Sun Toutou saw that Ren Tianzhen was going out to find a house to live in. She tried to persuade him, saying that no one would want to hurt their own mother's feelings for the sake of an outsider. Sun Toutou couldn't help but remind Ren Tianzhen not to act foolishly. If she were Ren Tianzhen's mother, she would definitely set clear boundaries with him and not tolerate this cunning person. Ren Tianzhen firmly believed that his mother was only temporarily angry, and he was confident that he could persuade her to let Mengmeng stay.

Linglan quietly went to find her son and asked if he had feelings for Mengmeng. Ren Tianzhen immediately denied it, stating that Mengmeng was a patient and he was only fulfilling his responsibility as a doctor to take care of her. In order to keep an eye on her son, Linglan agreed to let Mengmeng continue staying with them.

In a few days, it would be the beginning of frost, and Ren Xinzheng took the students from his apprenticeship class to gather medicinal herbs. This was a critical time for the growth of Aconite, and the environment for its growth was extremely unique. Ren Tianzhen drove on the mountain road for a long time.

It was originally a dull journey, but with Sun Toutou around, the car was filled with singing and laughter. The whole process felt relaxed. Ren Tianzhen heard Sun Toutou selecting a quiet song in the car, and he couldn't help but be curious when he saw her looking thoughtfully out of the window through the rearview mirror. Sun Toutou was indeed a person with delicate thoughts.

After parking the car at the foot of the mountain, the students from the apprenticeship class had to hike for a long time to gather medicinal herbs. The process of collecting herbs itself was challenging, but nobody complained about being tired. The local villagers knew they were coming and had carefully simmered chicken soup for over five hours. As the aroma filled the air, everyone eagerly picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Ren Xinzheng explained to his family that this chicken soup was very nourishing and contained Aconite, which had a mild toxicity, so it needed to be simmered for over four hours. Sun Toutou enjoyed it with relish. When she heard that there was a mild toxicity, she pretended to be surprised and claimed that as an inheritor, she couldn't eat anything poisonous. After all, countless people were still waiting for them to make contributions. Sun Toutou's words made everyone laugh.

The local villagers greatly admire Ren Xinzheng. Originally, their area was a remote and underdeveloped place, but when Ren Xinzheng arrived and assessed the mountain road, he found it suitable for growing Aconite. He led the villagers in cultivating medicinal herbs and implemented a system for timely collection. Finally, the villagers received wages, and many of them were lifted out of poverty. Ren Xinzheng provided planting techniques, signed contracts, and ensured that the villagers had no worries about future sales.

Ren Xinzheng not only inspected the growth of the medicinal herbs but also provided free medical consultations to the local villagers, spreading knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine. The numerous students around Ren Xinzheng could always feel his immense love and outstanding virtue. "Deyi shuangxin" seems to be the perfect phrase to describe him.

Yang Xiaohong checked in with everyone at the hotel. Despite having two staff members at the front desk, only one of them was busy. Yang Xiaohong had some complaints about this level of service but stopped pursuing the matter when Shiyuanyan was present.

Upon entering the room, Yang Xiaohong noticed that none of the towels had been changed since check-in. She believed that hotel towels should be changed for each guest, and she couldn't accept the situation. She demanded that all towels must be dry and clean. However, the staff member insisted on not changing them. Just as the two were about to argue, Sun Toutou hurriedly came over with clothes in her hands and asked if there was a washing machine available. She wanted to use it to wash her dirty clothes. Sun Toutou and the staff member were able to communicate, and they discovered that the hotel's washing machine was filled with potatoes and sweet potatoes. They removed the produce and cleaned the machine before starting to wash the clothes.

Originally, the hotel staff didn't know how to use the fully automatic washing machine. Sun Toutou wrote down detailed instructions for the staff to follow. However, the staff member was worried about taking on too much responsibility and making mistakes in the future. They couldn't help but complain. Last time, they fell off a chair and broke their leg because they took the initiative to clean the windows. So, the staff member had learned a lesson and no longer volunteered for tasks.

Upon hearing the staff member's concern about injuring their leg again, Sun Toutou brought out a window cleaning tool—a long retractable pole—to clean the windows. Not only did it eliminate the worry of reaching high windows, but it also ensured a thorough cleaning. The staff members were delighted to use the window cleaning tool. Ren Xinzheng noticed that everyone in the hotel, led by Sun Toutou, was enthusiastically cleaning the windows, and he nodded in satisfaction. He took this opportunity to give Yang Xiaohong some advice, encouraging her to learn from Sun Toutou's down-to-earth attitude and patience. Inspired by Sun Toutou's influence, Yang Xiaohong finally understood where she had gone wrong.

Liu Changqing brought his son, Liu Zihong, to the clinic to see Ren Xinzheng. He pleaded with Ren Xinzheng to provide a diagnosis certificate for his son's depression. Liu Zihong had excellent academic performance, but during his senior year, he became obsessed with street dancing and insisted on joining a training group. Liu Changqing didn't know how to handle his son's behavior and sought help by visiting Ren Xinzheng.

Ren Xinzheng asked Liu Zihong a few questions and found that he had a clear mind and answered fluently. It would indeed be fraudulent to provide a depression diagnosis for someone like him. Worried about offending Liu Changqing, Ren Xinzheng left the decision to Sun Toutou. Sun Toutou believed that issuing the certificate would have a negative impact on Liu Zihong's future. If he were to apply for a government position or enter prestigious universities like Tsinghua or Peking, it could affect his political clearance. Sun Toutou spoke to Liu Zihong, advising him to focus on studying this year instead. However, Liu Zihong was determined to participate in the dance competition this year and pursue an artistic path. Seeing the determination in the boy's eyes, Sun Toutou comforted Liu Changqing, suggesting that they grant the child the freedom to follow his passion for this year and openly request leave from school.
