A raging fire transported Yang Wei's family to a parallel version of the 1960s, and Yang Wei became Yang Weiguo. Here, hunger was the norm, and slacking off was a sin. To make sure the whole family, young and old, had enough to eat, they had no choice but to come up with all sorts of clever tricks.
But they never expected that the pocket dimension Heaven had given them would be such a dud: they had to do good deeds to refresh its items. So the family made sure their good deeds were known, and word spread throughout the village. Along the way, they even cleared the notorious Old Madam Yang's name.
A tree that stands above the forest is sure to be battered by the wind. To grow rich without drawing attention, it was better for the whole village to prosper than for one family to grow wealthy, and better for the whole town to prosper than for one village...
When the era of reform finally arrived, Yang Weiguo thought he could at last set down his responsibilities. But to his surprise, the people in the brigade stubbornly refused to dissolve the commune.
"Secretary Yang, you are our guiding light. We will always support you!"
Hearing the brigade members call out to him again and again, Yang Weiguo burst into tears. No!!!!!!
Together, the family led the people of their brigade in building something from nothing and escaping poverty, bringing the stalled timeline of their parallel era back on track.
