Lu Wanwan has been married into a wealthy family for five years, and has become her mother-in-law's cash machine, her husband's transparent person, and her stepdaughter's punching bag. She gets up at five o'clock in the morning every day and wipes the floor on her knees. Her fingers are red, swollen and deformed, but she can't say "Thank you for your hard work" in return. Her mother-in-law Wang Guifen is mean and snobbish and uses her as a free nanny; her husband Shen Mohan is cold and ruthless and only has his first love Bai Mengyao in his heart; and her stepdaughter Xiaomeng is instigated to be hostile to her.
For five years, she had no dignity, no warmth, and no one cared about her life or death.
On the day of her mother-in-law's birthday party, she was pushed into the kitchen to cook 108 dishes. She was so exhausted that she had a miscarriage and her entire apron was stained red with blood. But the husband hugged another woman during the dinner and said, "She? She's just a free nanny."
