Retired teacher Wang Shufen received thirty million in massive funds from the demolition of her old family house. To test her children's true feelings, she falsely claimed that her money was defrauded and that she was burdened with debt, taking turns living in the homes of her three children. Her eldest son, Zhao Jianjun, is vain and calculating, making her live in a storage room and refusing to bear surgery expenses; her youngest son, Zhao Jianping, is sweet-mouthed and greedy, colluding with his girlfriend to covet the elderly woman's money; only her daughter, Zhao Jianhong, who has been neglected and owed by her parents for years, puts aside past grievances, cares for her sincerely, and pulls out her savings to treat her illness. At her seventieth birthday banquet, she publicly exposes her children's calculations, and with the children having their respective destinations, Wang Shufen heads to the mountains to run a school, realizing the true meaning of life: "Raising children to guard against old age is not as good as raising the heart."
