50-year-old Li Guilan has spent half her life being everyone's doormat: she's worked tirelessly to save for her son's apartment, handled all household chores, while her husband can't even pour a glass of water without her help. When she finds her husband secretly lent their retirement savings to his brother and her son asked her to use all her life savings for his wedding dowry, she finally snaps, slamming her apron down and shouting "At 50, I'm done being a workhorse!" The next day, she quits her job, packs a single bag, buys a train ticket to Yunnan and blocks all nagging relatives, finally living for herself for the first time.
