Episode 20 recap: Qin Hong approached Huang Chun Xiang to collaborate on opening a museum.
Huang Yao Zu handed the contract signed by the villagers to Li Bo. Li Bo found the compensation demanded by the villagers to be exorbitantly high, and he suspected that Huang Yao Zu was up to no good. He immediately tore the contract to shreds. Today is Li Gui Zhi and Doudou's birthday. Qi Lin and Chu Yun had carefully prepared a birthday party, and Li Gui Zhi was deeply moved.
Qi Lin went to talk to the Chen brothers, Chen Wen and Chen Wu, about bringing Li Gui Zhi back home. Chen Wen had sold his house and factory, as his wife was suffering from severe pneumoconiosis, and he had no means to take care of Li Gui Zhi. Chen Wu wanted to take Li Gui Zhi in, but his wife disagreed, and they were on the verge of divorce over this. Qi Lin hit another dead end and left, disappointed.
Chen Wu's sons, Chen Junping and Chen Junan, had long wanted to visit their grandmother Li Gui Zhi in the hospital, but their mother wouldn't allow it. When they heard that Qi Lin had come to their house, they waited downstairs and begged Qi Lin to take their martial arts competition awards to Li Gui Zhi. They even performed their martial arts moves for Qi Lin to record, asking him to keep it a secret from their mother, and Qi Lin readily agreed.
Ma Wen Jun helped Qin Hong connect with the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau. Qin Hong donated money and goods to the Sanqing Temple, earning the praise of the bureau director. Qin Hong took the opportunity to propose supporting folk artisans like Huang Chun Xiang, and the director fully backed her decision.
Doudou's birthday was coming up soon, and Qi Lin bought an Ultraman figure as a gift, which Yan An Yang had meticulously disinfected with alcohol, and Doudou was delighted. Qi Lin showed Li Gui Zhi the awards and videos of Chen Junping and Chen Junan, and Li Gui Zhi was overjoyed.
Qi Lin took the opportunity to suggest that Li Gui Zhi leave the hospital, but she firmly refused, saying that if she left, there would be no one to take care of Doudou during the day. Huang Yao Zu convened a village meeting, fiddling with the lighter his son Li Bo had given him. He rallied the villagers to cooperate with the demolition office to pave the way for the Chenguang Plaza project. The villagers agreed to the demolition, as long as the demolition office provided sufficient compensation. Huang Yao Zu assured them that he would fight for even greater benefits for the villagers, even offering to increase the compensation tenfold if the villagers paid half the amount to the village committee. The villagers eagerly rushed to register their house sizes and related properties.
Tomorrow is the final deadline for the forced execution of Li Gui Zhi's bed-hogging case. Qi Lin went to find Chen Wen and Chen Wu, urging them to go to the hospital tomorrow.
Tomorrow, Chu Yun will forcibly execute the eviction order on Li Gui Zhi. Qi Lin wants to wait until after Li Gui Zhi's birthday to take action, and Chu Yun agrees to wait until 6 pm to go to the hospital.
Huang Chun Xiang is working at home, so she lets her grandson attend the meeting instead. The grandson honestly tells Huang Chun Xiang about Huang Yao Zu's actions. Qin Hong comes to visit Huang Chun Xiang and finds that she has already repaired the wooden carving. Qin Hong praises her craftsmanship and encourages her to promote her wood carving skills, offering to help her establish a wood carving cultural museum. Huang Chun Xiang is reluctant because of the complicated procedures, but Qin Hong has already submitted the application, so Huang Chun Xiang just needs to give the final approval.
Qin Hong approaches Chen Qi Lun to collaborate on the Morning Light Plaza project, but Chen Qi Lun rejects her in person. Qin Hong is not willing to give up and uses her connections with Ma Wen Jun and the Director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau to get close to Huang Chun Xiang. Huang Chun Xiang agrees to cooperate with Qin Hong to open a museum in Changsheng Village. Qin Hong plans to use the museum to compete with Chen Qi Lun, and she is eager to go home and celebrate with Dai Lan, who is worried that Qin Hong may not be able to raise the necessary funds, but Qin Hong is already confident in her plan.
Huang Yao Zu takes the villagers' property registration list to Li Bo, but Li Bo rejects it and presents a real price list, also playing a recording of Huang Yao Zu's speech at the village meeting. Huang Yao Zu's scheme is exposed, and he agrees to the price provided by Li Bo. Li Bo then takes his own lighter back from Huang Yao Zu, retrieving a hidden listening device from it. Realizing his plan has been foiled, Huang Yao Zu is stunned. Li Bo then tears up Huang Yao Zu's price list and reports back to Chen Qi Lun, who finally understands the real reason behind the two failed relocation attempts in Changsheng Village, and praises Li Bo's work.
Qin Hong applies for 2 million yuan from Shang Yongdao to establish Huang Chun Xiang's wood carving museum, and Shang Yongdao readily agrees. Shen Si Fang hears about Qin Hong's plan to build a museum in Changsheng Village and reminds the Culture and Tourism Bureau Director not to approve it, as it may affect the development of the Morning Light Plaza project.
Qi Lin and her colleagues work together to prepare a birthday party for Li Gui Zhi and Doudou in the hospital lobby. They have Ye Xuan bring Chen Wen and Chen Wu to perform martial arts for Li Gui Zhi, and they also give Doudou a birthday present. Chen Wen's daughter, Chen Junyi, also comes to celebrate Li Gui Zhi's birthday, and Li Gui Zhi is deeply moved to tears.
At the same time, Chen Wen's family and Chen Wu come to the hospital to pack up their belongings. Chen Wu's wife hurries there and offers to let Li Gui Zhi move in with them. After packing up, they go to report to Chu Yun, who is waiting with police officers.
