This story focuses on the life trajectory and growth and transformation of Lin, an ordinary woman. It takes family relationships and urban hard work as the main lines, and outlines a picture of an ordinary woman holding on to warmth and hope in the face of life difficulties.
Lin once lived in a small town and was treated favorably by her parents-in-law. She watched her sister-in-law Xiaoya being cared for in every possible way during her pregnancy. Compared with her own hardship and loneliness during pregnancy, she always remained kind despite her grievances. In order to give her daughter Xiaoting a better growing environment and to escape from her oppressive life, Lin decided to leave the town and go to the city with her husband Li Yang to work hard. When she first arrived in the city, she experienced difficulties in finding housing and finding a job, but she suddenly had the idea to join a real estate company, which not only solved her livelihood but also found a suitable place to live, and gradually established her foothold in the work.
When she fully expected to bring her in-laws to live with her in the city and relieve the stress of raising a baby, she was rejected by her in-laws on the grounds that she was "unaccustomed to city life" and "had to take care of her sister-in-law's children." In desperation, Lin started a busy life of working and raising a baby at the same time - preparing breakfast for her daughter in the morning, picking up the baby in the evening and doing grocery shopping and cooking, and handling housework and finishing work late at night. Despite the hard life, her husband Li Yang's thoughtfulness and daughter Xiaoting's sensibleness make this small family full of warmth.
There is no fierce conflict in the story, but in the daily life of daily necessities, it shows Lin's tolerance and sobriety when facing family favoritism, her tenacity and wisdom when facing the pressure of life, and her unique interpretation of "family harmony" - true happiness does not rely on others to fulfill it, but is created by one's own hands and built on the warmth of family support. In the end, Lin persisted in the smoke of fireworks
