Overview

Jiayun runs a stall in the market and often meets Sister Mei and other housewives at a nearby shrine, where they make desserts and discuss Taoism’s promise of eternal life for women. However, Jiayun cannot stay away for too long in fear of angering Ahai, her gambler husband with whom she has a tumultuous relationship. One day, Ahai accidentally beats Jiayun to death. To Ahai’s surprise, Jiayun comes back to life soon after and resumes her daily routine. However, her body begins to decay rapidly, causing Ahai to spiral into a state of panic.
