Marrying a Wife and Forgetting One's Mother

Plot Synopsis

Li Guilan became a widow in her middle age and painstakingly brought up her three children. Her eldest son, Qingshan, didn't get married until he was thirty-five due to poverty. However, at this time, the twins Qing'an and Qingqing were both admitted to universities simultaneously. Li Guilan ran around to scrape together the betrothal gifts and tuition fees. Unexpectedly, Qingshan secretly took the tuition fees to buy the "Three Golds" (referring to gold necklace, gold bracelet and gold ring in Chinese wedding traditions). During the quarrel between the brothers, Qingqing's hand was broken, which dashed her hope of going to the art academy. Outraged, Qing'an left home.
