Qin Huiyin transmigrated into a book. Her mother was a pretty widow who married three times, a 'flower' of the village. When her mother married for the second time, Qin Huiyin gained a villainous stepbrother. When her mother married for the third time, the male lead became her stepbrother, and she also gained a pair of cannon fodder stepsister and stepbrother who were destined to die young. Her mother, as cannon fodder, bounced around in front of the villain and male lead every day, unaware that those two had already planned hundreds of ways for her to die.
To survive, Qin Huiyin decided that she must curry favor with both the male lead and the villain. With a two-pronged approach, she might just be able to latch onto a truly powerful patron. However, raising the grassroots villain and the grassroots male lead proved to be incredibly challenging; it almost killed her to nurture them.
Later, looking at the now plump and healthy villain, male lead, and her stepsister and stepbrother who were originally fated to die young, Qin Huiyin prepared to retire successfully, her good deeds hidden. As the richest woman under heaven, she wanted to find a handsome young man from ancient times to be her live-in husband, thus reaching the pinnacle of her life. However... all the matchmakers in the capital closed their doors to her. Darn it! She had to throw money at the problem, absolutely throw money! But then, a man quietly slipped into her room in the middle of the night, unbuttoned his clothes, and asked, "Is just me not enough as a live-in husband?"
