She transmigrates into the body of Liu Anjun, a child bride in the Liu family. When she wakes up, the whole Liu family has perished, and only her young husband, Liu Yishu, is left. The thirteen-year-old acts like a little emperor, ordering her around and even telling her to get out. She figures that when a child misbehaves, a good spanking will set him straight.
She hunts, grows vegetables, supports the family, and raises the boy. At last, their lives improve. They have food in the house and money in their pockets, and her young husband can read and write, is strong and healthy, and has a face as beautiful as a flower...
But one day, she sees him give his favorite writing brush to a girl from their village. It suddenly dawns on her: he stopped the villagers from gossiping about the two of them because he had feelings for someone else.
She falls off a mountain while hunting and breaks her leg. Just when she needs someone to care for her, he disappears. Afraid something has happened to him, she drags her injured leg around looking for him, nearly falling off the mountain again.
Later, she sees him get out of a carriage with that same village girl and learns that he'd gone to the county town with her for fun. Once she gets home, she splits off from the family, unwilling to see the ingrate again.
After four years of living together day and night, she can't pretend she isn't hurt. But after he digs her out of the ground, his attitude changes completely. She even wonders if her young husband has been possessed. He's trying every trick in the book to get into her bed, and he wants her to have his child?!
