Lin Shitou, a mountain farmer who lost his father young, raised his mother by selling wild vegetables but harbored a dream of passing the imperial exam—yet the ten taels needed for the journey was three years of his income! To raise money, he dried wild mushrooms from the back mountain to sell, only to be framed by the landlord’s son for “stealing” and nearly had his goods confiscated. Desperate, he used his mother’s pickling recipe to improve the mushrooms, which surprisingly sold at a high price in the county town! While gathering goods at dawn and selling during the day, he stayed up late reading classics. Neighbors mocked him as “daydreaming,” but his childhood sweetheart Axiu secretly helped him copy books and take notes… When he stood outside the exam hall holding twenty taels from selling mushrooms, and the osmanthus candy Axiu had stuffed him—this time, the poor farmer was determined to turn “impossible” into “possible!”
