The Maid Under the Big House

In the early years of the Republic of China, Su Wenhui (played by Tong Liya), a student from a school in Jiangzhou, became a maid of the richest man in Linxi, "Baidetang" due to family changes. The mistress of Patek Hall, Chu Nianqi, and her daughter Xueyun (played by Gao Ying) are terminally ill, and they will pass Patek Hall to their daughter Xueyun (played by Hai Lu) in advance. She conceals her illness and has to beware of her husband Chen Tianheng (played by Zhao Wenxuan)'s coveting of property. However, because Xueyun couldn't stand the closed and decadent family struggles in Baidetang, she vowed to get out of the big house to find freedom and light. In this crisis-ridden big house, Xueyun and Hui led the maids Shao (played by Yu Jun), Li (played by Li Yue), and Ju (played by Yuan Shanshan) to start a difficult resistance. At the same time, life also taught them self-esteem and self-love. They understood that only knowledge can change their destiny. In the end, with the efforts of Hui and others, Chu Nianqi understood that the new era was irresistible, and after He Hui teamed up to smash Chen Tianheng's conspiracy, he handed Baidetang to his daughter. The maid who regained her freedom finally broke through the centuries-old feudal shackles that had fettered Baide Hall during the victory of the Northern Expedition and transformed it into a girls' school - Baide Girls' School.
