About This Book
Set at an ancestral country estate dominated by a sealed herb garden and layered family legend, the narrative follows intertwined lives shaped by memory, longing, and social obligation. Romance and jealousy provoke secret schemes, revelations, illness, and renunciation, while a woman's patient influence and herbal remedies mediate conflicts and awaken remorse. Episodes range from youthful passions and haunting dreams to quiet reconciliations and tragic departures, exploring how silence, sacrifice, and small acts of care reshape fortunes and relationships across generations.
