In the summer of 1992, a landslide on a rainy night buried half of the old street in Qingshi Town. Three educated youth families who were trapped in the ruins and returned to the city were forced to move into the "Qingshan Lane" tube building allocated by the textile factory. From then on, they began a seven-year love-hate entanglement. Lin Jianguo, a technician at a machinery factory, and Xu Qiuyue, a female textile worker, fell in love with each other while rescuing the ruins. However, they fell into a triangle whirlpool due to the marriage contract left by the educated youth who returned to the city; their younger siblings led different lives in the wave of state-owned enterprise restructuring - some went south to make a career. In Shenzhen, some people stayed behind to guard endangered factories, while others were involved in smuggling incidents... When the old yellow jujube tree at the alley fell for the seventh time, these young people, swept away by the tide of the times, finally found their roots in the smoke of boiling hot pots.
