Jitree had lots of gambling debts, so she wanted her daughter, Taddao, to marry, for money, the much older Jao Yai Wattana (Jao Yai is royal title similar to Prince.) Jao Noi Yodkwan (Jao Noi is a Royal title), Jao Yai Wattana’s son, just came back from studying abroad. When he found out that his father plans to marry a young girl, he was very upset. So, he left the palace to do farming, along with his attendant.
Jitree told Taddao that her father left a will hidden somewhere in Bussaya House. Taddao decides to run away from this forced marriage to Jao Yai Wattana and go in search of the will. Since traveling alone is not safe for a young girl, Taddao’s nanny, Tiang, helps her disguise herself as a boy named Sutad. They happen to run into Jao Noi Yodkwan, himself preparing to hit the road. When Taddao, disguised as the boy Sutad, discovers that Yodkwan is a friend of Witoon’s, her relative, she asks him to take her along to Bussaya House. Jao Noi Yodkwan agrees to help, under the condition that Sutad obeys him and do everything as told, without troubling the bossy and uptight Jao Noi.
