Wang Cuihua, 55 years old, is a rural woman in the north. Her voice can knock off the roof of a house, and her hands can build walls and build houses. The proudest thing in my life is sending my son into the army. But the son did not come back and died on the island, leaving behind his pregnant city wife Lin Xiaoman.
Cuihua carried the woven bag and went to the island. Her logic is simple and crude: Can't my daughter-in-law eat well? She uses a safety helmet to grow onions on the balcony; a monopoly on the seafood market? She held an auction with the voice of shouting slogans at the construction site, and the price of fish dropped by 20% in three days; the whole village was cut off from water supply due to a typhoon? She climbed up the water tower and performed a "pipe dredging technique" and when she came down she was covered in oysters.
Grandma Chen, the local "Queen of the Earth", brought people to set the rules. Cuihua brought out a jar of homemade stinky tofu, but the "Resident Evil" old lady in the audience burst into tears after eating it. It turned out that her late husband was also from the north.
What's even more outrageous is that Cuihua took a simple and honest fisherman as her apprentice and repaired the boat using the principles of bricklaying and leveling. The repaired boat ran faster than a speedboat. She gave her daughter-in-law an abdominal massage to treat constipation. When the doctor saw her, she almost thought she was "murdering." Cuihua transformed from a "foreign shrew" to an "island lifestyle home" and opened a "mother-in-law kitchen" with left-behind elderly people and single mothers.
But Cuihua didn't know that Xiaoman had been writing a suicide note. Until the night of the typhoon, when Xiaoman went into labor prematurely, Cuihua used construction site first aid to keep mother and child safe. As the baby cried, Xiaoman held her mother-in-law's rough hand and said, "Mom, please be my real mother."
An all-powerful rural mother-in-law and a city daughter-in-law who has lost her support have turned their lives into a hilarious and tearful legend in the sea breeze.
