Fifty-year-old Chen Xiulan spent 30 years as a "free family caretaker"—waiting on her picky mother-in-law, funding her husband's business, and raising their son. Yet she got nothing in return: her husband cheated with his secretary, her son sponged off her for a wedding house, and her mother-in-law called her "useless." On her birthday, she caught her husband bringing his lover home and was ordered to cook sea cucumber soup for "the guest." Finally, she snapped: she smashed the soup bowl, took her 10-year savings, and walked out. She joined a senior college to learn baking, opened a community "Mom's Canteen" that became a hit. When her ex-husband begged to reconcile, her son asked for money, and her mother-in-law played victim, she smiled and handed over the divorce papers: "I'm 50. It's my turn to live for myself."
