After Xiao Zhai's death, the balance that the Kawababe family had barely maintained was broken. Xiaocui's half-brother Zhou Lang was given away as an adopted son when he was young. He has always been resentful about this and made things difficult for Xiaocui in every possible way. His younger brother Jiliu was sinking into a life like a rootless weed and could not rely on him. His younger sister Aju had been frail and sick since she was a child and seemed to be leaving at any time. Therefore, the burden of the Heguo family falls on the shoulders of Xiaocui, who is only 22 years old...
