Original title

Jin Yitang is a highly experienced practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, whose exclusive secret remedy, the "Rejuvenation Golden Pill," can cure a wide range of difficult and complicated ailments, and only Jin Yitang himself knows its formula. Jin Yitang has two daughters, Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi. After marrying Zhang Quanyi, Jin Xiu went a long time without becoming pregnant, which worried Jin Yitang deeply. By chance, Jin Yitang came across an abandoned infant, took him in, and named him Jin Xing. After a series of accidents and twists and turns, Jin Xiu became Jin Xing's adoptive mother. Jin Zhi meets a man named Xu Boxian, who runs a company and is determined to get hold of the formula for the Rejuvenation Golden Pill in order to mass-produce it for enormous profit. The existence of the Rejuvenation Golden Pill draws everyone into a vortex of conspiracy and emotion.
