Show Synopsis
During the Jia-jing Era of the Ming Dynasty, factions close to devious Prime Minister Yan Song monopolised power. Tired of the internal power struggle, Yang Ji-kang announced his plan to quit officialdom during his birthday celebration. His daughters and son-in-laws came to bestow him with expensive gifts and offers of residency. Only his third daughter Yang San-chun and her poor husband came empty-handed. Madame Yang despised them and drove them away when a family feud flared. Yang Ji-kang, implicated in the power struggle in court, was stripped of his official titles and turned to his daughters for shelter. Only San-chun was willing to take care of them. Her husband passed the Imperial Examination and redressed the injustice suffered by Yang Ji-kang who was reinstated to his previous ministerial post. The family, minus the unfilial members, celebrated his wife’s 60th birthday with much joy.
