The disgraced official Xie Changhai's family was framed and exiled to Hainan. Thinking it was the beginning of hard times, they never expected that the northerners' optimism and survival wisdom would directly turn exile into a new life.

In the end, their grievances were redressed, but they found that Hainan had long become the northerners' second home.
