GUI Mei (played by Yang Huishan) came alone from Nanjing to Taiwan in search of her fiance but failed. She temporarily stayed at her cousin's home but was treated by the servants. To escape the life of being dependent on others, she married Hou Yongnian (played by Li Liqun), a middle-aged man abandoned by his wife, and became the stepmother of three children. However, due to Hou Yongnian's gambling addiction and being an adopted woman, she felt as if she had just emerged from a Wolf's den and then entered a tiger's lair. After giving birth to her child, GUI Mei went to Japan with Hou Yongnian to work as a domestic helper for a living. After learning excellent cooking skills at a local Chinese restaurant by chance, she returned to Taiwan and opened the "Xia Fei's Home" restaurant independently. However, while she was thrifty and diligent in managing the household, Hou Yongnian relapsed into his old ways. What made her even more heartbroken was the selfishness and ruthlessness of her children, daughter-in-law and son-in-law, who had all achieved success when they grew up.[Collapse]
