When overworked office drone Zhang Qiaoqiao opens her eyes, she's lying in a coffin, having become a poor widow who was just beaten to death by her own younger brother!
Her three children are so hungry they're gaunt, the rice jar is emptier than a face without a nose, and her awful second uncle is already at the door, trying to seize the family's only two mu of poor farmland.
Facing this hellish start, Zhang Qiaoqiao pats the coffin lid. No problem! She has two good hands and feet, plus an emotional shop golden finger!
She turns the leaves no one wants, scattered all over the mountains, into fairy tofu, earning a fortune every day and making the neighbor's children drool.
She turns stinky chicken and duck feathers that no one wants into light, warm down quilts, which the county's wealthy families scramble to buy!
After dealing with her rotten birth family and infuriating the village gossips to death, she watches life get better and better, even picking up a handsome young gentleman from a rich family as a regular customer.
But her eldest son raises a carrying pole protectively. "If you want to be my stepfather, you'll have to get past me first!"
Zhang Qiaoqiao looks at the children running all over the place, counts her bright silver coins, and grins from ear to ear. What's wrong with being a widow? This widow lives more comfortably than any of you!
