In the urban jungle of steel and concrete, architectural designer Lin Weiwan believes in "I have the final say on my site" and pursues precision, efficiency, and style in life. Until she married Shen Mo, a man with the same name and personality who always wanted to remain "silent" in the middle ground. Then came his mother, Ms. Zhang Ailan, a retired community director who could blow up a pressure cooker and firmly believed that "I am doing everything for your own good."
A sudden "health inspection" kicked off the "war" between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. From the "unhealthy" in the take-out box to the "old-fashioned" on the sofa cover; from the cosmic problem of "should I have children?" To the financial battle of the century "who should I give my salary card to?", Lin Weiwan's delicate life was turned upside down.
When an independent woman who believes that "distance creates beauty" meets a Chinese-style mother-in-law who firmly believes that "participation is love", a series of ridiculous family confrontations are staged one after another. The husband is silent, like a referee with the rope tied around his waist in a tug-of-war, swaying left and right, trying to maintain the fragile peace.
This is not a black and white battle, but a comedy of life full of smoke and ice. See how Lin Weiwan uses her "design thinking" to redefine the boundaries of her marriage and life in the busy daily life, and build a happy space that is not perfect but strong enough.
