On the very day Lin Chuxia, the Lin family's biological daughter, is brought back to her wealthy family, Lin Yuwei falsely accuses her of smashing Grandma's treasured jade bracelet. Lin Chongli and Su Yuqin respond with cold words, while Lin Huaixu berates her, saying she doesn't deserve the Lin surname. The Lin family closes its doors in her face. After wandering the streets for two days, Lin Chuxia faints from hunger at the entrance to a night market in an urban village. Huang Dayong, a fried-rice-noodle stall owner, carries her back to his tin shack. Huang Dayong has bleached blond hair and wears a tank top and flip-flops. His household includes Zhou Jinfeng and four blond-haired daughters. Huang's mother complains about having another mouth to feed, but Huang's father slams the table and declares, 'It's just one more pair of chopsticks. We'll put her through school!'
