In Shanghai in the 10th year of the Republic of China, the roses in the Su Family Mansion were in full bloom, just like the four young ladies in the mansion who were waiting for marriage. They each had their own splendor, but they all met their own special moments in the wind of the times.
The eldest sister Su Yanqiu was as calm as a pine tree, but her softness was broken by Commander Gu who was dressed in military uniform. The tough guy tempered in the smoke of gunpowder had his pride broken by her, and all the tenderness that could not be protected by a gun was given to her alone - "Yanqiu, I can't protect you in this troubled world, but I have to protect you even if I risk my life."
The second sister, Su Sili, is good at calculations and is a representative of Shanghai's new style of women. She is vigorous and resolute in her cadre position. She meets Shen Zhiyuan, a businessman who is good at calculations. One talks about the righteousness of family and country, and the other talks about weighing the pros and cons. Shopping malls and love scenes are all battlefields, but in repeated confrontations, they find that they have the same passion and responsibility hidden in each other's eyes. "Mr. Lu, can you sit down on the 48th?"
The third sister, Su Wanyin, studied abroad and was her father's right-hand man in business. However, at a party, she ran into the grandson of the princess who was kidnapping her fourth sister. The young master Gong Ciqian, who had returned from studying abroad, fell in love with her at first sight. He said: "Wanyin, others say we are a match made in heaven, but I can never catch up with you."
The fourth sister, Su Luoluo, is charming, naive and clinging to the young master of the Lin family, her family friend since she was a child. The friendship between childhood sweethearts has quietly sprouted over the years. He drove her across Xiafei Road on his bicycle and whispered in her ear: "Lolluo, I have wanted to marry you since I wore crotchless pants. I have been waiting for this for fifteen years."
Four love affairs, reflecting the neon lights and gunpowder smoke in Shanghai, hide the collision between the constraints of old-style ethics and new-school ideas. The four sisters of the Su family and their lovers, in the turbulent times, used their own methods to turn their courtship into a promise to stay together - love may have thousands of forms, but in the end it will all fall into one sentence: "We will stay together through thick and thin for the rest of our lives."
