Summary:
In an ancient dynasty, there was a man of humble beginnings and modern sensibilities who ventured to a county town to follow his father's professional steps as a low-ranking courthouse official. Ridiculed for his seemingly minor role, he channeled his frustration into a poetic gift for a shamed singer, an act that unexpectedly catapulted him into literary stardom and caught the eye of the local magistrate.
His ascent into the ranks of respected officials was speckled with ironies, not the least being his entanglement in a complex marital agreement that saw him simultaneously wedded to two different families — a martial officer's and a wealthy merchant's heir. Even a shift in time and space couldn't untangle this knot but only solidified his position as a double son-in-law, a predicament he temporarily navigated with a clever three-year contract.
Striving for independence, he threw himself into his work and was soon lauded as the creative jewel of a renowned cultural region, further advancing in his governmental position and building a formidable reputation in trade. His valiant stand against corruption and the dark dealings of the most powerful clans stamped his name throughout the land.
Yet, his increasing luster brought about unforeseen challenges as the ties that bound him to his two families grew stronger. With each achievement, the anticipation of what the end of that fateful three-year term would bring grew more palpable, creating interest and speculation about the ultimate resolution of his extraordinary entanglements.

After being beaten into a coma, he dreams of traveling back in time and becoming a low-level constable.

Eventually, two fathers offer him marriages to their daughters, leading to a complicated marital arrangement. As Li You rises in...
status and wealth, both wives fall in love with him, and he reciprocates their feelings equally. The drama features a relatively unknown cast, but the actors deliver convincing performances. While the script has some plot holes and unresolved storylines, the ending is satisfactory. "The Son-In-Law" may not appeal to viewers who prefer a traditional one-to-one romantic relationship, but its poetic nature and interesting plot make it worth watching.
