Film Introduction
At six in the morning, the young mother Chao Yan and 4-year-old Chen Chen were reading the Analects. She felt that learning the wisdom of Confucius with her son brought their hearts closer. Chao Yan looks forward to driving her family to learn Confucian culture to make the family more beautiful, but she did not expect her efforts to push the family to the edge of marriage breakdown ... What kind of life growth will Chao Yan's confusion bring to her? What kind of revelation will the ancient wisdom of "harmony and difference" bring to this modern family?
