If Truc's (Le Tam Trieu Dang) disappearance made Mrs. Mai (Thanh Hien) depressed and miserable, then for An (Yeye Nhat Ha), it was an unmissable opportunity for revenge that had been brewing for many years.
Behind the fake care and sweet words, An gradually made Mrs. Mai taste the bitterness. The climax of the plan was taking advantage of Mrs. Mai's unconsciousness, An stole all the property and jewelry that she had hidden, then pretended to be his mother's ghost to scare her.
Mrs. Mai, in a moment of fear and panic, dropped the oil lamp, causing the house to catch fire. An panicked and tried to put out the fire, but the dark memories of the years she and her mother had to live under Mrs. Mai's cruel and cruel treatment suddenly flooded her mind. Kindness could not overcome selfishness and hatred, so An let the house burn and only rescued Mrs. Mai.
Seeing her assets and property turn to ashes right before her eyes, Mrs. Mai was so shocked that she suffered a stroke and became paralyzed. In dire straits, with no strength to fight back, Mrs. Mai was now like a fish on a chopping board, allowing An to torment her.
The dilapidated hut where An and her mother used to live has now become Mrs. Mai's reluctant shelter. By forcing Mrs. Mai to wear the shirt Mrs. Huong used to wear and lie on the bed Mrs. Huong used to sleep in, An wants her to feel all the pain and humiliation that she and her mother had to endure.
Alone in a dilapidated hut with no one to take care of her, and haunted by the thought of Mrs. Huong (Van Phuong), Mrs. Mai now realized that she was being punished. However, she did not feel remorse or guilt, but only regretted that if she had been cruel enough to "kill the weeds by the roots" and force Huong to have an abortion, she would not have suffered the consequences she is facing today.
Mrs. Mai's pitiful cry for help reached Truc's ears in her dream. Truc was filled with anxiety and worry for her mother, but she still couldn't remember anything except vague, jumbled fragments of memories in her head.
