Healing and redemption | A slow and steady romance | Farming and building a livelihood
Handsome, rugged hunter x pretty girl who can speak to birds
Born into the Yin family, Yin Qing never had enough to eat or warm clothes to wear. Her father didn't care for her, and her mother didn't love her. Because she had a lovely face almost identical to her mother's, her cruel stepmother made her life miserable.
When she was seventeen, her father “sold” her to the poor hunter Zhou Xianghe as his wife for three taels of silver.
She thought it would be the start of yet another unhappy life, but instead she found herself living in a home full of sweetness.
A cotton quilt, new hemp clothes, bowls of white rice porridge, and the occasional egg.
A warm bed on winter nights, and wash water prepared in advance. Little by little, Yin Qing's rugged husband warmed her heart. Always cautious by nature, she finally let a little secret slip
She could speak to birds.
She wasn't insulting anyone. She really could.
From then on, whenever Zhou Xianghe went up the mountain, he had a little shadow at his side.
“The oriole says there's a group of rabbits grazing to the west.”
“The great tit says there's a wolf to the north. Don't go that way.”
“It's going to rain. Let's hurry down the mountain... Really, the magpie came over just now to tell me.”

The people of Lotus Village noticed something. Ever since the new bride entered the Zhou household, their lives had been getting better and better.
Everyone said Yin Qing was a lucky wife, born with the kind of fate that brought her husband wealth and good fortune.
But only she knew that if the man who married her hadn't been the kind and dependable Zhou Xianghe, the story might have been very different.
