Episode 1 recap: A Torn Future
Zhao Xinyi earns admission to a prestigious university, but her father slams the table and tosses her acceptance letter away. Her mother stomps on the paper, ordering her to get married immediately to secure bride price money for her brother Zhao Zhiqiang. Xinyi refuses, and her mother slaps her across the face. Her sick grandmother steps forward with a walking cane to stop the attack. The father refuses to spend a single coin. Her grandmother wipes Xinyi's tears and vows to borrow the tuition money door to door.
