The Nanny Got Our House

Zhou Guilan, a 62-year-old retired factory worker, was left alone in her old house slated for demolition after her husband's death. A demolition notice for 3.8 million yuan acted like a mirror, instantly revealing the true nature of her children, who hadn't visited in over three months, and their "filial piety" suddenly overflowed. Her eldest son wanted to seize management rights, her second daughter wanted her share of the compensation, and her youngest son was already at the door with creditors. At a family reunion dinner filled with their own hidden agendas, Zhou Guilan calmly announced: she would give the house to Liu Fen, the caregiver who had looked after her for two years. This wasn't just a story of an elderly woman being fooled; it was a premeditated test of human nature. Holding a ledger kept for thirty years, Zhou Guilan peeled back the layers of her children's pretense, using the 3.8 million yuan to conduct the most costly reckoning for her later years and for her family relationships.
