Shang You Lao Xia You Xiao (2024)

Family struggle

I thought this was a good drama. You get to see up close and personal with a couple in their mid-30s. Living in a small two bedroom home. The once loving adorable couple are faced with parents and a brother who move in. This leads to no privacy and who's in charge. We see the struggles that both have on their job. I like that even with all the struggles and havoc around this couple still tries to hold it together and get time away that they need. The most important thing to see is when boundaries are not set early on it's hard to get anything accomplished. Taking care of your immediate family, while still loving and making sure that your parents are good. Although 40 episodes the episodes are short. One of those dramas either you like it or you don't.

Bad plot and bad acting. Don't waste your time with it.

Family is a melodrama about a married couple whose lives were entwined and interrupted by the interference of in-laws. After 9 episodes, I do not have the patience to continue with the drama. All the bickering and interference of the in-laws were annoying. It could be the culture still exists in China, but who now, at this stage and age, still have parents interfere in their lives? They should speak up instead of letting their parents dictate their lives. They are not young either; it is a ridiculous plot.

Synopsis: After years of hard work, Gu Xiao Meng, an excellent high school teacher, and her designer husband, Lv Xiang, finally bought their own small house, but they also welcomed Lv Xiang's parents who came to Beijing for medical treatment in the name of vacation. At the same time, Gu Xiao Meng's mother, Liu Meiqin, and younger brother, Gu Xiao Song, who were in constant trouble, also came from Suzhou. The intermediary repeatedly fooled Gu Xiao Song into going abroad, so he sold his house in his hometown and threw Liu Mei Qin to Gu Xiao Meng. Three old people joined this family; when the family was in a mess, Gu Xiao Meng learned that she was pregnant, so the couple began a tortuous life with these old people and their child. Although there are all kinds of troubles in life and career, the determination to protect love and home gives this couple courage. They work tirelessly and strive for their ideal life.

My Reviews:
1. It is a ridiculous plot, so why bother making it?
2. Bad acting from ML and FL.
3. It was too noisy, and there was too much bickering between the in-laws, which was annoying.

I found the plot ridiculous. I am dropping it because I don't want to waste my time with it. I give it a 4.5 rating.
