Curator note

Ye Xilei, a post-80s daughter-in-law, is beautiful, intelligent, lazy, and vain. She has never been able to adapt to her role as a daughter-in-law when facing her mother-in-law. Fang Qiaozhen, a mother-in-law born in the 1950s, is a combination of virtuousness and diligence with eccentricities and oddities. As a mother-in-law, she cannot maintain a proper balance. Xu Bin, a son born in the 1980s, wavered between his beloved wife and his caring mother, weighing love and family ties, ultimately losing his love and destroying his own marriage. The work breaks away from the conventional writing style of marriage and family dramas. It does not blindly criticize the mother-in-law, nor does it defend the daughter-in-law. Instead, it uses real-life examples to peel back the layers and analyze the potential reasons why the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law leads to the demise of the marriage. It also shows Xi Lei's growth process in a failed marriage.
