In the early years of the Republic of China, Su Wenhui (played by Tong Liya), a student from a school in Jiangzhou, encounters family misfortune and becomes a maid for Liuxi's wealthiest man, "Baide Tang." The mistress of Baide Tang, Chu Nianqi, and her daughter Xueyun (played by Gao Ying) suffer from a terminal illness and plan to pass Baide Tang to Xueyun (played by Hai Lu). She conceals her condition while also guarding against her husband Chen Tianheng's (played by Zhao Wenxuan) greedy intentions towards their wealth. However, Xueyun, disillusioned by the closed and decayed family disputes within Baide Tang, vows to leave the big house in search of freedom and light. Amidst the crises within the big house, Xueyun and Wenhui lead maids Shao (played by Yu Jun), Li (played by Li Yue), and Ju (played by Yuan Shanshan) in a difficult rebellion, while life also teaches them self-respect and self-love. They come to understand that only knowledge can change their fate. Ultimately, through the efforts of Wenhui and others, Chu Nianqi realizes that the new era cannot be resisted. After she teams up with Wenhui to thwart Chen Tianheng's conspiracy, she hands Baide Tang over to her daughter. The freed maid finally breaks the feudal shackles that have bound Baide Tang for a century during the victory of the Northern Expedition, transforming it into a girls' school—Baide Female School.
