In the autumn of 1963, 18-year-old Zhou Xiaohe married Zhao Weimin in Zhaojiazhuang. The three generations of the Zhao family live under the same roof. The sisters-in-law get along well with each other, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along with each other, and they live in a difficult situation day by day.
There are no golden fingers, no miracles, just the solid fireworks of farmers in the era of large collectives. With a pair of skillful hands and a transparent heart, Xiao He established a foothold in the big family. From growing medicinal materials on his own plot to selling eggs on the black market, he saved his family's fortune through careful planning. Her husband, Wei Min, is hard-working and hard-working. From being a clerk to being a production team leader, he is the family's most stable supporter.
The waves of the times come one after another: educated youths go to the countryside, families are separated to build houses, the elderly pass away, the college entrance examination is resumed... The Zhao family's little boat is swaying, but it never breaks up. The days are like crops in the field, one crop after another, from green to yellow.
