The story revolves around the character 居行簡 (Ju Xingjian), a man of integrity and modest means, who longs for a son to continue his lineage. After much anticipation and disappointment, his wife eventually gives birth to a daughter, 將珠小姐 (miss Zhangzhu), who, due to her impressive intellect, is raised as a boy to fulfill the family’s aspirations. The opening of the narrative introduces Ju Xingjian and his wife, who initially face societal challenges regarding their lineage due to the lack of a male heir. Ju's reluctance to push for more children leads to the unexpected joy of having a daughter who is exceptionally clever and talented. Over time, her upbringing in male attire blurs the lines of gender identity as she excels in education and becomes a center of attention, particularly with suitors seeking her hand in marriage. This sets the stage for the exploration of societal expectations, familial duty, and the complexities of identity, as Ju Xingjian balances his desires for legacy with the realities of his daughter’s capabilities and aspirations.
