Lin Wan, a modern office worker, spends years working late nights and overtime, struggling through a life of endless toil and suppressed frustration. Tragically, she dies in an accident. When she opens her eyes again, she has been reborn in an impoverished mountain village in ancient times, inhabiting the body of a poor young girl who shares her name. The original Lin Wan died while trying to save her younger sister from drowning, leaving behind a frail grandmother, a seven-year-old sister, and an adopted older brother as their only companion. Their family is desperately poor. Having endured so much hardship in her previous life, Lin Wan is grateful for this second chance. Not only has she escaped the exhausting rat race and endless self-inflicted stress, but her longstanding eye condition has also completely healed. Determined to make the most of her new life, she draws on her modern knowledge and cooking skills, works hard, protects her family, and strives to escape poverty and build a thriving new life.
