In 1983, clothing pattern maker Jiang Mingyue time travels and becomes a foolish mother in Qingshi Village who was driven out by her in-laws and abandoned by her eloping husband. Faced with the stark reality of a bare home and children suffering from bullying, she decisively awakens. After outwitting village ruffians and bullies, she builds her career through tailoring skills, ranging from helping villagers alter and mend old clothes to taking back a seized sewing machine, and finally securing a large uniform order for the town's school, leading her children to earn their first pot of gold. Protected by her neighbor He Changshan, life becomes more and more prosperous. Ultimately, facing her down-and-out scumbag ex-husband who has returned to the village to fight for property and snatch the children, she strikes back head-on, completing a brilliant turnaround of counterattack and sudden wealth with her children.
