Her mother has NPD, and Xu Mengyuan is driven into depression by her controlling behavior. In this little mountain village, Qin Danggui heals her bit by bit with traditional Chinese medicine. Xu Mengyuan discovers that Qin Danggui seems gentle and refined on the surface, but is a real "jealous type" in private!
"Come on, Mengyuan. When you go back to the city, make sure you live the way you want to!"
"Qin Danggui, you jerk!"
1. Danggui is a medicinal herb. I want to be the cure for you.
2. The best part is when her mother brings a blind date to meet her, and Qin Danggui immediately examines him. "The root of your nose is dim, and the philtrum is shallow and flat. Those are signs of kidney qi deficiency."
"What does kidney qi deficiency mean? That I'm no good in bed?"
3. After she goes for a walk with a male teacher, he immediately posts, "Why does nobody ever walk with me?"
The comments section explodes at once.
"What's going on? I think I saw Teacher Xu out walking with someone..."
"Dr. Qin, wake up. You don't even like going for walks!"
Xu Mengyuan: "Qin Danggui, aren't you being childish?"
Qin Danggui: "Yeah, maybe a little. So, do you want to keep me in line?"
Xu Mengyuan grew up in the city, but was assigned to a small teaching post at Fuling Village Primary School, deep in the mountains, where most of the residents are elderly people and children left behind by migrant parents. Qin Danggui is the village doctor in Fuling Village. Though the two should never have met, in a little clinic filled with the scent of herbs, they find the missing ingredient in each other's lives.
She comes to this backward village school carrying the pain of her family of origin. He tends to his family's ancestral medicine cabinet, day after day reviewing the medical records and notes his grandfather left behind.
She thought moving to the countryside was the lowest point of her life. Then, at the little clinic, she sees him treating an old person's festering wound without a hint of disgust, and realizes there is beauty here too.
She: "Why don't you go work in a big city?"
He: "There are plenty of doctors in big cities, but these people only have me. If I leave, it'll be so hard for them to get medical care..."
Only later does she understand:
True heroism is seeing life for what it is, and still being willing to stop and hold an umbrella over a stranger.
Ever since returning to the village to inherit his grandfather's traditional medicine clinic, Qin Danggui has grown accustomed to partings.
His former girlfriend left him.
His parents thought he was going nowhere.
His classmates mocked him for returning to the countryside...
When Mengyuan is moved to tears by his patience as he changes an old person's dressing, Qin Danggui feels for the first time
perhaps someone might be willing to stay for him.
