In this island child-raising story with an anti-trope twist, Ning Tang transmigrates into a novel as a stepmother on a remote island. Initially mistreating her stepchildren, Ning Tang embraces her lazy stepmother role and demands payment from the children in exchange for food. Meanwhile, her cousin, Ning Xue, provides for her stepchildren diligently. Ning Tang begins to appreciate her laid-back lifestyle and refuses dangerous adventures suggested by her sister-in-law's husband. As time passes, the ungrateful stepsons of Ning Xue contrast with the successful and grateful children Ning Tang raised. Ultimately, the children acknowledge Ning Tang as their real mother, leading to humorous chaos among military families on the island.
