Episode 16 recap: Xu Meng Xin's behavior angered her father, causing him to have a stroke.
Jia Hao Wen had a big bump on his head, and Jia's mother immediately suspected it was caused by Xin. Although Jia Hao Wen insisted he had accidentally bumped into something, Jia's mother went to Xin's house to complain. Xu Meng Xin, hearing the disrespectful way her mother-in-law spoke, suggested that Jia's mother stay at her own family's home for a while to cool down.
Xu Meng Xin then came out with her pregnant belly, firmly reminding her that this was her father-in-law's home and she could stay as long as she wanted, and that the bump on Jia Hao Wen's head was not caused by her. Seeing that it was nearly dinner time, Xu Meng Xin's father proposed they all go to the park and have a meal together to ease the tension between the families. On the way, they ran into Jia Hao Wen, who was trying to avoid his overbearing mother. Seeing he couldn't avoid her, Jia Hao Wen greeted them cheerfully and reiterated that the bump was from his own accident, secretly slipping money into his father-in-law's pocket to cover his mother's expenses for the day.
At the dinner table, Jia Hao Wen's mother couldn't help but ramble on. She was happy to see her son settled with a good wife and a successful business, but was worried since Xu Meng Xin's second pregnancy had led to constant arguing and even physical fights between the couple. As a mother, she naturally didn't want her grandchild to grow up without an intact family.
Both sets of parents agreed that divorce was unacceptable, as their families didn't have a tradition of unreasonable divorces. They understood that Xu Meng Xin's mood swings and postpartum depression were making the situation difficult, so they tried to be mutually understanding.
Later, Li Lin rushed to retrieve her daughter Cloud Ladder from a youth rock concert, worried she would pick up bad habits from the other teenagers there. That night, Xu Meng Xin's father asked her to apologize to her mother-in-law, but she refused, feeling her mother-in-law had been unreasonable in criticizing her without cause. This led to an argument between Xu Meng Xin and her father, which caused her father's blood pressure to spike and him to faint.
