In 1960, in the barren northern countryside, 25-year-old Sun Fang woke up from a high fever. In front of her were familiar yet unfamiliar adobe houses, and in her ears were the cries of hungry children. She was stunned - didn't she just die with hatred on the 70-year-old hospital bed? The eldest son Li Jianguo died of lung cancer at the age of 50. The eldest daughter-in-law Liu Cui was crazy for half her life. The second son Li Jianjun was estranged from his wife because of her unfilial piety. Her daughter Li Lian'er married in a foreign country and there was little news. Her husband Li Zhigang even died of exhaustion from taking care of her who was paralyzed... The suffering of more than 40 years in the previous life was like a long nightmare, engraved in her soul.
After being reborn, Sun Fang vowed: In this life, she will protect every family member and keep them safe, healthy, and reunited. With a memory that transcended the times for sixty years, she faced the famine during the three difficult years, the undercurrent of the turbulent years, and the wave of reform and opening up. She carefully used the prophets, did not go against the general trend, and only managed her family's fortune step by step. From making a living from wild vegetables to making a pot of gold, from providing education for her children to saving her future daughter-in-law, from preventing lung cancer to resolving family conflicts, she used her tenacity and wisdom to lead her husband and children to change their lives against the tide of the times.
This is a story about awakening, redemption and reconciliation. When the golden wedding came, the family was filled with children and grandchildren, and the eldest son safely crossed the 50-year-old threshold. Sun Fang looked at her husband beside her and could finally smile with tears in her eyes: There would be no regrets in this life.
