夜幕降临时分，曾大伟和当地的官员开完会之后，让人开了几辆车带着一帮兄弟驶向海边。他兴奋地挥舞着肥厚的一双手。踌躇满志地指着广袤的一片红树林说：“兄弟们，把这些红树林砍掉后。哥哥就能呼风唤雨了，到时候少不了你们的好处！”兄弟们一听，仿佛看到了金山银山，立即欢呼起来。
就在这时，从林子里忽然钻出一个大肚子的女人来，她瞪着眼睛狠狠骂道：“天都黑了，你们就不能消停点，我们还要睡觉呢！”曾大伟转过头。借着淡淡的月光看到是个满面风霜的老妇。他顿时尖酸地讽刺道：“哟，这么大的年纪了。就算是露宿海边还要生。估计是想了一辈子的儿子吧！”这妇人一听。不置可否地笑笑，意味深长地说：“随你怎么说，老天自有公道！”
听这话，这老妇人自是不敢惹曾大伟。曾大伟在兄弟们的劝说下。骂骂咧咧地离开了海边。汽车刚上路不久，曾大伟突然感觉腹痛难忍，途中一连几次下车解决腹泻。不一会，快要虚脱的他又嚷着浑身发冷。兄弟们一摸，发现他肌肤滚烫，急忙把他这个“财神爷”送进了医院。
医生检查后。说曾大伟是痢疾发烧，挂上药水就能控制住。可一连过了两天，他的体温都还没有降下来，反倒陷入了昏迷中。这一来，可把闻讯赶来的曾母吓坏了。
这天，眼见又到了下午，曾大伟仍然未醒，曾母焦虑不已。她在病房内踱来踱去，猛地听到曾大伟在病床上嘟囔着：“妈，妈，红树林，果实榨油。救我……”曾母心里一惊。一下子想起了浑身是宝的红树林。随即，她急忙离开医院打车到了海边。
这个时候，天色已经黑尽。曾母在红树林里寻寻觅觅，想找一些大个的果实。她以前就听人说过。红树林的果实榨出的油恰好能治疗痢疾发烧的患者。就在这时，她隐约看到林中似乎蜷缩着一个人。不禁吓了一跳后退了几步。
林中的人影虚弱地爬了出来，艰难地站起来后。喘着气伸出手对曾母说：“我知道你是为儿子而来，我们同样为人母，我懂你的心情。你把这几颗果实拿回去榨油救他吧，但是，如果他以后还要打这片红树林的主意。他将继续陷入昏迷！”
曾母看清了，面前是个陌生的老妇人。对老妇人危言耸听的话，她感到奇怪，也隐隐有些不安。此前，她知道儿子曾大伟为了暴利。勾结官员拿到了林木采伐证。打算在这里砍伐红树林后修建什么项目。而这些红树林一旦被砍伐，这一带的生态将会受到严重影响。对于儿子的所作所为，曾母是极力反对的，她琢磨着。眼下这个机会，应该可以劝住儿子了。
曾母战战兢兢地接过那老妇递来的果实，确信这是上好的果子，向老妇连番感谢后，很快又沿路返回医院了。当曾母将榨出的果实油滴进曾大伟的嘴里后，曾大伟不久就醒了过来。当晚，他的体温就恢复了正常。曾母很惊讶，因为听人说服用了这个果油，最快也要第二天才能退烧的。那么，在红树林中偶遇的老妇人。她到底是什么人呢？曾母百思不得其解，她抚摸着曾大伟的额头。语重心长地将海边那位神奇老妇人的事说了一遍。哪知，曾大伟一听，顿时又来了劲。大骂道：“那寒酸老太婆的心思我知道，她是怕我砍掉了红树林她就没地方住了。她这个唬人的方法是不是太小儿科了！”曾母见他不知好歹，也担心他真的继续昏迷。便虎着脸喝道：“你这次要是不听妈的话。我就去找曾氏的族长！”曾大伟长这么大。从来就不怕母亲。但对族里的长辈却很顾忌。于是，只好乖乖躺在床上。
第二天。曾大伟趁母亲还在熟睡的时候，偷偷带领几个弟兄，赶到了海边的红树林。他怒气冲冲地提着汽油桶，恶狠狠地向红树林的枝干淋过去。丛林中还有一个简易的帐篷，曾大伟咬牙切齿地说：“让你这可恶的老太婆在这里住，一把火烧了清净！”为了解恨，他亲自一桶一桶地淋着汽油。直到他累得浑身是汗才停下。
就在手下递来打火机。等待曾大伟点燃红树林中那个简易帐篷的时候。远远地传来了曾母声嘶力竭的声音：“大伟，不能烧，那是我的家啊！！”曾大伟愣愣地看着母亲跌跌撞撞地冲了过来。才知道母亲被自己赶出门之后，为了不让当地人知道他的不孝，曾母只能乔装躲到这没有人烟的海边，搭了个简易棚子暂时栖身。
愕然的曾大伟有些不知所措，他从没想到母亲过得如此凄苦。他张了张嘴，刚想说些什么，忽然，树林中发出了一些奇怪的炸裂声。曾大伟和曾母循声找去，他们通过电筒的光线看见了神奇的一幕：红树林母树的树身正在裂开，体内无比饱满的果实也在怦然炸开——孕育多日的子树轻盈跃出，在清澈的月光下闪着让人震撼的光芒！曾大伟的心里此刻有种说不出的感觉，这才明白，红树林的繁衍方式在陆生植物中极其罕见，是胎生的植物：母树会把最后的养分全部注入果实，并用自己生命的终结，来庄严宣告子树的诞生！
曾母讶异地望着母树的残枝，忽然喃喃地对曾大伟说：“原来，救你命的那几个果子，就是她给我的！”说着，曾母重重地跪在地上，伸手想去将母树残破的肢体保护起来。
这一幕，终于彻底惊醒了曾大伟。他狠狠地扇了自己几巴掌，大骂自己不是人。接着，他又让手下立即找来水桶，拎着海水一桶一桶地浇在红树林的枝干上。他要把那些汽油——不，那些贪念全都稀释掉——红树林的母爱提醒并感动了曾大伟。他噗通一声跪在地上，抱着母亲止不住大哭起来。这一刻，他庆幸着自己还能拥着母亲。
这时。曾母手中的红树林母树全都化为灰烬。一阵风吹来，曾母恍惚看见，灰烬聚在一起，逐渐成了那名老妇人的影子。同时，也听到了她隐隐约约地说：“谢谢你，保护了我的孩子们……”曾母悲从中来，止不住大声说道：“是我要感谢您，不仅救了我儿子，也让他迷途知返，还保护着这里千千万万个老百姓……”
