黃醫生經營一家西醫診所，一日隔壁搬來陳姓夫婦經營中醫診所。起初，大家禮尚往來相安無事，兩家的年輕人也都看對了眼。直到陳太太到黃西醫診所提親，爆發了一連串本省外省、語言習慣、中西醫術的正面衝突。本片是李行早期的作品，當時台語喜劇片盛行，片中充滿國台語雞同鴨講的諧趣，亦描述李行一向著重的親情倫理，並透露出日後健康寫實影片的氣味。

Dr. Huang runs a clinic. One day, Mr. Chen moves to next door and opens a Chinese medicine clinic. In the beginning, the two families get along fine and Chen’s son and Huang’s daughter like each other. But when Mrs. Chen proposes the marriage to Dr. Huang, the conflicts between the families explode.
