Song Jinxi is a wealthy third-generation rich kid from the 21st century who discovers a mysterious space after a floral birthmark appears on her elbow. The space, a top-tier dimension left by a previous cultivator, prepares her for transmigration to a historical fiction world in 1960. With thirty days remaining, she liquidates her assets, selling her villas, cars, and company shares to her estranged parents. She spends the fortune stockpiling massive quantities of food, medicine, clothing, and vintage items, including firearms and gold, storing everything in her infinite space. Her relationship with her family is fractured; her father, Song Bai, has been manipulated by his new wife, Li Mei, and their biological daughter, Song Rou. Song Jinxi feels no attachment to this world and views her impending transmigration as a liberation.
Upon arriving in 1960, Song Jinxi inhabits the body of an eight-year-old girl who is on the verge of death from poisoning and starvation. The original host was being systematically abused by her father and stepmother, who planned to send her to the countryside to die. Song Jinxi uses her space to heal herself and immediately takes action. She breaks into the home of the steel factory director who stole her family's job and the home of her father, stealing their hidden wealth, including gold, jewelry, and property deeds. She then confronts her father at the hospital, exposing his crimes and the fact that he is not her biological father. Using the threat of public scandal, she forces him to sign a severance of ties and pay her five hundred yuan.
Song Jinxi then turns the tables on her enemies. She disguises herself as Li Mei and registers Song Rou for the most harsh assignment: the Northern Wilderness. She also ensures her own placement in the more manageable Red Star Brigade. After selling her father's courtyard house and her own job position, she departs for the countryside. On the train, she encounters various characters, including the manipulative Chen Yu and the loud Xu Shixing, but maintains her distance. She forms a quick alliance with Tang Tiantian, a ten-year-old girl who also seeks to avoid the drama of the main youth dormitory.
Upon arrival at Red Star Brigade, Song Jinxi purchases a vacant house near the mountain for ninety yuan, ensuring her privacy. She invites Tang Tiantian to live with her, splitting the cost. The two girls establish a domestic routine, with Song Jinxi cooking and Tang Tiantian handling chores and black market connections. Song Jinxi navigates the social dynamics of the brigade, avoiding conflict while securing her resources. She encounters Chen Yu again, who attempts to use moral coercion to steal her food, but Song Jinxi firmly rejects her schemes. The story follows Song Jinxi as she builds a secure, comfortable life in the past, using her future knowledge and space resources to thrive while leaving her abusers to face the consequences of their actions.
