In the era when men were inferior to women, the ancestral hall was also a forbidden place for women. And our story about the ancestral hall revolves around a woman who begins, develops, and eventually ends in an unpredictable end. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestral ancestral hall of the Linyuan Xie family in Huizhou Mansion symbolized the unity of the clan and the harmony of brothers. Sun Xie Zhiqing, the former Xie family, and Sun Xie Zhicheng, the former Xie family, held a wedding ceremony in the ancestral hall together, and the ancestral door suddenly collapsed in the noise and injured the former Xie Zhiqing, casting an ominous shadow on the hearts of the two Xie people. Zheng Xiuyun, the daughter of the troupe owner Zheng Zhimeng, has been a childhood sweetheart with Xie Zhiqing since she was a child, but she married Xie Zhiqing by mistake. Soon after the newlywed, Zhiqing and Zhicheng went out to do business together, and Xiuyun began the long and lonely wait of Huizhou women for "three and a half years as a husband and wife". The former Xie represented by Xiuyun's father-in-law Xiucai, and the Hou Xie, who is headed by the third master, have been fighting openly and secretly for the power of the ancestral hall. Xiucai tried repeatedly, so he poured all the hopes of Yaozu Guangzong into the youngest son Zhixiang, who was regarded as a prodigy by his neighbors. Although the third master Xie himself has three sons, he still regards the head of the long house, Sun Xie Zhicheng, as a pillar and cultivates him with all his might. The battle of the second Xie gradually became clear with the middle move of Xie Gefei, the third eldest of the third master of the third master of the Hou Xie family, and the former Xie Xiucai invited Xiuyun's father Shan Zhimeng to mediate, and Shan Zhimeng took out his new persuasion drama text, hoping to resolve the conflict between the two Xie with a big performance, but Xiuyun's sister-in-law Yufen eloped with the troupe during the performance. In ordinary life, Xiuyun, a village girl, encountered extraordinary life tests, and the burden of running the family fell prematurely on Xiuyun, who was only in her early twenties; Uncle Zhixiang has developed an extreme dependence on her in life because of illness; The recovered Yufen was sentenced to the punishment of "Shenjiang" for violating the clan rules; Her husband Zhiqing has been out for eight years, but when he returned home, he brought back a beautiful concubine and a son who could walk; To the middle of the picture; Xiucai lost his madness; Yufen disguised herself as a man and entered the troupe; But Zhiqing encountered an accident when his business was at its proudest; …… As the years passed, the Rangtang ushered in a ceremony of farewell and blessing under the auspices of the two Xie in turn, accepting one after another Xie clan people who had completed their life journey either gloriously or plainly, and at the same time, the women who were blocked out of the ancestral hall also spent their youthful and plump appearance in silent waiting, hard work and wordless prayers, and boiled white wisps of green silk. Twenty years have passed by in a snap of a finger, and the old Xiucai father-in-law has devoted more than ten years of painstaking efforts to revise the genealogy of the Xie family has finally been completed, and the former Xie family is overjoyed, but the third master who is over 70 years old has gathered up after the Xie people have criticized the new genealogy, vowing to make all the unresolved doubts in the history of the Xie family come together. The two Xie Zheng were fighting for this, and Zhicheng, who was already a wealthy businessman, came back from outside and told the villagers that King Li Chuang had entered Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen was martyred, and the Manchurian iron horse had stepped into Shanhaiguan. The villagers who had never been far away in their lives were worried about the future of the country, and at this time, the prime minister who died on the northern front line eight years ago suddenly came back from the dead and appeared in front of Xiuyun. After the joy and excitement, the Xie family learned that Zhixiang had become the prefect of Huizhou appointed by the Manchus, and brought back the first decree of the Manchus: shaving their hair. The bloody descendants of the two Xie want to kill each other and eliminate the rebellion, and the third master and Xiucai are in a dilemma for the safety and survival of the Xie family. An unprecedented grand festival became the saddest confession of the Xie family to their ancestors, and a sky-high fire burned down the foundation laid by the two Xie ancestor brothers, sending away an era of loyalty and simplicity, and also buried a historical truth that was gradually rewritten for future generations. The story is not over here, Xiuyun buried his father-in-law, and suddenly got the Qing Dynasty emperor's watch, which is of course the result of Zhixiang's efforts, Xiuyun received the order to thank him, entrusted several children to Zhicheng, and made a covenant with him for the next life, and then went to Fucheng alone, to see Zhixiang...... Individuals, families, clans, and nations, desires, morality, honor and disgrace, love and hatred, and life and death.
