Aunt Ma's original name was Ma Guihua. Her family had always been house slaves of a large family clan. However, when war broke out, the family they served was also scattered, and thus, everyone dispersed.
Ma Guihua's family had always been in charge of caring for children, producing several wet nurses, possessing skilled techniques and experience in child care. Therefore, even during the war years, their family did not face hardship but took care of children for the wives of some high officials.
After liberation, she had taken care of children for several leaders' families, and her life was considered good.
During the New Year, after Ma Guihua returned home, she found her cousin, who also took care of other people's children, unexpectedly wearing gold and silver. Upon asking, she learned that her cousin had joined a money-gathering scheme.
