In 1983, in Zhaojia Village, northern Jiangsu.
Nan Sisi has been married into the Zhao family for three years. She rises early, works late, and endures endless mistreatment from her mother-in-law, Liu Guixiang.
According to the fate laid out for her, she will be exploited by her husband's family for the rest of her life, publicly humiliated by a hooligan, and forced to endure a miserable existence in silence.
When she wakes, the Fate-Prediction System activates!
[Tragic fate detected. Change the course of events early and rewrite the ending!]
Her mother-in-law makes life difficult, her sister-in-law steals and frames her, the hooligan Wang Baoliu is about to cause trouble at her door, her husband Zhao Jianguo is about to return home, and the old forces close in at every turn.
In this life, she will no longer be a meek little wife who puts up with everything.
She takes on her terrible in-laws, tears into the gossiping neighbors, and uses the clues she has to outsmart the village's evildoers.
She meets Ji Changjiang, a mysterious outsider in dire straits, seizes the opportunities brought by reform and opening up, and makes the most of the supply cooperative's business prospects to start a side business, build her savings, and earn money of her own.
She won't rely on a man to stand up for her, or on a stroke of luck. With courage and cunning, she will break free from the shackles of a feudal household.
If marrying into the Zhao family means being treated like livestock, then she'll tear this prison apart and live a life that's truly her own!
