Thank you

Hi

Is there any teacher's family

looking for domestic helper here

pretty maid

OK

Ah

Dad

OK

Thank you

Where did you go?

Why won't he answer the phone?

Dad

You've agreed

to go to the U.S. with me?

We've already claimed our boarding passes

Why did you change your mind at the last minute?

Dad

Don't be such a child at a critical moment like this

I'm not leaving

I must stay here with your mom

Dad

When Mom was still alive

you wouldn't even brush your teeth unless she pasted your toothbrush!

Now you are home alone

with no one

to care for you

how can I not worry?

Ah

I just want to keep her company

What's there to worry about anyway?

Who is it?

Are you all right?

Hi,

is this Professor He's home?

I'm a housemaid,

sent by the employment agency

We don't need maid service

You can go

Look!

Here is your ad:

domestic help wanted.

To care for an academic elderly.

Must be good at housework, patient,

and properly educated(junior high school or above).

It says you are willing to pay an above-market rate.

Oh, I'm sorry,

but we are moving,

now we don't need domestic help anymore.

Wherever you go,

the elderly still needs to be cared of.

So you can take care of any "type" of elderlies?

Sure!

I'm the pro!

I don't want any maid!

I don't want any maid!

Dad

look at you! You are not willing to go to the U.S. with me,

and you don't want domestic help either.

What do you suppose I should do?

You will have to make a choice,

Go to the U.S.,

or let her stay.

Ah..

Let her stay then!

So I get the job?

Thank you!

Actually

there are indeed certain types of elderlies

I can't handle,

like those who practice martial arts.

I've told you so many times!

I've made up my mind for a divorce

Professor He

I'm Zhao Chunzhi.

You may call me Chunzhi.

I'm counting on your kind support from now on.

This is the Elder contact card.

So you can still move huh?

Great!

I just want to trim your nails.

Don't ever call me again!

I'm very busy.

Bye bye!

I only heard of Wenzhou people looking for maids,

but never any Wenzhou people working as maids!

But Ma'am,

there are poor folks even in rich towns.

My father is a native of Wenzhou too,

so we are actually fellow townsmen!

Really?

That's wonderful!

It brings us so much closer!

Don't count your blessings just yet!

My dad can be really difficult sometimes.

You better brace yourself!

That's OK!

I have elderlies and kids at home too.

You leave home and work like this,

what is your husband doing?

No good!

You are divorced?

Ma'am,

no need to concern yourself with such trivialities really.

How old is your kid?

I have no child.

And I'm divorcing my husband too.

But why?

He is no good!

Please open up the trunk.

Old people

When they reach certain age,

can be very childish,

you must indulge them more.

En

Rest assured.

I know when to indulge them

and when not to.

Here, I'm paying you one month's salary in advance.

And here is our contract.

Keep the home keys

with you at all times,

and be careful not to lock yourself out.

OK

No worries.

I really should be going.

I am counting on you for my father.

I hope you take good care of him.

En

Thank you.

Take care.

Madam, see you.

Take care.

Professor He!

Professor He!

Professor He!

I passed the grocery market just now

and bought some Vegitables.

I've recorded the details in the notebook.

The total expense is 33 Yuan.

Maid, come here!

Professor He,

My name is not Maid.

I am Chunzhi.

Whatever.

Here is one month's payment.

Now go!

What do you mean?

Where do you want me to go?

Wherever you are from!

You are such an interesting family,

every one being so eager to pay me.

Now we are even.

You can leave.

You want to pay me off?

I have the right to decide whether to hire someone!

Professor He!

What do you want?

Are you truly a professor?

Do you have any idea how law works?

Am I breaking any law here?

This is law.

Now leave!

What do you want?

What is wrong with you?!

How dare you tear up the contract!

But you know what?

There are actually two copies.

The one you just shredded

is the one Ms. Tian wants me to give you.

Mine is here.

Ms. Tian employed me

to take care of her father.

You have no right to terminate the contract between her and me.

What is wrong with you?

You did food shopping only once,

and I'm paying you one month's salary.

You think you get a raw deal?

Of course,

very raw deal!

You may ask me to leave,

but since you've paid me one month's salary,

I must finish one month's worth of work.

Then Give me back my money,

and leave.

That's really cheap!

A deal is a deal,

I'm staying.

Woolf

Professor He,

Dinner is ready.

Professor He,

Sorry.

Professor He,

Dinner is ready.

Sorry

Professor He,

Eat.

Professor He,

you are such a learned person,

having read so many books.

So you are fond of foreign books?

This one here

Right

This,

Is it?

Is she Woolf?

Excuse me, I need to go to bathroom.

Professor He,

Professor He,

How come the batbroom door is locked?

I can't hold it!

Professor He,

Professor He,

Open the door

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Miss, you going somewhere?

Where to?

You want a ride?

Offer you a discount.

We can talk in the car.

Want invoices? Cigarettes?

Miss?

You looking for accommodation?

I don't know.

Haven't made up my mind yet.

How much is it?

50 Yuan.

So expensive!

Do we have a deal with 30 Yuan?

Mom.

Where are you?

Have you eaten?

I'm in my dorm room.

Mom,

I've found a job,

it pays well.

Now that you are away,

I fear Jiangping

He is going to take Xiaowan away sooner or later.

Mom,

do not worry yourself about this.

Is Xiaowan asleep?

Yes.

Let me tell you.

Jianping was here today,

bringing along a lot of gifts for Xiaowan.

no matter what..

He is her father after all,

Mom, I'm tired,

I must go to bed now,

I have to work tomorrow.

Bye!

Professor He,

What the hell is going on here?

Ah, my ivy!

Who did this?

Ma'am,

Your ivy

Really needs some pruning,

or

it won't bear fruit.

Who are you anyway?

It's none of your business!

Who gives you the right to prune my ivy?

Your ivy

is blocking our light.

You think I should do nothing about it?

I'm not wasting my time with you.

Shame on you!

You

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

Professor He,

I didn't know people at your age,

could still move so deftly.

the bathroom door

I will ask someone to repair

I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

I don't accept your apology!

The study is my turf,

and the kitchen is yours.

And from today on,

you are not allowed to enter my turf,

nor shall you knock on my door.

Once the one-month limit is reached,

you must leave!

Who is it?

Hi Ma'am.

I have a parcel for you.

80 boxes of cleaniing agents.

The total amount is 1,680 Yuan.

Would you kindly sign for them?

So many cleaning agents?

Wait a minute.

Professor He,

did you order all this stuff?

Don't know!

Are you sure it's the right address?

Isn't this Mr. He's home?

Someone ordered these from the TV shopping channel.

Professor He,

Haven't I told you?

Don't knock on my door!

So much spend.

Why are being so hard on yourself?

I thought you've designated the kitchen as "my turf".

I'm hungry.

I've boiled chicken broth for you.

You drink some soup first,

to get your stomach warmed,

and I will cook you some noodles.

Why are you being so harsh on yourself?

First-time maid huh?

No!

I've seen so many maids.

You are different.

Am I lousy?

Just go and cook me the noodles,

so you can leave early.

Are you OK?

You are running a fever.

Come.

Let's go to the hospital,

Come on!

Come.

Take some rest.

I will go and clean up your study.

Don't touch my stuff!

Fine.

I will do some cleaning

and bring your stuff here.

Put them in the drawer!

I should be OK after getting the flu shot.

You can leave now!

No,

the doctor has told me,

you must be put under close observation tonight.

What if the fever returns?

What if nobody accompanies you?

I will be in the living room.

If you need anything.

Just call me.

Professor He,

are you Ok?

Sick like this,

you are still resisting help from maid?

How can you possibly survive on your own?

Xiaowan

Xiaowan

Xiaowan

Professor He,

Professor He,

have some porridge!

You are being so helpful,

I guess the one-month payment is money well spent.

I'm feeling much better,

it's OK now.

You can leave!

You

I've never seen anyone as mean as you!

I did nothing to offend you,

I'm just trying to be a good maid here.

Why do you hate me so much?

Look how ill you are,

and you are still playing tough?

When you were running a high fever last night,

why didn't you ask me to leave?

Now that I've cooked you the breakfast,

you decide to dismiss me!

What is your problem?

Who do you think I am?

Do I look like someone who could neglect my ill client,

take the money and leave?

You think I'm that kind of person?

Like I said earlier,

I work for Ms. Tian.

If you want me to leave,

let her call me.

Professor He,

I'm sorry for this morning,

I was being too emotional.

You eat nothing and drink nothing.

Are you still pushing me hard?

If Ms. Tian knows about this,

she will be so worried!

If you want me to leave,

You have to be back to health.

If I leave now,

What if something happens to you?

I won't forgive myself for the rest of my life.

What if, what if!

What could possibly happen to me?

Are you cursing me?

All right!

Now that you said this,

I'm not serving you any more.

I'm leaving!

And I will call Ms. Tian,

telling her that you are sick

and you won't allow me to stay!

Hello, Ms. Tian?

The thing is...

Professor He is fallen ill,

he is running a 40°C high fever...

Stop it!

I will eat!

I will eat!

Who is it?

I heard Professor He is ill.

Is he OK?

He is fine now.

Good as new.

Let her in!

Have a seat!

Professor He

Have a seat!

You too!

Huh?

I ask you to sit there too.

Oh.

Would you like some tea?

Oh.

No thanks.

Have some.

No, I'm good.

So do I make the tea or not?

I heard

you are ill,

so I'm here to check on you,

and pay tribute to your wife too.

Actually,

on the day the tragedy happened,

I only wanted to show you

an original painting by Chagall.

Really.

That's all.

You are a good girl.

My wife was suffering from depression,

and I wasn't paying enough attention.

Please don't blame her.

Actually I'm the one to blame.

You can't say that.

When my wife was still alive,

she spoke very highly of you.

Professor He,

you take care!

I

I should get going.

Bye

Professor He,

these flowers are so beautiful!

Throw them away!

But why?

Just throw them away!

What is wrong with you?

Changing your attitude so abruptly.

I'm not your female student.

You don't have to be so mean.

What?

Am I wrong?

You used me as a shield just now,

and now you are treating me as a punching bag.

Professor He,

that female student of yours...

Don't ever mention her again in my home.

So you decide to let me stay?

You still have to leave once the one-month limit is reached.

Ah?

You keep asking me to leave,

For this matter,

we need to talk.

What's there to talk about?

I've seen through you.

You are...

Not worth my kindness.

You are incapable of gratitude!

Sure I will leave,

I may find a better employer elsewhere!

I don't want to work for you anyway,

being treated like dirt.

To me...

You act like you can't stand me for a single day,

always trying to get rid of me.

But if I leave like this,

I won't be able to get over it for the rest of my life.

Now you must tell me clearly,

did I do a lousy job,

or you have other reasons for behaving like this.

It's not you.

Good.

If it's not me,

I will have no regrets.

Is that all?

Ah?

Wait a minute.

I will leave,

but only under one condition.

Name it.

You must learn to do housework,

and learn to take care of yourself.

Only then can I leave without qualms.

I eat at the university cafeteria

and do my laundry using washing machine,

I don't need to learn anything.

But what about when the school is off?

Do you know how to operate a washing machine?

Do you know what clothes can be machine washed,

and what clothes can not?

Do you have the slightest idea?

Are you wiping eyeglasses?

Or Floor?

You didn't mention

in which direction I should swipe the mop.

You don't follow any particular direction when mopping the floor,

you just try and make it clean.

But what's the criteria for "cleanliness"?

Look,

you swipe it like this,

to remove the dirt and everything.

Now that's called "clean".

Got it.

You done this before?

First time in my life!

Follow other people's order.

Remember the 80 boxes of cleaning agents you bought?

They could last for a long time.

Did I order them?

Don't tell me you forgot!

I've recorded it in my home finance notebook.

Let's check out some seafood here!

7 Yuan? Can you do better than that?

No, I can't

See that?

It's very good for health.

Here it is

What's this?

Baby cabbage.

You want some?

No

I'm just asking her what kind of this vegetable it is.

How much is this?

18 Yuan per 500 grams.

Alright, I will have some of this.

Ah

Professor He,

what's wrong?

Yan'an,

Yan'an,

I'm innocent!

Please don't leave me!

Yan'an,

Yan'an,

Professor He,

are you OK?

Professor He,

Professor He,

Please don't leave me!

I'm Chunzhi!

I'm Chunzhi!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

That female student of mine you met earlier,

her name is Yan Hua.

She meant well actually.

She took me to an art exhibition that day,

but Yan'an misinterpreted it.

On the spur of the moment,

she committed suicide in the bathroom.

Professor He

In my whole life,

I've never felt guilty toward anyone,

except her.

And now I don't even have the chance to make it up to her.

Professor He,

don't be too sad.

She reacted so violently,

only because she loved you so much.

She had gone.

If she knew you would be so heartbroken

and cry so hard for her after she was gone,

she'd regret what she did.

People

are all stubborn fools,

always obsessed with love and hatred when alive,

but when you're dead,

when all you have is your soul,

nothing really matters.

how much you love her,

Up there in heaven,

she can see

and hear.

Professor He,

stop being so hard on yourself.

Thank you, Chunzhi.

Finally you use my name!

Yan'an,

Chunzhi is right.

I must live well from now on!

Please take some tea.

Thanks.

Professor He,

let me help you sort out these books here.

Don't touch them!

It may look cluttered here,

but I've actually been keeping mental tabs on my books.

I've finished this one,

and I'm now halfway through this one

and may pick it up again anytime.

This one was sent by a publishing house which I will review.

Just let them be.

I've been used to the way they are.

this lady, Virginia Woolf,

what do you think of her books?

You know Virginia Woolf?

I've watched a movie about her.

It talks about Woolf.

She was a English writer,

who later drowned herself in a river.

That's right,

Woolf was a very famous writer.

And that movie you watched is called "The Hours",

which features Woolf's

legendary life story.

while alive.

Actually she was very famous already

That year,

I was in London one year on a lecture tour,

Professor He,

to Gordon Square.

In order to find the writer's former residence.

When I arrived,

I was very disappointed

because there wasn't even a name plague on the house.

on a neighboring house,

There's only this large sign

hanging

which lists Woolf's former patrons.

See?

Even in countries like Britain,

people tend to celebrate the "pocket"

and forget the "brain"

I don't think they forget her.

Which author's book are you reading?

Did those rich people leave any books that last?

And haven't you noticed

Now, All the wealthy people,

They all spend money on buying academic degree.

It shows that the"brain"is more desirable than the "pocket".

Ah

That's a very brilliant observation.

Actually this Woolf

was also an outspoken advocate for women's rights.

She once said,

A female writer

must have money and a room of her own first of all.

And with 100,000 pounds of yearly income.

What she meant is that

women should be independent,

which was a dawning feminist awareness.

I don't know anything about feminism,

I just know

she was a nice-looking lady.

However,

once her heart got cold,

it became frozen,

and no good man

could warm it up again.

Chunzhi

let's go for a walk.

Are you OK?

Can you hold on?

No problem.

Morning, Professor He!

Morning!

Professor He,

you really impressed me!

You are such a role model for us "indoorsmen"!

Cheer up!

What does he mean?

Professor He

Is this restaurant expensive?

Not really.

It's my treat anyway.

En

Here,

hold the knife in your right hand,

and the fork in your left hand.

There you go.

Now have a taste of the food.

Wow,

look at these red flowers!

And these yellow ones!

Look

They are so beautiful!

Let's buy some!

OK.

Professor He,

what painting is it?

It's a painting by Chagall.

Why is the woman in the painting suspended in mid-air?

Well, the thing is:

Shaw once said,

“Life' s greatest happiness

is to be convinced we are loved”.

When working on this painting,

Chagall was enjoying the happiest

and sweetest time of his life.

The painter-in-love just wanted to convey a sense of elevation

Sweet，

that makes one feel as if they are floating in midair.

But

we know sometimes the deeper the love

the more afraid we are of losing it.

And that's why

the painting also evokes

a lingering sense of insecurity.

How I wish there was indeed a doomsday

Oh..

Professor He,

Nothing.

Professor He,

let's make dinner together!

OK!

En

I guess nobody is using kerosene stove for cooking nowadays.

Kerosene stove is perfect for cooking egg dumplings.

The heat it generates is exactly right.

You add a ladle of beaten eggs right after I brush the wok with oil.

See?

You just turn it around a bit,

add some meat,

and then turn it over,

See?

and soon an egg dumpling will be cooked.

Interesting.

OK

Let's make some more!

And when Tiantian comes back

we three shall try making egg dumplings together.

Great

Now,

you try making one yourself.

Be careful not to overcook it!

Mommy!

Mommy!

Xiaowan!

Do you miss Mommy?

Yes! I miss you!

What's wrong?

Did you do something wrong

that made grandma angry?

Mommy.

Is Xiaowan missing Daddy?

I miss you too!

Xiaowan,

be a good girl.

Mommy will be home soon,

and then I will be with you every day!

OK?

If you want anything

just tell mommy,

and I will buy it for you.

I want to go to a nice school,

so I can go to a good college

and make a lot of money, then I will buy a big house for you,

so you don't have to leave home and work anymore.

Mommy,

Daddy said he found me a good school in Shanghai,

Find me a good school.

in a few days.

And he will come pick me up

Xiaowan,

listen.

When Mommy comes to Beijing this time,

Mommy has been working very hard

finally got settled in a "professor" grandpa's home,

In order to

get you into a good school here next year.

He is a very "powerful" grandpa,

very learned

and well-connected.

At that time,

Mommy is going to ask him

to allow you to stay here with me.

Xiaowan,

you must work hard!

If you fail the entrance exam

If you can't pass the exam,

all these efforts Mommy made

will go to waste.

Xiaowan, Mommy will call you later.

I've underestimated you!

In order to get accepted into my family.

I never thought you'd scheme so hard

to achieve your ulterior motive,

you could be so devious

and unscrupulous.

I am only a man who makes creative works.

I'm just a retired old man.

I'm not well-connected enough to help you.

I used to think,

you sincerely wanted to stay here and help me，

only to realize you are just using me to get your daughter here.

Even if I have an ulterior motive,

don't I have to stay here

to serve you,

and tolerate your bad attitude?

Being a Maid,

And then what?

Even if I tell you the truth,

it's still entirely up to you to decide whether to help me.

Thank you, Chunzhi.

I can take care of myself now.

Really,

You should go.

Speaking of Liao Jianping，

it was he who suggested you get sterilized.

And now he is rich,

and wants son,

he changes his mind.

So a peasant

may get rich，

but his vision remains small-town.

what's your point？

My point is,

To your marriage,

maybe there's no need for a divorce,

as long as he can correct himself,

cut off his relationship with that woman,

and continue to treat your and Xiaowan well.

Won't that be enough?

You fool!

Just think,

at your age

if divorced，

When one man live alone.

how can you expect to be happy living alone?

Accustomed to easy days,

you will have to endure hardships all over again！

Has Jianping talked to you?

This is all for your own good.

He said

he doesn't want a divorce,

For this matter,

he is sorry for betraying you.

It won't happen again.

Chunzhi,

just get over it and move on,

it'll soon be behind you.

Think about it.

Ah

Tell him,

I can't get over it.

Tiantian,

can you come back for a quick visit?

Chunzhi has left.

Dad,

Ah

you

I want to cook you some egg dumplings.

It didn't work out.

It seems Chunzhi.

Has trained you well.

Chunzhi is different from our former maids.

She is very creative,

and she tauglbt me how to do housework

so that I can take care of myself.

And she is right.

If so,

why did she leave?

She plans to have her child schooled here in Beijing.

and she wants her to stay with us.

So I drove her away.

You did the right thing.

Just think,

if we say yes this time,

the next time

may be

she may bring home a boyfriend!

We are not running a hotel here.

I guess

she was scheming

to exploit you from the very beginning.

You are just as mean as your father!

Dad,

In my life,

It's the first time in my life to eat something you cook.

Go on and have a taste.

En

It's great!

Then eat more!

Tiantian,

you pay a visit to Wayao

to find Chunzhi.

I was being too mean the other day.

Leaving no space to talk.

You did the right thing!

Haven't you realized that

Chunzhi was actually

using you?

Someone is using me.

At least I'm still "usable"!

People at my age

except you and Chunzhi?

Who might find me "usable" after all

when you are my age.

You will understand my feelings

Dad,

let's just find another maid.

We will find someone from simple background,

someone who is not so devious.

I've been accustomed to Chunzhi.

I don't want other maids.

Oh,

did something happen to Professor He?

I'm here for Chunzhi.

I'm her mother.

Nice to meet you, Ma'am!

Nice to meet you too.

Chunzhi

once showed me your family portraits.

I guess the photographers in Beijing

because you are much prettier

than you look in photos.

Thank you, Ma'am.

So,

what are you here for?

Chunzhi has done a pretty good job working for us.

My Dad wants her back.

Keeping hiring her.

Oh

Thank lord!

Oh,

Ms. Tian,

if you head back tomorrow,

bring these woolen undergarments

to your Dad.

Your dad is a professor.

A professor must dress decently!

Cotton undergarments

are too baggy.

These pants selected by Chunzhi are made of pure wool

which is both warm and light.

Chunzhi,

Chunzhi,

where have you been?

I've been looking all over for you!

Ms. Tian,

how is Professor He?

How else could he be,

See.

living alone in a big house

with no one to care for him?

Even the tea is cold!

Ms. Tian, see how spectacular this waterfall is!

It's a pity that the plunged water can't flow back.

It certain can!

My Dad

sent me here to invite you back.

Chunzhi,

you left him

alone at home,

what if something happens...

It is not me who leave him alone at home.

It is you.

I have my owin family to look after.

You should be the one to take care of Professor He.

You are his daughter after all.

I just dreamed about you by my side,

and now you are really with me.

Will you go back to work for that grandpa?

No.

Then we can be together every day!

Yeah!

Then we can be together every day!

Are you happy?

Yeah!

Dad,

I've made up my mind.

When I come back to US this time,

I will drop everything in the US,

and move back

to spend more time with you.

But what about Robert?

No need to worry about him.

You are now

my only family now in this world,

and I just want to spend more time with you.

As you said,

family always comes first.

People with no family

however rich they are.

are never settled,

Why is the woman in the painting suspended in mid-air?

En?

you are not blame on me?

For what?

For failing to protect my family.

Is he treating you badly?

He is good to me,

but nothing else.

If he is no good to you,

Then you shall count your blessings!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad! Are you inside your room?

Where is he?

Tiantian,

I think you should go back to the U.S.

I..

I'm heading to Wayao for a visit.

I arrive at Wen Zhou.

Professor He,

What are you doing here?

I'm here to work for Xiaowan.

say hello to Grandpa He!

Hello, Grandpa He!

Hello, Xiaowan!

Chunzhi,

lead Professor He inside!

Xiaowan,

Chunzhi,

The other day you leave,

what I said to you,

I took it back.

Now you don't think I'm using you?

For an old man like me,

it's better to be used

than being totally useless.

Where is your husband?

We are divorced.

Now

he wants to take my darughter away,

he wants to take my daughter away,

I don't believe he can do a better job than you.

Like you know him.

I don't know him,

but I know you.

And I don't know what happen between you.

I'm sure it is he who betrayed you.

That's not important now.

He did what he did.

When I married him,

he had literally nothing.

Now he is growing wealthy.

A rich businessman,

A big Boss.

I'm still a rural woman.

A lot of people have tried to convince me to remain in the marriage,

so that I can still be the "legitimate" wife

and use his money.

"Legitmate"wife!

Use his money!

Treat him like an Empire.

As if I can't make money myself!

What if you lost a man's heart of spirit?

What good is it if you only have a man's body?

It will drive you crazy.

You will never ask any penny from him?

Taking the kid and leaving home.

You are nor regrets

No!

I had nothing when I married him.

Now have Xiaowan!

Professor He,

let me take you to meet Xiaowan.

OK

Let's go!

Tomorrow is Xiaowan's birthday.

She wants her father to be here too.

So I'm here just in time.

Come here, Xiaowan.

What's your problem?

She is allergic to seafood.

Xiaowan,

do you want to see how those puppets backstage

Be controlled and performed?

Yes

Come on, Let's go!

OK

Come on, follow me!

Let's climb onto the stage here,

Be careful!

Here, have a shrimp.

You are not allergic to seafood I suppose?

I haven't seen glove puppetry shows in a long time.

Xiaowan is reaching school age soon.

En..

I wannt to take her to Shanghai.

They have better schools there.

Haven't you always wanted to take her away?

I just want her to receive the best education.

She is still so young

Living Along in Shanghai.

Who is going to take care of her in Shanghai?

Can you do that?

But can you?

When was the last time you saw her?

That's why I'm back now.

So what?

Are you going to let her receive education in a place like this?

You are from here yourself, remember?

And that's exactly why I can't leave her here.

What do you have now?

What can you give to Xiaowan?

You have nothing

Right?

So just let me take care of her.

I'm worried.

About what?

I'm worried Xiaowan would have to compete for your love with your son.

And when she grows up.

I fear she might steal another woman's husband too.

That won't happen.

I've broken up with that woman.

Now I'm single again.

That's why you are back?

En..

You just come as you please!

And go as your please!

Don't you think that's a bit too selfish?

So what?

Xiaowen is my daughter, my blood!

I must give her the best education!

the best education!

Besides...

I want you take you away too!

For Xiaowan,

just give me another chance!

Think about it.

Mommy, where is Daddy?

He said he would take me to Shanghai.

Professor He,

sorry for putting you through this.

After you left,

In Beijing,

I found a great school for Xiaowan.

You can take her

to live with me.

Xiaowan,

here is grandpa's birthday gift for you.

The school admission letter.

Thinking of My Brothers on a Moonlit Night-by Du Fu

War drums break people's journey drear; swan honks on autumn frontier.

Dew turns into frost since tonight; The moon viewed at home is more bright.

I've brothers scattered here and there; For our life or death none would care.

Letters can't reach where I intend; Alas! The war's not come to an end

War drums break people's journey drear; A swan honks on autumn frontier.

Dew turns into frost since tonight; The moon viewed at home is more bright.
