Where there is food, there is life.

Where there are music, chess, calligraphy, and painting—poetry and song—there is joy.

With a bit of wealth and fame, there is grandeur and ambition.

Gu Zhengyan transmigrated into an ancient world and, by a stroke of luck, won first place in a poetry competition and ended up marrying the proud and talented daughter of a marquis.

But their marriage enraged the Marquis so much that he kicked them both out.

Now back in his impoverished hometown with his new wife, Gu Zhengyan was feeling utterly defeated—until he realized his wife wasn’t like any ancient woman he’d imagined. She was incredibly talented... and incredibly proud.

Luo Shuyao:

“Gu Zhengyan! Don’t interrupt me while I’m talking! You must answer my question—no brushing it off, no pretending, no impatience...!”

Gu Zhengyan:

“…What do I do? I’m the one who transmigrated, and even I can barely keep it together…”

Note: The story begins with slice-of-life romance and gradually develops into action and intrigue.
