Everyone says Yin Sumei is a jinx who brings misfortune to her family. On New Year's Eve, she is kicked out onto the street by her ungrateful husband's family, given only a meager sum of money, and left to wander the streets with her daughter Zhizhi. The Lin family snatches her introductory pickled vegetable recipe, thinking they will instantly strike it rich, unaware that the true supreme secret recipe was kept by her mother as a backup. In the midst of despair, Yin Sumei picks up her ancestral craft, weathering rumors, slander, and endless sabotage from competitors, battling her way from a roadside stall to build a modern pickled vegetable factory. She tears apart her ex-in-laws' greed and schemes, breaks through societal prejudices, builds her career, finds a good partner, and is reborn from the ashes to live a life blooming with flowers everywhere.
