His gambling-addicted father sells Luo Jin to a remote mountain village,
where he becomes the wife of the Mo family's second son.
The second son is handsome, aloof, scholarly, and proud,
and filthy Luo Jin is not to his taste.
They agree that once the debt is paid, Luo Jin will be set free.
The second son is cold-hearted, calculating, and shrewd, all sweetness on the surface and darkness underneath.
How could his delicate, sweet little wife possibly outwit him?
He refuses to honor their agreement to set Luo Jin free once the debt is repaid.
At last, one day, Luo Jin leaves the mountain village
and takes a breath of fresh air,
only to walk straight into the gilded cage the second son has prepared for him.
(This story is set in ancient times, when the trade of human beings was legal. This would absolutely not be acceptable in modern society. Also, the heroine in this story is not bought or sold. Enjoy reading!)
