Luo Wangshu, a modern science student, dies in a car accident orchestrated by enemies he made during his previous life. He awakens in a new world, inhabiting the body of a man from the Mingyue Kingdom who was being transported as a tribute of child-bearing men to the Dayuan Empire. The transport carriage is ambushed, and the original body is stabbed and thrown off a cliff. Luo Wangshu survives the fall, discovering he has retained a spatial ability from his past life and possesses pale golden eyes, a mark of his Mingyue heritage. Initially believing himself to be an exile or criminal due to the discrimination he faces, he is found by a local villager and sold at a market.
Mo Li, a physically imposing but mentally simple man, purchases Luo Wangshu for twenty copper coins, insisting he is his wife. Mo Li lives with his adoptive father, Mo Fang, a skilled herbalist and doctor in a remote mountain village. Luo Wangshu is terrified by the prospect of being sold into a brothel or eaten, but Mo Li’s genuine, childlike affection and protective nature gradually ease his fears. Despite the language barrier and cultural differences, Luo Wangshu begins to adapt to his new life, learning to communicate through writing and observing the local customs. He is assigned domestic duties, though his lack of practical farming knowledge makes him seem useless to Mo Fang, who initially views him as a burden.
The dynamic shifts when Luo Wangshu defends himself against Zhao Dayuan, a local bully who harasses his family. Mo Li violently protects Luo Wangshu, revealing his hidden strength and fierce loyalty. Luo Wangshu also forms a bond with Li Miaomiao, a young neighbor girl, finding a sense of belonging he never had in his previous life. He learns that Mo Li was rescued from the mountains as a child after a wolf attack, which caused his head injury and cognitive delays. Mo Fang, despite his gruff exterior, cares deeply for both of them, treating Luo Wangshu as family and teaching him about the world.
As winter approaches, the family faces external threats. Zhao Dayuan, seeking revenge and financial gain, accuses Mo Fang of murdering his pregnant wife, who died after being beaten by him. Mo Fang refuses to pay extortion money, leading to a confrontation that threatens to bring legal trouble upon the family. Luo Wangshu supports Mo Fang emotionally, sharing stories of his past life to comfort the old man. The chapter ends with the family united against the bully, highlighting Luo Wangshu’s transition from a fearful exile to an integrated member of the household, finding peace and purpose in his new existence despite the looming conflict.
