Retired Wang Cuilan suddenly bursts into her children’s big-city rental. She’d overheard a neighbor’s hint that “the kids aren’t doing well”—the eldest hid his layoff by faking overtime, the daughter was scammed by a toxic boyfriend yet defended him, the youngest pretended to run a startup while living off Mom and hiding in internet cafes. The tough-as-nails Mom Wang launches her “redemption spree”: she camps outside the eldest’s company to confront his boss (who turns out to be a rural kid she once helped), gathers her square dance team to corner the scammer for the daughter’s money, and swaps the youngest’s “startup gear” for a street vendor cart. The kids go from being embarrassed by Mom to secretly making her ginger tea—until a medical record falls from Mom’s pocket, revealing her fear: she’s scared that if she leaves, her kids won’t know how to live “without pretending.”
