When My City Daughter-in-Law Despised My Poverty, I Exposed My Identity and Shocked the Whole City

share time: 2026-01-22 00:38:47

Zhou Guilan, a rural woman, moves in with her city daughter-in-law Lin Xiaoyun, only to be scorned for wearing patched clothes and collecting plastic bottles—Xiaoyun forbids her from holding the grandchild, makes her eat on the balcony, and even lies at community gatherings that “she’s the nanny from my hometown.” Until Xiaoyun’s company is cheated by a partner and she’s forced to sell her house to pay debts. Guilan silently takes out an unlimited black card and calls the partner’s CEO to apologize in person. It turns out Guilan is the retired “empress of the fashion empire” who went into hiding in the countryside a decade ago to raise money for her dying husband’s medical bills. When the whole city is shocked, Xiaoyun finds a sweater hidden in Guilan’s box—it’s knitted secretly following the style from Xiaoyun’s WeChat moments, with uneven stitches but embroidered with Xiaoyun’s favorite daisies… A misunderstanding of despising poverty finally becomes a deep reconciliation between two generations hidden behind “pride.”
