After Yang Jiawei, 38, suddenly died in a rented room, he transmigrated into Feng Duan, a 13-year-old rural girl in the 1960s. Trapped in an impoverished rural setting and a rigid patriarchal society, she faces a struggle to survive and obstruction from awful relatives. Relying on her modern knowledge and a jade pendant with its own pocket dimension, she tries to change her family's fortunes and climb the social ladder. However, her ideas are misunderstood by the villagers, and she must also navigate her relationships with her female confidantes. If she cannot quickly secure enough food and break through the class barrier, not only will her family's lives remain difficult, but she will continue to struggle in these dire circumstances. Yet Feng Duan is resilient and practical. With help from her allies, she outwits the forces against her and presses toward her goal, one step at a time.
