share time: 2026-02-10 00:30:26

Lin Xiaoman, a planner in the big city, returns home on Little New Year to celebrate her grandma's birthday, only to be pushed into the role of "temporary clan leader" by the villagers—all the young people have left, and traditions like dragon dancing and Spring Festival couplets have long faded. Even the old clan leader who guarded the ancestral hall for 30 years is ready to take down the couplets. Determined to save her grandma's "New Year memories", she uses her workplace "user thinking": live-streaming handmade New Year goods with elderly villagers, dragging the dragon dance team away from mahjong tables, and betting with the skeptical village accountant to "make the village speaker ring in seven days". Just as things pick up, her grandma's 20-year-old "osmanthus cake secret" comes to light—it's an unsent New Year gift tied to the old clan leader's regret. When the scent of sugar melons mixes with live-stream comments filling the village, Lin realizes what she's looking for isn't "perfect traditions", but the courage for the whole village to be lively together.
