Hing-shing (Mak Bing-wing), the son for the richest man in the village, has fallen head over heels for Lin-ying (Fung Wong Nui), and he refuses to marry anyone but her. The problem? His parents and Lin-ying's mother (Tam Lan-hing) happen to be enemies. When the rivalry threatens to derail Hing-shing and Lin-ying's marriage plans, it's up to Hing-shing's slacker uncle Sei-hoi (Leung Sing-po) to save the day and bring the families back together. Bringing their comedic A game to the table, the talented cast injects a dose of high spirits to this seemingly ordinary story. One of the greatest comedic actors of his generation, Leung Sing-po is especially hysterical as he puts his impeccable improvisational style on full display .
