封建时代女性羁 closure 于社会、爱情 shackled by society, and love, an enigmatic forbidden fruit, remained a distant mirage throughout their lives. A soul's sanctity locked behind a chastity plaque, a symbol of sacrifice that spanned generations. The chastity towers of Jade Flower Brook, standing tall for centuries, bore witness to life's hardships and the struggles of human existence. Tragically, the fate of women, veiled in secrecy, remains largely unchanged throughout the ages.
In the modern era, the wine shop proprietor, Wu Lao Da ( portrayed by Li Wei), hides a dark secret, his growing obsession with his beautiful wife, Gui Hua (played by Zhu Yi). As Gui Hua demands a divorce, she encounters an unexpected resistance from the entire village. In the Qing Dynasty, a young girl named Qing Yu ( portrayed by Fu Yi Wei) finds herself bound by societal norms, unable to part from her husband. She enters the Chastity House, witnessing the selfless sacrifices of five aunties in pursuit of love. As she ponders her own destiny, she can only lament over the bitter irony of her life's circumstances.
