Original subtitles

How did we run into a funeral procession?

Li Yiran, you can't get away!

Zhuang Qiang

Have you come to save me?

Yiran

I've come to kill you.

Had another nightmare.

That Linda...

She's a total Dragon Lady.

Last night,

she made me pull an all-nighter.

And this morning she drags me to some team building.

Sicko.

We need the code to get out

Where's the code?

Where could it be?

Is it here?

These young folks

have no sense of when it's appropriate

Zhuang Qiang

You're so naughty!

I've missed you so much!

You bad boy

I can't wait any longer

What is it?

Don't be so impatient every time

Didn't you say

you're gonna break up with Li Yiran?

I'll break up with her the moment I'm back

I haven't wanted to see her for a long time

She's got no figure to speak of

and no money either

She can't give you what you want

I really don't know

why you're even with her

Well, that's only because I was

Too young too naive

and just didn't know any better

You're the only one in my heart

Such a smooth talker, you are

Holy shit

Don't stop

Ugh, the stench of love

This is clearly an affair!

Run!

Linda, we should've shaken them off by now, right?

Shaken... yeah, we lost them

Oh my God!

I'm so scared

It's okay

I'll protect you

I'll protect you

You bastard

You've got a mommy complex and never told me

Guess you've never had anything good in life

Boss

Boss

The show for this team building turned out great

And you performed in it yourself

The plot's a real treat to watch

May the cheating couple live happily ever after.

Didn't you say you'd break up with Li Yiran?

I'll break up with her the moment I get back.

I never want to see her again.

Yiran, let me explain.

Zhuang Qiang, I'm telling you,

what I despise most is a social climber from the country.

If you want to take shortcuts, I won't stop you.

But

please don't ever bother me again.

What... what's going on here?

That's a lot of pressure.

Zhuang Qiang, are you done yet?

Is this Li Yiran?

Who is this?

I'm Director Ma from the Lecang Chunguang Subdistrict Office.

Is something the matter?

Well, it's like this.

About your mother...

She...

What happened to her?

Don't be nervous.

It's nothing bad.

It's good news.

Your mother

in three days

is getting out of prison.

We just received the notice ourselves.

I'm calling just to let you know.

All of you, get the hell out of my way!

What do you think you're doing?!

Son of a bitch!

That'll teach you to bully my wife!

Pops!

Yiran!

Son of a bitch!

Pops

Long is the road to the Yellow Springs, walk slowly.

Half awake, half drunk, let your sorrows fade

Filial children kneel before the spirit

Loose shoes step steady through Yangping Pass

Cross the Bridge of Helplessness in peace

Ascend to the immortal realm

Return to your rightful place

Bless your children and grandchildren with fortune

Filial sons, bow your heads

Pops

Pops

Pops

After Pops passed away

I never went to visit Wu Huilian

Eight years now

She and I became strangers

I don't know how to face her

Or how to face

that past that tore my family apart

Hello? Hello?

Li Yiran, are you listening?

Yes, I'm listening

If you don't come back,

then how about

you bring her to Shanghai?

In a situation like hers

she's been locked up for too long

Some people just can't adjust

and end up killing themselves

or they reoffend and get locked up again

With you by her side

we at the office can breathe a little easier

Thank you, Director Ma

I understand

Zhuang Qiang sure knows how to put on an act.

Who knew?

Putting on a fancy act.

He's just a total player.

Only good-looking guys

get to be called players.

Him?

He's more like pond scum.

Then don't waste your tears on a scumbag.

He's not worth it.

You're right.

Starting tomorrow,

I'm putting the past completely behind me.

I'll find myself a new job.

Yiran.

I'm not just saying this,

but don't push yourself so hard.

Sometimes it's good to take a break.

Xiaofang.

What is it?

Forget it.

It's nothing.

I'm off to send out resumes.

I'll hang up now.

Hold on.

Like I don't know you.

I know you inside out.

I can read you like a book.

Come on, out with it.

Whatever's bothering you, just say it.

Give me a good laugh.

The subdistrict office called me today.

They said

Wu Huilian is getting out of prison.

Really?

That's great!

You quit your job anyway,

so why don't you just come back?

Think about how long it's been since we last met.

Go back?

No way.

It took me eight years to move past all this.

Yiran.

The past

is best left in the past.

All these years,

Auntie Huilian's been all alone in prison.

It's been really tough on her.

Listen to me.

That's enough, Chen Xiaofang.

Why are you so preachy?

I'm hanging up.

Don't!

The nerve of her.

Go home and wait to hear from us.

Sorry, Miss Li.

You're probably not a good fit for the position.

Goodbye.

Miss Li,

why did you leave your last company?

It's because

my ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my boss.

So can I take that to mean

you don't handle pressure very well?

They cheated,

so why are you the one who quit?

Are you out of your mind?

What's so funny?

Sorry, you're not a good fit.

Next.

Hey, Director Ma

Something terrible happened

Your mom's been taken to the police station

Hurry up, get back here now

Thief!

Who is it?

Son of a bitch!

What do you think you're doing?

Stealing in broad daylight!

And you almost made me

end the family line!

I'll kill you!

What do you think you're doing?!

What do you think you're doing?

Are you trying to kill me?

You want to murder me!

You...

You're trying to kill someone!

You hag!

See you at the police station!

Officer

I've been wronged

Wu Huilian

Here

Li Ermao

You don't have to stand. Sit down and talk

How were you wronged?

I'm more used to standing

Here's what happened

I was going back to my own home

I couldn't get the door open

Then he shoved that basket over my head

He attacked me first

In broad daylight,

she was hacking at the door with a hammer

How was I to know she wasn't a thief?

I was going into my own home

Why do you care how I open my door?

I wanted to get in

None of your damn business!

Let me tell you, Officer

How many times have I told you?

We're in the service industry

What's wrong with letting a customer touch a little?

Am I right?

So unprofessional

No dinner for you tonight as punishment

Wu Huilian

Let me tell you

If you don't pay my medical bills today,

I'll take you to court

Go ahead, sue me

This was self-defense

Why the hell should I pay?

Pay up

You have to pay

The kid's clothes were brand new

Officer

That alpaca peed all over the kid

Look

Look at this

If you don't believe me, smell it

Officer

That's not pee

It's because this kid

was hitting our alpaca

so it just spat on him, that's all

Smell it ten thousand times, it's still pee

Your zoo

has to pay

These clothes don't cost much

It's a minor dispute. Just pay and be done

No way

Officer, look

My...

This almost made me end the family line!

This is a first-degree disability

Don't be so dramatic

Is this some kind of harassment?

She's a woman

What are you staring at?

What is wrong with you?

You're the one who started it

You hag!

You're completely unreasonable

You stinking man

You're the unreasonable one

You started it

Wu Huilian

Here

Is this a market?

Settle down, will you?

He started it

Officer

I'm...

Wu Huilian's daughter

Are you the one in a dispute with her?

I'm sorry

We can pay the medical bills

Can we settle this privately?

See how sensible your daughter is?

Just my rotten luck

Eight hundred. Forget it.

Eight hundred? You're extorting me!

It nearly made me end the family line!

Eight hundred. I'm going easy on you

Fine then

Let's settle it privately

Settle it privately, fine

Forget it

Seventy-eight, just my rotten luck

Alright

Since you're both willing to make peace

Here, sign this

You can go now

Next time, don't get physical

Got it?

Come on, you sign one too

Why'd you hit my alpaca?

My suitcase

Come on

Come on, hurry up

Officer, sorry about that

I haven't signed yet

Here, here

Thank you

Come on, let's go home.

Yiran

Driver

Could you turn on the radio?

Alright

According to our station's report,

this day next month,

we'll welcome a new solar term,

the Start of Autumn,

marking the arrival of Early Autumn.

The grain begins to ripen,

and all the waiting finally bears fruit.

This farce after Wu Huilian's release from prison

ended with me losing 800 yuan.

This farce was just like our lives,

with no way to begin,

and no way to fix it.

But eight years later,

I still ended up back here,

the place I once desperately tried to escape.

When I got home today,

the door lock had been changed.

That's the only reason I...

You don't need to explain to me.

I wasn't the one who threw the first punch.

What's gotten into you today, Ermao?

That Wu Huilian...

Fresh out of prison and already so hot-tempered.

She nearly made me end the family line!

You have no idea what she went in for.

Murder!

I won!

Pay up, pay up, pay up!

You're never gonna quit, are you?

Your luck is really terrible.

That bastard Zhang Lijuan

Couldn't even bother to come welcome me

Forget it

Every dog has its day

You coming or not?

Welcome home, Godmother

Sister Lan

Yiran

Auntie Juan

You're finally back

I saw the door was closed just now

I thought...

that even you were fed up with me

How could that be?

I just wanted to surprise you, you know?

Thank you

Sister Yiran

Yangyang, hurry up

Say hi to Godmother.

Welcome home, Godmother

Yangyang

Godmother

Yangyang

You've grown up so much!

Wait a second

Wait

Huilian

Yiran

Uncle Daren

You're all back

Wang's aunt passed away

He went over to help

Otherwise

For something as big as your return,

there's no way he'd miss it

Huilian

Step through the door once more

The auspicious hour is here

Fire cleansing

Burn away the gloom

Let the past drift away like smoke

And welcome a brand new start

Go on, step over

May everything go smoothly from now on

Good luck and good fortune

There we go

Come here, Yangyang

Thank you, Sister Yiran

Come on, sit for a while

Have a seat, Sister Lan

Last time I saw you, you didn't have this much gray hair.

How'd you get so many gray hairs?

Well, I'm getting old.

Getting on in years, you know.

Bound to go gray.

Not like you.

You haven't changed a bit.

Me?

I just don't have a care in the world.

You, careless?

You're the most caring one there is.

Otherwise,

how'd you raise Yangyang so well?

Yangyang.

And Yiran turned out just as well, didn't she?

All grown up into a young lady now.

Time really flies

Uncle Daren

All these years

Thank you

You're back now, that's what matters

You're all back, that's what matters

You must be hungry

Let's get ready to eat

Yangyang

Huilian

Lijuan

Time to eat

Come on, Sister Lan

Time to eat

Come here, Yangyang

Bring that chair over

Have a seat, Yangyang

Yangyang

Thank you

You're all back

No more crying

Let's eat

Come on, eat

Today's a happy day

We should be happy, right?

Right

Here

Take it

Uncle Daren

Yangyang, eat up.

Here, Sister Lan.

Eat up.

Come on, come on.

I'm finally back

Come on

Let's have a drink

Hey

I've got something to tell you

I said I have something to tell you

Can't you hear me?

It's just the two of us in this room

Why are you yelling so loud?

Once I clean up your mess, I'm heading back to Shanghai

Before that

Let's agree on three rules

First

Don't cause trouble

Second

Don't cause trouble

Third

Still, don't cause trouble

Did you hear me?

What are you trying to do?!

A little stool trying to climb on the table now?

So disrespectful.

You haven't greeted me once since you saw me.

Don't you know how to address people?

Yiran

You need to pay more attention to how your mom's feeling

She'll be very fragile after getting out of prison

Encourage her to keep a positive mindset

And reach out to us if you ever need help

A brand new day

A brand new start

Gotta be happy every single day

Right, old Li?

Li Yiran, wake up!

It's eight already and you're still not up.

Get out.

Can't a person sleep this early in the morning?

I steamed you some buns and made soy milk.

Don't want it, don't want it! Get out.

Get your ass up right now!

I'm going to see your Pops today.

You're coming with me.

Ugh, you're so annoying!

Who says I'm going with you?

Whatever you say goes, huh?

I just do whatever you tell me?

Get out!

Leave me alone!

In a situation like hers

she's been locked up way too long.

Some people can't adjust,

so they kill themselves.

Or they slip up and end up back inside.

Wu Huilian!

Wu Huilian!

Wu Huilian!

Wu Huilian!

She wouldn't really do something drastic, would she?

I'm her mother, damn it!

We'll perish together!

No!
