Episode 30 recap: Jiang Yao accepted Shi Zhu Zi.
When Jiang Da Qiao saw that Jiang Yao was safe, he tightly embraced her and regretted allowing the disobedient Jiang Yao to come to Africa. At that moment, Jiang Da Qiao received a phone call and learned that there was news about Shi Zhu Zi. He hurriedly went back to see him and found that Shi Zhu Zi had injured his foot. He carefully treated Shi Zhu Zi's injury.
Jiang Yao's gaze was fixed on Jiang Da Qiao the whole time. Seeing how caring he was towards Shi Zhu Zi, she felt a bit disappointed. However, she realized that her previous behavior was inappropriate. So she listened to Zhao Yi Cong's advice and gave Jiang Da Qiao and Shi Zhu Zi some space to be together.
Shi Zhu Zi had been observing Jiang Yao, worried that she might act recklessly. When Jiang Da Qiao learned about this, he reassured Shi Zhu Zi not to worry and promised to find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Yao and clarify things. He didn't want to miss the chance with Shi Zhu Zi and decided to live each day to the fullest.
Last night, Liang Sen Lin dreamt of Teacher Du. Today, he specially brought a bucket of water to water the phoenix tree. He thought about how Teacher Du had stayed here forever more than twenty years ago, while he had transformed from a young person to an old man. He felt that he might not have the opportunity to come back to Africa again, so he reluctantly bid farewell to the phoenix tree and Teacher Du, making a promise to meet again in his dreams.
Jiang Da Qiao accompanied Shi Zhu Zi back to the restaurant and intended to take Jiang Yao home. However, Jiang Yao refused to go back and wanted to stay at the restaurant. When Shi Zhu Zi saw Jiang Da Qiao's objection, she quickly said that Aixi and Jiang Yao were of similar ages and could keep each other company. But Jiang Da Qiao still worried that Jiang Yao might cause trouble, especially since Shi Zhu Zi had a leg injury and couldn't take care of Jiang Yao properly.
Jiang Yao repeatedly assured them that she didn't need anyone to take care of her, and only then did Jiang Da Qiao relent. On the beach, Jiang Yao saw a drum that was common in Africa and couldn't help but be eager to try it. Most Africans knew how to play this kind of drum, and Aixi showed Jiang Yao a few moves to learn. Jiang Yao played the drum while Aixi danced. The sound of the drum attracted other people, and they came over to join in. Jiang Yao danced along with Aixi happily, but then Aixi's uncle came to find her.
Upon seeing Aixi's uncle, Shi Zhu Zi and Jiang Yao could tell that he wasn't a good person. They advised Aixi not to go back and questioned her about what had happened. But Aixi refused to say and chose to go back with her uncle. Jiang Yao couldn't help but blame Shi Zhu Zi for not stopping Aixi.
Shi Zhu Zi reminded Jiang Yao that Aixi was an independent person, and her decision should be respected. Jiang Yao knew that Aixi had no parents and was particularly interested in learning everything about her. When she found out that Shi Zhu Zi had known Jiang Da Qiao eight years ago, she became even more upset, insisting that Jiang Da Qiao had come to Africa this time because of Shi Zhu Zi. This statement made Shi Zhu Zi angry, and she immediately clarified that eight years ago, she and Jiang Da Qiao had a pure relationship, and Jiang Da Qiao was already divorced. She was single, and whether they were dating or not was their own business, and Jiang Yao had no right to interfere.
Jiang Yao thought about Shi Zhu Zi's words and found them reasonable. She took the initiative to help Shi Zhu Zi with her work and got to know her again. She called her "Aunt Bamboo" and accepted Shi Zhu Zi and Jiang Da Qiao's romantic relationship.
In a couple of days, the visiting group would be returning to their home country. Shi Zhu Zi specifically asked Jiang Yao to go back and spend two days with Jiang Da Qiao. When Jiang Da Qiao saw the harmonious relationship between Shi Zhu Zi and Jiang Yao, he felt both happy and surprised. He wanted to know what had happened between them, but Shi Zhu Zi refused to tell him and asked him to ask Jiang Yao instead. However, when he approached Jiang Yao with his questions, she refused to speak and kept the doubts to herself.
Liang Sen Lin knew that Ma Jia and Liu Xiao Xian had a tense relationship. He reminded Ma Jia to seize the last two days to explain things clearly to Liu Xiao Xian, or else he would miss the opportunity. Liu Xiao Xian was initially unaware that Ma Jia had almost contracted AIDS. It was Liang Sen Lin who informed her, and she realized that Ma Jia had faced many difficulties in Africa. Thinking about this, Liu Xiao Xian had to admit that Ma Jia was a good doctor.
Ma Jia realized that he was not a qualified husband as he had envisioned himself to be, providing a happy family for Liu Xiao Xian. Liu Xiao Xian believed that this was not a test, and no one was grading him. They had a long conversation today and understood each other's decisions and feelings.
Today was the day for the family group to have a meal together in Maile Village. Jiang Da Qiao, Chang Lai, and Peng Wei were busy in the kitchen. Jiang Yao learned that Shi Zhu Zi hadn't come today, so she went to invite her specifically. During the meal, she accepted Shi Zhu Zi as Jiang Da Qiao's partner and allowed Shi Zhu Zi to speak as a family member.
Jiang Da Qiao looked at the sensible Jiang Yao and felt a warm feeling in his heart. The smile on his face couldn't be restrained. Aixi came back crying with injuries, and Jiang Yao was deeply concerned when she saw her. She shed many tears. After learning that Aixi's uncle wanted to marry her off as a concubine for a cow, Jiang Yao proposed adopting Aixi to Jiang Da Qiao.
