Shen Meng Jun (Grace Gua) is a cranky old granny with a terrible temper. Aside from the housekeeper (Wang De Shun), nobody likes her at all and her daughter-in-law (Li Yi Juan) even gets hospitalized after falling sick from living under the same roof with her. Her family unanimously decides to send her to the home for the aged. On the way, she passes by a photography studio hoping to take one last picture.
