Shen Zhaozhao spent three years as a widow, struggling to keep the Gu family business alive, only to be targeted by greedy relatives—they wanted to seize her dowry shops and force her to marry a 60-year-old rich merchant for good luck. Just as she clutched her husband Gu Yanzhi’s old silver bracelet and stood at the entrance of the Gu family ancestral hall, ready to burn her suicide note, the sound of armor dragging suddenly came from outside the courtyard: black iron boots stained with old blood crossed the threshold, and Gu Yanzhi, who “died in battle” three years ago, was holding her favorite jujube osmanthus cake, calling her “Zhaozhao” with red eyes. It turned out he faked his death to investigate court traitors, hiding in the alley every night to watch her reckoning by lamplight. Now that the traitors were eliminated, he rode three days and three nights to come back. Facing his stunned wife, Gu Yanzhi knelt on one knee: “I used to protect the world, now I only protect you.” Just as the relatives were about to cause trouble, they were pinned to the ground by his soldiers behind him—this time, he would turn all the missed mornings and evenings into sweetness for her.
