Synopsis

Everyone grows old eventually. When you grow old, how will you get along with your children? Have you ever truly considered it? Old Man Ding spent his entire life mediating conflicts in other people's families. He was the backbone of the whole village, yet he neglected his own family. Now that he is old, he must start from scratch and learn how to get along with his children. Times are changing, and the older generation is at a loss! You have seen more than enough elderly people who are shrewd, calculating, and always stirring up trouble. Every now and then, you can change things up and experience how a reasonable, understanding old man brings the five children in his family together again.
