Introduction to the plot of "Mingmen Xinang":
The Cao family, although wealthy and considered a prominent family, has many internal conflicts and struggles unknown to outsiders. The second son of the Cao family, Cao Tianji, is kind-hearted and gentlemanly, but from childhood, he has been living in deep guilt, unable to extricate himself. This is because when he was a child, due to his mischief, he incited his elder brother to take him on a remote mountain hike, resulting in his elder brother Cao Tianyu contracting a serious illness during the trip that never healed, leaving regrets for years. For this reason, their mother, Xue Jianlan, has not forgiven Cao Tianji for many years, shedding tears every day.
In the process of growing up, Cao Tianyu has been tormented by illness, eventually losing his ability to have children and unable to marry, which is the greatest regret of the Cao family.
In order to compensate for the eldest son Cao Tianyu, who was despised by everyone, after repeated failures in matchmaking, the doting mother Xue Jianlan made an exchange condition with the eldest daughter of the Xiang family dyeing workshop, Xiang Xuexin. She arranged for the smart, beautiful, and scheming Xiang Xuexin to marry the eldest son Cao Tianyu unconditionally, while at the same time arranging for the second son Cao Tianji to marry Xiang Xuexin's younger sister, Xiang Xueling.
To make up for his guilt towards his elder brother and to let his mother eliminate her prejudice against him, Cao Tianji painfully left his girlfriend, Chen Muchun, and reluctantly accepted the marriage arranged entirely by his mother, going against his conscience and wishes.
Cao Jineng, the father of the Cao family, strongly disapproved of such a mercenary marriage. He tried hard to prevent Cao Tianji from making such a decision, but Cao Tianji did not listen. He insisted on treating his elder brother's lifelong happiness as the most important thing in his life, believing that as long as he sacrificed himself, he could bring a happy marriage to his elder brother.
However, Cao Tianji did not know that the bride he was supposed to marry, Xiang Xueling, was actually a severe mental patient! Xiang Xueling had a mental breakdown at the wedding, frightening everyone present with her violent behavior. Cao Jineng and other relatives repeatedly advised Cao Tianji to immediately dissolve the engagement with the Xiang family.
Unexpectedly, Cao Tianji not only refused to break off the engagement but also stayed with Xiang Xueling without reservation, adhering to the agreement between the Cao and Xiang families, respecting their marriage, and hoping that his wife would gradually recover under his careful care.
Cao Tianji's actions earned the praise of his mother-in-law Wei Shuxian, and his mother Xue Jianlan gradually changed her attitude towards him, believing that her son had already made the greatest sacrifice for his elder brother, which was quite rare.
On the other hand, after getting married, Xiang Xuexin looked down on Cao Tianyu, who could not perform his marital duties. She played both sides, secretly having an affair with her old lover, Zha Hetin, preparing to elope, and constantly deceiving Cao Tianyu, creating lies that disturbed the household and brought no peace.
Xue Jianlan accidentally learned that her daughter-in-law had an affair, which made her very angry, yet she could never find out who Xiang Xuexin's lover was. She could only worry secretly and regret having believed Xiang Xuexin so easily.
Both newlyweds of the Cao family are trapped in the sea of love. Cao Tianji deeply loves Xiang Xueling, but he can never win her heart because Xiang Xueling keeps thinking about her ex-husband, Song Dacheng.
Song Dacheng is the son of a military family. On the day he married Xiang Xueling, he tragically encountered revenge from his enemies, who mercilessly slaughtered the Song family. Although Xiang Xueling managed to escape, she suffered a great shock and became mentally unstable...
Song Dacheng was severely injured, and many people thought he had died in the massacre. However, three years later, Song Dacheng lost contact with Xiang Xueling, both believing the other had perished. Unexpectedly, Song Dacheng became a close friend of Cao Tianji, making their relationship even more intricate and subtle.
From then on, in this wealthy family, there were countless conflicts among parents and daughters-in-law, brothers and sisters, and friends. Kind hearts, misplaced love, sincere emotions, and false lies intertwined throughout the drama...
