Lei Yan, a poor village rogue, encounters Su Banxia, a seriously ill woman who has been abandoned. Defying the entire village's disapproval, he insists on marrying her. To cure Banxia's lung abscess, he ventures alone into the deep mountains, rescues a wild boar that rules the mountain, and gathers wild ginseng to pay for her medicine. He also revives his family's traditional brewing method of three rounds of steaming and three rounds of fermentation. Fourth Master Qiao and Su Hongye repeatedly scheme against the couple through counterfeiting, stealing secret recipes, and setting traps, only to suffer the consequences of their own actions. With his fine traditional liquor, Lei Yan makes a name for himself, establishes a distillery, helps the entire village prosper, and is elected chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. He rejects shady deals involving capital-diluted liquor. After Banxia recovers, the couple holds a grand wedding ceremony and has a son. They establish a school, build roads, and bring electricity to the village. The once-impoverished mountain village becomes the richest village in the land. The couple remain devoted to each other and enjoy good days together year after year.
