Her parents were greedy for a generous betrothal gift, and when Mu He was old enough, they sent her to be a concubine to a landowner who could be her grandfather.
Mu He begged several times to no avail. When his father was drunk, he burned down the wooden house where he had lived for more than ten years and escaped from the devil's cave at night.

Mu He followed the rich man home, only to find out that the rich man already had a family and only planned to take her as his concubine.
Mu He was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.

The corners of Mu He's lips curled up slightly, and he used the same methods as before on the young master's friends.
After many twists and turns, Mu He became a widow, guarding the family wealth with her stepson who was only a few years old.
She thought she would spend the rest of her life in peace, until the newly appointed county magistrate knocked on her door.
