Why Is He Still Single? Episode 8

Secrets and musings

Dr Gu’s dad is pushing YuYu to talk her into marrying quickly. There is a reason but it is initially kept secret. I am glad it was for a different reason than I thought. I feared he was dying and wanted to see his daughter be settled first. Fortunately that wasn’t the case. They finally had a conversation about her mom. Dr Gu always thought her dad just wanted to forget her and move on. When he brought her the dishes she used to make, he finally explained himself to her. This healed a rift she had held against him probably for years. YuYu trying to catch a goldfish. I have never seen a paper net like that before but it was very amusing to watch him get chided by the children for not being able to catch one. Funnier still when the stall person let him buy one.🤣 he went from a small fishbowl to a huge tank that YuYu will not ever put another fish in. It is interesting that Dr Gu’s dad chooses YuYu to confide in and that YuYu was more than happy to learn Dr Gu’s favorite childhood dishes. She recognizes that they are of similar disposition and holds her own with both of them.😂 His young neighbor is starting to reflect on what she will do when she grows up. YuYu has all the numbers for her.😂Their project is finally agreed upon but I feel for both the couple and the parents. It may seem to be easier to combine households, but privacy becomes a much bigger deal. They were wise to keep both bathrooms and add storage. Dr Gu missed a bullet with that dumpling guy. He had a legitimate complain but then he had to come back and get more involved with them after the initial apology. The contractor and designers acted like children and while they were bickering and pushing each other around Mr dumpling got hit in the face. Tbh I don’t know who really ended up hitting him. Wu gave YuYu the blame and Sun is already annoyed his workmanship is again in question. YuYu is getting the security recordings to find out exactly what happened. He is adamant about proving his innocence. This episode had a more thoughtful theme. The father/daughter relationship and remarrying after the death of a spouse. Life choices and how that effects future happiness and success. Friends sharing favorite things and memories. And why does YuYu like little women story? Is it because Dr Gu does? There was little comedy this episode but it was still enjoyable. The cast can deliver poignant as well as comedy. It continues to be an 8.5 watch for me.
