In 1955, Xu Huizhen (played by Jiang Wenli), who lost her husband soon after her marriage, inherited the ancestral property and became the owner of the tavern. In order to run the tavern, Xu Huizhen experienced many ups and downs. In different historical periods such as "public-private partnership", "Great Leap Forward", "Three Years of Natural Disasters" and "Cultural Revolution", Xu Huizhen served as a manager several times and was dismissed several times, but she always adhered to her business philosophy and never changed no matter what difficulties she encountered. In 1979, the spring breeze of reform blew, and the tavern returned to Xu Huizhen's hands and rejuvenated again. In the 30 years after the reform and opening up, Xu Huizhen led the people around her to make a fortune and move towards a well-off life. After the regular customers of the tavern became rich, some people's thoughts changed accordingly, but Xu Huizhen's moral values and values did not change. In her, good and evil, beauty and ugliness are always so clear.
