In the 90s, Hong Kong was a society that only respected clothes and did not respect people, Uncle Biao's (Dong Biao) family was a typical Hong Kong ordinary citizen, living in a public housing area, a family of five could only rely on Uncle Biao's meager income as a host in the TV station, and his wife (Shen Dianxia) was addicted to mahjong and lottery all day, and the three daughters, although not bad, did not make people worry, and quarreled all day long. Until one day they actually won the jackpot, but in order to be afraid of being borrowed by relatives and friends but did not dare to open, and strive to maintain the original living standards, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, frustrated eldest daughter boyfriend (Zeng Zhiwei) drunkenly gaffes to let the pig friends know about this matter, so they kidnapped the little daughter to threaten the ransom, but unfortunately at the same time, Uncle Biao's little brother's bank went bankrupt, and the bonuses they deposited in it were all in vain, in order to save the daughter had to go to borrow usurious loans, fortunately, the boyfriend suddenly found his conscience.

After this series of turmoil, Uncle Biao realized that simplicity is the truth of happiness, but suddenly received the news that the bank was reopening, and they had a huge amount of money, all of which indicated that this ordinary Hong Kong citizen family could not live an ordinary life.
The old Hong Kong drama still seems to have a lot of laughs, bringing no less enjoyment than the so-called "hilarious blockbuster" now. The biggest difference between feeling and new films in recent years is that the production of jokes comes from life, naturally and not deliberately. Today's comedy movie laughs mostly come from far-fetched connections and blunt spoofs, or a rhyming slip, which can make people laugh at the time, but after laughing, they feel weak.
The stories of the little people are full of ups and downs, and it is easier to resonate with their mentality in slightly exaggerated language, because these worries and joys are like happening around them. The characters in the play are also similar to most of the characters around us, there are small mistakes, but no major faults, annoying, but not hateful.
Although it is a story full of drama, it is very lifelike and filmed, which naturally allows the audience to watch it comfortably and laugh naturally.
