In the late 20th century in Qingdao, Shandong, the He and Luo families have been lifelong friends for many years. Years ago, Mr. He drowned while saving his friend Old Luo, leaving behind an orphaned son and a widowed mother without anyone to care for them. Today, Mama He (Ding Jiali) struggles to raise her two sons, Qiusheng (Zhou Xiaou) and Chunsheng (Tong Dawei), by selling steamed buns. In contrast, Old Luo enjoys a successful career and wealth, yet he never forgets the debt of gratitude he owes for the life-saving act, adhering to his promise to Old He to marry his daughter Xiaobei (Yu Mingjia) to Chunsheng. Xiaobei's brother, Shengli, looks down on the He's financial situation and, influenced by his own failed marriage, strongly opposes the union between the He and Luo families. The kind and straightforward Chunsheng can only respect Xiaobei's feelings, and they both strive for a better future. After many twists and trials, Xiaobei is finally touched by Chunsheng, whose status continues to rise, and their childhood engagement comes to fruition. However, marriage is ultimately not just about the couple; the underlying issues of family and social status create insurmountable gaps that constantly affect their mindset... This film is adapted from the original work of Lian Jian titled the same.
