In the winter of 1977, childhood sweethearts Chunxue and Maicha agreed to take the college entrance examination together. On the eve of the exam, Chunxue's family suffered a sudden change, and she had to marry Qingsong from Jinshawo Village. Maicha ran away from home in anger. Maicha's father Wei Shougen has been looking for his former unit to prove his identity. Chunxue suffered domestic violence after marriage and filed for divorce. She entered the county garment factory through recruitment, but was fired by the factory due to rumors. When she was desperate, she was rescued by her childhood friend Tiaozi. She returned to the village to set up her own sewing club and rekindled her desire for life. Maicha, who was working outside, learned the brick-making technology. With the encouragement of Secretary Li of the County Party Committee, he returned to his hometown to revitalize the abandoned brick kiln in the village. Under the leadership of Chunxue and Maicha, the poor mountain village became a provincial economic development demonstration village. Wei Shougen found his own unit, and Chunxue gradually opened his heart to Maicha again. After entering the new century, the brick kilns and garment factories were closed down. Chunxue's son Tianming graduated and returned to the village. He realized that land and food were the roots of farmers. He led the villagers to develop the planting of green food and vegetables and successfully carried out industrial transformation.
