Water Flowing Eastward

In the summer of 1996, Chen Hongyun, who was pregnant with Liujia, married into the Zhou family with longing for marriage. However, before the joy of the wedding has dissipated, the suffocating control of her husband's family has shrouded her like a dark cloud. Her father-in-law Cao Laoshuan's cold calculations, her mother-in-law Wang Xiuying's smile hiding a knife, and her husband Zhou Jiancai's weak swing between filial piety and love all made Chen Hongyun feel trapped in a quagmire. The birth of her son did not make her mother more valuable than her son, but instead became a bargaining chip for her husband's family to further manipulate her. Under the deliberate efforts of her parents-in-law to sow discord, the emotional rift between her and her husband deepened day by day, and they eventually separated. And the son she had given birth to with her life was drifting away from her under the twisted upbringing of her grandparents... This is a country female tragedy about control, betrayal and awakening. See how Chen Hongyun struggled in the desperate siege of marriage, and was finally forced to cut off the shackles of family ties and blaze her own trail of blood. This story is based on true subject matter.
