A modern woman accidentally travels through time, becoming an orphaned girl despised in her village. Casually betrothed by her family to a hunter, she is then jilted and abandoned in the bitter winter. Reining in her sharp edges, she makes a living relying on her extraordinary mind and exquisite culinary skills, setting up a roadside stall to make various delicacies, slowly accumulating family property, and renovating her dilapidated courtyard. Dealing with neighbors' schemes and others' harassment, she fights back calmly to protect her small home. When her husband is falsely accused, she carries the burden of livelihood despite her pregnancy, running everywhere to seek evidence to help clear his grievances. Working together, the two build their small business into a well-known trading firm, counterattacking to become a deeply respected matriarch and master of the house, reaping a mutual fulfillment in love.
