Bringing his personal supplies, he goes to the countryside to make a living, establishing himself through his skills and fortuitously rescuing a scholar in distress. Dealing with various rural disputes and entanglements, he gets to know the brigade captain's family and meets the kind-hearted Yufang. Together, they dispel a forced marriage storm to set their engagement, fend off others' scheming, build up family property, and gain animal companions. The original Xiao family reaps what they sow, and having shaken off past sorrows, he is about to marry Yufang and head toward his own happy life.
