Su Ruojin is middle-aged and runs a small flower shop, but is exhausted from her family. Her husband Shen Shubai is a university professor, obsessed with academics but indifferent to family affairs; her daughter Shen Qingyue is in adolescence, and she is constantly in conflict with her mother as she is rebellious and yearns for a distant art school; her elderly mother-in-law suffers from Alzheimer's disease, sometimes sober and sometimes confused, and always thinks of Su Ruojin as her deceased daughter-in-law.
After a fierce quarrel, Shen Qingyue ran away from home. In the process of searching for her daughter, Su Ruojin accidentally discovered her husband's medical certificate hidden in the study - it turned out that he had already suffered from depression, but he was suffering alone. Before her condition worsened, her mother-in-law secretly knitted a scarf for Su Ruojin. There was a silent dependence hidden in the crooked stitches.
Facing the family crisis, Su Ruojin no longer endures silently. She took her mother-in-law everywhere to seek medical treatment, had long conversations with her husband, and began to learn to understand her daughter's dream. Shen Shubai gradually put aside his academic burden and took the initiative to share housework; Shen Qingyue also re-examined his willfulness after seeing the changes in his parents. In the trivial life of daily necessities, the family slowly learned to listen and be tolerant, and used love to re-weave the broken family ties into a warm brocade.
