Episode 8 recap: The big sea business is facing some problems.

The big sea guy bought Chen Qing a very nice floral dress, but Chen Qing felt like she was no longer a young girl. However, the big sea guy thought she looked even better than a young girl, so he asked her to wear it to work. Chen Qing told the big sea guy that she had found the chef he had arranged for Luo Li Qin's wedding. The big sea guy knew it was a good match, but he still teased Chen Qing and asked if the chef was a man or a woman.

Chen Xiao Ou was wearing the dress the big sea guy just bought her and was preparing to go to school. As soon as she walked out, she ran into Liang Zi. Liang Zi looked at the grown-up little Ou in front of him, and went back home to tell Pan Tao that little Ou had grown up. Pan Tao felt that girls really do change a lot as they grow up, and she got more and more beautiful. She told Liang Zi not to have any ideas about little Ou, since she's still in school.

The big sea guy bought some tea leaves for Chen's dad and a gold ring for Hu Gui Lan. Hu Gui Lan told him to return the ring, but the big sea guy said he saw Pan Tao wearing one, so he wanted to buy one for her too. Hu Gui Lan said she had never even worn a ring like that, and it was quite expensive.

The big sea guy insisted that she at least try it on, and Hu Gui Lan found that it looked quite nice on her. She said this ring should have been bought by her son-in-law, but the big sea guy told her he's not the son-in-law, but the son. He felt that today was a special day, as it was the day many years ago when Hu Gui Lan had brought him home and made him her son.

The big sea guy felt that Hu Gui Lan and Chen's dad were like his real parents, and he had always wanted to buy them nice things to show his filial piety. But he never had the money before. This time, he was determined to get Hu Gui Lan to accept the ring.

Fan Xue Jun saw Chen Xiao Ou and knew she was He Da Hai's sister-in-law. He took Li Bing and went to confront Chen Xiao Ou as she was leaving. Just then, Liang Zi arrived and told Fan Xue Jun that Chen Xiao Ou was his own sister, and that he would kill anyone who dared to touch her. Li Bing urged Fan Xue Jun to let it go, seeing the big gold chain Liang Zi was wearing, realizing he must be the boss.

Liang Zi went back and told the big sea guy what happened. The big sea guy said Liang Zi was too soft, and he would have beaten them up badly. Liang Zi asked the big sea guy for another 2000, but the big sea guy felt he had just given 1000, and the inventory didn't even require his money.

Liang Zi spoke haltingly about how he had played cards a few times recently, and Da Hai asked him how much money he had lost. Liang Zi didn't say anything, and Da Hai knew that Liang Zi had lost the money he owed his uncle too. Da Hai felt that if Liang Zi kept gambling, it wouldn't matter if they opened a hundred large-scale stores. Da Hai told him that if he wanted to gamble, then go ahead, but he should think about whether they really wanted to do their business well. If he didn't want to do it well, then he could just keep gambling, but if he did want to do it well, then he should do it properly.

When Chen Xiao Ou returned home, she saw the thing Hu Gui Lan was sewing and let out a yell. This startled Hu Gui Lan, who said she had seen that Chen Xiao Ou's pants were worn through, so she had sewn them up. Chen Xiao Ou told her that was exactly what she wanted, and snatched the pants away.

As soon as Lin Ping Ping got home, she saw Gu Yi Ming, who told her that if she wanted to go abroad, she could get help from his family. Lin Ping Ping told him to hurry up and leave, as she knew Gu Yi Ming was about to marry Su Xiao Nuo. Gu Yi Ming said he was getting married, but he wanted to come talk to Lin Ping Ping.

Lin Ping Ping pushed her bicycle, intending to go find Su Xiao Nuo so the three of them could talk. Just then, Chen Huan arrived, and when Gu Yi Ming saw him, he left. Lin Ping Ping took Chen Huan to the dance hall to do the disco, but Chen Huan felt it was not a place he could come often, as it made him anxious.

Lin Ping Ping asked Chen Huan what he normally liked to do, and he told her he just liked to play chess and listen to the radio. Lin Ping Ping felt this was just an old person's life, and the two of them left, chatting and joking. When Lin Yi Da returned home, he told Lin Han Min that their unit was preparing to set up a company, and the leader wanted Lin Yi Da to be the general manager. Lin Han Min told him his opinion was not to go, as being involved in a company would entail financial issues. But Lin Yi Da didn't listen to him and wanted to go, and Liao Jing Qiu also supported Lin Yi Da.

Fan Xue Jun came to Liang Zi's clothing store and began to stir up trouble between Liang Zi and Da Hai. At Luo Li Qin's wedding, Zhu Qun Ying's skills were recognized by the boss, who invited Zhu Qun Ying to join them.
