Su Qinghe married into the Lin family for nine years, despised by her mother-in-law for failing to give birth to a son. Her husband, Lin Jianguo, had an affair with an outsider during their marriage and forced her to divorce, leaving her with their two daughters with nothing. After remarrying veteran Xu Wangdong, who treated her two stepdaughters as his own, Su Qinghe ran a food stall to make their lives prosperous. On the Lin family's side, Lin Jianguo was injured and lost his fertility, and Meng Xiaoyan divorced him after giving birth to a daughter. Su Qinghe ultimately gave birth to a son, but always firmly believed in a woman's value, never needing whether she birthed a son or a daughter to prove it.
