He Xingfu married into the Wang family of Wanjiazhuang. On the day of the wedding, the guests were mixed, and the ceremony did not start, saying that he had to wait for Secretary Wan. He Xingfu’s sister, He Luck, was not satisfied with this brother-in-law, thinking that his sister was wronged and married the useless Wang Qinglai, but He Xingfu was very open-minded.

Her boyfriend also gave her a pendant, and her sister was happy to see that her sister was doing well. To her, her sister had gone to college and could live a better life.

Unexpectedly, the male and female protagonists of the wedding were all upstaged by Secretary Wan who arrived late. He Xingfu’s parents-in-law were respectful to Secretary Wan, and even asked the little couple to give the secretary a big gift. This book was not in line, but the guests present were heckled repeatedly.

Secretary Wan was respected because he was the benefactor of Wanjiazhuang. Those who went to the mountains to quarry with him in the early years became rich, and the Wang family was also a beneficiary. The people of Wanjiazhuang were very realistic and knew the benefits of money, and they did not give up all opportunities to be grateful.

He was domineering and boasted that as long as the Wanjia Group was there, the people of Wanjiazhuang could live with a head and face. He was lucky at the wedding, but when he heard that the female college student had a high heart, he tried to rape He Lucky under the pretext of "making fun of her".

Wang Qingzhi saw He Lucky being bullied with his own eyes, but he didn’t dare to go forward and ask for help from his brother, but these people were a little hesitant about their faces. In the end, He Xingfu heard the noise and kicked the door to save his sister.

When the elders of the Wang family saw He Lucky, who was disheveled, not only did they not comfort him, but instead emphasized that "Wan Family is here to make fun of him." When He Xingfu claimed to use the law to protect his sister, the whole family opposed it. Her mother-in-law thought that Wan Chuan Family’s attempted rape was even with her smashing her head, but He Xingfu couldn’t swallow this breath.

Overnight, the Wang family became a joke in the Wanjiazhuang, and no one sought justice for He Lucky, nor did anyone help the Wang family stand up. In the Wanjiazhuang, "Wang" is a minor surname, and there are no backers who speak lightly, so it is natural to be bullied. The neighbors are happy to talk about the Wang family bowing their heads with gifts to make amends, because in the eyes of the common people in the village, what the Wanjiazhuang family does is right.

The elders of the Wang family knelt down as soon as they saw Secretary Wan, saying that the new daughter-in-law was a stranger who was not sensible. Secretary Wan told them to "discipline" this powerful daughter-in-law well, otherwise they would not have a good life in the future.

He Xingfu wanted to cook, but Wang Qinglai looked anxious and told her to hurry up and go back to her mother’s house, otherwise the police would come to arrest her if something happened to the Wan Chuan family. He Xingfu was not afraid of things, she thought that if she wanted to catch it, she would catch it. Later, when she met a long-tongued woman in the village, she would directly go forward and explain that, after coming and going, Wan Jiazhuang knew that she was a powerful master.

She saw Wan’s family who had three stitches on their head in the village health center. Fortunately, nothing major happened, and everyone was relieved that they could finally get together for a reunion dinner. The Wang family asked Wang Qinglai to take He Xingfu to find Secretary Wan to apologize, but Xingfu was very worried. Her sister was greatly affected by this matter, and even her boyfriend, who had been talking for a long time, had to blow up.

Although she was submissive on the surface, the happy mother-in-law thought that such a daughter-in-law was not bad, and she would suffer less losses in the future if she dared to speak up and stand out. Secretary Wan also taught Wan’s heirloom family to do hooligan things at home, but this scum in his thirties also has various social relationships outside, and has long been out of the hands of his own father.

The next day, the Wang family and the young couple came to visit, and Happy apologized for the beating on the spot. Secretary Wan felt that the matter had been turned over, but Happy immediately wanted to seek justice for her sister. She couldn’t figure it out, so she had to ask Wan Chuan to apologize before giving up. This request angered Secretary Wan, and he saw with his own eyes how powerful Happiness was.

Her mother-in-law told her that it was not so easy to distinguish between black and white in this world, and she was not used to it when she first married into the Wang family, but the Wang family was a small family, and it would not be better if she insisted on fighting the Wan family. Happiness knew that her mother-in-law was reasonable but also accepted her fate, but if she wanted to pretend to be confused, it would be absolutely useless.

After all, it is an adaptation of "The Legend of Qiu Ju", and watching "Happiness to Wanjia" can always find the shadow of "Qiu Ju Lawsuit". Zhao Liying’s play of He Xingfu is similar to Gong Li’s play of Qiu Ju, who is a shaft woman whose bones will not be soft, but such people are rare game-breakers. The act of "admitting death" will make them stand on the opposite side of the power system and make hidden power relations visible.

He had always emphasized the so-called "neighborhood harmony and unity", which was essentially to rationalize the exploitation of the weak. All the people trapped in it had learned the "victim guilt theory". Those who were bullied not only could not avenge justice, but also bowed their heads and behaved like human beings.

So far, "Happiness to a Thousand Families" has shown all the elements of a good drama. First of all, the characters are refined and representative, such as those who stay in the village to live and eat, those who study well and get into college or graduate school, and those who do all kinds of evil because of their power… These people have different values and styles, and they are all very interesting.

Furthermore, the narrative of this play is clear, and the plot is reasonable. Zhao Liying’s appearance is exquisite, but it is not so suitable for playing a woman married to the village. If the performance is not open enough, it will be embarrassing, but this time the audience will be pleasantly surprised to find that Zhao Liying’s anger and straightforwardness are quite convincing. The smaller the skeleton, the greater the energy.

Except for He Xingfu, the other characters are struggling with perfection and patience, and all the yin and yang theories that accuse injustice are expressed with the help of lines, which become more explicit and ironic. He Xingfu is not a person with great wisdom. In the eyes of most people, she is stupid and does not understand roundabout people, but we know that she is actually a real normal person, and the kind of normal person that Chinese society lacks the most.

In general, "Happiness to a Thousand Families" can be regarded as a heroine drama, but this heroine is not another heroine. He Xingfu is not the kind of smart woman who understands the rules and plays with them. She will not win in the secular sense in the end.
