Episode 21 recap: Lin Ping Ping had an abortion and went abroad.
Lin Ping Ping told Chen Huan that she had been waiting a long time for this day. Going abroad is just gilding for others, it's further education. But for her, it's a conviction, a new life. Lin Ping Ping said she doesn't want to wait anymore, and can't wait anymore for this opportunity.
She told Chen Huan that he can come find her in a few years, and they can have however many children they want. Lin Ping Ping told Liao Qingqiu that she can go abroad now, and Liao Qingqiu thought that was great. Lin Hanmin felt that since she was still pregnant, how would the child be taken care of if she went abroad, would the child be born in the US.
Lin Yida thought it would be good for the child to be born in the US, since he has an American nephew. Liao Qingqiu and Lin Hanmin asked her to discuss it with Chen Huan, could they really have the child in the US. Lin Ping Ping said she was being sent to the US on official business, so how could she have a child.
Lin Hanmin knew that meant she could only choose either going abroad or having the child, he felt if she chose going abroad, how would Chen Huan and the Chen family feel. Lin Hanmin told Lin Ping Ping he did not allow her to go abroad. Liao Qingqiu scolded Lin Hanmin, telling him not to bring his official attitude home, and to properly discuss it with Lin Ping Ping.
Daha asked Chen Qing what they were arguing about just now, Chen Qing told him that Lin Ping Ping wanted to go abroad and have an abortion. Daha thought that would really upset Hu Guilin, since she wanted to hold the baby the most. Daha felt that Chen Huan just couldn't bear to tell her.
Pan Tao came to ask Hu Guilin if she wasn't making the little cotton jacket, Hu Guilin told her to stop for now. She told Pan Tao that Lin Ping Ping wants to go abroad and doesn't want the baby in her belly anymore. Pan Tao asked if she heard wrong, and Hu Guilin started crying, saying her happiness was for nothing.
Pan Tao told Hu Guilin this is not something she should agree to. Hu Guilin said she just can't agree to it, why did she end up with such a daughter-in-law. Leaving the good days behind, she just doesn't want to live well, Pan Tao felt Lin Ping Ping was only good-looking, what else is she good for.
Lin Ping Ping brought the TOEFL application form in front of Chen Huan, and asked him what he really thinks. Chen Huan silently sat down on the sofa, Lin Ping Ping said the TOEFL is difficult, but Chen Huan knows her English level, so it shouldn't be too hard for her.
Lin Ping Ping said she and Chen Huan grew up together, and Chen Huan should know why he must go abroad. Lin Ping Ping said she had been waiting for this day for a long time, and Chen Huan knew it. For others, going abroad might just be about making money or pursuing further education, but for her, it was her dream, and she didn't want to wait any longer.
Lin Ping Ping said she would find a way to go abroad, and in a couple of years, she would let Chen Huan come and find her. By then, they could have however many children they wanted. Chen Huan told her to do whatever she wanted, and then he left. In the end, Lin Ping Ping had an abortion, and although Chen Huan was deeply saddened, he still went to the hospital to pick up Lin Ping Ping and made her millet porridge.
Liao Qingqiu felt that since Chen Huan had gone this far, he was really a good son-in-law, and she just wanted to ask Lin Ping Ping if she really wanted to go abroad that much. She wondered how Lin Ping Ping could not be content. Having ambition is good, but a woman's family is also very important. Liao Qingqiu felt that Lin Ping Ping's behavior today was also partly her fault, as she had indulged Lin Ping Ping's willfulness from a young age.
Lin Ping Ping asked Liao Qingqiu if Chen Huan could forgive her, and Liao Qingqiu told her that she didn't know. Liu Quan found Chen Huan and told him that Yang Xia and Geng San had called, and they were willing to negotiate with Da Hai. Chen Huan gave Da Hai the compensation money from Yang Xia and Geng San.
When Chen Huan returned home, Hu Guilin called him over and asked him to bring the chicken soup she had made to Lin Ping Ping. Chen Huan asked her if she didn't blame Lin Ping Ping anymore, and Hu Guilin said she couldn't say whether she blamed her or not, but she wouldn't forgive Lin Ping Ping. After all, she was the daughter-in-law of the Lao Chen family, and Hu Guilin told Chen Huan to tell Lin Ping Ping that if she wanted to eat dumplings, she could come.
Chen Huan went home and gave the chicken soup to Lin Ping Ping, and Lin Ping Ping asked him if Hu Guilin would forgive her. Chen Huan told her to hurry up and drink the soup before it got cold, and then he got up to leave. Lin Ping Ping hugged Chen Huan and asked him if he could still forgive her. Chen Huan took Lin Ping Ping to the station and told her to take care of herself in the US.
Lin Hanmin felt that Lin Ping Ping would definitely not come back this time she went abroad, but Liao Qingqiu didn't think so. She felt that it would be fine for Lin Ping Ping to stay in the US. Lin Hanmin thought that in that case, the future of Chen Huan and Lin Ping Ping's marriage was uncertain, but Liao Qingqiu still felt that their relationship was very good.
