This is a real event, restored 1:1.
Abandoned by her family at the age of sixteen, Yi Ling was left to fend for herself. At the age of 25, her mother called her to Shanghai because she was short of 20,000 yuan to open a dumpling restaurant.
While working in the dumpling restaurant, she met a guest who came to eat. Who would have thought that this man would be addicted to gambling.
The family favors boys over girls, demands too much, and her husband is addicted to gambling. She is impoverished and heavily in debt. In such a hard life, Yi Ling still resolutely stays with the man, just because he will hold her hand wherever she goes.
Yi Ling has always been looking forward to the day when the man will change for the better and be able to hold her hand for the rest of his life.
