Synopsis

In 1975, Zhao Jianguo is reborn on a heated brick bed. Before him are four frail daughters and a dilapidated thatched hut. In his previous life, his adopted son buried him alive. Only as he lay dying did he learn that none of the boy's blood was his, and that his daughters were the ones who truly cared. In this life, he sees through his wife's affair and the boy born from it. He resolves to divorce her, kick the boy out, and make his own way. By chance, he gains memories of the future and gets a head start on the era of reform and opening up and the market economy. He can anticipate policy changes, bring in improved seed varieties, and start factories and businesses, using knowledge to change his fate. While others are still farming just to get by, he is raising pigs, building biogas plants, and sending all his daughters to school. The villagers mock him as a man without a son, but a few years later they watch him lead his entire family to turn their lives around. He makes sure his daughters can read and write, stands up for them when they divorce and seek justice, and sends his youngest girl to university. From a despised poor man to the county's most respected leader in building prosperity. The village bullies who once tormented him and his daughters now bow their heads and beg him for work. His four daughters become a teacher, a doctor, an entrepreneur, and more, bringing honor to the family. He will spend the rest of his life making up for past regrets, building dignity in an era that favors sons over daughters. The five of them rise out of the mud and create a heartwarming legend of turning their lives around.
