Her sensible parents-in-law and younger siblings stand firmly by her side, and the whole family moves to the county town to establish an independent household. With her modern knowledge and resilient mindset, she improves farm tools, founds printing, assists in solving cases, and her brother-in-law strives in the imperial examinations. Guarding one another through wind and rain, the family finally steps into a new life of self-reliance, strength, and warm upward growth.
