Married for twenty years, Jingniang, who most detested her husband taking concubines, personally chose a young and helpless girl. Gu Chengye thought she had finally become sensible; no one knew that she only wanted to close the bedroom door and sleep peacefully. Until Su Wan'er was sent into the Gu residence for ten taels of silver, Jingniang saw in her panic herself of twenty years ago, who was at the mercy of others. She originally wanted to find someone to suffer in her place, but time and again she stood in front of Wan'er, returning the choice to her. The storms of the deep courtyard followed one after another, and two women who should have vied for favor decided to stand together. But when Jingniang, oppressed for twenty years, finally learned to live for herself, would Gu Chengye, arrogant for half a lifetime, still have time to understand what she truly wanted?
