A pampered daughter of power, Grace once believed in her father's love. But in the cruel twist of fate, it was all part of his grand betrayal. Reborn, she’s rewriting her story—and this time, the rules are different.

After completing five thousand quick transmigration missions, Gu Nuannuan finally returned to her original first life with the "Rebirth Pill" rewarded by the system. Waking up, she was no longer the Gu family's eldest daughter who was bullied by everyone. Facing the "gift" sent by her hypocritical father, Gu Wu, she saw through it at a glance as the leftover defective product chosen by her half-sister Gu Xiangyan, and immediately ordered her maid to throw it away. Facing her biased grandmother, she refused morning and evening greetings, determined not to curry favor anymore. She recalled the truth of her father killing his wife and daughter for power in her previous life, and vowed to protect her mother, Su Minlan, and take her away from the Gu Manor in this life. As soon as she went out, she ran into her "green tea" half-sister Gu Xiangyan, who was pretending to be innocent.

The episode opens with concubine's daughter Gu Xiangyan showing off the imperial delicacies sent by her maternal grandmother to the legitimate daughter Gu Nuannuan, and mocking the Gu family's low official rank. Gu Nuannuan retorts, using her noble status as the Prime Minister's granddaughter to suppress Gu Xiangyan's arrogance. Afterwards, Gu Nuannuan's inner monologue reveals her reborn identity and her vow to use her family's advantage for revenge. Gu Xiangyan leaves in anger due to her inferior background. At the end of the episode, Gu Nuannuan sees her mother Su Minlan, who is still alive, and loses control of her emotions, crying uncontrollably and hugging her mother tightly, showcasing the immense joy and sorrow of regaining what was lost after her rebirth.

This episode follows Gu Nuannuan, the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, who has been reborn. To change the fate of her mother's humiliation and her own tragic death in her past life, she begins to feign being a wronged child in front of her mother, Su Minlan, attempting to drive a wedge between her mother and father, Gu Wu. Gu Nuannuan deliberately expresses her dislike for her grandmother and probes whether her mother would be willing to return to her maiden home (the Prime Minister's mansion), only to discover that her mother still harbors hopes for her father. At this moment, Granny Fang, a wicked servant by the grandmother's side, arrogantly arrives to summon them. Gu Nuannuan, using her identity as a child, publicly points out Granny Fang's ostentatious and excessive attire and dismisses her like a beggar by gifting her imperial pastries, severely humiliating the wicked servant. This act serves to establish her authority and protect her mother.

This episode's plot revolves around the protagonist Gu Nuannuan's "awakening" and counterattack. Gu Nuannuan stops pretending to be foolish and confesses to her mother, Su Minlan, that she had been enduring humiliation to gain the Gu family's favor. However, she now realizes that no matter how hard she tries, she cannot change their prejudice, and decides to rely on her mother's powerful maternal family (the Su family) as her support. The mother and daughter go to pay their respects to Old Madam Gu, and are verbally taunted by her for being late. Upon entering the room, Gu Nuannuan faces her stepsister, Gu Xiangyan, who is crying and feigning pity. Gu Nuannuan, no longer timid, publicly exposes Gu Xiangyan's hypocrisy, revealing that each time she cries, it's to demand her expensive possessions (hairpins, wolf-hair brushes, and fabrics), leaving Gu Xiangyan's false facade exposed.

This episode focuses on the mansion infighting between Gu Nuan Nuan (after reincarnation), the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, and her biased grandmother and stepsister, Gu Xiang Yan. Facing groundless accusations from her grandmother, Gu Nuan Nuan feigns innocence and meekness on the surface, but her words are sharp, using retreat to advance. She first pretends to offer tea to her grandmother and "accidentally" spills water, interrupting the grandmother's pressure. Then, she cleverly twists her stepsister's "seizing" of her belongings into "safekeeping for her elder sister" by leveraging the moral high ground of "elder sister is like a mother." Finally, Gu Nuan Nuan publicly orders her maid not only to move back her own belongings but also to forcibly clear out the valuable items in her stepsister's courtyard under the guise of "safekeeping," successfully executing a satisfying counterattack (revenge).

This episode focuses on the Gu family's internal power struggle. Old Mrs. Gu attempts to morally coerce Gu Nuannuan, invoking the principle of an elder sister being like a mother, urging her to yield to her stepsister, Gu Xiangyan. The reborn Gu Nuannuan (in her childhood form) turns the tables, using her grandmother's own words to reclaim the property that was usurped, leaving her grandmother and servants speechless. Enraged, Old Mrs. Gu forcibly strips Su Minlan (Gu Nuannuan's mother) of her authority to manage the household. Gu Nuannuan outwardly complies but inwardly launches a sharp counterattack by publicly pointing out her grandmother's illiteracy and ignorance of capital city customs, warning that if she were to manage the household, her father, Gu Wu, would become a laughingstock.

This episode centers on the fierce confrontation between Gu Nuannuan, the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, and her grandmother and father, Gu Wu. Gu Nuannuan, with sharp words, publicly exposes her grandmother's humble origins and illiteracy, using this to counter her illegitimate sister, Gu Xiangyan, who attempts to suppress her with filial piety. Later, her father, Gu Wu, returns home and indiscriminately scolds his wife, Su Minlan, for angering the grandmother, demanding that Su Minlan learn from the concubine Yu Feng'er to "please elders." Gu Nuannuan seizes upon a loophole in her father's words, employing the feudal logic of strict hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate offspring, to publicly question her father why he would have the main wife learn from a servant, leaving Gu Wu speechless. Meanwhile, Prince Mu Rongyun witnesses Gu Nuannuan's "combat prowess" from the shadows.

This episode's plot revolves around a fierce conflict in the Gu family's main hall. Incited by his mother, Old Mrs. Gu, Gu Wu (the father) slaps his legal wife, Su Minlan, in front of everyone and accuses her of looking down on his concubine, Yu Feng'er, all to protect Yu Feng'er. At a critical moment, the reincarnated daughter Gu Nuannuan steps forward. Ostensibly crying out with childish innocence about her father "favoring his concubine over his wife," she actually leverages her maternal grandfather's (the Prime Minister's) power and the imperial family's emphasis on the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children to apply pressure. Fearing power and the exposure of scandal, Gu Wu and Old Mrs. Gu instantly soften their stance. Gu Nuannuan seizes the opportunity to set a trap, quoting her maternal grandmother to force her father to divorce Concubine Yu to "solve the problem fundamentally," pushing Gu Wu into a difficult predicament.

This episode features intense conflict centered around Gu Nuannuan, the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, and her "counterattack." Gu Nuannuan uses the patriarchal rules of seniority between legitimate and concubine-born daughters to publicly suppress her half-sister, Gu Xiangyan, and skillfully lures her father, Gu Wu, into revealing his favoritism. In an attempt to defend his concubine Yu Feng'er and her daughter, Gu Wu not only scolds Nuannuan but also takes his anger out on his legitimate wife, Su Minlan. As the conflict escalates, Old Madam Gu intervenes, verbally abusing Su Minlan for not giving birth to a son. Nuannuan seizes the opportunity to deliver a chilling statement about her deceased brother appearing in a dream, revealing her grandmother's past actions that led to her grandson's death. This causes Gu Wu to fly into a rage and physically attack Su Minlan. At the critical moment, Su Minlan's two elder brothers (her maternal uncles from the Prime Minister's mansion) make a powerful entrance,
