New bride Chunxing marries into the Zhou family. Facing her sharp-tongued yet soft-hearted mother-in-law Sun Guizhi and neighbors looking to take advantage everywhere, she initially enters the house wearing patched clothes and empty-handed, extremely cautious and accommodating everywhere for fear of making a single mistake and giving others something to gossip about. From her mother-in-law spraining her wrist and her brother-in-law's matchmaking farce to neighbors scheming over labor exchanges, amidst wave after wave of domestic friction, Sun Guizhi sees through the warmth and coldness of human relationships and steadfastly stands by her daughter-in-law's side to support and protect her. Chunxing also gradually establishes boundaries in their relationship, resists excessive emotional kidnapping, and rejects unreasonable demands from outsiders. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law go from friction and collisions to mutual understanding. Chunxing finally takes over household management, living a steady and comfortable life, and family affection returns.
