Episode 6 recap: Mr. Jin did not become the mayor.
Chen Mu Kun was also very surprised to learn that Bai Xue Hua had such a background. Mr. Jin wanted to become the mayor, but no one is willing to support him now. He has done so many bad things in the past, and if he becomes the mayor, everyone will be in trouble. Mr. Jin went to see the current mayor, Xin Hu, but there was nothing the current mayor could do and had to agree to let Mr. Jin become the mayor.
Mr. Jin approached Chen Mu Kun, hoping that Chen Mu Kun would help him. He believed that Chen Mu Kun had a lot of prestige now, and as long as Chen Mu Kun was willing to support him, others would surely agree as well. Chen Mu Kun had no choice but to help Mr. Jin.
Mr. Jin came to the Li family, hoping that they would support him as the mayor. However, Li Xiaofei disagreed. After all the things Mr. Jin had done before, how could they possibly agree to help him? Unexpectedly, Chen Mu Kun came and said that he also supported Mr. Jin because he had planted a seed of kindness in Mr. Jin's heart. Now Mr. Jin must have changed for the better, so it was acceptable for him to become the mayor. Since Chen Mu Kun said so, Li Xiaofei agreed, and many other townspeople also agreed to let Mr. Jin become the mayor.
A girl came here and begged the gods not to let Mr. Jin become the mayor. She said her father did not want to sell the land to Mr. Jin, so Mr. Jin brought people to attack her father and broke his leg, making it impossible for him to work in the fields. The girl believed that if Mr. Jin became the mayor, he would treat others the same way, and everyone's lives would become very difficult. Lv Dong Bin happened to overhear this, and the girl thought that Lv Dong Bin worked in the temple, so she asked if he could help her plead with the gods. Lv Dong Bin said that even if the gods knew, they might not necessarily agree.
Lv Dong Bin brought Chen Mu Kun to the girl's house. The girl's father was injured and could only lie in bed. The two of them pleaded together, hoping that Chen Mu Kun would understand that Mr. Jin should not become the mayor; otherwise, everyone would be in trouble. Chen Mu Kun felt sorry for them and realized that whether he helped Mr. Jin or not, he would be in trouble.
Bai Xue Hua agreed to come and shoot an advertisement in order to raise money for her aunt's medical treatment. However, she didn't expect that the advertisement required her to undress. The people there said that Bai Xue Hua's uncle had taken all the money, and she had to help them shoot the ad. Chen Mu Kun noticed something was wrong and heard that Bai Xue Hua had gone towards the woods, so he quickly followed her.
The people there forced Bai Xue Hua to shoot the ad, but Chen Mu Kun and Lv Dong Bin arrived and got into a fight with them, rescuing Bai Xue Hua. Bai Xue Hua inquired and found out that her aunt had passed away several months ago, and her uncle was gone too. She had no home now. Chen Mu Kun told Bai Xue Hua to stay here and said that this place was her home.
Chen Mu Kun held a ritual and invited the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning to see if Mr. Jin could become the mayor. Unexpectedly, the incense was cut off. Chen Mu Kun explained that Mr. Jin had done too many evil deeds, and the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning disagreed, advising Mr. Jin to do more good deeds in the future. Mr. Jin had no choice. The girl came to tell Chen Mu Kun that Mr. Jin had given them 500 yuan and treated her father's leg.
The mayor's wife fell ill and said there was a divine doctor who could cure her. Chen Mu Kun and the others followed the mayor's wife to see, but they discovered that the whole thing was a scam. The mayor's wife blamed herself for trusting a fake mayor. She pleaded with Chen Mu Kun to let her live for another year or two, so she could hold on until her son returned home and see him one last time.
Initially, Chen Mu Kun refused, but the mayor's wife said she would give him all of their savings.
