Chu Yufu accidentally transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon fodder concubine's daughter who wouldn't live past 60 chapters. In the original novel, her legitimate elder sister and cousin were fighting over the Young Master, while she was about to be packed up by her legitimate mother and given to a scumbag man, serving as a stepping stone for her younger brother.
Before meeting the scumbag, her legitimate mother specifically instructed, "Dress up brightly so you can catch Young Master Li's eye." The next day at the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, she appeared in bright pink, making a grand entrance, smiling in a "green tea" way: "Mother, is this outfit bright enough?"
After finally getting rid of the scumbag, her legitimate mother then married her off to a minor general that her legitimate elder sister looked down upon. Looking at the general's name, she didn't cause trouble this time—the future Great General of Zhenbei, if no one wants him, I'll take him.
Unexpectedly, on the day their horoscopes were matched, a frontier victory report reached the capital. The minor general became a Great General, and her legitimate mother snatched the red paper, saying, "Fu girl's fate is ill-starred, I'm afraid it's not suitable." She then turned around and gave the engagement to her own daughter.

Pei Yue first saw Chu Yufu at the Li family's chrysanthemum appreciation banquet. She was adorned with pearls and jade, dressed in a pink gown, completely out of place among the elegantly dressed noblewomen around her. She looked foolish and vulgar.
He saw Chu Yufu again at a pharmacy during the Lantern Festival. She had a calm expression and eloquently debated medical principles with the shop doctor: "You know so much, why don't you know that in such a situation, one needs to first assist yang and induce sweating for Ma Huang Tang to be effective?"
Standing on the second floor of the pharmacy, looking at the fair, pretty face downstairs, Captain Pei was first startled, then slightly raised an eyebrow, tapping his long fingers twice on the table. He hadn't expected this Second Miss Chu to have "two faces."
He had originally intended to reject the marriage arranged by his uncle, but suddenly felt that perhaps it wasn't impossible.
Two months later, Pei Yue returned home after a great victory in battle, and suddenly heard that his fiancée was to be changed. He twitched the corner of his mouth. What was the Chu family thinking? Did they really think he would accept just anyone?
