> Octogenarian, and The 90S Recap
Joey wanted to drink to bolster her courage before going to find Qiao Xiaobao. She pulled Guo Sanshuang to drink with her. Guo Sanshuang excused himself by saying he had quit drinking, letting Joey pour for herself. Joey threatened and intimidated him, so Guo Sanshuang had no choice but to drink with her. Joey poured out her grievances to him, fueled by the alcohol.
Guo Sanshuang suggested she first learn to love Qiao Xiaobao, and took the opportunity to ask who Qiao Xiaobao's father was. Joey regretted being blind back then and completely denied the man's existence. Ye Xiaomei was distraught. She called her best friend out late at night to complain. Her best friend saw that she was jealous, but Ye Xiaomei vehemently denied it.
The next morning, Ye Xiaomei came to the Activity Department and saw Guo Sanshuang sleeping soundly on the sofa. She sarcastically mocked him, forbidding him from staying in the nursing home. Guo Sanshuang then remembered he had blacked out last night. Ye Xiaomei found a long strand of woman's hair on his neck and angrily turned to leave. As Ye Xiaomei left, she saw Joey coming to find Guo Sanshuang.
Joey repeatedly thanked Ye Xiaomei, and even distributed fruits to Bu Gaoxing and Grandpa Hou to curry favor with them. Ye Xiaomei was speechless with anger. Joey brought breakfast for Guo Sanshuang, falsely claiming that Guo Sanshuang had been holding her all night. Guo Sanshuang, worried about gossip, quickly took her to the Activity Department, pretending that Joey was his aunt. However, Joey was relentless, clinging to Guo Sanshuang affectionately. Guo Sanshuang desperately struggled to break free from her embrace.
From a distance, Joey saw Ye Xiaomei staring at the Activity Department and realized that Ye Xiaomei liked Guo Sanshuang. She deliberately acted intimately with Guo Sanshuang, flirting with him. Ye Xiaomei angrily turned and left. Guo Sanshuang rushed out to explain, but Ye Xiaomei wasn't buying it. She severely chastised him, telling him to take Joey outside to be intimate. Guo Sanshuang forcibly drove Joey away.
Hu Meng learned from her son that her unit leader wanted her to show up for appearance's sake. She lied, claiming she was traveling in Australia. Hu Meng carefully selected a few scenic photos from abroad and hastily posted them on her Moments. Her former colleagues immediately called her, asking to meet after she returned to China. Grandpa Hou invited Hu Meng to see puppies. Hu Meng left in a hurry, leaving her phone on the bed before going out.
Grandma Gui passed by Hu Meng's room and saw oranges she liked to eat on the table. She went in to take some to eat. A colleague happened to call Hu Meng, so Grandma Gui answered it, exposing Hu Meng's lie about being abroad. She even held the phone up, allowing the colleague to tour the nursing home. Halfway there, Hu Meng remembered she had forgotten her phone.
She rushed back to get it and saw Grandma Gui on a video call with her friend using her phone. She was dumbfounded. She severely reprimanded Grandma Gui and, in a fit of pique, shut herself in her room and cried uncontrollably. Grandma Gui quickly went to apologize. Bu Gaoxing and others couldn't stand Hu Meng's vain behavior and harshly lectured her. Hu Meng then picked up a feather duster and came out to chase and hit Bu Gaoxing.
Wu Hui rushed over upon hearing the news to comfort Hu Meng. Hu Meng adamantly insisted that Grandma Gui had stolen her phone and violated her privacy. Grandma Gui was so scared that she hid in a corner, trembling. Suddenly, a community leader came to inspect the nursing home. Ye Xiaomei accompanied him on a tour. Suddenly, a cup was thrown from Hu Meng's room, landing right at the leader's feet. The leader was startled.
Ye Xiaomei quickly went over to investigate. Hu Meng continued to cry and make a scene. Grandma Gui repeatedly apologized and even offered her oranges to eat. Hu Meng was ungrateful, spoke harshly to her, and pushed Grandma Gui away with a wave of her hand. Grandma Gui lost her balance and hit a table corner. The trophy on the table fell to the ground and shattered.
Hu Meng was immediately enraged by humiliation, condemning Grandma Gui for personally causing the death of her own grandson. Grandma Gui fainted from excessive grief. Ye Xiaomei and Wu Hui quickly sent her to the hospital. The leader downstairs heard everything clearly and quietly left. Wu Hui contacted Grandma Gui's son, but he made an excuse and did not come. Bu Gaoxing couldn't stand Hu Meng's actions and verbally attacked her. Grandpa Hou strongly defended Hu Meng.
The two started an intense argument at odds with each other, which Wu Hui fortunately arrived in time to stop. Due to frequent incidents, the nursing home failed its star rating evaluation. Ye Xiaomei had no choice but to take down the plaque at the entrance. She came to negotiate with Hu Meng, advising her to move out first and wait until Grandma Gui's matter had settled. Hu Meng packed her luggage and resolutely left the nursing home.
Hu Meng returned home disheartened, seeing her house in a mess. She was furious and told her son, Changqing, to send Grandma Gui a flower basket tomorrow. Ye Xiaomei and Guo Sanshuang meticulously cared for Grandma Gui. Unexpectedly, Grandma Gui's son sent a lawyer to handle the matter. The lawyer went to the nursing home to understand the course of events.
