Islands 烟火人家 Episode 3

Tao Shuna was originally in a very bad mood, but when she learned that Zhang Xiaoyan was about to return to China, her mood instantly improved and she couldn't wait to ask Liao Zhe about Zhang Xiaoyan's community. However, Liao Zhe deliberately kept her secret and took away her meal card to order food without directly telling her the address.

Suddenly a new manager Cui Baohui came to the company's operations department. He was kind and polite. He not only bought everyone coffee personally, but also remembered everyone's name. The employees were flattered by this, except Zhao Yuan who seemed a little flustered when she saw Cui Baohui, as if the two had known each other for a long time.

Meng's neighbor Sister Zhang personally sent wedding candies to show off the news that her daughter was about to get married, which made Meng Mingwei feel uncomfortable. Sister Zhang gossiped about Li Yijin's life events and felt that girls should become teachers peacefully, so that it would be easier to find a partner. But the problem is that the relationship between Meng Mingwei and her daughter is tense. Every time she sends messages or calls, she gets no response.

Cui Baohui talked to Li Yijin alone and revealed that the theater will implement a last-place elimination system this year, implying that she needs to work hard to complete the theater projects. Before Cui Baohui could finish speaking, Meng Mingwei's phone calls came frequently. Li Yijin had no choice but to answer the phone and turned off the phone after saying a few words.

Because of the elimination system, veteran employee Qian Li can no longer fish in troubled waters and make insinuations about the attitudes of other employees. Liang Man didn't care. After all, she was the backbone of the business and didn't have much sense of crisis. Li Yijin hopes to invite the famous Cranberries to star in a children's drama. Qian Li thinks that although this idea is a good one, it is very difficult to implement. Zhao Yuan suddenly resigned. Although Li Yijin did not understand, she still respected Zhao Yuan's choice.

That night, Tao Shuna saw Zhang Xiaoyan in the group and took the initiative to add him as a friend. She originally had a bad rest because her roommate stayed up late writing papers, but now she decided to spend money to rent a house, so she mentioned the matter to Meng Wanqing, who transferred 30,000 yuan to her without hesitation.

As soon as Li Yijin posted the photo on Moments, her mother, Meng Mingwei, called to question her and asked her to rely on connections to find her a job as a teacher. Li Yijin was angry at Meng Mingwei's behavior of making decisions, so he went to manager Cui Baohui and expressed that he wanted to follow up on the Cranberry project. The next morning, when Qian Li learned that Li Yijin had taken over Cranberry, she complained that she was doing one thing on the outside and another behind the scenes.

Meng Mingwei learned that Sister Zhang's daughter was in charge of recruitment at the school, so she went to see Sister Zhang in person with gifts and asked her to arrange a job for Li Yijin, and Sister Zhang readily agreed. Tao Shuna asked Meng Yian about renting a house, and Meng Yian asked her and Li Yijin to have dinner together. Li Yijin came to the hot pot restaurant first, and happened to meet Zhou Zhou at the door. When he saw him holding the dismissed box, the scene was awkward.

Meng Yian thought that both of them were looking for a house and proposed to rent together. Tao Shuna strongly agreed, but Li Yijin didn't want to trouble others, so she found an excuse to dodge. When Meng Wanqing went home for dinner, she talked a lot about Tao Shuna with Meng Mingwei. She lamented that her daughter just fell in love with Zhang Xiaoyan, and that Tao Shuna had decided to move to Zhang Xiaoyan's community and was willing to wait for him to break up.

During the meal, Tao Shuna sent photos to Meng Wanqing. The mother and daughter had a harmonious relationship and got along more like best friends. In contrast, Meng Mingwei felt disappointed because he did not receive the photos and called Li Yijin to complain. When Li Yijin and Meng Yian returned home, they saw Qiu Xia downstairs, and especially noticed the pink bow decoration on Qiu Xia's car. This kind of thing that was not in line with the couple's character aroused her suspicion.

Early the next morning, Li Yijin went to find his former agent to rent a house, and unexpectedly learned that the price of the house had already increased and there were currently no suitable houses. It happened that Tao Shuna also came to see the house and took a fancy to a duplex house, but it was expensive, with a monthly rent of more than 10,000 yuan, which Li Yijin could not afford. Tao Shuna proposed to share the rent with Li Yijin, but Li Yijin did not agree.
