Episode 33 recap: Xie Yang and Zhang Pei's first kiss.
Gou Dan Dan's manager directly leaned against the window, staring at Gou Dan Dan. Gou Dan Dan anticipated such a scene and sure enough, the manager came up and started scolding her. The manager genuinely worries about Dan Dan's future development. Dan Dan expresses that she doesn't intend to manage this account anymore, and the manager doesn't say anything further. Instead, the manager silently takes out a red envelope prepared for the child. Dan Dan jokes that the red envelope is a bit thin. Afterwards, Dan Dan goes to cook for her, and the manager happily goes to play with the baby.
On Zhang Pei's side, she finds You You Jie. Zhang Pei says that based on the insurance they had before, they can now loan five million to her husband to solve their financial crisis. You You Jie realizes how useful insurance can be and reminds Zhang Pei to return to Beijing as soon as possible. She truly can't be without Zhang Pei anymore. Zhang Pei says she will follow her boss's arrangements.
Wu Yun goes to take care of Liu Wen Shan, but Liu Wen Shan isn't very happy. Wu Yun tries to comfort Liu Wen Shan's emotions, but Liu Wen Shan doesn't react at all. Wu Yun mentions that other patients have family members accompanying them, but Liu Wen Shan says that Wu Yun isn't her family. Wu Yun is stunned but quickly understands that Liu Wen Shan is in a bad mood and doesn't take it to heart. However, Liu Wen Shan becomes even angrier and starts a fight, demanding that Wu Yun break up with her. Wu Yun is at a loss, and conveniently, a nurse comes to administer medication to Liu Wen Shan. Wu Yun quickly leaves the room.
After leaving the ward, Wu Yun receives a call from her father. It turns out that today is Wu Yun's lunar birthday. Tears well up in Wu Yun's eyes, but she doesn't dare to say much to her father and quickly hangs up the phone. She then leaves the hospital. On Zhang Pei's side, another meeting takes place. Everyone is fully committed to cooperating with the major client, and this is a crucial battle for returning to Beijing. If they can successfully secure it, their annual performance will be assured.
In the evening, the sisters gather at Wu Yun's place to celebrate her birthday. Wu Yun is happy, but Liu Wen Shan's situation still weighs on her mind. When making a wish, Wu Yun unexpectedly wishes to be successfully elected as a village cadre. Dong Jia Xi and Zhang Pei advise Wu Yun to be cautious upon hearing this because once the candles are blown out, the wish will come true. However, Wu Yun insists that she has thought it over and they don't stop her.
When Wu Yun is alone in her room, she can't help but cry. When she hears Dan Dan coming over, she quickly pretends to be searching for something. However, Gou Dan Dan can clearly tell that something is wrong. Seeing Wu Yun crying, Gou Dan Dan becomes even more concerned about what happened. Wu Yun says that she can't find her little panda stuffed toy.
After learning about it, Gou Dan Dan asked Wu Yun if her plan to become a village cadre had anything to do with the situation. Wu Yun firmly stated that it wasn't solely because of that, but also because she wanted to realize her own value. Gou Dan Dan didn't say anything further. Gou Dan Dan went out, hesitated at the entrance of Qi Tea House, and unexpectedly, the staff of the tea house called her. After exchanging a few pleasantries, just as Gou Dan Dan was about to leave, Qi Pu approached and invited her to come inside.
Gou Dan Dan, who finally got to eat at Qi Pu's place again, didn't hesitate to praise the food. Qi Pu said she could come anytime she wanted and mentioned her plans to turn Qi Tea House into a restaurant. She wanted to re-operate her food-related social media account and hoped that Dan Dan could help her. As Gou Dan Dan watched the food review videos Qi Pu had filmed herself, she started giving her pointers.
Gou Dan Dan planned to go home with Wu Yun, but Wu Yun was called away by an older lady. Wu Yun listened quietly as the lady talked about her youth. Someone said that the rescue team's Liu Ge was looking for her. Just as Wu Yun didn't know what to do, Dan Dan unexpectedly arrived. Dan Dan chatted with the older lady and even offered to do her makeup. Wu Yun took the opportunity to go find Liu Ge. As Wu Yun had anticipated, Liu Ge did indeed want to talk about something related to Liu Wen Shan. It turned out that Liu Ge had also mentioned breaking up with his girlfriend due to the injuries he sustained during the rescue. Wu Yun was speechless, but later everyone had a taste of Liu Ge's wedding candy!
Xie Yang waited for Zhang Pei at the company's entrance. Then Xie Yang took Zhang Pei back to their former school. Xie Yang even tricked Zhang Pei into climbing over the wall while Xie Yang entered through the main gate. The two returned to their old classroom and reminisced about their past. They also spent a long time at the playground. Eventually, it got dark, and both of them knew that Zhang Pei would soon be returning to Beijing. Zhang Pei suddenly stood in front of Xie Yang and expressed that she hadn't really taken a good look at Xie Yang since she came back. Xie Yang stood quietly, allowing Zhang Pei to observe. Embarrassed, Zhang Pei ran away.
Xie Yang asked if the impulse that was missing before was now present, but Zhang Pei didn't say anything. Sensing the situation, Xie Yang wisely kept quiet. However, Zhang Pei admitted that she did have the impulse. Just as they were about to kiss, a security guard unexpectedly showed up! After running out of the school gate, the two finally kissed. Zhang Pei then expressed her desire to go home.
The two held hands and returned to Zhang Pei's home, but they were unexpectedly seen by Zhang Pei's parents. Zhang Pei was nervous, and Xie Yang ran away. However, Zhang Pei's parents didn't ask anything. It turned out they were afraid that Zhang Pei wouldn't come back after returning to Beijing!
Nowadays, people are choosing not to marry or have children, and their parents are getting anxious and frustrated about it. Does it really make a big difference compared to Dong Qi's mother?
Many parents nowadays stay up all night, unable to sleep, crying and pleading with their children to get married and have children. Can't we show them a little sympathy, even if it's just with one eye open?
Although the two situations are different, the worries of parents are the same.
Dan Dan discovered that her boyfriend was cheating on her, and the person he cheated with was Meng Ting, a young colleague at the company. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to Dan Dan.
She had once thought of entrusting her project module to Meng Ting at work, but now she found out that her boyfriend had been lured away by Meng Ting.
It was ironic.
Firstly, this behavior indicates her boyfriend's disloyalty and lack of respect. He betrayed Dan Dan's trust and chose to be with Meng Ting, which is unforgivable.
Moreover, he engaged in a relationship with Meng Ting using their work as an opportunity, showing a lack of respect for professional ethics and standards within the company.
This behavior not only violates company regulations but also has a negative impact on the company's image and reputation.
Secondly, this behavior will have a profound impact on Dan Dan's psychological and emotional well-being.
She will feel betrayed, disappointed, and may even doubt her own worth and attractiveness. The emotional damage can be more profound and long-lasting than any material loss. Furthermore, this behavior will damage the relationship between Dan Dan and her boyfriend, potentially leading to a breakup.
Lastly, this situation serves as a reminder that relationships in the workplace need to be handled with caution. While it is normal for colleagues to help and share experiences with each other, it is important to avoid developing overly intimate relationships, especially when one party is already in a committed partnership.
It is also crucial to maintain professional ethics and standards, avoiding using work as a means to pursue personal interests or violating company policies.
Dan Dan's discovery of her boyfriend's infidelity is a display of disloyalty and disrespect.
It will deeply impact her psychologically and emotionally, while also reminding us to handle workplace relationships with caution and maintain professional ethics and standards.
Pei's parents are so adorable. Her mom creatively pushes her to find a boyfriend, and her dad buys a new house for their pet turtle. When her mom sees Pei getting anxious and stressed, she organizes a group of friends who excel in traditional Chinese culture to help her daughter.
They worry that Pei would feel hurt if she found out, so they disguise their intentions.
Yangyang takes the initiative to pick up Pei, with those burning little eyes of his. He's worried about making Pei uncomfortable, so he keeps trying to avoid her.
He pretends to have a charger in his pocket while actually charging it in the car. He even borrows skewers to help with ideas. Pei, can I just say that your eyes gave away your feelings the moment you saw Yangyang?
You like him, but after not seeing each other for a long time, there's a sense of unfamiliarity or uncertainty.
Rebecca, the perceptive one, is probably the boss's child, right? Haha. Ding, the teacher, shows Dan's youthful days.
If life had such a responsible and caring teacher, it would truly be a blessing. Ding, you love life and are strong. What kind of psychological pressure do you bear? I really want to go back in time and accompany you, hug you.
Can you easily say to Dan, "You've been inhaling too much chalk dust"? Is it your genuine understanding of life or just a casual joke?
Yunmei's family's love for their child is truly heartfelt.
It's heartwarming how Northeastern people care for their children. Wherever the child is, that's home. In order to celebrate the Lunar New Year with Yunmei, her mom has arranged for the whole family to come to Chengdu.
When Yunmei sighs unintentionally, her mom immediately senses that something is bothering her. Yunmei takes a photo with three glasses and a bottle of beer, reassuring her parents and younger brother. She's a very sensible and well-behaved child.
Dong Jiaxi doesn't seem like someone who grew up in a single-parent family. She doesn't have that sense of inferiority. Silly as she is, she actually thought the theater guy liked her and was showing off.
There's a book that says the connection with a partner isn't about being exceptional or fate, but rather about the number of times they appear in front of you. It makes sense.
Dan hasn't figured out how to tell Dong Jiaxi yet.
After all, it hasn't been confirmed yet. She reminds Dong to care more about her mom.
Dan, pull yourself together quickly. In relationships, it's usually women who get hurt, being more emotional. You're still dwelling on past heartbreaks, still trying to analyze and wake up.
But someone has already paved the way for you.
In life, we often hear the phrase "I'm doing this for your own good." Those five words may have become familiar to us, but they are also filled with helplessness.
They are like invisible chains that bind us, like thin air that suffocates us. The previous generation, influenced by their living conditions and cultural environment, may have faced many hardships and struggles throughout their lives.
It's not difficult to understand that once they become parents, they eagerly hope that their children will have a prosperous and worry-free future.
Therefore, they pour all their efforts and energy into their children.
Children become their spiritual sustenance, and they even impose their own unfulfilled dreams and desires onto their children, planning their entire lives at an early stage.
They often feel that they have lived for so many years, encountered people of different backgrounds, and experienced many stories. Both mentally and physically, they are mature, experienced, and knowledgeable.
As a result, they always play the role of controllers in their children's paths of growth. They want to dictate what you should do, what major you should study, what job you should pursue, and even whom you should marry.
They wish they could arrange everything for you clearly and explicitly.
If you express any dissatisfaction or slight resistance, they will firmly say, "I'm doing this for your own good.
Otherwise, why would I have worked so hard and toiled all my life?" You can only remain silent, feeling deeply distressed inside. Every person is born as an independent individual, and throughout life, they will be influenced and constrained by people and events around them.
However, what to do and how to do it still ultimately rests on their own decisions. Parents and elders can only serve as guides, but they should not hold the power to judge or make decisions for you.
After all, all the experiences and consequences will be yours to bear.
Only through one's own choices can one willingly bear all the consequences. All the "doing this for your own good" must have a prerequisite: it must be what you truly want and what you genuinely need.
Just like how you love to eat apples while I prefer pears, if you insist on giving me an apple and watch me eat it reluctantly, saying it's good for my health, I might just not want to eat it.
You persist, saying, "I'm doing this for your own good." But the truth is, I simply don't like apples! Parents always look at things from the perspective of adults.
In their eyes, their children, no matter how old they are, will always be children. They fear that their children will take the wrong path, suffer hardships, or be deceived by others.
This is understandable. However, everything has its limits. Excessive care and the desire to personally control and arrange every detail, interfering in every aspect, can leave both parties mentally and physically exhausted.
Everyone has their own independent thinking and judgment. The path of life cannot be predetermined by anyone in a clear and definitive manner, and no one can predict what the future holds.
"I'm doing this for your own good," but you also have the right to make choices.
After watching these episodes, I noticed that the barrage comments were all about Huihui, but I don't think Huihui is wrong. What does it mean to have a "proper job"? What defines a "proper job"? Must we be exhausted in our lives?
Can't we follow our own hearts? I believe that if a mother truly respects her child, all choices should be made by the child themselves. Regardless of the consequences, an adult should bear them on their own. They have grown into independent individuals and have the right to make their own choices, naturally taking on corresponding responsibilities.
Excessive control can lead to rebellion from the child. When you fall ill, it will make the child feel guilty. It feels like it's destroying a person.
Liu Feng and Pei Pei's on-screen rivalry is truly side-splitting. The moment they meet, they start teasing each other mercilessly, holding nothing back.
From their conversations, it's evident that they were classmates since childhood, and Liu Feng had secretly admired Pei Pei all along.
Years later, Liu Feng still can't forget about Pei Pei. His heart fills with jealousy and unwillingness when he sees her with Xie Yang.
He throws caution to the wind and barges into Pei Pei's line of sight, even at the risk of awkwardness.
This scene is so laugh-out-loud funny, like watching two elementary school kids bickering.
Reflecting on their childhood, Liu Feng was always outdone by Pei Pei, whether it was in academics or other aspects.
This encounter seems to have once again fallen into the clutches of Pei Pei's "spell." However, their interaction remains entertaining and vibrant, as if time hasn't changed their friendship and understanding.
This rivalry makes us feel the power of time and prompts us to contemplate our own life journey.
Sometimes, we encounter special people whose interactions with us become unforgettable memories throughout our lives.
Whether it's friendship or love, these relationships require us to invest and maintain them with care. I hope Liu Feng and Pei Pei can continue to preserve their friendship and understanding, moving forward together.
The place Tieling, Liaoning, is familiar to many people. For me, whenever this place is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is the phrase "the end of the universe" meme.
In this drama, Li Xue Qin is indeed from this place.
In a previous talk show variety program, Li Xue Qin shared her mother's expectations for her, hoping that she would find a good partner.
In this drama, Li Xue Qin's character aligns with this expectation. The opening lines of dialogue also revolve around the topic of finding a partner, which undoubtedly presents a dilemma for her.
However, it also makes people more curious about Li Xue Qin's performance in the subsequent plot. Will she find her other half? Will she fulfill her mother's expectations and find a reliable and good partner? Or will she have other choices?
These are things we cannot know and can only anticipate the answers being revealed in the future plot.
In summary, as a comedian, Li Xue Qin has always been loved by the audience for her performance style. In this drama, her performance is outstanding as always.
Whether it's acting or dialogue, she showcases her personal charm.
I believe that in the subsequent plot, she will surely bring us more surprises and touching moments.
Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior indeed may not be liked by his colleagues at work. His actions and attitude may go against the values and expectations of most people, leading to friction and alienation when interacting with colleagues.
Firstly, Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior may manifest as his insistence on his own views and practices, unwilling to go with the flow or conform to others' opinions.
This kind of persistence may create differences and conflicts with colleagues, as most people tend to seek consensus and compromise.
When everyone expressed their enthusiasm for actively earning money and maximizing output, he proudly presented the insurance policy he signed and asked everyone to congratulate him. Instead of doing so, he nonchalantly stated that it was simple and nothing special.
Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior may make him appear different and even a bit eccentric. This uniqueness may leave colleagues feeling perplexed and puzzled, making it difficult for them to establish a close relationship with Jiang Feng.
People generally prefer to socialize with those who are similar to them or share common interests, and Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior may create a distance between him and his colleagues in this regard.
No one even wants to participate in team-building activities or share the joy of signing contracts with him.
Additionally, Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior may result in a lack of teamwork within the team.
He may be more inclined to accomplish tasks independently rather than collaborate with others. This lack of a cooperative attitude may leave colleagues feeling dissatisfied and disappointed, as they may expect to establish a supportive and collaborative relationship in their work.
He only focuses on completing his own tasks and speaks in a strange manner. However, although Jiang Feng's independent and unconventional behavior may make him unpopular among colleagues at work, it doesn't necessarily mean that his actions are wrong or should be changed.
Everyone has their own personality and values, and Jiang Feng has simply chosen a different path. What's important is to understand and respect each other's differences and seek common ground and possibilities for collaboration.
A special person like him may be needed in a team, especially when most people express difficulty in achieving established goals or when the task is challenging.
When he steps forward and says he can do it, it also gives Zhang Pei, the leader, a solution to the problem and inspires everyone to have the courage to compete with him.
Sometimes, this kind of ignited fighting spirit is also valuable. For Jiang Feng, he may need to realize that his independent and unconventional behavior can have a negative impact on his relationship with colleagues and try to find a balance.
He can persist in his own views while being more open to listening to others' opinions and showing a willingness to cooperate. Through proactive communication and effort, he may be able to improve his relationship with colleagues and establish a better atmosphere of cooperation in the workplace.
In a team like an insurance company, Jiang Feng is gradually being influenced by the leader Zhang Pei. Out of his liking for Zhang Pei, he is also gradually changing his personality. He must also recognize the areas where his personality is unsatisfactory and make incremental changes.
From the parts of the film that depict memories, we can also see that the development of a person's character takes time. Jiang Feng was already unique when he was young.
Dan Dan's feelings and considerations are very delicate, and her respect and care for her family are evident. She even changed her clothes when she returned home to avoid causing her parents to worry and to save face for them.
In fact, she wants to stay by her parents' side and doesn't want to leave home, but she hesitates because she's worried about their concerns once they find out she's pregnant and plans to be a single mother.
In this situation, I can understand Dan Dan's internal conflict. She may feel that she needs her family's support and understanding, but at the same time, she wants to protect the privacy and dignity of herself and her child.
Therefore, she may need to find a balance where she can express her thoughts and decisions while also taking into consideration her parents' feelings and concerns.
I think if Dan Dan truly decides to stay at home, it would be the best choice.
She can be honest with her parents, telling them about her decision and her pregnancy.
She can explain her thoughts and plans, as well as her confidence and expectations for the future. At the same time, she can also listen to their opinions and advice in order to gain their support and understanding.
Regardless of what decision Dan Dan makes, it's important for her to respect her own feelings and needs. At the same time, she should also respect her parents' feelings and concerns and maintain good communication and understanding with them.
Only then can she make the best decision and create a better life for herself and her child in the future.
Xie Yang and Zhang Pei are a perfect couple, showing signs of a strong connection from a young age. During that time, their trio's relationship was very close-knit, and even Gou Dan Dan openly admitted to being like a third wheel.
In their youthful innocence, they experienced a misty affection. Back then, it leaned more towards Zhang Pei's attachment and concern for Xie Yang, although it wasn't expressed directly. As for Xie Yang's emotional output towards Zhang Pei, it unfolded in their adult years.
Boys tend to mature emotionally later, and he openly confessed his current love for Zhang Pei. This bold and radiant attitude deeply attracted him.
Xie Yang and Zhang Pei are a very compatible couple.
They not only complement each other in terms of personality but also understand and support each other.
Zhang Pei is assertive and independent, while Xie Yang is a gentle, kind, and considerate young man who gained material wealth early in life, allowing him to live comfortably without much toil.
This complementary nature of their personalities enables them to complement each other in their interactions and face life's challenges together.
Xie Yang and Zhang Pei also share similar values and attitudes towards life.
They both approach life with enthusiasm, positivity, take their work seriously, and pursue their dreams.
Although Xie Yang doesn't have to worry about material concerns, he still has his own life pursuits.
This shared set of values and attitudes towards life makes them more compatible and easily resonate with each other.
The love between Xie Yang and Zhang Pei is also built on mutual respect and understanding.
They always consider each other's perspectives, care about each other's feelings and needs, and put each other first.
This relationship of mutual respect and understanding fosters greater trust and appreciation for each other's feelings.
Their personalities, values, and attitudes towards life are very similar. The relationship of mutual respect and understanding also fosters greater trust between them, as they journey through life together.
In the TV series, whether it's the teacher or Zhang Pei's parents, they intervened when Xie Yang and Zhang Pei were in their youthful years and their relationship seemed closer. In retrospect, this is understandable.
Love may need time to settle and mature, and it is accepted and rational when it happens at the most appropriate and mature stage.
Early romantic relationships are a subjective concept and do not have clear standards or definitions.
Depending on different backgrounds, people may have varying age ranges for what they consider early romantic relationships.
However, it is important to note that regardless of the physiological, psychological, or social aspects, involvement in romantic relationships at an immature stage can have negative consequences.
Due to the general lack of mature emotional management skills among teenagers, early involvement in romantic relationships can lead to emotional fluctuations and instability. This not only affects their academic performance, daily life, and well-being but also causes unnecessary stress and anxiety.
Teenagers often face various psychological challenges during adolescence, such as self-identity and social skills. If they engage in romantic relationships too early, it may lead to more mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
These problems not only impact the quality of teenagers' lives but may also affect their future development.
I admire the deep friendship among the four female protagonists. They trust and support each other, even though they hesitate to burden each other with their own trivial matters. But when one of them faces difficulties, they all come to her aid with great effort.
The bond between the four sisters is an important theme in the story. After reuniting in their hometown, they spend many unforgettable moments together. They support, care for, and understand each other, becoming each other's closest friends.
They share their joys, sorrows, and everything in between, listening and supporting one another.
When faced with challenges and hardships in life, they unite and overcome them together. This friendship goes beyond surface-level interactions and care; it is rooted in genuine understanding and acceptance.
They respect each other's choices and decisions, supporting one another in pursuing their dreams and goals. Even in times of disagreement and conflict, they treat each other with honesty, expressing their thoughts and feelings while seeking solutions to problems.
This friendship is not just about enjoying happy and carefree moments together; it's about providing support and help when needed. They readily extend a helping hand and offer care and support when one of them faces difficulties.
They also play significant roles in each other's growth, becoming their strongest pillars of support.
In conclusion, the bond among the four sisters in "Homeland, How Have You Been?" showcases the true power of friendship and mutual support.
Their story tells us that no matter what challenges and difficulties we encounter in life, having true friends by our side can help us overcome obstacles and move forward with courage.
This friendship is not just about spending joyful times together; it's about providing help and support when needed.
After drinking and returning home, Peipei accidentally discovered a small notebook that recorded her parents' expenses. She opened it and was surprised to find that her parents lived frugally, calculating every penny, even when buying vegetables.
However, at the end of the records, she saw a line that read, "150,000 yuan for Zhang Pei's house." This instantly brought tears to her eyes, as she felt the deep love and sacrifice her parents had made. Her parents had been silently giving for her, willing to tighten their belts and use all their savings to buy her a house, all for the sake of giving her a better future.
This selfless dedication deeply moved Peipei and made her cherish and be grateful for the nurturing love from her parents. This plot also shows us the common wish of parents worldwide, which is to see their children lead better lives.
They are willing to give everything, even their own lives, for their children. This love and sacrifice are selfless and unconditional, bringing immense warmth and touch.
At the same time, this plot reminds us to cherish our parents' sacrifices and love.
We should do our best to filial them and let them lead happy lives. Let's not wait until we lose them to appreciate their value. Starting from now, let's use actions to express our love and gratitude for our parents.
The incident where Peipei discovered her parents' expense records shows us the selfless love and sacrifice of parents, reminding us to cherish and be grateful for their nurturing love.
Let's express our love and gratitude to them through actions and enable them to live happy lives.
Peipei's mother entering Peipei's video conference without permission by using a key directly can indeed cause certain psychological and emotional harm to Peipei.
Everyone has their own privacy and personal space, which should be respected and protected.
By locking the door, Peipei indicated her desire to have her own private space during the video conference. However, her mother entered without knocking, which may make Peipei feel that her privacy has been violated, leading to feelings of dissatisfaction and resistance.
This behavior may make Peipei feel untrusted and disrespected. Her mother entered without asking for Peipei's opinion, which may make Peipei feel that her thoughts and feelings are not valued, resulting in disharmony in their parent-child relationship.
This behavior may also have a negative impact on Peipei's personality and self-confidence. If her mother frequently engages in such behavior, it may make Peipei feel that her personal space and privacy are not protected, leading to a lack of confidence and a sense of insecurity.
As parents, it is important to respect a child's privacy and personal space, and to communicate and negotiate with them as much as possible. If her mother wants to know about Peipei's situation, she can ask for Peipei's opinion by knocking on the door or communicate with her in other public areas.
At the same time, her mother should also be aware of the potential impact of her actions on Peipei and try to avoid similar incidents from happening.
Zhang Pei left Beijing and returned to Chengdu, carrying the weight of the team on her shoulders. The pressure is immense.
Xie Yang invited Zhang Pei to indulge in nightlife as a gesture of care and help between friends.
It may also be because Xie Yang believes that nightlife can help Zhang Pei relieve stress.
However, from Zhang Pei's perspective, she may need to consider whether she truly needs this form of relaxation and whether it aligns with her personal values and moral standards.
She also feels that she shouldn't be getting so close to Xie Yang. Nightlife indeed offers a way to relax and can help people relieve stress and release emotions.
We used to think that after a hard day's work, we should just let go of everything, snuggle in bed, watch dramas, read novels, and sleep.
Going out requires careful dressing up, putting on a false facade, but is it worth the time and effort?
In reality, society requires interaction and communication with others. Going out at night may seem like a waste of time, but it can relax the mind and contribute to better performance at work the next day.
Ultimately, it depends on your inner self and whether you truly need this form of release. If you make decisions that go against your inner self just to conform to others' expectations, it's not necessary and can lead to inner dissatisfaction and anxiety.
There are other ways to relax, such as exercise, reading, and traveling. These methods can also help alleviate stress and enrich one's life.
Put yourself in others' shoes. Teacher Ding has experienced life and death and raised a child all on her own. So, should we consider whether someone who feels suffocated has become a parent?
Before speaking, it's better to be kind, considering the hardships others may have endured. Throughout our lives, we are constantly learning how to interact with all kinds of people, investing effort into managing various relationships.
Whether we're thirty or fifty years old, we are always learning.
Everyone has different learning abilities. Just because you excel at something doesn't mean you can freely judge others.
As I watched, I somehow sensed a touch of "Reply" series in it. It's like you can find a reflection of yourself in the characters in the drama.
Work is like Zhang Pei, life is like Gou Dan Dan, real life is like Wu Yun, and emotions and thoughts are like Dong Jia Xi.
There's a line in the drama that goes, "Can we truly write our own life script? Is it possible that no matter what decision we make, it will lead to regrets? But regardless of regret, we won't know until we crash whether we're heading towards a cotton-wrapped comfort or a broken wall." Let's encourage each other~
Is Xixi's mother really that hard to understand? I also came from a difficult family environment when I was young, but as I grew up, I reconciled with my biological family. I think her mother is very understandable. A girl should have the capability and confidence to earn her own money.
She works at her boyfriend's store, but to be honest, she doesn't really do much. Her mother is just worried that if they stay together for a long time, and one day her boyfriend breaks up with her, she would lose her job and love. Considering her mother's perspective, I find it very understandable.
And personally, I think this woman, at 26 years old, is quite immature.
Pei had experienced the sudden death of a friend and witnessed the grief of the friend's parents, which made her determined to return to Chengdu, work while accompanying her parents.
This also reflects the current state of many independent women—busy with work and no time for love, or no suitable partner. It's like being caught between high standards and settling for less.
When she returned home and flipped through the account book, I was deeply moved. Even though it was a small one-bedroom apartment without a room for her parents, their little disappointment still motivated them to do their best to share her burdens.
They worried about her getting tired and used their own strength to help her buy a house. When Pei had a little too much to drink and saw her mom's worn-out toothbrush, she said that spending money on her was her way of filial piety.
Her parents comforted her with tender care. Her mom suggested making a bun with her hair and getting up to have breakfast, and I couldn't help but chuckle. The table full of breakfast and the artistic atmosphere of the family of three, the subtle expressions and careful probing by her parents at the dining table, I felt a strong sense of happiness.
The love and understanding of parents can always heal you.
Wherever Xueqin is present, you won't be disappointed. We've been drinking and eating spicy food for so many years, and I can't even count how many times.
But you, my friend, always rank last in terms of tolerance. Haha, you never fail to hold your ground!
Qi recognized the big sister who eats rabbit heads at first glance, but Dan didn't recognize him.
Poor Dan, wanting to appear strong and save face, heals her wounds alone. It breaks my heart. Mom said that no matter what situation you're in, you should have resilience and not give in!
Yes, I became a full-time mom passively, unwillingly. My child needs me, and mainly because I'm lost myself. There's no room for growth in my job—mechanical repetition, and there won't be much progress in income in the next year.
It's time to restart.
When Teacher Ding was seeing a doctor, his sister cried and asked the doctor if he could be cured. I burst into tears. Even now, after 7 years since my father passed away, I still can't accept his sudden departure.
I didn't get to see him one last time or take care of him by his side. He couldn't even finish the hospital check-up before it was too late. We always think there's plenty of time ahead, but who could have imagined that a strong and healthy father, like a bull, would be gone?
I never really felt like he was gone, but when I entered the courtyard of our old house and couldn't hear my father's voice, my heart felt so heavy.
I started watching the drama to follow the story of Ren Su Xi and Xie Yang, but it was Wu Yun who truly touched me.
Yunmei is an ordinary girl-next-door, just like you and me. She doesn't have Pei's sharp tongue or Danxi's beauty, but she possesses everything I envy: a heart of gold, a simple and inexperienced twenties, and the support of a strong and warm family.
Yunmei always wears a cheerful smile on her face, even when her initial reaction to a breakup is "I'll give you a chance to take it back.
Wu Yun is like the little sister from the neighboring house whom I feel sorry for and want to give a hug.
Besides, Yunmei is so strong and wise, like Sun Wukong. Even as a 81-year-old auntie, I really want to be friends with her.
