After graduating from technical secondary school, Li Zhinan got a job at an electrical appliance repair factory and married Lin Cheng, a handsome, well-built man.
After the Reform and Opening Up, the factory went bankrupt, and the couple left their two-year-old eldest daughter behind and headed south to find work.
Years of separation drove a deep wedge between mother and daughter. Their younger son, left with no one to guide him, dropped out of school early.
Her husband spent money recklessly, and she could never save any of the money she worked so hard to earn.
By middle age, she had no permanent home, her children were distant, and her husband was coldhearted. She was alone, weighed down by regrets...
One day, she returned to twenty years earlier, when she and her husband had already headed south to make a living. Thinking of the miserable life she'd had, Li Zhinan gritted her teeth. In this life, no one was touching her money. And as for Lin Cheng, if she ever let him manage the money, she'd be a complete fool!
