58-year-old Liu Guilan runs a breakfast shop on an old street in the county. When she is hospitalized for surgery, her in-law Ma Chunhua takes the excuse of taking care of her pregnant daughter-in-law to have her whole family occupy Liu's old house, changing the locks and throwing away her memorabilia. Yet her son Zhou Hao cowardly compromises, asking her to temporarily live in the warehouse. News of the old house's demolition spreads, and the Ma family divides the relocation housing in advance, only to find that the property rights belong solely to Liu Guilan. The Ma family immediately pretends to be filial. Liu Guilan originally wanted to give her son a chance, but catches Zhou Hao conspiring with her daughter-in-law to fake illness to deceive her, stealing documents in an attempt to handle the demolition by proxy. She finally sees through the truth of her son repeatedly backing down and pleasing outsiders.
