In a certain county in contemporary China, junior high school Chinese teacher Lin Xiaohui is the most sensible eldest daughter of the Lin family. She has elderly and sick parents, and a daughter who is facing the high school entrance examination. She juggles work and family, trying hard to maintain the superficial harmony between the three brothers and sisters. However, his father's serious illness broke the peace. His younger brother Lin Wei took the opportunity to take advantage of his old age and coveted the money for the demolition of his old house. His younger sister Lin Fang's failed marriage led her to take her children back to her parents' home to seek refuge. At the same time, Lin Xiaohui's husband Chen Jian appeared to be honest, but in fact he was secretly transferring property. In the vortex of supporting the elderly, distributing family property, and marital betrayal, Lin Xiaohui went from blindly tolerating to awakening. She used her tenacious bottom line to defend her daughter's future and her parents' old age. In the end, through the disintegration and reorganization of the three families, she completed her self-salvation and found the real fireworks in the world.
