Xia Wanqing, a daughter of a wealthy family, married Shen Lang, a working-class man, with all her elegance. She regards her mother-in-law Li Xiulan's seemingly strict rules as a provocation and suppression of her identity. The collision of living habits and misunderstandings between words put Xia Wanqing into a dilemma of whether to stand up and defend herself, or to compromise and maintain her marriage. However, when career crisis and pressure from her native family hit, Xia Wanqing unexpectedly discovered that her mother-in-law, whom she had always regarded as her "enemy", was the one who silently withstood the wind and rain for her and gave her the most solid support in a clumsy way. Faced with an external crisis that attempts to destroy family harmony, Xia Wanqing must make the final choice: continue to stick to her prejudices, or choose to trust her mother-in-law and join hands to protect their common home. In the end, Xia Wanqing understood the love hidden behind the harshness. She and her mother-in-law reached a profound reconciliation after many misunderstandings, and understood that real family members express their care through actions rather than words.
