The Black Cross in the Family Tree
Fifteen years after leaving home, Zhao Jiaming returns to Zhao Village in glory with his wife, Wang Li, hoping to honor his parents and reclaim his place in the family. But his parents favor his younger siblings, who have become snobbish and materialistic. They publicly trample the century-old wild ginseng he carefully prepared into the mud and even plan to expel him from the family genealogy to curry favor with Liu Defa, the chamber of commerce's vice president. Only when a senior assistant from Yuanding Group and his son, Zhao Yu, appear one after another does everyone realize that this so-called penniless nobody, despised by his entire family, is actually the power behind one of the country's leading conglomerates. When the truth comes to light, Zhao Jiaqiang, Zhao Jiayan, and the others expose their disgraceful true colors and ultimately suffer the consequences of their own actions. Zhao Jiaming, meanwhile, lets go of the past and sets off with his wife and son toward a new life that truly belongs to them.

Lima belas tahun selepas meninggalkan rumah, Zhao Jiaming pulang ke Kampung Keluarga Zhao dengan penuh kejayaan bersama isterinya, Wang Li. Dia berniat berbakti kepada ibu bapanya dan kembali kepada asal-usul keluarganya. Namun, ibu bapanya berat sebelah, manakala adik-adiknya mementingkan kebendaan. Mereka memijak ginseng liar berusia seratus tahun yang disediakannya dengan penuh teliti sehingga tenggelam dalam lumpur di hadapan orang ramai. Malah, demi mengambil hati Liu Defa, naib pengerusi dewan perdagangan, mereka mahu menyingkirkannya daripada salasilah keluarga. Hanya selepas pembantu kanan Kumpulan Yuanding dan anak lelakinya, Zhao Yu, muncul berturut-turut, barulah semua orang menyedari bahawa 'orang miskin yang tidak berguna' yang dibenci seluruh keluarganya itu sebenarnya penggerak di sebalik tabir salah sebuah konglomerat terkemuka negara. Setelah kebenaran terbongkar, Zhao Jiaqiang, Zhao Jiayan dan yang lain-lain menampakkan perangai buruk mereka, lalu akhirnya menerima padah akibat perbuatan sendiri. Zhao Jiaming pula melupakan masa lalu dan memulakan kehidupan baharu bersama isteri serta anak lelakinya, kehidupan yang benar-benar milik mereka.
