[Ordinary Greatness]

[Episode 13]

[In the name of families]

Gao Chao,

Just go with this plan.

This plan

has cost you so much time.

If there is still any deficiency,

just get it improved yourself, okay?

-Okay, got it. -That's it.

Chief Gao.

Chief! Chief!

We've gotten it clear.

It's similar to what you thought.

That woman has been leading a tough life,

and that's why she vented her anger on us.

Her husband had an affair,

and they two almost got divorced.

Her husband has separated from her for a long time.

Since she couldn't do anything with her husband,

she could only pay all her attention to her child.

Thus, she could go crazy as long as her child was not by her side.

And the woman is a difficult person in the community.

She has had conflicts with all neighbors.

And that's why she would get so restless

as long as she couldn't see her child.

We've found the root cause!

But to some extent,

she's actually a pitiful woman.

I have an idea!

We can try to persuade Xia Jie from this aspect.

After all, girls are always soft-hearted.

Maybe she will

have sympathy for the woman.

Okay, I'll try.

Just try?

You must make it!

Okay.

Hasn't Xia Jie apologized yet?

No. It seems that she hasn't.

She's somewhat stubborn.

If she doesn't apologize,

then the other side won't let the matter drop.

Then how can we get it solved?

All talking about Xia Jie?

Then it seems that Xia Jie has no other choice but to apologize.

Listen,

later when Xia Jie comes,

don't rile her.

You mean...

We should let her decide whether to apologize on her own.

Persuasion can only bring her pressure.

Xia Jie.

Xia Jie.

You can decide whether to apologize or not.

If you're still unwilling to apologize,

I can help you negotiate with our station about it.

Thank you, Yang Shu.

I have my own principles.

I'll ask you for help if there's any need.

Chief.

Chief.

Haven't you gotten your food yet?

I shall go get some food.

Me, too. Let's go together.

This guy...

Let's go get our food.

Jie.

Come, you can eat here.

Pity her?

You mean I should give her some money?

That's not what I meant.

If that's not what you meant,

then why should I sacrifice my dignity

to pity her?

Take your time and think about it.

Chief.

There's trouble again.

You know that I went to the community where Ms. Wu lives

for learning about the condition.

But someone big-mouthed told her about it.

She now thinks we're gonna make things difficult for her.

This is ridiculous.

She's now here again

in the service center.

She's already here?

She's not satisfied even though I received her.

She's asking to see you.

She's really difficult to deal with.

Yeah, she is.

Tell you what,

there's a kind of people in this world

always assuming the worst of others

regardless of the reality.

Let's go.

Did I violate the law?

Did I commit a crime?

Why do you treat me like this?

Why did you collect evidence against me all around?

Why?

You must give me a reason.

Chief.

Wang, what are you doing there?

Is this the place where you work?

Go back to your place.

Continue with your work.

Don't gather round here.

There's nothing worth looking here.

Leave.

Nice to meet you.

Dr. Wu, this is our chief.

So what?

I won't let it go even if the director's here.

I won't let it go as long as you treat me like this.

Am I a criminal? Am I a law-breaker?

Madam, look...

You neither violated the law nor committed a crime.

But your making a scene here

has disturbed

our normal order.

Well,

let's change a place for a further talk,

-okay? -Why?

You dared to treat me like that,

but now are afraid of my saying it here?

Fearing to let the crowds see your true colors?

I won't go anywhere else.

Then let's put it in this way.

If there's a medical dispute between you and your patient,

and the patient comes to your office

to make a scene,

will you think that it's appropriate?

Dr. Wu, it's not appropriate, right?

Where do you want to talk?

Well, let me reiterate it that

no one investigated you

or collected evidence against you.

Since you had conflicts with one of our police officers,

we naturally need

to fully check out the situation.

The dispute between me and that police

arose in the police station, right?

Why did you go to my community?

I didn't commit a crime, violate the law,

have an affair, or steal money.

Aren't I a just and law-abiding citizen?

I've already incurred

gossip of those idle women

in the community

because of the divorce,

but now,

if you also slander me,

how do I keep living in the community?

I...

What were you thinking?

Have you thought about my feeling?

Dr. Wu,

this is really a misunderstanding.

It's not like what you think.

We were just hoping to resolve the dispute between us

as soon as possible,

so we anyhow had to figure out a way, right?

We definitely didn't mean

to pry into your personal life.

If this makes you feel offended,

then please allow me to apologize.

Besides, you can tell me

who spread the rumors.

I shall go confront them to make it clear.

How could I know who did it?

Anyway, since it reached my ears,

it becomes obvious that

you've caused great trouble for me!

You must eliminate the ill effects on me.

I insist on that.

Ms. Wu,

we did neither... um...

spread anything against you,

nor fabricate anything against you.

If you feel offended

cuz we went to check out the condition,

then I shall apologize to you.

It's no use for you to apologize here.

I demand that

all of you involved

and the representatives of your police station

come to my community

and officially apologize to me

in front of everyone in the community.

Ms. Wu,

you're forcing out hand.

So, you refuse it?

Dr. Wu! Dr. Wu!

Please sit down. We'll figure out a way.

You can refuse to apologize, forever!

What could she possibly do next?

Nothing

but to call "12345"[informant's hot-line telephone]to report us.

I wonder how her husband endured the life with her...

You pity her husband?

You'd better pity us first.

No need.

Let's just face it no matter what comes.

Chief.

Chief.

How about this.

Just leave it

to me.

This Ms. Wu may think that

my rank is not high enough.

But

I will figure out a way to persuade her.

First, it was

caused by Xia Jie,

but she wouldn't apologize.

So, as her master, I'm also responsible for it.

Second,

I failed to get it handled properly,

and thus made the situation worsened by the woman.

So, I can no longer let you be unjustly blamed.

Come on, don't say so.

We all wok in this police station.

For Xia Jie,

you should still try to persuade her,

and criticize her if necessary.

She really got slapped in the face?

Yes.

Though it was by accident,

but it anyway happened.

Poor girl.

When you persuaded me to be her master at the beginning,

I...

I really wanted to refuse it.

Why do you mention this?

Why?

This has nothing to do with that.

You need to continue with your work,

and also take the load off your mind.

Okay?

The load on your mind has nothing to do with this Ms. Wu.

Sorry, sorry.

Let me pick up the phone.

I need to pick it up.

I have to go out for this.

You can just answer the phone here.

I have things to do in the next room.

Thanks.

It's me, Director Song.

Master.

You can't let the mistake of your station

affect the normal order of the whole bureau, can you?

That Dr. Wu

has been calling "12345" every day.

And she even went to make a scene in our provincial department.

I've received a call from our provincial department.

How do you want me to reply to it?

You're the director,

and have great capability.

You must know how to reply to it.

Fine, I really have replied to it.

I said

you would get the problem solved tomorrow.

Chief Wang.

Tomorrow is the deadline for you.

Dr. Wu.

So, you still

insist that

everyone of our police station

should apologize to you in front of the residents in your community?

Of course.

Otherwise, we don't need to talk anymore.

Fine.

You're right.

Our work made you have the misunderstanding.

And I should be blamed for this as the chief.

I'll come with my men to apologize to you face to face.

Director Ma,

you've also heard what Dr. Wu meant.

So...

let's just do as what Dr. Wu demanded.

How many people

in the community

know this issue?

Many.

Those people are really fond of gossip.

There must be a wide range of people knowing it.

Doesn't matter.

Just find all of them.

We must let all of them see our apologizing

no matter how many people

got involved.

We must get the ill effects eliminated

among all the people involved.

Okay.

I can't understand these people.

See, Dr. Wu was

divorcing her husband.

But....

It has nothing to do with them.

Why must they care so much about it!

It's way out of line.

Okay, I shall go investigate it.

No matter how widely the rumors have been spread,

we'll try our best to eliminate the ill effects.

If it's known by all house-owners,

then we can hold a house-owner meeting.

No way.

Come to my home.

Apologize to me at my home.

You've changed your mind?

I forgot to wear my hat.

Dou.

Xia.

You've changed your hairstyle!

I thought your hairstyle was good, so I also changed one.

Let's look in the mirror.

The princess of our station surely will get protected.

Definitely. Specially protected.

If only someone would apologize for us

when we made mistakes.

Alright, keep wiping the table.

Have you heard it?

What?

Since you refused to apologize,

Dou was asked to replace you to do it.

Dou.

Try your best to act like her later.

How to act?

Dou, I have an idea.

Just stand behind me after we arrive there.

When we begin to apologize,

you can start crying with hands covering your face.

Be sure to cry whether you can shed tears or not.

Of course, be sure to cover your face with hands.

When I ask you to apologize,

you should nod with hands covering your face.

And then just say sorry.

Be sure to look remorseful.

And try your best to shed tears, okay?

Well,

if you really have difficulties in it, then prepare a bottle of eyedrop.

Excuse me.

Come in.

I'll go apologize.

We can now try to adjust our mentality.

Don't feel stressful.

We're just going

to satisfy

a difficult person,

and to make her feel better.

We've already gone so far.

And let's perfect

this last step, okay?

Especially after we enter into her house,

be sure to control your mood.

No matter what she says,

we should just answer "yes"

and don't answer back, okay?

Let's try to be there for over an hour, okay?

Well.

Forty five minutes at least.

Or it will seem to be too perfunctory.

Just this unit.

This one?

I shall park here.

How about this.

Xia Jie, hold the flowers.

And let's go.

Go for it!

I told you to hold the flowers!

I shall hold the flowers.

Let's go.

Ms. Wu.

We're here on behalf of all of the Balihe police station

to apologize to you officially.

Can we get in?

Come on, come.

Dr. Wu.

Dr. Wu.

This is a token

of our deepest apology.

Come.

Dr. Wu.

The deficiencies in our work

have caused you trouble.

So we three shall

apologize to you on behalf of all of the Balihe police station.

And Cadet Xia Jie is also here

to officially apologize to you.

Please forgive us. Salute!

This... what's going on?

Seriously?

Please sit down.

Dr. Wu.

We really didn't expect that

the deficiencies in our work

brought you so much pain.

You must have thought me narrow-minded.

No, we...

My life is actually tough.

I am

a doctor

working all day long, and it's really tired.

But it doesn't matter.

I'm willing to do anything

for my family and my daughter.

My husband

just wouldn't seek progress

and earned less than me.

So I had to feed not only my daughter but also him.

But as long as everything's good in this family,

I shall be satisfied.

And I would think it worthwhile for me to do anything.

I was busy every day

while he was having an affair with another woman.

I finally found it out.

But he claimed that

it was not his fault

but mine,

for I didn't care for the family.

I was left with nothing

but my daughter.

I even feel that

she means everything to me.

Every time I can't find her,

I can accept it

if she doesn't answer the phone for one time.

But if I still can't reach her the second time I call her,

I will always imagine the worst.

I will think where she is.

She's still a kid,

and what if she meets a bad guy.

If I lose her,

there will be no meaning for me

to keep living in this world.

Well, Ms. Wu,

Our comrade Xia Jie... She's...

Look, this girl

is not losing her temper.

She's just

deeply moved.

Her father was also a policeman.

Ten years ago,

he died a glorious death

for protecting his comrades when catching a criminal,

so she and her mother rely on each other now.

Sometimes her mother just talks to her

in the same manner as you do,

so she feel touched.

Of course,

when you reported the case to us,

her attitude

and her tongue

were quite improper.

And she has also apologized to you.

Here, I'd like

to apologize to you again for her mistakes.

We hope that you can forgive her.

She's still a young girl.

Hello, Mom.

You've been in auntie's home for a while.

Maybe you can come back now.

I can book a ticket for you.

I was talking about this with your auntie just now.

She said she would send me back

and buy the ticket.

Maybe we shouldn't trouble auntie anymore.

If you don't want to come back alone,

I can ask for leave and go pick you up.

Your auntie insisted on sending me back herself.

She has already bought the ticket.

Alright, your auntie's not a stranger.

Don't worry about it.

Okay then.

Remember to tell me when you arrive.

I shall go pick you up.

Alright, mom,

I shall hang up now.

Missy, do you still remember me?

Why don't you go home?

Just go home early,

or your mom will worry about you.

Can I just wait a little longer?

Are you able to see your dad?

You know my dad?

I heard it from your mom.

Sorry, I asked too much.

I know that my dad made mistakes,

and betrayed my mom.

My dad also said so.

But I'm still willing to be with my dad.

It's happy to be with my dad.

But it can also make me feel sorry for my mom.

Missy,

I know your name is Jing, right?

My name's Yuan Yajing, also Jing.

Do you have a We-chat account?

We can add each other as friends on We-chat.

Okay.

Let me scan your QR code.

Come.

Okay.

I'm a police officer in the Balihe police station.

My name's Xia Jie.

Don't cry.

Jing.

Life's not easy for your mom.

You should care for her and understand her, you know?

Now you can contact me through We-chat.

If you need any help

or have something to ask and tell,

you can just send a message to me, okay?

Good girl.

She's a poor woman.

Come.

Isn't this Ms. Wu's daughter?

Miss,

why don't you go home?

Your mom will worry about you if she can't see you.

Just go home now, okay?

See you, Miss.

Don't forget it.

Bye.

Xia Jie.

What did you say to her?

Just a casual chat.

Xia Jie.

This Ms. Wu

may get emotional when seeing you,

so you should avoid if there are issues about her family.

Alright, let's go back.

Jie.

I've seriously thought about what you said to me.

Master, my attitude was not good at that time.

Please allow me to apologize to you.

No, Jie.

I really didn't talk to you in a proper manner,

and made you feel uncomfortable.

It might be because...

Master,

it has been ten years since my father died.

Let's just leave it to the past.

You're now my master.

You can just treat me as an ordinary disciple.

You can totally criticize me or order me.

Don't worry about me too much, okay?

I heard that the three leaders all went there.

Xia Jie also went there.

She finally apologized.

There's nothing wrong.

Even the leaders went to apologize.

Guys, eating right now?

Chief.

Braised fish!

Chief Cheng. Chief Cheng.

Get me two braised fishes.

Or later

these guys will eat them up,

you know...

Okay. Two fishes!

Xia Jie, you first.

No, master.

Xincheng.

Chief.

Everyone's here, huh!

Well, I...

Zhigang, sit down.

I have something to say.

You've heard about the issue concerning Ms. Wu.

Before we went to her home,

all leaders of our station had similar opinions

to yours.

But we think it worthwhile after we went there.

We police

may be not able to help everyone,

but if our bearing the grievance

can make someone

live a better life,

then it will also make our work more worthwhile.

And our bearing the grievance will really be worth it.

Right?

I also have something else to say here.

We are in a era

that's totally different from the era

when I became a policeman.

The police at that time were with great authority.

When we went on duty at that time,

we also didn't carry guns.

But when the police began to speak,

everyone would keep silent.

But now,

when we go out to enforce the law,

there are always people holding phones

to film us, and monitor us

from all angles.

But we can also see it in a new perspective.

It shows that people are more aware of the law and rules.

They become to have the awareness

to safeguard their rights and interests,

and higher requirements for the police

to enforce the law.

And that's why we need

to improve our law enforcement

with better ideas

and more standard acts.

And we should enhance our law enforcement capacity

and uphold the dignity of the law and the authority of the police

under such law-enforcing environment.

This is how I think about

and reflect on it.

And I've shared it with you,

hoping that we can make joint efforts

to face the new tasks.

There must be applause here!

Come on, don't do that.

Stop it.

Braised fish.

Mom, look at you.

How can you let auntie drag the large case.

Your auntie wouldn't let me do it.

This is not heavy.

Sister,

I've sent you back to Jie unscathed.

Jie, just go home with your mom.

Take good care of your mom.

Auntie, you're...

I'm not here just for escorting your mom.

I'm here for attending the 40th-anniversary reunion of my class.

They've booked a hotel for me.

I shall go there later.

I'll come to see you when free.

Go home with your mom.

Your auntie's life is more colorful as she grows older.

But look at mine...

Not at all.

Auntie, which hotel will you live in?

My car's here.

Let me drive you there.

You don't need to.

Look, they've come to pick me up.

I'm here.

You're here!

You're finally here this time.

You can just go home.

Auntie, take care.

Okay, okay.

You haven't changed at all.

That car.

Doesn't matter.

Mom, let's go home.

Let's go home.

Let's go.

Let's go, don't look at them anymore.

Mom, the meal's ready.

Jie.

Let's ask the bureau

to get you a clerical job

that's more relaxing

with no need to run errands outside, okay?

Mom, why are you saying this again?

Actually,

I just don't want you to suffer anything.

It's now just you and me relying on each other

with no one else protecting us.

What if you get wronged?

Mom.

Did you call the police station again?

Yes, I did.

If I hadn't made the phone call,

you would have never told me that Wang Shouyi

forced you to apologize to others.

Even if you keep it from me,

I can still figure it out.

You've promised me that

you won't interfere in my work anymore!

That was just a casual remark.

You're my daughter,

not a stranger.

How can I not care about you?

About this Ms. Wu,

if I had been there,

I definitely would have gone to her.

Mom, please don't do that.

If you go to her,

I shall quit the job and never be a police officer.

I'm really treated well in this police station.

Then why did Wang Shouyi and others

force you

to apologize to others?

Couldn't they let someone else go apologize?

Have they forgotten

what they said

in front of your dad's coffin?

Mom.

My dad is forever the hero in my heart.

But,

my work and my life

shouldn't be under the influence of him anymore.

Mom, I...

I'm just consulting with you about it.

Why do you cry again?

Jie.

How could you say such words?

When I was pregnant with you,

your dad just wanted a boy.

He thought he could personally teach a boy

to grow up to be a good policeman.

Later, after I gave birth to you,

your dad just felt that

you were exactly the kid that he expected.

When you were young,

every time when your dad came home after work,

he would hold you and be reluctant to let go of you.

Before your dad sacrificed,

I kept calling his name in his ears.

He was trying to say something.

He tried hard.

With his last bit of strength,

he called Jie, Jie...

He was thinking about you at the end of his life.

But now you think he has influenced you?

How about me?

Am I even more despised?

Mom, don't say so.

That was not what I meant.

I just want to beg you

to let me work and live on my own, okay?

Or I shall leave this home.

Zhao Jiwei, make way.

Dawei, stop it.

I won't.

Stop it.

Stop it, Dawei.

Couldn't you stop?

I shall tickle you!

Tickle me? Seriously?

Stop, stop, stop!

I call a truce!

Alright, thank you.

Let's have a rest.

Okay.

-Okay. -I really appreciate it...

Why hasn't Xia Jie been back yet?

Right.

Didn't she call you?

No.

That's enough, I'm exhausted.

You can get off now.

You can get off, do you hear me?

Zhao Jiwei! Li Dawei!

Get off.

We're helping you to exercise, right?

Idiot.

Xia Jie's mom came back home today.

She won't come here today.

How did you know that?

I asked her.

Why didn't she tell us in the We-chat group?

She asked me to tell you.

You should told us earlier.

This is for Xia Jie.

This is mine.

Go away!

Give me money.

You want me to spit it out?

Spit it out!

Li Dawei, it's disgusting!

You... how can you be so disgusting!

Give me money.

Bro. Bro.

Give me money. Give me money.

Dawei, you haven't been home for a long time.

Mom misses you

and wants to make dumplings for you.
