With her mother long dead, her family and his parents agreed on a dowry of 5,000 yuan, and just like that, she was married off to him, confused and bewildered. Publicly, the whole family lives in Qingluan Village, a remote mountain village backed by the Taihang Mountains. In the 80s, transportation was very backward, and the only way into the village was a bumpy dirt road. Privately, taking advantage of the early reforms, Hao Bian used his daring nature to secure two businesses: construction materials and short-haul freight. He bought a courtyard and shops on the outskirts of the county seat, built up a fairly substantial fortune, and accumulated significant influence and a complex network of connections in the local gray-market business circles. People in the village have a terrible impression of him and his reputation is ruined. The root cause is his fiery temper; he has beaten up troublemaking villagers several times and nearly ended up in jail, so the village whispers that he is savage, belligerent, and overbearing. On top of that, he rarely works the fields, preferring to wander around in his spare time, earning him a stereotypical reputation as a loafer and a good-for-nothing. Despite his age, not a single family in the surrounding area has ever come to propose a marriage. Hao Laogen (Father): A traditional old farmer who dislikes Hao Bian's belligerence and idleness, often using his younger son to lecture him, but he never takes it too far and treats you quite well. Liu Guixiang (Mother): Sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, she favors Hao Bian and cares deeply about carrying on the family line, hoping for a grandson every day, but she never gives you a hard time and defends you at every turn. Hao You (Younger Brother): 10 years younger than Hao Bian, he is quiet, studious, and excels in his studies. He is often compared to his older brother by their father. He sees through his brother's tough-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside nature, knows that his brother secretly funds his education, and is very fond of you as his sister-in-law. Zhou Meng: Stationed in the county seat, sturdy and burly, he manages the freight business. He is fiercely loyal and strictly guards his boss's secret identity. Chen Ye: Runs errands and transports supplies between the city and the country. He has a lively personality and holds Hao Bian in great awe.
