Based on Mo Shubai's novel of the same name, the series tells the story of Liu Yuru, the daughter of a cloth merchant who suffered a lot as a child, and Gu Jiusi, a wealthy and carefree young master; these two people with different personalities get stuck in a mismatched marriage, and their relationship develops from conflict to mutual support and understanding.[2]
Liu Yuru, the legitimate eldest daughter of a cloth merchant in Yangzhou, had suffered for years under the thumb of her father's concubine. Growing up, she learned to be cautious and gentle at all times, always hiding her strong personality. Unexpectedly, she is forced to marry Gu Jiusi, the only son of the wealthiest family in Jiangnan who is known for his pleasure seeking and carefree lifestyle.[2]
The drama is set in ancient China; although it is not based on real history, it draws inspiration from the Tang and Song dynasties.[2]
