This is a story of family drama without a romantic pairing. Everyone is given life by their mother, so why do good people often die young? She possesses the superpower to resurrect others, and she wholeheartedly and responsibly tries to resurrect her deceased relatives. She is not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and instead of receiving any gratitude, she doesn't blame them. Instead, they think she is a fraud and beat and scold her, yet she still helps them resurrect without hesitation. However, some deceased relatives repay kindness with enmity and want to kill her. She feels heartbroken, but her mother appears and protects her. The reason why maternal love is worthy of praise is that even the deceased want to protect their living relatives. She wants to resurrect her mother, but because she is busy working overtime in another city to earn a meager living, she couldn't see her mother one last time. The dilemma of young people is that first- and second-tier cities cannot accommodate those without ambition, while third- and fourth-tier cities cannot accommodate souls. When she returned to the moment before her mother's death, how could she not know that her mother would leave her? Happiness is actually very simple. Eating her mother's cooking makes her feel like she has a home, while outside she feels like a homeless person. But she failed; she became truly homeless. Everyone says that home is where her mother is, but without her mother, she has no home at all. She doesn't know how to go on living. She mixes her tears with rice, filled with self-blame. The pain traps her in her own world, preventing her from escaping. Why are others so happy? She so envies others with complete families. Her heart is missing a piece, and she can only eat salty rice with tears in her eyes to survive. But who is she living for? She doesn't know. She only knows to live like a walking corpse for now. Only by living can she not betray the feelings her mother had when she saved her. But she really doesn't know how to live anymore. How should she live a good life? Perhaps she needs enough time to become numb before she can regain the feelings she should have.
