Episode 26 recap: Li Chang Sheng paid for the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NRCMS) fees.
Xiaoze expressed his frustration, asking if everything had to fall on his shoulders. Wang Ya Nan went to Guifen with a hairtail fish, expressing her desire for Li Chang Sheng to work at the new health center. However, he was unwilling to go. Guifen questioned why he should leave when he could stay at the ancestral hall, which held memories of him and his late wife. Guifen hoped that together with Wang Ya Nan, they could help Li Chang Sheng overcome his emotional burdens, but Guifen admitted that she couldn't do much about it.
Donghua mentioned that he wanted to fire Manager Duan, stating that he had valid reasons for doing so. Donghua insisted that there was no room for negotiation on this matter, and if they couldn't gather enough money within a week, he would certainly face imprisonment. Xiaoze approached Bai Shi Zhou, saying that he had gathered enough money, which meant they could pay the NRCMS fees in full. Xiaoze's father, upon seeing this, expressed his despair, as he had stolen money from their home to give to Bai Shi Zhou. Li Chang Sheng intervened, stating that participating in the NRCMS was a good thing and there was no need for such actions. Xiaoze complained that his father had never disciplined him when he was mischievous in the past, and questioned why he was acting this way today. Furthermore, Xiaoze emphasized that the money he had was earned and not stolen.
Manager Duan agreed to do business with someone else to gather the required money. Li Chang Sheng wanted to help Xiaoze by providing the money, but Bai Shi Zhou insisted that if anyone was to provide the funds, it should be him and not Li Chang Sheng. Li Chang Sheng declined his offer and mentioned that he should have a serious talk with Wang Ya Nan because she liked him a lot. Bai Shi Zhou claimed he had no knowledge about Wang Ya Nan's feelings and considered her as just a good friend.
Manager Duan approached General Han, explaining that he had a new project he wanted to promote in rural areas and sought his cooperation due to his relevant experience. Manager Duan assured him that he had no issues except that he urgently needed a salary of 200,000. General Han responded that it was not a problem but requested him to sign a written agreement. As Li Chang Sheng climbed the mountain, he felt a bit dizzy and seemed to see Xuemei. However, it was all just a figment of his imagination.
Upon returning home, Li Chang Sheng had a conversation with Guifen. He admitted that he couldn't bear to leave that place because it held memories of him and Xuemei. Guifen admitted her uncertainty about whether he should move out or not, but she knew that he could receive medical treatment no matter where he lived.
Bai Shi Zhou took Ya Nan out and asked her if she liked him. When asked if Bai Shi Zhou liked her, he admitted that he did. When Ya Nan was about to leave, he mentioned that it wasn't that he didn't like her. In fact, he still had feelings for her in his heart. Wang Ya Nan moved the coffee machine to the new health center. She mentioned that Ma Chong Feng had said he would come to help but hadn't shown up. Li Chang Sheng visited the ancestral hall and felt reluctant to leave. He promised that he would come back to visit this place.
Guifen arrived at the entrance and saw him coming out. She mentioned that she had been waiting for him there. Moreover, the new health center was opening, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him not to go. Li Chang Sheng agreed and hoped that they could go together to take a look. Manager Duan approached Accountant Wu and mentioned that he came to visit him today. Accountant Wu pointed out that he specifically owed him the final payment, and whether they could collaborate next year was uncertain. Manager Duan explained that he came today to work on a financial project with high returns and low investment, which could earn a lot of money. Accountant Wu mentioned that he had other villages to collaborate with and wouldn't stay there for the time being. He pondered upon the advertisement left behind by Manager Duan.
Dawei's wife and the villagers went to the health center to earn some money. She mentioned that she came today to get some medicine and see if it could be reimbursed. When she proposed getting some beauty and skincare medicine, Bai Shi Zhou informed her that the medicine they wanted was not covered by reimbursement. Immediately, they argued that when they had to pay for it themselves, they were told that everything could be reimbursed. In order to test if it could be reimbursed, they decided to pretend to be sick. Li Chang Sheng jokingly mentioned that they could get reimbursement if they wanted to get some poisonous medicine. Dawei's wife sarcastically remarked that she would end up reimbursing herself. Li Chang Sheng straightforwardly stated that they were just making trouble for no reason.
