- Xiang Xinran -Mom

Hey!

You two!

Mom

Come Qianjin

- Hey!Go Away! -Why should I?

- Just move! -I'm not going!

- Go! -Come here.

- This is my seat! -Okay, sit still.

You are so annoying.

I'm your big sister, you must listen to me.

Okay, look at the front.

-Okay. -Okay.

One, two, three!

Look right here, please.

"Non-Appreciation of Old People"

Students

The elderly,

they are in every household

Today, let's talk about the elderly

OK

So, who wants to describe the elderly?

The older they are, the uglier

They don't take good care of themselves...

...when they're younger

When they fall, nobody dares to help them up

All their teeth are gone, so they can't eat anything

They eat so slowly...

...and still talk on and on

They move so sluggishly and become a burden to everybody

They worry about everything and anything you do offends them

They're senile

And wet their pants

They expect people to give up their seats on buses

Well, you pretend to be asleep

Quiet

Senior Citizen's Card

You continue napping

I'll provide some shade, it'll be more comfortable

What on earth is going on?

Everything that has been said...

...has been about their shortcomings

It seems nobody wants to spend time with the elderly

But have you ever considered...

...that one day you too will become old?

Who here knows how to fight aging?

More exercise

That is one way

Take good care of ourselves early

Why not just go to Korea...

For botox?

Think harder

ls there any other way to prevent ourselves from aging?

Nobody has said it

It seems I need to call on students

So I Will

Xiang

Xin

Ran

Xiang Xinran

Xiang Xinran

Come, stand up and answer my question

He's calling on you

Xiang Xinran

Please stand up and answer my question

What can be done to postpone aging?

What else is there?

Worst comes to worst,

I'll just kill myself after thirty

At the time, I really felt that way

3 Bamboos

Kong

Wasn't I pretty in my youth?

Very

Wasn't I a good singer?

Yes

Hurry up, it's almost dark

What's the rush? Five Bamboos

Kong

What?!

Back when you were thirty,

I really should have given you a hand

I didn't need it

If I wasn't so worried about our Guobin,

my noose would have been ready

Are you serious?

No

If I died, what would happen to Guobin?

Back then, life was so difficult

Looking back now,

forty years gone in a flash

I've suffered it all

Did I ever complain?

You shouldn't

Didn't you insist on marrying Guobin's father?

TRUE

I may have married the wrong man,

but I gave birth to the right one

Our Guobin is not only handsome,

he takes care of me,

and he's a college professor

What about your kids?

Let's play

Seven Character

Your tiles...

Old Li, you are looking at two players' tiles

That's not fair

Just because your son is a loser,

don't take it out on Old Li

What about my son?

What a mess...

Who are you talking about?

Who? What has my son ever done to you?

I'm talking about my tiles

Everybody knows about Guobin already

Professor at a top university

Exactly

Let's play

Exactly, what did I say wrong?

Our Guobin...

...specializes in researching social issues of the elderly

If it wasn't for him,

this place would have become a real estate agency long ago

Then where would you all be playing mahjong?

Green Dragon

- Seven Bamboos -Mahjong

Pure hand, two Kongs

You knew she wanted Bamboos, why keep offering them?

Do you even know how to play?

It was a lone tile

Why'd you do that?!

He played it right

I could tell that you were building a pure hand

When she played Seven Character, why not declare mahjong?

You wanted a self-drawn win

You deserve to lose

What kind of playing style is this?

6-6-8 Bamboos?

How can this be a winning hand?

Wait a minute

This doesn't count

I don't believe it

- You owe us three money -Hand over the money

I wanted to remind you just now

I...

...just read the tile wrong

Who plays like that?

Let's restart

I'm done

I've got to make dinner for my son

Even if my son is a loser, he still needs food after all

Don't be a sore loser

I can't play anymore

Young man

You people,

if you don't want to play, whatever

- Can I help you? Aunt Chen -My dog is thirsty

Bring him some water

Mineral water

Ok, I'll take care of it

All day I hear Guobin this, Guobin that

It's enough to drive me insane

You dare talk about Guobin like that?

If your Guobin is so exceptional,

how can he bear to see you wear...

...such shabby shoes?

Good ventilation

Brother Li

Let me show you something

Here

This is my passport photo

It looks very nice

Looks nice, my ass! What a ghastly face

It would look great on your funeral altar

Brother Li

You can have the photo if you like it

Where are you going?

I'm going to America

My daughter calls me every day...

...begging me to stay with her awhile there

So what

But there's nobody to care for my dog

Brother Li

Why don't you help me while I'm gone?

I can't, I don't know how to care for a dog

I don't know how to care for a dog

I think you should hurry over to America

Have your foreign son-in-law take care of the dog

I do what I want, none of your business

You don't even own a passport

If you're so great, why don't you have your son...

...take you to tour around America?

Let me tell you something

Say what you want about me...

...but don't talk about my son

What?

Want to fight?

I say what I want, so what?

Bullshit professor at a bullshit university

Let's stop this

You old hag,

keep on talking

So what?

What? Go on? Hit me!

Stop grabbing me, I can't stand you

Keep bragging

Don't touch me

Stop pulling my hair

Stop it

Let go

Keep bragging

Where is my wig?

Over here

Pretty eh?

Over here, how about now?

Give it back you damned hag

You damned hag

Pretty huh?

Look how pretty you are, seriously!

You say she's how old already?

All she does is cause trouble

It's not enough that she acts like this,

but she has to drag you into it too

It wasn't madam's fault

Calling her madam?

Listen

It's been how long...

...since you last worked for their family?

I'm very much indebted to them

That was decades ago

You've already paid your dues

Can't you contain her just a little?

This time it's your nose

Next time, who knows, will it be your head?

Shut up

I was talking to Batman, go on

Sit

A forty year old...

...holed up at home all day.

It's no surprise you're still single

Do you plan on living with your dad forever?

Auntie Shen, just look...

...at my dad's injuries

Do you have anything to say for yourself?

Of course

Who asked you to intervene anyways?

You just got in the way

Everything he did was for your sake

Here, wash these for your dad

He doesn't eat peaches

- Let me see -Here

- Dad you... -Very sweet

Leaving already?

The rerun for Princess Huanzhu is about to start

Why don't you watch before leaving?

I don't see the princess

But there is a Rong Momo right here

Dad

Don't you see that mouth of hers

No wonder she's been a widow for all this time

Stop eating those

Say what you want, she did find a husband

What about you?

I'm afraid of having a mother-in-law like her

Stop with that

Don't bother with that dating show, "if You Are The One"

Even if you don't find it embarrassing, I do

Mengjun

Dad, allergy medicine

Dad, allergy medicine!

Careful, it's hot

How many times have I told you

This type of fish needs to be fried on both sides first...

...that way it won't taste so fishy...

...and it will hold together in one piece

The soup will be clear yet full of flavor

Just look at this fish soup

Mom, Guobin said he prefers a lighter soup

Light doesn't need to taste bad

Stop making excuses

Stop, let me handle this

If you paid the slightest attention to what you eat,

you wouldn't be in such poor shape

Just look at yourself,

you're weaker than me!

What heart issues, you're just malnourished

Mom, can you tell Dad...

...to stop calling on me in class

It's really em harassing

How's that embarrassing?

The way you dress is what's embarrassing

Mom, I'm heading out first,

I have a rehearsal this morning

Come back here,

it's your turn to wash the dishes

Mom, I'm going to be late

We had an agreement, it's your turn today

Don't run off

Xiang Xinran, this is none of your business

I'm your older sister, show some respect

Whatever you're only older by five minutes

You come back here

Let Grandma help with the dishes

It's OK, Grandma. Let me do it.

- You shouldn't miss rehearsal, -Mom,

I'll take care of it

- I can do it, Grandma -how can you be washing dishes?

Let me do it

OK fine

Anybody can wash dishes

Music though, that's a different story

Thank you, Grandma

Mom, I'm taking some money for dinner tonight

Didn't I give you money just two days ago?

Put the money back

Qianjin, out of money?

Grandma can help, is one hundred enough?

Mom, how can he take your money?

I have some here

- Take it -Mom, he shouldn't take yours

In my opinion, you should take it all

Really?

Treat the other band members to dinner tonight

I'm leaving

Grandma

Do you have to be so biased?

Qianjin here started a band

Once he's famous, he'll be featured on entertainment news

Just look at what you're wearing

is this a shirt or bra?

You're courting sexual harassment,

that's how you'll make the news

Mom

You should leave the kids be

How can I not worry about them?

You, of all people

Not intervening when you should...

...and meddling when you shouldn't

I'll say while you're more educated than me

I did raise a university professor

What about you?

Aiyo, eat eat eat, that's all you're good at

You dress like this and still eat that much

Who exactly did you inherit this from?

Don't go, I'm not finished

You used to be in such good shape,

now you've let yourself waste away like this

You can't even take care of yourself,

and you think you can take care of the whole family?

Honey, are you OK?

Why don't you get checked up at the hospital

That's not necessary

I'll tell Mom to tone it down

Alright

Just let her say what she wants

Don't mind her

Sing

"To love somebody is so hard"

"Why can't I do anything right?"

"Love"

"is my subway train"

"charging ahead"

"free of obstacles"

Xiaomei, Water

Xiaomei, Who's the father?

Come on,

hard alcohol and Sprite

Let's continue!

Xiaomei

You knew we had rehearsal today

Why did you have to drink so much

You're so out of tune right now,

-my grandma could sing better than you -Qianjin

Well then let her sing!

You wrote this stupid song

This "love moving forward" crap

Guess what? My life is moving backwards

Boss

You say that one more time

Qianjin

So what if I say it again?

Let me remind you,

it was you who begged me to sing in the first place

Well, can I admit what a mistake that was?

Fine. Of course you can

What

You do realize that her family owns this rooftop?

Boss

ls there really nobody you like so far?

What do you think?

I thought the last one wasn't bad

Not bad for putting me to sleep

Can you give me an example of somebody you like?

Sure

Really?

But they're all either old or dead

Where can I find somebody like that...

Xiaomei, we were wrong

I promise this won't ever happen again

Can you forgive us just this once?

Go away!

My drums are still in there

Xiaomei

I really

My drum!

This person never cleans up

Yangqin

Yangqin

Yangqin

Grandma

Grandma, what's going on with Mom?

How's Yangqin doing?

Honey

How are you feeling? A little better?

Want some water?

Mom

Mom

What happened to Mom?

Move aside

Guobin, she wants to speak with me

I'm here,

speak

Mom

She'd like you to wait outside

Oh

ls everything OK?

No need to worry, she has no major issues,

but she should get a monthly checkup

Please do not forget

She needs to be on a healthy diet and rest well

One more thing

Don't give her any kind of stress

She must not be agitated in any way

OK

You don't care about Mom at all

It's all Grandma's fault that she was in the hospital

No way

Dad, you can't

You can't put her in that kind of place

What kind of place?

Isn't it just a nursing home?

What's the big deal?

Nursing homes these days are great,

and the food is excellent

Tons of people are living nice and comfortably there

Right Dad?

If it's so comfortable, why don't you go live there?

Dad

Just think, one day she'll send you to a nursing home too

Xiang Xinran, I'm warning you

So what?

OK

Mom

You're here?

Princess Huanzhu is starting soon

Let me find it

Grandma, Grandma, um...

Qianjin

I think I should go live the comfortable life

I've made my decision

It's less than an hour away

You can come visit me

Here

Mom, stop peeling

Here, have some meat,

it's very tender

I'm full,

eat the shrimp

Here , you eat too

Here , you eat too

Eat the shrimp

Mom

Once she gets better

I'll come pick you up

Be good to her

OK

Don't blame it on me next time

Mom, get in the car

Let's go Grandma

You all go home first

I want to take a walk to visit Uncle Li

Let me drive you there

It's only one stop away, I can walk

I should still give you a ride

Don't you have work tomorrow?

Just go back home

Alright, I'll leave then

Hello Grandma

Ah, my dear grandson, why didn't you come to dinner?

I'm not in the mood to see Dad and my sister

Don't say that

Once Grandma is gone, you should listen to your dad...

...and stop fighting with your sister

So, you haven't eaten yet?

Not yet

Grandma's treating you tonight

What do you want to eat?

What do I want to eat?

Braised chicken with chestnuts! Hotpot!

OK

Can my two friends tag along?

Of course they can

My grandson's friends are my friends

let's meet at Shiban Street in a bit?

Sure

"Photography Studio of Youth"

Wow, I didn't realize this store was so huge

Welcome to the Photography Studio of Youth

How strange

I walk by this area everyday...

...and have never seen this photography studio

I've never had pictures taken at a studio before

I want these to look especially nice

Later on, they can be used for my funeral

Leave the family something to remember me by

When I was younger,

I loved Teresa Teng

Can you make me look like her?

Over here, look at the camera

Smile

Picture yourself at the peak of your beauty

The peak of my beauty...

The peak of my beauty...

I let those years just slip by

Hello

Qianjin

Hi Grandma

Grandma will be right over

- I'm here -You're there?

I'm coming

What's going on?

I'm so hungry

Not sure, she sounds a bit strange over the phone

Strange?

Wait stop

Stop the bus

Stop the bus

Senior Citizen's Card

Watch it! What are you doing

I'm sorry, young man

Hey

You bumped into me earlier

and

-it really hurt -Yeah, a lot of pain

Are you trying to extort me?

I wouldn't dare!

How about this

You give me a kiss

Just a kiss, and I'll let it slide

Just a kiss

OK then

Come over

Go

Closer, even closer

You little bastard

Speaking like that to an old lady, get out of my way

Pulling that kind of stunt on an old lady!

Would you dare do that to your grandmother?

Did you even stop and consider my age?

Twenty

Nineteen

Eighteen

Eighteen

Eighteen

Seventeen

Cellphone's off

Maybe the battery's run out, let's just go eat

Yeah, maybe she'll join us soon anyway

"Licensed Sex Shop"

Wasn't this a photography studio just now?

What photography studio? Can't you read?

How is that possible?

Miss, this one here

If you're interested, come in and try it on

They're all quite nice

What is the matter with you?

Have you no decency an old lady like me?

I call Grandma's room

No way, I called it already

It should be mine

-it's mine -Get out

You two stop fighting

Let's move her things out first

At last, I'm free of her!

- Mine! -This bookshelf is mine too

Everybody stop

Just look at yourselves

I've made up my mind about this room long ago

It will be a new study room

Dad, that's a wonderful idea

Have you tried calling her?

I did, her cell phone is not on

I knew she must be upset with me...

...and I was afraid to disturb you so late at night

So that's why I rushed over so early this morning

Uncle Li

Could you ask her to come down

I want to apologize to her

Really

Mom, can I at least apologize to you?

Your mother really isn't here

You must have said some terrible things to her,

you brat

What could I have said to upset her?

Let's hurry and call the police

Call the police?

Call the police

She's really not here with you?

Really

Well, if she's only been missing this long

The police won't even take the case yet

Is it possible she had a fall somewhere?

Given Auntie Shen's good physical and mental health,

a fall seems very unlikely

What about a car accident?

Or what if she was kidnapped?

There's no need for wild speculation

Guobin

If she really has been kidnapped,

I am willing to sell this house and pay the ransom to save her

Come on, if you do sell...

...then what will happen to me?

Are you planning on...

...having your own daughter live on the street?

Stop with your nonsense

What nonsense

Tell me, who's more important, her or me?

Of course she is

- She's gone missing! -Well, can she provide

-end-of-life care for you? -That's what you are for

It's me, me, me

Cut it out, go find a husband already

Let's throw these out

Why do that?

Put them in a bag please

So you'd like to rent?

Yes

How did you know we have availability?

Didn't there used to be a posting right here?

We removed that ages ago

That's the one I'm referring to

1,500 per month, 1 month deposit, 3 months upfront

Food, water, and electricity not included

Don't rip me off

Even with the heat on in winter, it's only 1,200

I'll take the small room

Let's call it 1,000, and don't worry about my food

ls your mother's cabinet still around?

Bring it over to my room

One second

Have you been here before? Have we met?

I used to live nearby

I'm sure we've seen each other before

Dad, you're back

This young lady would like to rent here

Oh right, what's your name?

My name is Meng

Lijun

Meng Lijun

Lijun

So what if her name is Lijun?

Teresa Teng was Auntie Shen's favorite

Don't worry, I'm sure Auntie Shen is fine

One day, she's perfectly fine,

I'll leave you two to chat, I'm going upstairs

and the next day, she disappears just like that

You have to pay the rent first

You're back

Let me handle it, take it easy

"Yangqin,

remember to take your medicine"

I'm fine, take care of yourselves

I should be the one running away from home

"Dongqing Community Senior Activity Center"

Red Dragon

Brother Li, take a tile

Hurry and discard a tile

What are you doing?

You tell me, someone her age as fragile as her

Where could she go?

That's enough Brother Li, you know her better than anybody

I bet she'll outlive every one of us here

One Character

We should just focus on...

...taking good care of ourselves

That is what's important

Would you grab a tile already?

"Mengjun's grandson"

Why?

Old Li, how can you just stop like that

I'll take over

I'll take his place

- Who are you? -Do you hear anything from your grandma?

I

I'm Grandpa Li's tenant, tenant...

So you're Old Li's tenant...

I know

Are you familiar with the rules here?

Qing-Hun-Pong rules: no bonus tiles, no mixing suits,

and no Pongs before opening

Big sister, hurry and shuffle

I'm familiar

Granny

What did you call me?

You call her big sister and me granny?

Do I look like a granny to you?

Why didn't you Pong on her Five Bamboos earlier?

Because I like you better

Granny

Play on

Nine Bamboos

Do you know how to play?

Boss

- East Wind -Pong

- Eight Character -Pong

Green Dragon

No worries

Then what are you muttering about?

I'm happy

- Seven Bamboos -Mahjong

Discarding an unplayed tile?

Wanted a self-drawn win huh? You deserve to lose

Pure hand, two Kongs

Hand over the money

Boss, you said you didn't like the last group

Tell me what you're looking for,

I can narrow my search

Boss, why don't we go to that place?

Boss

I'm almost at the Senior Activity Center

I'll find you

I'll be waiting

Young lady

Did I do something to offend you?

Every move I make, you either call Pong

or Kong

- I'm done -Please don't

Hand over the money

Old Lu, can't you see

if we keep playing with her, we'll all go bankrupt

I'll sing Sweetness

Big sister, let me sing this one

I beg of you

Young man

I'd like to sing

Which song?

Boss, the last person really wasn't bad

You don't think so?

Young talent needs to be developed

You need to give them a chance

Nobody's born a good musician

Grandpa Li, I was just at the police station

They said that Grandma left home on her own terms

- There's no case -Left home on her own terms?

This song is dedicated to my dearest

Brother Li

For me?

Don't!

"Love is a journey of the heart"

"Only room for us two"

"I can't wander alone"

"But please don't use atonement as an excuse"

"to hurt me again"

Get off the stage, Stop it!

"Eyes addicted to crying"

"stained red by tears"

You know who she is?

Who is she, Grandpa Li?

Our tenant

Lijun, where are you going?

Good day Miss, I'm the...

Miss!

- Boss -Miss!

- Come back inside, it's raining. -Wait.

The real princess is Ziwei

She is indeed the daughter of Yu Hexia

This part

The emperor still hasn't figured out Ziwei is his daughter

He hasn't

Say, don't you think the emperor is so stupid?

She's even played by the same person

and he can't tell

This is not the channel we were on last time

Quick, change it

Let's continue from where we left off

Grandpa Li, that girl from today, does she live here?

Do you remember Xia Yuhe at Darning lake?

What is it?

Nothing, I was just looking for her

What for?

The uh

Why are you sitting down

I...

This kind of sound

This kind of person

I seem to have a faint memory of this

Everything here

feels so familiar

so intimate

You are blood relatives

How can you take an interest in her?

Who says he takes an interest in me?

I was saying the emperor,

Ziwei is not his daughter

Let's talk

It's Lijun right?

Yup

Been a while...

...since you've had a drink with a boy?

Umm

Yes

Why do you always keep your head down?

Am I that scary?

Actually

The moment I met you

You gave me a special kind of feeling

What kind of special feeling?

I...I have a request, but

I'm afraid...

...you'll reject it if I say

So don't say it then

No way, I must ask

Could we...

Didn't I just tell you not to?

No, that's not what I meant

What I mean is, do you think we could...

No

How could we possibly become a couple?

We can't possibly become a couple

We should never become a couple

I meant singing

What?

I have a band

Our lead singer quit

Mind your own business

Singing, being in a band

My family would never support me

My family doesn't support me either

Only my grandma does...

...but she fled home recently

No idea where she is now

I'm such a failure, right?

Alright

It's just singing after all

I'll sing

I'll sing

Come

Eat the shrimp

Hurry up

"Your love"

"is my subway train"

"charging ahead, free of obstacles"

"Just who exactly is your"

"destination?"

What's the matter?

You people,

dragging a girl to this god forsaken place

Howling and wailing around

Do your parents know about this?

This is rock and roll

Roll? Where are you rolling to?

And you

"Oh" this, "Oh" that

How strange

There's so much equipment

How did you move it all here?

I don't understand your style of music

I can't help you

I'm leaving

Wait wait

So

What kind of music do you want to sing?

We'll do it your way

Yeah

I can think of one song

It has a beautiful melody

and an upbeat rhythm

Sing it

Yeah, sing it

Sing it

Alright

"Give me a kiss"

"Yes or no?"

"Even an air kiss is fine"

"I will be just as grateful"

"Give me a kiss"

"Yes or no?"

"Kiss me on the cheek"

"Leave a mark of love"

"Give me a kiss"

"Yes or no?"

"Kiss me on the heart"

"Let me long for you"

"even while staring into your eyes"

"Even if you say no"

"I still must ask"

"I won't be discouraged"

"even while staring at your lips"

"Even if you don't respond"

"I still must beg of you"

"I won't be sad"

"Give me a kiss"

"Yes or no?"

"Even an air kiss is fine"

"I will be just as grateful"

"Give me a kiss"

"Even a superficial one is fine"

"An air kiss symbolizes your sweetness"

"I will be just as grateful"

"An air kiss symbolizes your sweetness"

"I will be just as grateful"

"An air kiss symbolizes your sweetness"

"I will be just as grateful"

Cheers!

We've never gotten this kind of reception before

We'll cruise through next week's auditions...

...with Lijun

That goes without saying, of course

Waitress

What's your most expensive dish?

How does a whole fish sound?

Let's have a whole fish, one whole fish

No, thank you

Thank you

Don't you guys realize

how expensive everything here is?

Back when this place first opened,

the portions were so generous...

...and the food was delicious and cheap

At that time,

the number of customers lining up were unbelievable

Now look

"Celebrating 50 years in business"

Boys, here

Another round of drinks

Alright

- Cheers -Another! Young men

How much for this?

Two fifty? It was two last time

How much for these?

Four per half kilo

And these?

Three per half kilo

- These? -Also three

Hey

Don't start eating without buying

How can I know what to buy without sampling?

Crazy

Could you weigh that for me?

Don't cry

Settle him down

How much is it?

Twenty Five

Just a second, I'll get cash

Let me hold him

I can help

Do you still want this?

Thank you so much

- Do you want this or not? -Sorry about that

How much is it?

Twenty Five

This baby is so cute

Hungry? Did you bring milk?

Yes

Hurry

I'll pay for it

So well behaved

How can you have him wear so little?

Look, no socks even!

See, wasn't I saying that earlier?

Thanks, I'll take him back now

He's crying again

Is this...

...breast milk or milk powder?

Breast milk, although it does give him diarrhea

No wonder

It's too watery

With denser milk,

the baby will be chubby and fair-skinned

He also wouldn't have diarrhea

Just look at how skinny the mom is

She must have had terrible post-natal care

The wateriness must be caused by malnutrition

Exactly

The month after giving birth

she didn't eat this, didn't eat that

- How can her milk be good? -Let's go, Mom

No wonder he's always crying

Baby

Mommy's milk is watery...

...gives you diarrhea and doesn't fill you up

What is wrong with you?

Somebody your age, going on and on about milk

Your breast milk is so good huh?

Only yours will do

Why don't you nurse a kid yourself?

Mom, let's go

I nursed a college professor

Of course my milk is good

Hello Miss

We've met before

When?

I've met you but perhaps you don't remember

How about we find a place to sit and chat?

What era are you from?

Using that kind of pickup line

Sit and chat...

Why don't you just invite me directly to a hotel room?

Actually, I've noticed you for quite a while

What do you want?

I'm not a bad guy

What kind of bad guy admits that he is?

I'm warning you, stop following me

Miss, I work at a record label...

Help!

Pervert!

It's a misunderstanding

I had a bad feeling about you

A pervert in broad daylight! Restrain him!

It's a misunderstanding

I'm not

I work at a record label

I'll get it

Slow down

Who exactly is this important guest of yours?

How did you know I love watermelon?

Please come in

Mom, my friend is here

Gee, you look fine to me

Huh?

I was saying

Auntie

You really do look...

...radiant

Thank you

Who would have guessed...

...that Qianjin has as beautiful a friend as you

She really is beautiful

Who's your plastic surgeon?

Go and slice the watermelon

Don't mind her and that mouth of hers

She's like my grandmother

Yes, she is like Grandma

Come in, I'll prepare dinner

This way

Their rooms are on the second floor

Mine is on the highest floor

Almost there

Qianjin

I'm a little thirsty

Could you get me a cup of juice?

OK, just a second, I'll be right back

Thanks

Let's go to my room

No

To the living room

Somebody your age inviting a girl to your room...

Don't eat so much

Don't eat so much

Screw you

How strange

Tastes good

Tastes good? Hah!

You'll have to do a better acting job than that

Xiang Xinran

Where are your manners?

You want to act along too?

You deserve it!

What's the matter?

Is it not to your liking?

My grandma used to say

This type of fish should first be fried on both sides

then the soup will be clear yet full of flavor

See mom, Lijun is so knowledgeable

Yes, she's right

ls their father not coming back to eat?

He said he's busy, be back later than usual

Let's eat

It's so late already

Why isn't he back home yet?

You sure have a lot of complaints

Mom, if this goes any further, it won't be long...

...before Qianjin comes home one day with a grandson

- What are you two fussing about? -I'm back

Eat!

You're back

Could you tell me where the bathroom is?

It's that direction, past the stairs

I know

Who is she?

Our band's lead singer

What's the matter?

Come eat first

I'll set you up

I'll get changed first

It's obvious...

...that the suspect knew our surveillance camera's location

She purposely blocked it with that sunshade

She must be an expert

What you're saying is...

...kidnapping is a real possibility?

Very likely

We can't rule out people close to her as suspects

ls your mother on bad terms with anybody...

...or has she offended anybody recently?

My mother typically treats everybody

very nicely

She never offends anybody

The Forward Band

Next contestant, get ready

"even while staring into your eyes"

"Even if you say no"

"I still must ask"

"I won't be discouraged"

"even while staring at your lips"

"Even if you don't respond"

"I still must beg of you"

"I won't be sad"

"Give me a kiss"

"Yes or no?"

Stop

Have we met before?

No we haven't

That day

I'm sorry about what happened

You weren't hurt, were you?

I'm fine

So you two know each other

Oh right

There's a show next week at Live House

It's the preliminaries for the Music Festival,

so it will be broadcast live on TV and the web

I don't know...

...if you all would like to join?

Of course we would

Boss

I've already submitted the list of participants

Don't worry everybody

She can arrange it

I have a meeting to attend

Read it over

OK, See you

Bye

Thank you

What is in this contract?

We need to be careful with what we're signing

Lijun

Maybe after this, we'll be releasing albums next

Really

Stop dreaming

I'm back

Anybody here?

And no lights on

Batman

Batman, how come you're here?

Where's everybody else?

Not here?

And they left it pitch black for you?

You idiot

Can't even aim properly

What are you doing so late anyways?

Trying to kill me!

Are you crazy? Have you gone mad?

What are you saying? You're so noisy!

If you dare try anything, I'll show you no mercy

I should have seen through you long ago

You're no good

What have you done with our Mengjun? Tell me

Those shoes you were carrying...

...and the things in your suitcase

Those are all Mengjun's

You think I can't tell?

What did you do to her?

What did you do to her?

Killed her

Tossed in the river, fish food

Mengjun

You've been murdered!

I don't want to live without you

You can kill me too

Kill me

Nobody else knows about your crimes

Hurry up and kill me too

I want to be with Mengjun

What's so good about that granny anyways?

What do you know?

Do you know when Mengjun was younger,

how beautiful and sweet she was?

I worked as a servant in their household as a teen

She never once looked down on me

No matter how tough life got

I just thought of Mengjun and I could persevere

Just the sight of her made me so happy

If it wasn't for my military enlistment...

Who knows? We could have been together

Since you love her so much

How come you can't recognize me?

What are you saying?

Didn't you say you'd never forget my face?

Whose face?

How about if I try this?

What are you doing? Just kill me already

You still can't recognize me?

And you said you'd never forget my face

What a bunch of nonsense!

Can you recognize me like this then?

I sure am jealous

Next week

I'm taping something at the TV station

At the TV station?

That rascal, Xiang Qianjin, begged me all day to do it

I had no choice but to sign up

You're so young now, why worry so much about Qianjin?

To be honest

I'm not just doing this for him

I wanted to sing when I was younger

But back then, where could we go?

Now I can seize this opportunity

People want to listen to me now

Who knows,

you may even become the next Teresa Teng

Don't be so touchy-feely

Oh no, the photo is soaked

Oh no, the whole thing!

The subject is right here

What do you need the photo for?

Here

What did my mom say?

Where exactly is she?

Calm down one thing at a time

Uncle Li, this is my mom here, I can't just calm down

Where did you see her?

Your mom, she...

Your mom is like the wind

Here one minute, gone the next

However, she asked me to tell you,

there's no need to worry about her

Really, don't worry

This is a letter she left for you

Her fingerprint is on the bottom

Well did my mom say when she will come back?

Your mom said

she wants to experience...

...a different lifestyle

In the past,

she did everything for the sake of others

You two should know this

Well now...

Oh right, she requested...

...that you remove the security freeze on her credit cards

It's been quite inconvenient for her

How about?

OK

Since I'm here,

can you help us with something else?

What is it?

You know how you wanted to send your mom...

...to a nursing home?

Forget that

She might as well live with me

We'll be together

It should be clone lawfully,

so we will need to get a marriage certificate

What?

What?

You want to marry my mom?

- Have you gone senile? -Shut up

What are you yelling at her for?

A marriage certificate...

...can only be done in person anyway

Shut up

It's none of your business

What are you yelling at her for?

You shut up

All you do is lose your temper with me

This young lady, What's wrong with me yelling at her?

You're favoring her over your own daughter?

Put that away

Stop it

Stop it, what are you doing

You stop it

- Stop it -Stop

You

Who do you think you are?

Me

A tenant

Shen Mengjun is enough

Now I have to deal with her

What are you saying?

That tenant of yours...

...is surely up to something

Impossible

Girl

I can't blame you with your looks

But you weren't born yesterday

Open your eyes!

What are you talking about?

She's only how old?

What could she see in my dad?

Also, what does my dad have that's so special?

A house

That must be worth millions

Are you really that naive?

Which one of you ate my pudding?

Here, Duoduo

Grandma will feed you some meat

Hop aboard

Li Dahai

Are you mad?

At your age?

Are you flirting with me?

For you

I'll tell you, Ms. Wang

I forgot to tell you earlier in the supermarket

Two fifty per half kilo, what a bargain for rice

Hurry UP

"To love somebody is so hard"

"Why can't I do anything right?"

"Your love"

"is my subway train"

This song is a mess

Who picked this band?

Why don't we quit

Look at those bands out there,

all they care about is money

I don't want us to become so commercialized

After all, we never did this for the money

We do this for the love of music, right?

Well, doing this isn't exactly cheap

Right,

let's quit

After all, this opportunity...

...was just a gift from Mr. Tan

We didn't exactly earn this

So if we quit now, it's no big deal

If we don't compete, then we won't lose

If we don't lose, then we won't injure our pride

I've seen too many kids like you,

they never amount to anything in life

Let's just quit

Don't take pity on yourselves later

Don't start having regrets when you're older

Wait

I don't want to have regrets

Why don't we try again?

Thank you

Hello everybody

We are The Forward Band

I must apologize...

...for our alteration to today's program

Boss, you can't always make an exception for them

There's one song...

...that is very dear to me

It's because of this song...

...that I have the courage to stand here today

"Memories buried long ago"

"broadcasting themselves into the night"

"An old romance"

"A shooting star falling from the sky"

"has returned"

"gnawing at my heart"

"Teardrops buried long ago"

"My thoughts, pounding at the window"

"Muddy roads, the bumpy ride of romance"

"Only clear blue skies remain"

"Don't be discouraged, don't be sad"

"This is what fate has taught me"

"Suffering until you collapse without hope"

"Time brews these into faintly sweet memories"

"Teardrops buried long ago"

"My thoughts, pounding at the window"

"Muddy roads,"

"the bumpy ride of romance"

"Only clear blue skies remain"

"Don't be discouraged, don't be sad"

"This is what fate has taught me"

"Suffering until you collapse without hope"

"Time brews these into faintly sweet memories"

"Don't be discouraged, don't be worried"

"The rain won't last forever"

"Our separation, the suffocating distress"

"Reminiscing brews these into faintly sweet memories"

"Our separation, the suffocating distress"

"Reminiscing brews these into"

"faintly sweet memories"

"The most enduring joy"

"comes not from being with you"

"but from the memories of our time together"

Isn't your skirt a bit too short?

I said, isn't your skirt a bit too short?

You think so?

Yes it is

Didn't I dress like this when I was younger?

I would have never allowed you to dress like this

Were you the singer just now at Live House?

I think you're so talented

Let's dance

What do you mean dance

She's from your grandmother's generation

Get lost

Drinks are here, let's drink

Mr. Tan is covering the tab, drink as you wish

You all performed brilliantly today

I just received a call from the Music Festival

They'd like to invite you to perform

Really?

What invitation

I had to pull a lot of strings to arrange that

Although you must perform original songs next time

Ah?

Original songs

Good luck

I won't let you down

Let's celebrate

Cheers

Let's head to the dance floor

-OK -OK

You guys go

I'll stick here with Grandpa Li

You don't need to stay here with me

We'll go together

You?

This music beats faster than your heart

Let's dance

What's your problem?

Stop!

Are you looking for a fight?

It's none of your business, get lost

Turn the music off

I'm sorry

I thought

Grandpa was just here with his granddaughter

Who could have guessed,

you're actually a dirty old creep

What did you say? Show some decency

Let's get out of here

Who has no decency?

Come back here

Everybody look at this dirty old creep

This old thing here shameless

Let's go

Did I say anything wrong?

Don't move

Ever served in the military?

- Served in what? -Ever driven a tank?

I'll bet you've never even laid hands on a gun before

Field army unit, decorated artillery officer

Honorary merit citation, second class

First class

Look at yourself, throwing bottles and starting fights

If you're so tough, why don't you serve our country?

Let's go

Let's go

Yeah

You're bleeding

Cindy, get bandaids and disinfectant

OK

Let me take a look

It's no big deal

We'll leave first

Lijun

Let's go then

Let's go

How could this be?

Looks like we'll have to try this

You old dog

Trying to stab me to death?

Are you sure about this?

Go ahead

It doesn't hurt too much

Is it OK?

It's fine

It seems the skin around your injury has aged

So there is a way to return to your old self

But I suppose,

you may not want that right?

Why are you still up at this hour with all the noise?

- Those are her belongings -You shameless fox,

you get out of here

What are you just standing there for?

- Still not leaving? -Just let me explain

Out

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

Dad, Why are you still protecting her?

Did that fox put you under her spell?

You're already this old

Even if you're not ashamed, I am

Do you know who she is?

Who? That fox

And you even asked me to call her mom!

Don't go

You get out of here

You crazy girl

Hello?

Mr. Tan

Are you back home?

I wanted to make sure you were OK

So I just called to check in

Hello?

Is everything alright?

I'm terribly sorry to disturb you so late

I forgot my keys

and the landlord is staying with relatives tonight

Here

Give it to me

I'll sleep here, you sleep upstairs

I can't, I'll sleep here

- I'm the guest -good night

What is it?

The light's still on

Thanks

Back to bed

Why do you sleep with the light on?

What a waste of electricity

You're right

You're not afraid of the dark, are you?

How could that be?

Good night

Good night

Still in denial?

I was going to the bathroom

Come

Don't be ashamed to admit it

- Lie down -I'm really not

Lie down

Quick

Our family's Little Button

was also afraid of the dark

Who is Little Button?

A relative's child

Come

I'll teach you a way to get over your fear

I'm really not afraid of the dark

Give me your hand

Give it to me

Close your eyes

Close them, come on

Let's count to five

One

Two

Three

Four

Five

It's not as dark as you thought,

right?

All we need is a little time

to adjust to the dark

OK

Now you won't be afraid anymore

Sleep

Mom

Are you back?

It's me

Are you not feeling well?

You should go to bed

I've slept long enough

Xinran

You should be nicer to your future mother-in-law

I know

Be nicer to mother-in-law

Be less nice to daughter-in-law

That young lady really is your mother

Students, class dismissed, you're free to go

I know you must be skeptical of what I'm saying,

but you must believe me

What you're saying is

Last time you told me you saw my mom,

you were referring to that young lady?

Correct

Lijun is Mengjun

You're her son and you can't tell?

Lijun is Mengjun?

Ah yes, I have a photograph

This is your mom when she was younger

Have a look

Right?

Uncle Li,

when did this start?

It was when she left your home

I never would have imagined

My mom leaving home...

...would impact you this much

Nothing to be scared of, A disease can be treated...

...especially with these early-stage symptoms

Surely there is a way

I have a friend who is a specialist in this area

You have what is called Alzheimer's disease

I'm not suffering from Alzheimer's disease

You brat, you can't even recognize your own mom?

For crying out loud

Hello, is anybody home? Delivery

Hello

Jingdong Express

Please sign here

Thanks

Boss, are you home?

I've been calling you, why didn't you pick up?

I have some important documents that need your signature

Just sign in these areas

You're up?

"Black flowers"

"White hair flows"

-"Blue..." -Stop

This is really not good enough

Maybe it's best if I find a songwriter to help

Cindy, can the copyright team

recommend somebody?

Ask Zheng

Cindy

Mr. Tan

I've submitted this many songs

Not a single one is to your liking

At the very least, I deserve some feedback

I'll admit your performance last time was great

But you don't have to stick to the same style

What do you mean?

OK band leader

All your music sounds copied

That's what I'm saying

I understand you now

Anyway, the only person here good enough for you is

Meng Lijun

Qianjin, what are you doing?

You of all people should know

Cindy

I'll talk to her

Lijun

Are you and Mr. Tan really together?

Can you not tell that Qianjin likes you?

Trying to win sympathy in the rain is so outdated

What do you want?

Nothing

You're thinking too much

Are you and Mr. Tan really together?

So what if we are?

And so what if we're not?

It seems that you and I will never be

Young people, turned down once and you get so dejected

You will definitely meet somebody...

...who you will love and who will love you back too,

because you're such a talented and good person

How would you know?

I just know

Peach

I haven't seen that granny...

...who was going to America recently

She's in the hospital

But she seemed perfectly fine

At this age,

who knows when problems will arise?

I have something to ask

You go first

ls your daughter doing OK?

She's been spoiled by me ever since she was little

Don't worry about her

What did you want to ask?

Have you been seeing somebody lately?

The way you're acting

Reminds me of when you had just met Guobin's father

Actually, I'm not so sure

We're really just not meant to be

In my life, I've missed the opportunity twice

Don't be so sappy, you're this old already

Yes

I am this old already

But you are still young

Don't visit me anymore

A young lady like you...

...hanging around an old man all clay, what will people think?

Are you OK?

Fine

Oh right

I was taking a stroll today...

...and saw a nice hairpin

I think it would look good on you

I'll help you put it on

Sorry

First time doing this

Mr. Tan

Do you like me?

Yes

If one day...

...I become old,

my hair turns white...

...and my skin becomes wrinkled like paper

Would you still like me?

I'll be older than you for sure if that day one day comes

You'll regret it then

We only have one life to live

Once I make a decision, I don't hold regrets

Hello

Don't worry, I'm sure your friend is fine

Thank you

Mr. Tan

Thank you for the hairpin

You're welcome

Young lady, can you help me see...

...if there is a patient named Chen Yumei

Which room is she in?

Dr. Ye, listen

Our landlord's daughter is in America,

she can't come here now

Please help us

This is hospital regulation

Only the deceased person's immediate family...

...can sign the death certificate

Given the time difference with America,

we simply can't get in touch with her daughter

Look!

We have been her tenants for so many years

Can't we just sign it?

I'm sorry, we must abide by regulations

Grandpa Li

I really must apologize...

...for disturbing you so late

I simply had no choice

In Aunt Chen's cell phone contacts,

besides her daughter,

there is only you and somebody named Shen Mengjun

So...

It's nothing, thank you

I'll take care of the paperwork

Thank you

The drummer enters the stage from here...

Look

There

So many bands

Where is Xiang Qianjin?

Qianjin, he

Qianjin is in the restroom, he'll be back soon

It's almost your turn

you'd better tell him to hurry up

OK

There are three bands in front of us

How much time for each band?

Quick

Where is Qianjin?

Qianjin went back to the hotel

He forgot some sound equipment

Can he make it in time?

Yes

He borrowed a bicycle and he'll be here soon

Cindy

It's almost time, ask them to get ready

I'm calling Qianjin

He's not back yet? Tell him to hurry

OK

Hello Qianjin

Yes, I meant to dial this number

What?

I must apologize, our guitarist got into an accident

We can just change the rundown

Don't worry

Cindy, work with the organizers to sort this out

OK

Lijun, we should go to the hospital

We should still perform

Qianjin worked so hard...

...to give us the chance to perform on this stage

If we don't do this,

then all of Qianjin's efforts will be for nothing

We'll realize his dream...

...and then we can tell him...

...just how great his song is

OK

Cindy

Proceed as usual, call them back

- Hurry -OK

"I've reached my destination"

"but I'm back at the start"

"it has built up into an eternity"

"of memories"

Where's Lijun?

She rushed to the hospital after the performance

We should go over too

Quickly

Are you family members of Qianjin?

Yes

Does anybody have the same blood type as the patient?

Rh-AB?

What's the matter? ls there a blood supply shortage?

Our hospital doesn't carry a large supply

We have already tried contacting other hospitals...

...but time is running out

Does anybody here have the same blood type as him?

Only Grandma and Qianjin have that blood type

What do we do?

I'm coming

My blood type is the same as his

Hold on

I'd like to have a word with her

Don't stop me

Have you thought what this will mean for you?

I'm here to save my grandson

Listen to me

You've worked so hard to become a successful singer...

...and you've just met somebody you like

Think this through

Doing this,

is it really worth it?

Let's draw my blood

Lijun, my friend

I'd like to ask

If you know a woman by the name of Shen Mengjun

Do you?

I do

She was so beautiful when she was young...

...but unfortunately, her husband died very early...

...leaving her with a child who just had his first birthday

The sacrifices she made raising this child...

...were extraordinary

Even heavy manual labor, she did it all

Because that child had such fragile health,

she feared he wouldn't make it

So he gave him a nickname, Little Button

Every time that child was seriously ill,

she would hold him tightly and cry

Little Button

You must hold on tight to your life

She sacrificed everything for this child

But in the end,

this ungrateful child wanted to send her to a nursing home

If you do know her

Please tell her

Don't come back to this house again

Don't marry a husband who dies early again

Don't bother having such an ungrateful son again...

...and don't mend shoes and clothes for that child's sake

If she could do it all over again,

this time, don't make the same mistakes

You should go

He's my child, I'll save him

No

If she could do it all over again,

she wouldn't change a thing

Because only this way...

...would I be your mother,

and you my son

Isn't that right,

Little Button

I had a beautiful dream

Really

If I tell you, you may not even believe me

Qianjin

Guobin, look at Xinran

What great singing

My child is such a good singer

Mom, that's my child,

yours is right here

She inherited those musical genes from me

Alright then, we're all your children

Yangqin, you're tone deaf

How could you be my child?

Guobin, help me out here, quickly

You dare?

Mom

Mom

Bye!

Bye!

No bloopers
