Keeping True in a Fishing Village
Reborn on the day his family divides its property, Niu Bayi—worn down and ill from overwork—receives only a broken boat. Disheartened, he chooses to live independently. He unexpectedly gains a pocket space and plans to make a living by fishing; his childhood friend He Zhenzhen actively lends him her family's fishing boat to help. Her parents disapprove, and soon a heavy storm at sea causes losses for many fishermen. He Zhenzhen waits anxiously at the pier, hoping only for his safe return. When the storm subsides, Niu Bayi returns safely with a full catch, and the two work together toward a stable life.
