Ling Xue is reborn in the 1980s. In her previous life, she spent her entire dowry furnishing a marital home for the educated youth Cheng Junhao, only to be abandoned through a conspiracy between him and Zhao Mengting. During a bitter winter, she fell seriously ill and had no one to care for her. This time, she tears up the property purchase contract in front of everyone and decisively breaks off the engagement. She spends all her savings acquiring a barren, abandoned plot of land that the entire village looks down on. Everyone mocks her for being foolish, but unexpectedly, a geological survey reveals a high-grade gold deposit beneath the land. With the greater good in mind, Ling Xue voluntarily hands the mineral resources over to the state free of charge, earning government support and financial rewards. She seizes the opportunity to build an industrial enterprise and carves out a successful career through her own efforts. Cheng Junhao's greed and scheming ultimately bring about his own downfall, causing him to miss his life's greatest opportunity.
