[Blurb]
Ling Wenchong receives a warning in a dream: his beloved mother, the only family he has, will be harmed by her own relatives. To save her life, he races home from the academy, only to stumble into a world of trouble thanks to Jiang Jing and Qiao Yi.
One is a brilliant scholar who hasn't yet reached adulthood. One is a clever, quick-witted young woman who supposedly "knows nothing." The third is a straightforward cousin who can't figure out what's going on. The three begin as independent, awkward individuals, but gradually grow close until they become inseparable members of a little group.
To take his mother away from the Ling family and give her a new life, Ling Wenchong actively seeks help. He hatches clever plans, takes the family to court, fights back with public opinion, and catches thieves red-handed, forcing the Ling family to split into separate branches. He also draws on knowledge from his past life to help the other two earn money and make a name for themselves. Little by little, their bright beginnings pave the way to a golden future.

Theme: Stand on your own two feet and grow stronger
Damn it, you will knock over all those stone shelves! If a man is useless, then accept his fate. Don't use the blood, tears and life of a woman to make you happy. If you don't need it, just keep it to yourself. If you need it, just give incense to the chaste and martyr women of the whole clan. Eat the incense yourself, the remnants of feudalism.
