Li Shuqin, a modern independent woman, with the pain and overwhelming resentment of being starved to death in her previous life and having her young son murdered at the same time, suddenly opened her eyes in a dilapidated coffin and found that she was reborn in Lijia Village, an imaginary ancient village with conservative folk customs and rumors that people can kill people. She became "Widow Li" with a recently deceased husband and a baby waiting to be fed. There are gossips at the door, and at home there are the best husband's relatives who are like wolves and tigers who want to eat her mother and child alive, and there are even the village scoundrels who covet her reputation as a bit of a poor land and a "widow".
The cowardice and concession in the previous life resulted in the miserable companionship of mother and son on the road to hell. In this life, Li Shuqin's eyes were filled with ice, her heart was on fire, and her nails were dug into her palms. She vowed never to make the same mistakes again! Faced with the intensified negotiations and calculations of her husband's family - the acrimonious mother-in-law wanted to sell her in exchange for a bride price for her youngest son to marry, the greedy sister-in-law was worried about her two shabby thatched huts, and the idle brother-in-law was even more aggressive - she was no longer the one who couldn't fight back or scolded her. She straightened her back, relied on the logic of modern people and the lessons of blood and tears in her previous life, word by word, heart-breaking every sentence, and defeated these best people speechless and faceless, and even more cleverly devised the "empty city plan" They frightened off the evil neighbors of White Lotus, and worked step by step to regain the meager property that should belong to their mother and son, protecting the crumbling thatched house and the skinny son who was crying for food.
