In the late 1970s, in a small alley of a cotton spinning factory's residential area in Suzhou, lived the Zhuang and Lin families. As the college entrance examination resumed, Zhuang Chao Ying, a teacher, and his wife, Huang Ling, prioritized their children's exams as the family's top priority. Their neighbor, Lin Wu Feng, and his wife, Song Ying, also began to pay attention to their son's studies due to their influence.

The Zhuang family appeared harmonious and respectable, with their son Zhuang Tu Nan being diligent and studious, and their daughter Zhuang Xiao Ting being well-behaved and sensible. However, Zhuang Chao Ying's cowardice and foolish filial piety caused harm to his family. In contrast, the Lin family seemed to live according to their own rules, with their son Lin Dong Zhe being exceptionally mischievous.

In reality, the couple supported each other, and there was mutual respect between parents and children, creating a lively and fulfilling family atmosphere. Adapting to the changes of the times, Lin Wu Feng and Song Ying moved the whole family to Guangzhou to seek new opportunities.

Upon graduation, despite facing obstacles from family and reality, they firmly chose each other. After many twists and turns, Zhuang Tu Nan and Li Jia also eventually became a couple.
