Synopsis:
When Qu Qingjiang's father was bedridden, his uncles and brothers brought their own children to him, asking him to choose one as his heir. Qu's father pointed to Zhao Changxia outside the crowd and said, "I want him to be my Qu family's son-in-law."
The uncles said Zhao Changxia was an outsider.
The brothers said Zhao Changxia was a servant.
Zhao Changxia thought, "I am a woman."
Qu Qingjiang said, "I don't care about any of that."
Zhao Changxia thought she was talking about status, but later realized she didn't even care about gender.
Zhao Changxia found herself in a different world, nearly arrested due to lack of identification. Fortunately, Qu Qingjiang picked her up to do some farm work and make a living.
Unexpectedly, this arrangement led her to become Qu's son-in-law. The Qu family members, who had hoped for a cut-off, kept a close watch on Qu Qingjiang and Zhao Changxia, waiting for them to be driven out of the village.
Yet, as the peach blossoms by the village edge turned white over and over, they never saw the couple's downfall. Instead, they watched as their fields expanded, their house grew larger, their social circles broadened, and their reputation soared to heights they could not reach.
