu's coming-of-age ceremony, when an old betrothal agreement from the previous generation suddenly lands in her lap. The Shu family of Xijing sends a generous gift and asks for Yu Xuyu's hand in marriage. Everyone in the Yu family is troubled. Rumor has it that the Shu family's only son is gravely ill and bedridden most of the year. Besides, Xijing is so far away that they absolutely cannot send their daughter there. Only Yu Xuyu is deeply shaken. Shu Sunan. That name is exactly the same as the name of the childhood sweetheart and husband she lost young in her previous life. When she finally travels to Xijing and sees him with her own eyes, she discovers that it's not just his name that's the same. His features, even the mole behind his ear, are identical in every detail. A misunderstanding born of three different sets of assumptions unfolds, and the threads of fate slowly begin to unravel. The noblewomen of the capital all say that the Yu family's eldest daughter is forthright, talented, and knows how to conduct herself. She is a radiant young lady, cherished by her entire family. And Shu Sunan, who has come all the way from Xijing, has endured years of illness and crossed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, all to reach the girl destined for him. A family that fiercely protects its own, a destiny overturned, and the warmth of everyday life: a happy ending for both. Theme: A family united is life's greatest blessing. There is no need to depend on others or deliberately hide your feelings. Armed with the experiences of her previous life, the heroine grows freely in a warm, fiercely protective family and reunites with the person fate meant for her, each choosing the other. Through the warmth of ordinary life, the story celebrates a family finding happiness together and a life lived with ease, dignity, and self-respect. It breaks a tragic destiny as the whole family works together, steadily and practically rewriting their fate, with both gentleness and strength.
