Watching his hardworking mother get bullied by toxic relatives and pass away early in his past life, Dong Xiangqian died with deep grievances. Reborn back into his sixteen-year-old impoverished youth, he desperately protects his mother to change their fate, seizing the opportunities of the reform and opening-up to build his fortune from scratch. He defeats the uncle family plotting to steal their property, brings down fraudulent and dishonest merchants, and washes away past humiliation. Ultimately, he enables his mother—who suffered all her life—to wear gold and silver, live in a new mansion, host birthday banquets, and live as a blessed old lady respected by everyone, restoring upright family traditions and turning bitterness into sweetness.
