Song Yumei lost her husband and had no children of her own. She treated her nephew as her own son and lent her vacant school-district apartment to her brother and sister-in-law so they could live there while he studied. When her nephew was admitted to university, she went to reclaim her property, only to discover how cold-hearted her relatives truly were. Between family bonds and her own place to live, she settles old scores and takes back control of her life.
