Qiu Yingying endured a life of discrimination as a daughter-in-law in the Zhou family. She toiled alone preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, yet her mother-in-law found fault with her at every turn, simply because she had given birth to a daughter instead of a son. Her sister-in-law, Zhou Qing, on the other hand, received preferential treatment and was exempt from housework for having a son. The mother-in-law not only disparaged Qiu Yingying for not earning money but also criticized her unkempt appearance. Qiu Yingying finally snapped, realizing she was merely a nanny in the Zhou family, and in a fit of rage, she overturned the New Year's Eve dinner table.
