Funny and sweet, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law turn from rivals into best friends, watch how Northeastern Sister conquers the whole family.

Shen Zhi's comedy is not about trying to tickle you, but a natural reaction from the collision between her character and the Gu family environment. She didn't mean to be funny, she was just being herself - but in the Gu family environment, being herself is a funny thing.
Gu Yanqing's sweet pet is not forcing candy on you, but the gentleness that comes naturally from his character's interaction with Shen Zhi. He didn't mean to be sweet, he just loved her - but because he was usually too cold, the tenderness he showed occasionally seemed extra sweet.
The best comedy is the comedy of characters; the best sweet pet is the sweet pet of characters.
