In Guirong's heart, neighbors are relatives, and modifying clothes, helping to take care of the house, and sending couriers are all a gesture for her. Slowly, if there is anything that cannot be erased, come to the "Le Rongrong Studio" to chatter, most of them can untie the knot in their hearts, and Yu Guirong is also affectionately called "Mother's Family" by the residents.
