It tells a late-life love story that happened in an ordinary family in Shanghai.
Retired accountant Li Yiting and Xie Mingxuan, who had been widowed for eleven years, met through someone. She once closed her heart due to betrayal, and he still lives in the shadow of the legend of his late wife "Zheng Lijuan" - the woman who made great contributions to the relocation of Xie's family will always live in the family's memorial. Behind them stood their respective sons and the old mother of the Xie family who handed over financial power to her eldest daughter and directed the whole family to take care of her eldest son.
There is no bloody fight, only careful exploration and understanding of each other's pain. From the plants on the balcony, to the blank space on the right side of the drawing paper, to the two side-by-side porcelain cups, to the two times that Yi Ting sent the doctor to the hospital in time to save Ming Hua from cerebral infarction - she used her "keep an eye on" to win the approval of everyone in the Xie family.
Eleven years later, they have not received a certificate or lived together, but each has kept a key for the other. On the balcony, the golden-threaded elm that he has raised for twenty years is green, and two cups of new tea are steaming.
This is a story about letting go and acceptance: the real roof, not the house, is the first person to arrive when something happens to you.
