Modern woman Jiang Xia stayed up late reading a period novel, and upon waking up, transmigrated into the book as a tragic cannon-fodder ex-wife with a rough fate. The original owner was bent on divorcing after marriage, causing numerous turmoils and ultimately meeting a miserable end. After transmigrating, Jiang Xia decided to rewrite her destiny and stop repeating the tragedy. She stayed in a seaside fishing village in the 1980s, got along and adapted with her husband Zhou Chenglei, and they separated from the family to move into an old house to live. Relying on her own knowledge and mind, she learned to go out to sea to work, researched beachcombing skills, and seized the era's opportunities to make a diligent living. The two joined hands to cope with neighborhood conflicts and trials of storms, slowly understanding each other in everyday fireworks, fighting side by side, and striving hard with their own hands.
