During the Republic of China, the storm in Jiangcheng carried the regrets and struggles of two generations.
Sixteen-year-old girl Xiang Yi was originally carefree, but due to the disastrous failure of her father's business, her family fell into ruin overnight, and she was unable to maintain food and clothing.
Her mother died young. She was the eldest daughter of the Cao family in Jiangcheng. She broke up with the family in order to marry a commoner and never had any contact with her again. In desperation, her father had no choice but to send Xiang Yi to the Cao family, which was her only place to stay.
When he first entered a prosperous and wealthy family, Xiang Yi felt down and out and full of anxiety.
Relatives who have never met have very different attitudes: grandma is concerned and conflicted, uncles are at odds with each other, aunts are secretly sizing them up, cousins are alienated and testing.
Being dependent on others, she was walking on thin ice and was forced to lose her youth. She struggled to grow up in the entanglement between the rules of a wealthy family and people's hearts. She missed her father and was nostalgic for the past while struggling to survive.
The smoke and rain in Jiangcheng cannot hide old hatred, and the fine clothes and food cannot warm the heart of an orphan girl.
