[Sweet, soft-hearted schemer of a lucky wife x rough on the outside, gentle and thoughtful man]
Gu Qingli, a modern practitioner of both medicine and poison, is murdered by her best friend and reborn as a timid, easily bullied farm girl.
As soon as she returns home, her engagement is broken off. From that day on, the villagers call her a fallen woman.
To make matters worse, her cheap grandmother forces her to marry an old bachelor!
The matchmaker has barely left when she comes back. It turns out Xiao Laosan, the infamous widower from their village, has come to ask for her hand.
Matchmaker: Are fallen women really this popular these days?
Gu Qingli doesn't care. A widower and a fallen woman make the perfect match. Every day, she takes her younger brother out to dig for medicinal herbs and quietly gets things done.
A fallen woman? A money-losing burden? What does any of that have to do with her?
