To worsen matters, Fang Fang has to take care of two younger siblings from two different mothers from her father's extramarital affairs and also run the small family business at the same time. Another of Fang Zhen's out-of-wedlock children Fang Xiang is sent to live with them. Adding to Fang Fang's woes, Fang Xiang is epileptic and has cancer.[1]
