Family episode 5 recap and spoilers

Episode 5 recap: The Wang Hongcouple were buying tickets to leave.

Gu Xiaomeng, who had woken up from a nightmare, got up in the middle of the night. She knew her parents couldn't continue living this way, so she hoped Lyu Xiang could go talk to them. If it was difficult for him, she would go talk to them herself. No matter whose parents, they should understand how difficult it is for young people. Lyu Xiang was afraid Gu Xiaomeng and Liu Meiqin would conflict, so he planned to talk to them himself. Gu Xiaomeng took her mother-in-law shopping.

Lyu Xiang proactively approached Liu Meiqin, but didn't know how to start. He sighed as he waited for Liu Meiqin to ask why he was worried. Liu Meiqin had already seen through it all, and directly pointed out that she had been living here a long time, and the young couple might not be happy about it, especially Gu Xiaomeng. Liu Meiqin said directly that if the Wang Hong couple left, she would leave too, and wouldn't cause them any trouble.

Gu Xiaomeng bought shoes for Wang Hong and even tied her shoelaces herself, which made Wang Hong very happy. She didn't expect the high-level teacher at school to humble herself in front of her like this. Liu Meiqin took the initiative to say she would leave, but it made Lyu Xiang a little embarrassed. He kept saying it was good to live here with more people. Liu Meiqin knew she was just causing Lyu Xiang more trouble, and she knew Gu Xiaomeng wanted her to leave. The more Lyu Xiang insisted, the more his male chauvinism came out, insisting that Liu Meiqin stay, even going to persuade Gu Xiaomeng, until Liu Meiqin thanked Lyu Xiang and went back to her room, then Lyu Xiang realized he had fallen into a trap.

Gu Xiaomeng showed the Wang Hong couple photos of her and Lyu Xiang's daily life, letting them understand the happiness of young people together. She also admitted that the arrival of the elders had indeed changed their lives, though they had felt another kind of love, many things had changed. She also showed them recent photos of the messy house and the vegetable garden that had replaced the flowers.

Lyu Zhigao and Wang Hong naturally understood the situation and agreed to buy train tickets to go back in a couple of days, but they were still a bit unhappy. When Gu Xiaomeng came back, the matter had been successfully resolved. Although Lyu Xiang said he had also almost succeeded, Gu Xiaomeng knew it wasn't that easy. Lyu Xiang hoped Gu Xiaomeng could also give Liu Meiqin some time to adapt, and Gu Xiaomeng agreed, after all, any progress was a good thing.

Lyu Xiang gave money to Gu Xiaosong, Liu Meiqin and Lyu Zhigao's couple, so the four of them could go out together, but Gu Xiaosong left first because he wanted to talk to Nan ge about a business matter. Wang Hong began to suspect that Gu Xiaosong had secretly saved money, but Lyu Zhigao didn't mind.

Nan ge and Gu Xiaosong discussed the matter of the Kangli factory. But Kangli had a condition that they needed to find someone to do a fake marriage to transfer the assets and avoid being found by the ex-husband. Nan ge was also willing to co-invest 500,000 with Gu Xiaosong to buy the factory, but he required Gu Xiaosong to first transfer 1 million to his card.

Gu Xiaosong thought about it briefly and agreed. He thought since he had seen Nan ge's pregnant wife and had been to his house for a meal, he wouldn't be afraid of being cheated. When Lyu Xiang and Gu Xiaomeng came to ride the roller coaster, they received a call from Liu Meiqin, who refused to go back and even claimed that Lyu Xiang had arranged for her to continue staying.

Gu Xiaomeng was in a bad mood and insisted on continuing to ride the roller coaster, couldn't help but shout loudly on it, which was captured by the big screen. Lyu Xiang was afraid Gu Xiaomeng was unhappy, so he immediately bought the photo, but to his surprise, Gu Xiaomeng smiled when she saw it.

Liu Meiqin came to find Lyu Xiang privately, blaming him for going back on his word. She said he had told her she could stay, but Gu Xiaomeng completely ignored her.

At this time, Gu Xiaosong called, and this gave Lyu Xiang a chance to go outside to take the call. Gu Xiaosong brought Lyu Xiang the information about the Kangli factory, hoping Lyu Xiang would lend him money to invest, but Lyu Xiang felt these things looked unreliable and hoped Gu Xiaosong would also withdraw his plans.

However, Gu Xiaosong claimed this matter was real, because he had registered his marriage with someone else, so he was willing to give Lyu Xiang a low-price share of the factory. When Kangli and Gu Xiaosong came out of the registration office, they repeatedly emphasized that they would divorce after the two parties' business was completed. Seeing the marriage certificate, Lyu Xiang scolded Gu Xiaosong, saying that if Gu Xiaomeng found out about this, she would certainly scold him to death.

The school required Gu Xiaomeng to give a public lecture, and everyone in the class expressed their support, offering suggestions. After class discussion, they decided to have Gu Xiaomeng speak about The Old Man and the Sea, and they even made a professional PowerPoint presentation. The enthusiasm in the class was extremely high, and Gu Xiaomeng was also attracted by these lovely children, each of whom had their own assigned role, except for Peng Fei, who sat in the back, rolling his eyes and not saying a word.

Gu Xiaosong was still short 200,000, and he repeatedly begged Lyu Xiang for help, promising that after this matter was over, he would take Liu Meiqin away. Lyu Xiang was tempted and agreed to give him the money, not even expecting him to pay it back, as long as he could just get the marriage issue resolved. Gu Xiaosong promised to find the right opportunity to tell Gu Xiaomeng, and after Lyu Xiang confirmed the reliability of this matter, he finally compromised.

Peng Fei privately found Gu Xiaomeng to talk to her alone, believing that this public lecture was not as simple as it seemed. Gu Xiaomeng couldn't help but smile, as she didn't expect Peng Fei to still care about this matter. Seeing Gu Xiaomeng smile, Peng Fei felt he might have been interfering in something unnecessary, so he didn't say anything else and coolly turned and left.

In the evening, Wang Hong announced that they had already bought train tickets to leave the day after tomorrow, and they also needed to leave some private space for the young people. Liu Meiqin also immediately expressed that the words she had said that day still counted.

The vice principal also privately found Gu Xiaomeng, asking her to do well on the public lecture, saying that if she did well this time, they planned to promote it. He also said the teaching could be innovative, but not too unconventional.

The vice principal also asked about Peng Fei's situation, and Gu Xiaomeng said she had her own methods here, but it would take time for him to adapt. She believed Peng Fei was angry because his father had transferred him to this school without permission. The vice principal thanked Gu Xiaomeng for her care and concern for the children, saying that although he was the principal, he was also a father.
