Plot introduction
In the early 1980s, a city in the north. Seventeen-year-old Yang remarried Luo Jia with her mother and became sisters with her classmates' sworn enemies. Messi is a few days younger than Luo Lili. She is simple and optimistic, while Luo Lili is proud and competitive.
Lin Feiya, who is tall, handsome and a little naughty, is very popular with girls, and Lily likes him, too, but they always love to compete, and no one buys anyone's account. Fiya and Messi are good friends, and their relationship is very close, which causes Lily's jealousy, so there are constant contradictions.
The army came to the school to recruit soldiers. Messi was chosen, but Lily didn't succeed. Lin Feiya decided to play with a pair of roller skates as a birthday present for Lily. In the evening, he asked his sister to keep an eye on him, climbed over the wall and stole the pulley from the warehouse of the 570 factory at that time. After seeing it, Lily mistakenly thought that they were having an affair, so she told the Security Section in a rage.
My sister was arrested, but she was charged with theft alone, expelled from school and disqualified from joining the army. She was replaced by Lily, and her mother died of cancer recurrence.
After being released from prison, Messi committed suicide by jumping into the river. She was rescued by Ma Zhimin of the security department who arrested her. Ma Zhimin encouraged her to live bravely and actively helped her out of the psychological dilemma of aphasia. After struggle, she entered the street service station and became a laundryman.
Lily was discharged from the army and was assigned to a bus company as a conductor because she had no background. She didn't want to know Dai Zheng, the lame and eccentric son of a military commander, and went out with him against her will.
Feiya came back from Guangzhou, practiced stalls with Messi in the night market, and soon hooked up with Lily. Lily stepped on two boats and sought comfort from Fiya to satisfy her desire for love. She wants fish and paws. As a result, Feiya stabbed Dai Zheng in prison, and Dai Zheng and Lily divorced.
The service station can't keep up with the times and is facing bankruptcy. After Messi took over, he developed into a clothing store and managed very well. She was also rated as' excellent self-employed' by the city. Lily worked as a conductor for several days, but she didn't. She hooked up with Lao Tan, a Hong Kong businessman, to do business together, and Lao Tan only lived with her, not mentioning marriage.
Messi attended the university dance at the invitation of her classmates. Qinhuai, a famous radio host who knew her, soon fell in love, but never imagined that he was an impostor. His real name is Huagang. He sells tickets on the bus and is Lily's teacher.
The lie was soon exposed, and Hua Gang went to the cave and disappeared. What makes Xi May unbearable is that she is pregnant. Ma Zhimin, who has always had a crush on her, stepped forward and was willing to marry her, causing an uproar. My sister miscarried unexpectedly, and was moved by Ma Zhimin's affection and persistence, and promised to marry him.
After marriage, Ma Zhimin quit her job as a buyer to help Macy sell clothes, and Fiya was released from prison. Messi wanted to drag him into business, which caused misunderstanding in Ma Zhimin. Because women are stronger than men, Ma Zhimin's emotional balance is tilted.
With the appearance of his old colleague Xiangzi, he began a period of emotional infidelity. From Xiangzi, he found the shadow of his sister. After she found out, she set off a family storm. Finally, Xiangzi slapped her and Xiangzi resigned, which undoubtedly cast a shadow over her marriage with Ma Zhimin.
Lily used her relationship to get to know Director Li, an old comrade-in-arms in charge of steel in Anshan Materials Bureau. Through illegal means, she got 5000 tons of steel indicators, and Lao Tan sold them everywhere.
White wolf with empty gloves, illegally accumulating wealth and speculating in stocks, was caught by the police and sentenced to death. Lily is pregnant at this juncture, but she doesn't know whether the father of the child is Lao Tan or Fei Ya. She decided to have the baby.
She quickly found a underdog: Hua Gang. After they got married, they gave birth to a large group of mentally retarded children. Hua Gang found that the army was not his own and divorced Lily. She entrusted the army to Messi and prepared to go abroad to fight. Unexpectedly, when she turned around in the provincial capital, she met Feiya, and her life trajectory changed again. She gave up the opportunity to go abroad, helped Feiya to stock and became a business partner.
Mazhi reunited with Xiangzi. Seeing that her orphans and widows were living in a difficult life, Mazhi invested in opening a restaurant for her. My sister told her mother-in-law, Boss Xu, and Boss Xu took people to smash restaurants. That night, the wire in the hotel was broken, which caused a fire. Ma Zhimin was blind when he put out the fire, and my sister never left to take care of him.
Feiya failed in stock trading, owed huge debts and decided to escape with Lily. As a result, she was blocked by her enemy in a small hotel and slipped and died when she escaped.
Lily's father, Luo Guangping, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, fainted on the spot after watching TV news. On his deathbed, his memory came back. He thanked Boss Xu for his concern and tolerance and agreed to continue this unfinished marriage in his next life. He left Ma Zhimin the most precious legacy: cornea.
Macy and Lily came to their father's grave to offer flowers. Messi read deep remorse from Lily's eyes. Life punished her, but she turned back for a hundred years. Ma Zhimin received a corneal transplant and saw the light again in the affectionate melody of Looking Back.
