A Better Life Episode 16 Recap
> A Better Life Recap
Xue Xiaozhou's attending physician finalized his mother's surgery plan. He invited Wu Ya to dinner. Wu Ya claimed she was on duty tonight, but a nurse casually mentioned that Wu Ya had just finished her duty the day before yesterday. Wu Ya had no choice but to go to dinner with Xue Xiaozhou. Ding Zhiyuan's Second Aunt accompanied his Second Uncle from their hometown to Shanghai for surgery. They came directly to the house.
Hu Manli had to tell them that she and Ding Zhiyuan had separated and arranged for them to stay at a hotel. Second Aunt advised Hu Manli to reconcile with Ding Zhiyuan. Hu Manli had unspoken difficulties. Second Aunt guessed that Ding Zhiyuan was at fault first and promised to support Hu Manli. Hu Manli didn't want to listen to her nagging, so she found an excuse to leave first.
Hu Manli sent a message to notify Ding Zhiyuan as soon as she left. Xue Xiaozhou created a health insurance plan for Mr. Chen's whole family. Hu Manli immediately took it to Mr. Chen for review. Mr. Chen found that his elderly mother was excluded. He thought he had been cheated again and angrily returned the insurance policy to Hu Manli. Hu Manli immediately called Xue Xiaozhou and asked him to recommend medical insurance suitable for people over eighty.
Xue Xiaozhou was at the hospital; his mother was having surgery today. He sent Hu Manli the account and password for the company website and asked Hu Manli to check it herself. Hu Manli immediately transferred 1000 yuan as a慰问金 (consolation money). Hu Manli logged into the Taiying International Insurance Company website using Xue Xiaozhou's account and found that the Elderly Care Medical Insurance was suitable for people over eighty.
Second Aunt couldn't reach Ding Zhiyuan, so she had to call Hu Manli. Ding Zhiyuan was staying in the school office and stubbornly turned off his phone; he didn't want to see Qiu Lisu. Hu Manli went to the school to find Ding Zhiyuan and told him about his Second Uncle coming to Shanghai for treatment. Ding Zhiyuan immediately went to the hotel to find his Second Uncle and Second Aunt.
Second Uncle asked Ding Zhiyuan to help find a doctor for the surgery. Ding Zhiyuan was very embarrassed. Second Uncle was very angry. Second Aunt hadn't originally planned to ask Ding Zhiyuan; Hu Manli had always taken them to see doctors before. Second Aunt complained that Ding Zhiyuan shouldn't have separated from Hu Manli. Ding Zhiyuan took his Second Uncle and Second Aunt to the hospital to queue for a consultation. There were many people at the hospital.
Ding Zhiyuan queued for a long time, with eighty people still ahead. Second Aunt queued for him. Second Uncle complained that he shouldn't have separated from Hu Manli. Ding Zhiyuan had no choice but to admit that he had feelings for another woman. Second Uncle couldn't help but complain about him. Xue Xiaozhou waited anxiously outside the operating room. Wu Ya accompanied him. Ding Zhiyuan finally reached the front after queuing for a long time.
The attending doctor asked Second Uncle to undergo related examinations. Second Uncle firmly refused. He had already done many examinations in his hometown and just wanted to have the surgery early. Second Aunt disliked that the doctor was young, and Second Uncle spoke maliciously to the doctor. The doctor, in a fit of anger, drove them away. Second Aunt asked Ding Zhiyuan to use his connections. Ding Zhiyuan was very embarrassed.
The department head suddenly called Ding Zhiyuan, saying someone reported him for writing a preface for Li Fendou's autobiography. Ding Zhiyuan had to call Hu Manli for help. Hu Manli recommended the Elderly Care Medical Insurance to Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen was extremely busy. Hu Manli helped him receive guests when she suddenly received a call from Ding Zhiyuan. She left the insurance policy with Mr. Chen and rushed to the hospital.
Second Aunt and Second Uncle vented loudly to Hu Manli. Hu Manli tried her best to calm them down, then called Wu Ya. Wu Ya helped contact the head of department. Hu Manli took Second Uncle and Second Aunt to see the department head. The head of department agreed to perform the surgery on Second Uncle but asked him to get re-examined. Second Uncle was unwilling but had no choice.
Hu Manli thanked Wu Ya for her help and casually asked about Xue Xiaozhou's mother's surgery. Upon learning that Xue Xiaozhou's mother's surgery was very successful, Hu Manli invited Wu Ya to come to her house for dinner with Xue Xiaozhou sometime. The hospital required a 200,000 yuan deposit. Second Aunt quickly came to Hu Manli to discuss. She happened to have 200,000 yuan, which was money for her son's marriage.
Hu Manli told her to pay the hospitalization fee first. Fortunately, Hu Manli had purchased medical insurance for them beforehand, and the insurance company would reimburse the medical expenses soon. Only then did Second Aunt feel relieved. The department head immediately saw that the preface for Li Fendou's autobiography was not written by Ding Zhiyuan. The words were awkward, and there were many grammatical errors, but it had Ding Zhiyuan's signature on it.
Ding Zhiyuan repeatedly explained that he signed it under duress. The department head asked him to prove that the signature on it was not his, otherwise, he would lose his qualification for evaluation and commendation. Second Uncle was hospitalized and kept asking to see Ding Zhiyuan. Second Aunt had to call him. Ding Zhiyuan immediately rushed back to the hospital. Ding Zhiyuan and Qiu Lisu had been in a cold war, and he had been staying in the office.
The secretary advised Qiu Lisu to call him back. Qiu Lisu didn't want to concede to him, otherwise, she would be even less able to control him in the future. Ding Zhiyuan rushed to the hospital. Second Uncle severely reprimanded him, condemning him for separating from Hu Manli. Second Aunt also chimed in from the side. Ding Zhiyuan was left speechless by the scolding. Xue Xiaozhou invited Wu Ya to dinner.
Xue Xiaozhou wanted to close another big deal and rent a place near the hospital. He said he and Wu Ya would never be apart again. Wu Ya, surprisingly, proposed breaking up. Xue Xiaozhou thought she was joking. Wu Ya didn't want to explain too much and left without finishing her meal. Xue Xiaozhou thought Wu Ya had encountered setbacks at work, so he called the department head to inquire about the situation and learned that Wu Ya had just won an award for being outstanding.
