Synopsis

Action star Chi Yue, due to a sudden celestial phenomenon, accidentally time-travels to ancient times. She becomes a young widow in the town of Xikong, burdened with three young stepchildren. Chi Yue simultaneously builds a closer relationship with the children while punishing the malicious relatives in the Li family mansion who mistreat them. Leveraging her modern advantages, Chi Yue processes wild game obtained from hunting into braised delicacies, brews fragrant wine, and establishes her own winery. Through activities like taste tests and discounts, she successfully manages her winery, earning enough to provide the children with a worry-free life and acquire a new house.

As she spends more time with the three children, Chi Yue becomes more devoted. She teaches the eldest, Li Ziqiang, hunting techniques and encourages the second daughter, Li Zichen, to read. The three children gradually develop a dependence on their stepmother. In the midst of facing and overcoming various crises, Chi Yue gradually discovers that the mastermind behind everything seems to be pointing to Li Yee, the third daughter of the elderly Mrs. Li. Finally, with the cooperation of the three adorable children, Chi Yue uncovers the truth behind the deaths of the children's parents and ensures that the wrongdoers receive the punishment they deserve.
