Mei-Hua and Zui-Pin are worshipping the Earth-God, hoping that this will help them run their business. But still, they face problems when another troupe is stealing appointments from them. As a result of the troubles they face Mei-Hua gets possessed by a spirit "The Golden Mother", who is coming to solve their problems. A film about Chinese Folk religion in Taiwan.
