Ye Qinglan was the wealthiest woman in Jiang City until she discovered her fiancé, Chen Hao, cheating on her with another woman in her own home. The confrontation turned violent when the mistress smashed a wine glass, cutting Ye Qinglan’s neck. Her blood was absorbed by a jade pendant she had worn since childhood, triggering a mysterious transformation. Ye Qinglan found herself transported to a magical space containing a palace, fertile farmland, a spirit spring, and a limitless warehouse. Realizing the space could preserve food indefinitely and that time stood still within it, she understood she was preparing for a catastrophic event. She immediately liquidated her assets, selling her company shares and real estate for tens of billions of yuan. With the help of her best friend, Jia Ni, she embarked on an aggressive stockpiling campaign, purchasing massive quantities of food, clothing, medicine, seeds, and survival equipment from across China. She emptied supermarkets, bought entire factory inventories, and stored everything within her space.
Just as she finished her preparations, Ye Qinglan was struck by a car driven by her stepsister, Ye Bailian, who had been manipulated by their stepmother. The impact killed her in the modern world but transported her consciousness into the body of an eighteen-year-old girl named Ye Qinglan in 1972 China. This new Ye Qinglan was an educated youth facing forced relocation to the countryside. The original owner had been abused by her father, Ye Wei, and her stepmother, Wang Cuihua, who had stolen her mother’s inheritance and plotted to send her to die in the harsh Northeast. Upon waking in the hospital, Ye Qinglan discovered she still possessed her magical space. She retrieved the original owner’s hidden cash and a key to a secret cache of gold bars buried beneath her family’s old home. She sold her job position at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative for a substantial bribe and used the proceeds to buy supplies on the black market.
Ye Qinglan executed a precise revenge plan against her abusive family. She emptied their house of all valuables, leaving it looking like a burglary scene, and anonymously reported her father and stepmother for adultery, using the existence of Ye Bailian as evidence. Both were sentenced to twenty years of labor reform in the northwest. Ye Qinglan then formally severed all ties with her father, signing a legal severance agreement and transferring her household registration out of the family. She registered herself and Ye Bailian for the same countryside assignment, ensuring her stepsister would suffer alongside her. During the train journey to Hei Province, Ye Qinglan encountered Tan Siyu and her brothers, Zhu Guohua and Ran Xiangrong. She shared crucial survival advice about the extreme cold and the dangers of rural life, earning their respect. She also thwarted a theft attempt on the train, further distinguishing herself from the naive Ye Bailian.
Upon arrival at Chaoyang Commune, Ye Qinglan met Zhou Beihan, a twenty-three-year-old battalion commander on leave. Their meeting was instantaneous and mutual; Zhou Beihan was captivated by her beauty and confidence, while Ye Qinglan recognized his strength and stability as ideal for her new life. She publicly exposed Ye Bailian’s true nature and lineage, destroying the stepsister’s chances of marrying well. Ye Qinglan and Zhou Beihan agreed to date, with plans to marry in two years. She moved into the educated youth residence, a former landlord’s house, and began settling into her new reality. She utilized her space to maintain her health, wash clothes, and store her vast supplies. Zhou Beihan, deeply infatuated, helped her furnish her room and brought her game meat from the mountains. Ye Qinglan also navigated the complex social dynamics of the commune, maintaining a polite but distant relationship with her peers while focusing on her survival and her growing romance with the military officer.
The story follows Ye Qinglan as she adapts to life in the 1970s countryside, leveraging her future knowledge and magical space to thrive. She faces the challenges of manual labor, extreme weather, and rural politics while building a life with Zhou Beihan. Her primary goal shifts from mere survival to establishing security and happiness in a new era. She continues to manage her resources carefully, using her space to bypass the scarcity of the time. The narrative explores her interactions with the Zhou family, who welcome her warmly, and her ongoing rivalry with Ye Bailian, who is now powerless and resentful. Ye Qinglan’s journey is one of empowerment, as she transforms from a victim of betrayal into a confident woman who controls her own destiny, armed with wealth, magic, and a supportive partner.
