Unfortunately, Ma Yimao (played by Lin Yongjian), an average-looking man, was predicted by a fortune teller. Since his parents' generation, he has led a vagabominable life. In his early years, he did all kinds of decent or undecent jobs in Guangdong. Later, he finally settled down in a Shanghai alley, married a beautiful wife, Hu Gendi (played by He Saifei), and they have three children: Ma Ming, Ma Feng and Ma Ma. From the tenth year of the Cultural Revolution to the reform and opening up, the old Ma family has weathered many ups and downs. Perhaps inheriting the unstable genes of the Ma family, their children left home one after another when they grew up and ventured around the world. They come and go, experiencing the pain and baptism of both the soul and the body, seeking the true meaning of being human, seeking the most original happiness that belongs to themselves...
