- 35-episode comedy.
- In mid-May, there will be location filming in Kaiping for a month.
- Wayne Lai will play a eunuch who has an effeminate voice. After leaving the palace, he settles down in a village ruled by females.
- Nancy Wu will play Kam Heung (金香), the domineering and masculine head of the Kam household that sells rice. She is the third aunt. She and Wayne are married in name only. All of the men are afraid of her. Her actions are crude, and she is mean in her words and her appearance, frequently bullying eunuch Wayne. There is a scene where she and Wayne both accidentally take an aphrodisiac; when the drug takes effect, she sits on his back and takes off his clothes in a suburban area, fainting from a punch from him in the end.
- John Chiang really wants to have a son, but has three daughters (played by Lin Xia Wei, Toby Chan, and Grace Wong).

- Grace will play Kam Tai Tai (金帶弟), the third daughter of the Kam family. She has a refined appearance. She returns after completing her studies in Shanghai. She is experienced and knowledgeable. Although she studied English, she was focused on finding true love, so her English is a scam.

FYI: The official English title of this series is "Short End of the Stick".
FYI: Ada Choi was originally cast as the female lead; however, due to schedule problems, Nancy Wu has taken her place, while Lin Xia Wei has taken Nancy's original role.

Personal Note: Rice business again?!

Nancy's look reminds me of Chiu Yuk from "The Dance of Passion".

Lin Xia Wei always the last-minute replacement....

  1. I prefer the sales presentation story! I would like to see Raymond wong & Power chan there, I would like to see one of them pairing with Nancy! Too much rice business can't they change?

  2. "Yoyo Chen will play a feisty daughter-in-law of the Kam family." But If I understood, there are no sons in the Kam family, so will she pairing up with John Chiang? Thanks
