In his previous life, Lin Guoqiang poured all the family's savings into supporting his parents and brothers, only to find that when he was seriously ill and needed money to save his life, no one was willing to help. When he opened his eyes again, he had unexpectedly returned to 1980. Given a second chance at life, Lin Guoqiang refuses to keep yielding. He settles the family accounts, refuses to let relatives exploit him, and shields his wife and daughters from harm. Armed with his excellent cooking skills, he starts by selling meat-stuffed flatbreads outside an agricultural machinery factory. From street vending to opening a shop and competing against rivals, he gradually carves out his own place in the bustling, smoke-filled world of the 1980s. Along the way, he relearns what it means to be a husband, a father, and a man truly living for himself.
