[Episode 21]

Remember how you ate an entire fish on your own

the first time I brought you here?

You surprised me so much.

At the time I thought "this little lady has a surprisingly large stomach."

Thanks, but I stopped eating seafood a long time ago

and these rich foods aren't good for my health.

Drink some soup.

I specifically asked the chefs to add button mushrooms.

Button mushrooms are nourishing, and they're good for treating your illness.

Drink it while it's still hot.

I'm not hungry.

You need to eat even if you're not hungry. Want me to feed you?

- What is it? - Open it and find out.

This watch is for me?

You kept it for a year before gifting it?

I think this belongs to you regardless.

Does it matter if I gift it earlier or later?

It matters a lot.

Don't deceive me with things other people gift to your wife.

Look at what you're saying. What's mine is yours, right?

Why can't you trust me?

The two of us are together.

I'm pregnant.

That's wonderful!

- You really think so? - Of course.

I always thought you were infertile.

Of course, that was also one of my mistakes.

I know you've always been worried about infertility. Now you don't have to be.

To be honest, when I first found out I was pregnant, I was both happy and worried.

Of course you should be happy.

The doctors already said your illness isn't hereditary,

so you shouldn't over-worry, It isn't good for your body.

What's a child?

A child is a gift from heaven.

Erqiang must be extremely happy.

You still haven't told him? Are you trying to surprise him?

-What do you mean? Exactly what I said.

You should let him know the good news.

You're not admitting it's your child?

How does it relate to me?

You are married, have a husband, and get pregnant.

Which part is related to me?

Xiaomo, take advantage of what you know now.

Think clearly about what you should be considering.

The price for a glass of alcohol in that bar just now

can get you so much.

Some people talk a lot after they get drunk, but you chatter so much even when you don't drink.

Why do you southerners talk so much when drinking?

You're stalling. Here, drink up!

Drink!

♫ Believing in your abilities to change the future ♫

♫ Who else can accomplish this? ♫

Refreshing!

Cool! Let's not keep pretending to be deep in thought.

Don't you feel so much better now?

- Isn't it refreshing? - It's alright.

What does alright mean? I'm asking you if it felt refreshing.

♫ There are no distinctions between you and I on this earth ♫

Refreshing!

Refreshing!

Refreshing!

- A bracelet that flashes and changes color? - Yes.

That's right.

- Right. - The boss definitely

can do anything, am I right?

Boss, do you have a girlfriend?

Of course he does.

Make something for her.

I want to find a boyfriend

who has skilled hands like him too.

Big Brother.

- You're... - Big Brother, don't tell Sanli about this.

I understand.

You want to save up some money.

How did you know, Big Brother?

Sanli told me about it.

She said you wanted to move out with her and your child.

There will be many more expenses

after the child is born.

This is great.

You can make some extra money with your handicraft.

It's great.

Don't worry. I won't tell Sanli.

Alright, get busy.

Alright, Big Brother. Take care.

♫ Especially "Don't worry. Go and make your way in this world." ♫

Do you guys come here every day?

♫ I have the courage to step forward ♫

I'm telling you. If you're setting up this stall, do it with your heart.

Just put your heart into making money. Don't worry about other things.

Alright, get back to work.

What? Let me have another look at this.

♫ With your light ♫

Big Brother.

You're running a small business,

- and your profit is very thin. I don't need it. - It's really cheap. Just take it to play with.

♫ You'll meet someone who you miss again ♫

What news is this?

- That's my brother-in-law. - Your brother-in-law?

He looks so big and tall.

I wouldn't expect him to be so skilled with his handicraft. There's a girlish feeling to him.

♫ There are some words I can't help thinking about ♫

I bought this a year ago.

The receipt is also in the box.

I want to exchange it for a new watch.

Please wait.

Hello Miss. This is a limited edition watch from last year.

We don't have anything of equal grade nor value in the store that you can exchange it for now.

Why don't we come up with an agreement?

I don't need anything of equal value. I also don't need a new nor limited edition model.

Just help me exchange it for a men's watch in a simple style.

I don't want the difference.

Lingzi.

Lingzi, have a taste.

What's wrong?

How about this?

After the teacher takes attendance,

we can sneak out of her. I'll take you skating.

And then we can watch a movie after skating.

- Let me tell you, that movie— - I'm not skating with you!

Stop bothering me! Go away!

I hang out with you because I respect you.

You're the shameless one.

So what if I'm shameless?

- What are you doing? - What do you want?

- Let go of me. - I won't. Come at me.

Come at me. Look at you.

Come back over here!

Let go of me! Come back!

Let go of me!

I'm back.

You're back!

Take it easy.

I'm fine.

You watch too many TV shows. I'm walking fine, why are you helping me?

I missed you. You don't come home often after you got pregnant.

Sanli didn't even get out of bed often. How would she come back to hang out with you?

If you really miss your sister, you have legs too.

Do I dare to go to her home? The old lady in their family...

Every time I go, she gives me a supercilious look.

Also one time, do you remember? I brought something over there.

She scowled her face and grabbed it from me. I didn't bring that for her.

I know. I saw.

My mother-in-law is like that. She's greedy for small advantageous and biased.

I'm just glad she doesn't have other malicious intent. She doesn't plot against people.

She doesn't plot against people? She's concerned with your money all the time.

She almost caused you to have a miscarriage.

Your sister is doing fine. Don't be nitpicky.

Where's the old man?

Dad's not home?

He's not doing some business again, is he?

No. He went to visit some people.

He still dares to visit people?

Wouldn't the others kick him out?

I don't know what spell he's given to them.

He said something about how a near neighbor is better than a distant cousin.

And that relationships need to be mended and grudges can't be held.

Does he go out often?

It's good for him, right?

He's drinking less and can scrounge a meal every day.

He's visiting many families to get a few free meals.

Sanli, how has Yiding been recently? I haven't seen him in a while.

He's been extremely busy, working overtime even on the weekends.

Like I said,

it feels like something is off, but at the same time nothing is off.

What do you mean?

None of you brought your partners back.

Big Brother, how is sister-in-law?

She should be doing well.

Should? You haven't been communicating with her?

She's probably busy. She hasn't replied to my emails.

How's Xiaomo's health?

Big Brother is asking you about Second Sister-in-law's health.

She's stable.

Yet you still didn't bring her home?

You got your marriage certificate a while ago, but she still hasn't officially come and visited her father-in-law.

Why did you come back so early today?

You couldn't get a free meal?

Don't speak if you don't know what to say.

Every other family raises their children to provide for them in old age. Look at me,

my sons and daughters are all sent off to other families to show filial piety to outsiders.

And they don't even have the capabilities to bring them home.

One can't even manage his wife, and even gave away his wealth.

You all need to be careful. Beware of being cuckolded.

Don't speak if you don't know what to say.

Dad. I understand Yiding. Don't worry about nothing.

Barking dogs don't bite.

It's the ones who are the most honest and dedicated

that make the biggest mistakes.

I'm done eating. I'm going to go study some English.

Weren't you the one who wanted the tofu stuffed pork? It's not even touched.

Is something going on with Simei recently?

I thought she looked thinner when I walked in.

She eats more than a cat poops. She's probably on a diet, it's nothing.

Don't worry about her.

Chicken soup.

You won't gain weight eating this. Coarse grains are a good laxative.

I wanted to eat. But I lost my appetite after listening to that conversation.

Are you having another assessment at your hotel? You're on a diet?

I'll eat it.

Second Brother, you really have your ways.

Your concerns are never about the right things.

It must be hard for you.

What do you mean?

It's nothing.

People who are slow are happier.

Lingzi.

Why are you following me?

Meiziwu Rice. I got it for you.

Give it to me.

Why are you just standing there?

Qi Chenggang

hasn't sent me a reply letter in a long time.

His attitude on the phone was also very cold.

He also doesn't pick up very often.

Is he avoiding you on purpose?

Why would he be avoiding me?

Did he encounter

someone else that he liked and realize that he liked that person more?

That's impossible.

I think that he just has too many tasks and is very busy.

Maybe he's gotten ill from fatigue.

The elevation of that place is so high. You freeze to death when it gets cold.

And he doesn't have anyone to take care of him over there.

This won't do. I have to go to him and take care of him.

Don't make blind conjectures.

You're a foreman now. You can't just leave. Will your hotel grant your leave?

I don't care. In any case, I'll go look for him once my leave is granted.

I'll go with you if you need me.

Can you just leave?

You're married and have a family.

Do I really have one?

What?

A relationship that will never fall apart.

You do.

I believe that you do.

I heard what Xiao Lan said in the classroom.

So?

♫ Leave some space to time and tide ♫

So we...

♫ Maybe someone free will guess it ♫

We have no relation with each other, right?

♫ People and things from the past ♫ ♫ Which deserves to be my preference? ♫

That's right.

You heard it yourself.

Then in the future—

What about the future? It doesn't matter.

After all, weren't you

intolerant of me anyways.

How would you know if I was tolerant of you or not?

I'm being serious. I really am annoyed.

I'm annoyed at guys' obscenity. They think they're so charming.

They don't even take a closer look at themselves.

I know.

Then do you know that it feels like that with you sometimes as well?

When?

♫ Defending all my expectations ♫

You didn't buy me a water?

♫ Only light and shadow are left, hovering silently ♫

Open it.

♫ Hovering in and out of dreams ♫

Are you Qiao Qiqi?

Yes.

- You hooligan! - Second Sister, hit him harder.

Who are you?

Who are you?

A gentleman uses his words and not his fists.

I can sue you guys

for breaking in and harassing us.

What contradiction can't be solved? We can settle it at the police station.

Fine. Don't think that we're afraid of you.

It's best if you call the police. Take this kid to jail.

He's not taking responsibility for his actions. Let's see who's in the right.

You're trying to pick a fight, casually harassing and beating people.

It's shameless. I can sue you!

Then I'll sue this kid for acting indecently. The crime of hooliganism.

That's right. He's acting indecently. Take him to jail.

Stop.

Wait. Don't start a fight.

Qiqi, Qiqi.

- Qiqi. What did you do exactly? Explain yourself. - Stay out of this.

I'll tell you what he did.

He got my daughter, Lingzi, pregnant.

He's so young and hasn't even had many proper meals.

- You're hurting us. - Qiqi.

- Did you do it? - Tell us.

- I'm not sure. - You're still not admitting to it?

Lingzi said it clearly.

She told us the day and the time this happened.

It's fine if you don't believe us. But you have to believe the scientific verifications of the police station.

Why don't we just take him to the police station? Let's go.

Let's go! To the police station.

Qiqi.

Qiqi, say something. Did you do it?

See, he's admitting it!

- He's admitting it. - What do you want to do about it?

You have to tell us what we should do about this.

If you don't give us a solution today, we won't give up.

We don't have anything in our family

besides plenty of aunties. We'll come here every day.

Let me finish what I was saying.

Qiqi is my sister's child.

My sister died giving birth to him.

His dad is also never in the picture. I took this child in

and treated him as my own because he was so miserable.

I really can't bear the responsibility

for such a huge matter.

What should I be doing?

What do you mean by that?

Are you saying that this is not something for you to worry about?

It's not that my spouse doesn't care.

No matter what mistakes this child made,

you can't beat him to death.

Besides, he already made the mistake.

This is a matter that concerns the two children for the rest of their lives.

My spouse can't bear such a huge responsibility.

Don't beat around the bush with me for half the day.

Cut to the chase. Who's bearing this responsibility?

Who?

Get up. Sleep in your room.

Here. Drink some water.

Qiqi, listen to me. Drink the water. You'll feel better after drinking it.

Here.

Brother, help me.

How is Qiao Qiqi? He's at the hospital by himself right now?

He's been connected to an IV all evening. He's staying in the hospital under observation.

Auntie, we can still discuss this matter, right?

The child can only be born.

But how can a young girl in her early twenties give birth to a child in her family home?

There's nothing to discuss.

If it's like that, then there's only one solution.

Have them get married.

Married?

It's marriage we're talking about, yet it's happening so rashly.

This matter was bewildering to begin with.

They didn't consider the future of their lives when they were causing trouble.

Are you putting the fault on Lingzi?

Enough. Stop talking. My head hurts from the noise.

There's just one thing that's troublesome now.

They're below the minimum age for marriage. The residential district can't issue a proper certificate.

Then issue a fake certificate.

Enough.

Don't you think this is wrong enough as it is? It's so embarrassing.

This is what the situation has become.

We can only sincerely explain this to the residential district

and pay the fine quickly.

Qiqi needs to take into consideration the curriculum at the training school as well as his marriage.

He can only undertake the responsibilities of his family

after he learns some abilities. It's not appropriate

for Yang Lingzi to go to class while pregnant.

Do you think...

I understand.

Lingzi doesn't like attending that class anyways. She doesn't have to go.

Also, what is the deal with the fine

you were talking about earlier?

Who's getting fined? Who's paying it?

I'll ask about it.

I'll bear all the expenses.

Auntie. What do you think about that?

This is the only solution there is. So be it.

We'll go with that.

Warm your hands.

Thank you.

We're about to be a family.

I'll tell you this directly.

I indeed don't like you very much.

I don't think any mother can accept this situation.

But Lingzi likes you.

I can also tell

that you're a pretty earnest person.

From now on,

I'll hand over Lingzi to you.

She's a bit headstrong. Just be more tolerant of her.

I know

I'm dumb. I don't understand a lot of things.

But I know who I need to treat right.

Okay. That's good.

You definitely liked her back then, am I right?

Yes!

I remember we really liked drinking this before.

Let's have a good drink.

The in-laws are here.

You're Lingzi's five aunties?

-Five golden flowers. - That's right.

You won't even feel wronged getting beat up with five golden flowers promoting your good luck.

What do you think? My literary talent

is just slightly inferior to my eldest son and my brother-in-law.

It's not bad at all.

Is it okay? It's okay.

It's okay.

Classmates!

Come, we're having a toast.

Pay attention.

A toast to the both of you.

Congratulations on your wedding!

Come, Big Brother, bottoms up!

Bottoms up! Bottoms up!

Qiao Simei. Qiao Simei.

They're the ones who are getting married.

Why are you more excited than the bride and groom? Pay attention to the occasion.

Second Auntie glared at you a few of times already.

If you want to keep acting like this, you can go over there and join them.

I'll go then.

Bottoms up!

Fill it up!

Come, come.

Big Brother, a toast to you.

Have a kiss! Have a kiss!

Simei.

Come, come.

You‘re such a child.

They're wasting food.

Why don't I spend the night at the old house so I can take care of the three of you.

Don't come back and try to squeeze in with us.

Qiao Erqiang, go home.

Don't crowd yourself into the old house.

Go home.

Are the three of you really going to be okay?

What is he singing? It's so bad.

Having nothing at all.

When did your memory get so good?

I can't remember any of the good stuff. I just remember all of the bad.

I made a great mistake

having Qiqi get married.

What wrong did you do? Look at you now,

Second Brother and sister both have their small families.

Qiqi is about to be a father too.

Brother, when do you think Qi Chenggang and I will get married?

That's enough. Ask the lord, how should I know?

- Chenggang. - Qiao Simei.

You always say I'm biased.

I'm telling you. Every time I want to like you just a little bit,

you always have to do something I don't like.

- You're a pain in the neck. - I like you. Brother, I like you.

I like you.

Let go of me.

Why are you coming back to the old house today?

Why do you care?

Why can't I care about you?

I'll go where I want to go.

Who is it?

Who is it?

This dream feels so real.

You're not dreaming. Pinch yourself.

It really is you.

Qi Chenggang!

It really is you!

Why are you back? You've been gone for so long!

Why are you back?

Are you tired? You're tired, right?

- How long have you traveled? Are you tried? - Qiao Simei.

Get me one of those disposable razors your hotel gave you.

Get it yourself.

This is my Big Brother.

Big Brother, this is Qi Chenggang.

You're the soldier serving in Tibet?

Nice to meet you, Big Brother. I'm Qi Chenggang.

You don't have to be so formal. Your travels must have been tiring. You're home now.

When do you plan on leaving this time?

I won't be going back.

Really? You're leaving the army?

How long have you even been in service?

Don't be concerned with how long he's been in service for.

Aren't you about to be late for work? Hurry and brush your teeth.

Get me a razor.

Hurry. You're about to be late.

Come in. It's warm inside.

- How long have you been traveling? Are you tired? - I'm fine.

Sit here. It's warm here.

Big Brother, you're about to be late, right?

Hurry. Don't be late.

Safe travels.

- Goodbye, Big Brother. - Goodbye, Big Brother.

Have a seat.

So you came to see me once you got back?

You didn't go home? Shouldn't you go back?

I can't come and see you first?

Of course you can.

So am I the first

in the list of people you want to see?

Are you hungry? Should I cook up some noodles for you?

Do you like to have it a bit tough and chewy or sticky and soft?

How about this? I'll go boil some water for you. Wait for me in the kitchen and take a hot shower first.

A shower in the kitchen?

I'll get you a basin and a bucket.

Don't bother.

I'll go to the bathhouse.

The bathhouses aren't open this early.

Why don't you have some noodles first and wait for me?

It's fine. I won't dislike you no matter how smelly you are.

Why do you smell so much like alcohol?

Did you drink?

Wait a second.

Here you go.

What's the meaning of this?

Use this for now. Have a shower at the bathhouse.

I'll wait for you at home after I cook the noodles.

You know the way, right?

What the hell is going on?

This is my fault. I also only found out after I got back from my business trip.

Xiao Qi probably told mom to not tell us about it. He's embarrassed to see us.

This is too absurd.

It's my fault.

I knew that he was dating that girl before I went abroad, but I didn't warn him.

What were you doing?

If you paid more attention to him, Xiao Qi wouldn't be in this situation. He's still so young.

I know. I know it's my fault, but there's no use in regretting it now.

If there was any use regretting it, I wouldn't have suspended my job.

I would've taken care of Xiao Qi myself, not asking a favor from anyone.

Are you blaming me for not taking good care of Xiao Qi?

I came home immediately after getting off the plane to wait for you here.

I hardly even closed my eyes.

I was afraid you'd get too agitated after hearing the news so I came back to comfort you.

Qi Weimin. We've been good enough to him.

To be frank,

we shouldn't be the ones feeling guilty about this.
