In 1972, a devastating drought struck. Su Xiaomei's family, desperate to save their dying wheat, scraped money to dig a well—only to break through ten meters of soil and find a clear underground river! The villagers went from gawking to helping build canals, and Zhou Mingyuan, a handsome educated youth from the next team, volunteered. Sparks flew as they carried soil together. But the river's “magic water” didn’t just make wheat boom—it cured Xiaomei’s grandma’s chronic illness. The commune caught wind; some envied their “treasure” and tried to steal the water rights. Xiaomei defended the river while teaming up with Zhou, turning conflicts into a致富 (get-rich) opportunity. Turns out, the driest 70s season hid the most down-to-earth, sweet comeback story.
