After getting married, career woman He Xiaozhen relies on her mother to manage the household and care for her daughter. Her mother has spent half her life working tirelessly for others without ever living for herself. Her husband, Chen Zeyu, tries to keep the peace and insists on bringing his picky mother to live with them. Her mother-in-law repeatedly makes things difficult for her and demands financial support, while her husband only pressures her to give in, ignoring everything her own mother has done for the family. Unable to endure the oppressive situation any longer, Xiaozhen resolves to protect her mother and stop compromising. She sends her mother on a trip and resolutely ends her stifling marriage, allowing both generations of mothers to break free from the burdens of housework and enjoy lives of their own.
