In the village of Huanan, the deity that rules is the great Hulijing. Though twelve-year-old Li Jing's name is a different character entirely from the Hulijing, the sound is close enough to provide constant teasing-but maybe is also a source of greater destiny and power. Jing's life isn't easy. Her father is a poor tea farmer and her family has come to the conclusion that in order for everyone to survive, Jing must be sacrificed for the common good. She is sold as a bride to the Koh family, where she will be the wife and nursemaid to their three-year-old son, Ju'nan. It's not fair and Jing feels this bitterly, especially when she is treated poorly by the Koh's and sold yet again into a worse situation that leads Jing to believe her only option is to run away and find home again. Will she be able to find the home again?
