On the rainy night marking the 10th anniversary of her mother's death, modern white-collar worker Lin Xiaoman accidentally travels back to 1994. That year, her mother Fang Xiulan had just been laid off from the textile factory, crouching at the alley entrance mending pants, her eyes still glowing with hope unbroken by life. Xiaoman doesn't dare to reveal her identity, so she pretends to be a "niece from out of town"—secretly helping her mother find a night market stall job, reclaiming fresh vegetables that were cut in line, and even shielding her from the abusive suitor from her past life. But when she finally works up the courage to say, "Mom, I'm Xiaoman," she finds her hands starting to fade—turns out the cost of changing history is that she's disappearing from this world. She has to choose: preserve her own existence, or let her mother live a life without regret?
