On the wedding day, the "wedding night" incident hurts her younger sister, forcing Hanh Phuc to stand up and fight; from there, creating a conflict between Hanh Phuc and Wanjia. When the local government wants to build a factory on her family's land, she is determined to sue to protect her legal rights. To avoid the dissatisfaction of the villagers, Hanh Phuc and her husband have to leave their hometown to go to the city to make a living, facing a broken marriage and an unstable life. Returning to her hometown, Hanh Phuc boldly starts a homestay tourism business, and at the same time firmly fights against the polluting factory.
