[Meet Yourself]

[Episode 38]

Dad.

I'm afraid.

Why?

Uncle Yao is frozen.

Is he dead?

Go to clap him and check if he is alive.

No, I'm afraid.

He is dead.

Look, flies are around Uncle Yao.

Stop.

Look, Uncle Yao is wakened by your noise.

Yang Guanjun.

What's your problem?

Why did you scare the kid?

Guobao, come here.

Come on.

Ignore what he said.

Come on.

Don't cry.

Don't take his words seriously.

Ok?

Come on, good boy.

See, Uncle Yao is still breathing.

Look.

I have breath.

And I can fart, right?

Do you like it?

Yeah, when my dad did this at home,

My mom always said he is smelly.

Do you like Uncle Yao?

Then call me Dad.

Dad.

Say it again.

Dad. Dad.

Give dad a kiss.

Good boy.

Mom.

Ms. Yang.

I'm just kidding.

Is it enough for you?

I have another egg.

Do you need that?

No.

You deserved it.

What's wrong?

He hit on my wife's ring.

It swells up.

Why do you come so late?

It's a two-shareholders' meeting, why did it take so long?

Does it hurt?

I'm fine.

We just had a small talk.

What happened this afternoon?

You looked upset.

You can tell me all.

Just business stuff.

It's a mess.

No big problem.

Always small troubles.

I was thinking that there are some big troubles

that you can't solve.

I get used to that.

When he meets some troubles, he is like

he has been constipated.

Come on.

I haven't finished my dinner.

It's disgusting.

Whatever.

Look at Hongdou.

Now I should call President Xu.

It's tiring to do the decoration.

But she is so energetic.

But look at you.

Is it the same?

President Xu's guesthouse isn't open yet.

But when you renewed and opened a tie-dye workshop,

you got drunk at my home and cried out,

you were complaining about your dad a lot.

Come on, stop.

It's enough.

Don't say it all.

Really?

Tell me more.

You don't know, his tears were like a waterfall.

Okay, come on.

Ms. Xu.

I lose. Alright?

I'll drink up this can of beer.

No, no.

The rest, I will bottom up.

No.

I don't drink a lot.

Leave me some.

Leave me some.

Please.

Give me.

Or I can drink yours.

Mom.

Mom.

You're back.

Take a shower, and have a rest.

Where's Luo Quan?

Luo Quan?

Is he back home?

Yeah, I asked him to come.

My dad is here?

Wait.

I'll give him a call.

Sorry, the number you have dialed is busy now.

Please try again later.

He doesn't answer?

I guess he is busy now.

Never mind.

I'll go upstairs first.

Sorry, the number you have dialed is busy now.

Please try again later.

Mom.

Do you know where Luo Quan is?

He went to meet you, didn't he?

Yeah, this afternoon he came to me.

But I was working and busy.

I asked him to wait for me at home.

But he didn't come.

Now I called him, no one answered.

Did he talk with you about Hulu?

Yeah.

Mom.

Thanks for your understanding.

Don't worry.

When Hulu is on her vacation, I'll let her go to Kunming,

to visit you.

He didn't tell you how he talked with his dad, right?

He told his dad, Xiaochun wouldn't remarry me.

Later if you set blind dates for me, I won't say no.

But if I want to have a new girlfriend, Hulu lives with me,

then no one wants to marry me.

It's better to live with Xiaochun.

His dad was so angry, and beat him up so heavily.

He left with a lot of wounds, suffering bruises.

Xiaochun.

Please take him to the hospital.

Why did he say that?

Xiaochun.

You know him.

He isn't a bad guy.

If he does think like that,

you have been divorced for three years,

he could have started a new life long ago.

He did that for your requirements.

So he took the blame himself.

Later, please treat him well.

And talk to him gently.

Don't be angry with him.

Even if he is not your husband anymore,

he's still Hulu's father.

Right?

Luo Quan.

Mom.

Why do you come back without telling us?

Come on.

Talk to Xiaochun.

She's worried.

Xiaochun.

I was parking in the garage.

There's no signal in the elevator.

Okay.

It's fine.

Bye, take care.

Who is so boring?

Maybe some spoiled brats.

Look at this painting.

This position.

It should be about the same height as me.

And ugly painting style.

Only one shop sells spray paint in our town, right?

What if it's bought online?

Forget it.

Just let it go.

I guess it's a joke.

Later, I'll install two cameras on the gate.

It's time to install cameras.

I've bought cameras online.

I haven't received them yet.

Yeah, you're right.

More and more stuff later.

Don't worry, it's okay.

First of all, I'll change your gates.

I feel something wrong.

What?

I'm not sure.

Look.

I always feel when I meet the villagers sometimes,

they will discuss me.

Isn't it normal?

When a salesman shows up,

he will be the only topic from the east side

to the west side of the village.

The villagers will gather and talk,

that girl, is Yao's girlfriend.

She has really good taste.

So she knows Yao is a good man.

You... You're so cheeky.

Maybe they say like,

look at this pretty lady, I don't know why she likes Yao.

Why?

Maybe I'm handsome.

Granny said

you'll be ugly when you're old.

She told lies.

See you later.

Here you are.

Wait.

Give me a hug.

I'll prepare a good dinner for you.

It's okay, I'll do it.

What do you want?

No, thanks.

Your hometown recipe should be left to your hometown.

No, a chokehold is not allowed.

What?

My mom taught me.

Okay, fine.

I have to go.

Be careful.

Goodbye.

Bye.

Xiaochun.

Are you in the shop or in the warehouse?

Could you please go spray painting shop in town

and ask if anyone in our village bought white paint?

Okay.

Tell me if you know.

Bye.

Hongdou.

Hongdou.

Aunt Gui.

I'd like to see how your decoration is now.

It's the same as before.

The yard is the last part to decorate.

Now you can't tell the difference.

Have some tea.

Yeah, have some tea.

Aunt Gui.

Are you bringing lunch to Uncle Zeqing?

No.

I've done my own work.

And it's so boring.

So I walk around, and relax myself.

The warehouse, as long as I'm there, Yue, you know her,

will stare at me like this.

She doesn't say anything.

But I know what she is going to say.

Why are you here again?

They want me to leave soon.

Auntie Feng, and Aunt Baoping are working.

You always chat with them.

You must bother them to work.

So I'm here to talk with you.

Welcome.

Hongdou.

Recently rumor spreads in the village.

Have you heard about it?

If you don't tell me, how can I know?

They're saying

many people in the village want to earn a lot of money.

And they would like to run their own guesthouse.

Some villagers want to open a clothing store.

Some would like to buy a new car.

They went to the Village Committee and asked.

And Village Committee asked for Yao's suggestions.

Well.

The gossip spreads then.

They said it was Yao who suggested a lot to stop them.

They said Yao was afraid others competed with him,

so he'd lose his customers.

Also said Yao would like to earn money secretly,

and monopolize the market.

Earn all of the money.

They said that Yao knew this bookstore was going to open,

and let his girlfriend,

you, rent this house in advance.

You can earn money together.

But Yao has never stopped them from making money.

Who said that?

I don't know.

Several days ago, it started spreading.

I don't know who started it.

Aunt Gui.

I got this guesthouse,

because the previous owner couldn't do it

and transferred this house.

No one wanted to take over.

I knew that.

At that time, Huang and Yao were so worried.

I knew that.

Hongdou.

Don't take it seriously.

These people,

they were laughing at you before,

but they are jealous of you.

Even Yao has known this rumor.

If it was not Yao, others would have fought against them.

But Yao just smiled.

He just ignored them.

The villagers are too rude.

Talked the gossip in front of him.

That's why I always say Yao can be successful.

He is kind and broad-minded.

Right?

Granny.

I have a bath towel.

You don't need to...

Xu Hongdou. Well.

You are in shorts.

I can see nothing.

Why do you run so fast?

Why do you come here? It's late.

I come to see you.

You told me that you'd go to the supplier tomorrow

and come back the day after tomorrow.

You can't live without me?

Or I leave.

Hongdou.

Come back.

Have you heard about those weird rumors recently?

What kind of gossip?

Villagers said you stopped others to run their business.

They said you wanted to earn all money.

And you knew the bookstore was going to open,

so you let your girlfriend run a guesthouse.

Who told you?

Someone talked the gossip in front of you?

Not in front of me.

But I have a know-all friend.

Know-all friend?

Aunt Gui?

Right.

Have you already known it?

Ignore what they said.

I didn't tell you, because I don't want you to be upset

when you hear that.

They've painted on my gate.

Aren't you going to tell me?

Don't worry.

I'll handle it.

Then you can't only tell me the good part.

And hide the bad part.

You aren't a living filter of gossip.

I want to protect you.

You are not my dad.

You don't need to provide an unharmful environment for me.

I don't want you to be upset.

If you're like a bird of joy.

I'll be upset.

I'm not an egg, which needs to be protected by you.

I am not that weak.

We need to fight together.

Right?

Share the information.

Share the pressure.

Got it?

Yeah.

You do understand?

Have you told me everything?

Yeah.

That's all.

Really.

And this time I wasn't on purpose.

Okay.

Let me flick your forehead.

I'll forgive you.

Come on.

You won't flick heavily.

Thank you.

Kind and pretty lady.

Right.

I do have that advantage.

What should I do?

It's late.

I have to go now.

Don't leave.

Join me.

What?

Have a good rest.

In good spirits.

Good night.

Well. No.

Don't leave.

Wait for me.

I wear my cloth.

Hongdou. Hongdou.

Manjun.

Hi, Xiaochun.

Aunt Gui said you need some cleaning products.

I bring some to you.

Are you going to the farm again?

You've planted so many trees.

But you don't stay for a long time.

When you leave, how about the trees?

I rent that farm for five years.

The landlord can take care of trees after I leave.

That's good.

Manjun.

Look.

You've been here for a long time.

I didn't ask you before.

Why did you and your husband divorce?

Did he cheat on you?

No.

Then you cheated on him?

You and your husband divorced, because of cheating?

Well no.

We two were not a good match,

didn't get along well.

And after we graduated, we got married.

When we were not so mature,

we had a baby.

We were so busy

after we had Hulu.

At that time, he had a job.

Well, about 3000 yuan per month.

Later he was persuaded by his mate,

selling water purifiers could earn a lot.

His mate may earn a lot.

So he didn't talk with me, and resigned directly,

and went to sell water purifiers.

But to be honest,

he was not a salesman at all.

I don't know what he is thinking.

At first,

our relatives and friends would patronize, and buy from him.

So he'd make money at that time.

However,

each of my friends already had one,

they wouldn't buy anymore.

He had to go out and sell to others.

But at that time,

I just gave birth to Hulu.

I didn't have enough sleep each day.

Moreover, I took care of Hulu myself.

I felt

my mood wasn't good.

I was under great pressure.

And he, in order to sell more purifiers, always got drunk.

Every time he went back, he was drunk.

I had to take care of him.

Do you still complain about him in your mind?

How about you?

Don't you?

My ex-husband and I were in a traditional couple style.

He earns money, and I take care of the whole family.

Actually for many years, we even didn't have a quarrel.

He respects me.

And I care about him.

When he started to run his own business, it was really hard.

He worked day and night.

We married for 20 years.

He did what he promised me.

We had a happy life.

It's good.

Why did you divorce?

When my girl was a freshman in high school,

he was transferred to a branch office to be the manager.

However, that new office was so far away from our home.

So we bought an apartment around the new office,

he lived there on workdays,

and went back every weekend.

At that apartment, there was a camera.

I could see what he was doing on my phone.

What did he do?

He did nothing.

He lied on the couch every day,

had chips, drank beer.

And played games on TV with controllers.

Suddenly I felt

we didn't join each other's life at all

even though we were a couple.

I was jealous of him.

For many years, I have been like an aqua Bonsai.

I always envied the tree in the wild.

I wanted to be planted in real soil.

I hoped to grow up to be a tree.

One, two, three, four.

Three.

Stop here.

Stop.

Stop now.

Don't move.

Stop it. Stop.

Follow me.

Everyone, stop now.

Don't do it.

Stop. I said stop.

Stop, now.

Who is in charge?

I am.

Nice to meet you.

What's the problem?

Are you Xie Zhiyao's girlfriend?

Yes, you can call me Xu Hongdou.

Can you... tell me why you stopped them working?

Rich people are evil.

If you don't allow us to work, you will never do it, either.

Am I right?

Yes.

Sir.

You came out of nowhere and asked us to stop.

I don't know what is going on.

We can talk about it.

If I am responsible for anything, I'll solve it.

Or we can go to the Village Committee.

We won't go there.

You bribed others, so the village is helping you.

What did we bribe?

Can you prove it?

Of course, you didn't leave any evidence.

But I saw it all.

Xie Zhiyao has found new investors.

Do you want to play with fire?

Do all-around development?

We can't let them do it.

No, we can't.

Don't bully her.

You want to make money.

We have to make money, too.

Hulu, what can we do?

We have different missions.

Huzi and I go to Xie's house.

And he will ask others to help.

You go to the Village Committee.

Who should I look for?

Xinxin.

Anyone is fine.

Ask them to come to help.

Got it.

Granny. Granny.

What happened?

What is going on?

Granny, is uncle at home?

We have to save Sister Hongdou.

What's going on?

Li Zihao's uncle took so many people to Hongdou's place,

and stopped people from working.

They looked so fierce, and they wanted to beat us.

Beat you?

How many are they?

So many people, with hoes and spades.

We have to find my uncle.

I need this for a moment.

Well, I will help her.

If we can't work, you can't do it either.

You have your plan...

I don't know who said it to you.

But you can't solve the problem if you keep staying here.

If you don't believe me, go to the Village Committee,

and find the Secretary.

Or have a talk with the village Director.

Xie Zhiyao, he doesn't have the power to hide the truth,

and stop you from making money.

Don't pretend to be innocent and lie to us.

We've heard that the boss only invested in your business.

Offer us opportunities to work?

Bullshit.

He wants to be the boss and makes us work for him,

so he can make a lot of money.

He wants to be the boss above us.

Yes, only he can make money.

Why can he do it?

Well, fine.

We stop working today. Is it okay?

Let's go to the Committee.

There's no one in the office.

No one?

Xie Zhiyao is not here, either.

What do you want, actually?

Tell me.

What do we want?

We want an explanation.

We are not idiots.

Do you see?

The camera is on.

Whatever you say now is the evidence.

What I do is legal and reasonable,

so if you can't accept it, call the police,

bring it to the court, ask people to investigate.

You have many ways to do it.

But, if you disturb our work here like now,

you can be called rioters.

Rioters?

Shameless.

You put the blame on the victims.

Yes, we are rioters. What can you do?

Break it down.

Do it.

Wait a second. Calm down.

Calm down. Wait. Don't do it.

Who is here?

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Who is messing around? Who?

Who is doing this?

Now Yao is not at home, so you came to bully Hongdou?

Do you think I am dead?

Who?

Who is leading this?

Who organized it?

Who?

Say it.

I did.

Granny.

We have no choice.

Your grandson made us lose money.

Nonsense.

It's nonsense.

Did you lose it?

Please stay calm.

You don't have money now?

Do you think you are so old that we can't beat you?

How dare you?

I will beat you.

Do it. Come on.

I will kick you back. I will do it.

Come back.

How dare you stay here?

Can you stay here?

I'll leave. I'm leaving.

Are you alright?

I'm good.

How dare they come to me for troubles?

How is it?

Don't get angry.

You've kicked them away.

Even your hand got hurt.

It's because Yao's not here with us,

so they came to make trouble, to bully you.

You've done me justice.

This isn't over.

I'll go to the Committee tomorrow, and consult with them.

Villains can't do whatever they want.

They can't.

They should get punished, and make an apology.

That's right.

Come here.

Apply it.

Hongdou.

Granny.

Are you alright?

We're good.

Don't worry.

Have you called Yao?

No.

He left with Daxia to check the products,

so I don't want them to come back in a rush.

I'll tell him tomorrow.

Granny.

Did you get hurt?

Did they beat you?

No.

Granny beat them with the toy sword,

so her hand got scratched.

And, I'd return the toy sword to Hurzi tomorrow.

You should've seen it.

Granny was so cool when she waved the sword in her hand.

Was it cool?

I felt scared.

Yao is not at home.

If anything bad happens to you, he will get mad.

Xu Hongdou.

She is not here.

She left early today.

Is she not here?

I heard she went to ride a horse.

Horse?

Granny.

You should have told me if she takes Lil Cute for a ride.

You didn't ask me.

Where is she going?

I don't know.

I didn't expect you came back so early.

You can call her.

But she didn't answer.

Then wait for her at home.

Xu Hongdou.

It's dangerous for you to ride a house alone.

What if you fall?

You'll get hurt seriously.

Why did you come back so early?

I've been on my way home 4 o'clock this morning

You were in trouble.

You should have told me.

Or I would come back last night.

I told Xiaochun not to tell you.

So who called you?

Ye Sen.

I'm sorry.

I brought you into this.

It must be hard for you.

I am sorry. I am so sorry.

It was your fault yesterday.

Yes.

Yes. Yes.

I didn't, I didn't handle it well.

I didn't mean that.

Do you remember what you promised before?

We shouldn't hide anything from each other.

We'd share our information and fight together.

Is it right?

Yes.

So why didn't you tell me someone would invest a lot

and you have an all-around development plan?

It's a bit complicated.

I'm not sure about the investment.

It will let you down, so I didn't say anything.

Secretary had a meeting in the town yesterday.

He went to discuss it.

Let me down?

What they offer is really profitable.

If we develop our village,

villagers can make a lot of money from the rent.

There will be more work opportunities.

It's good for your business.

And I can earn a lot from it.

For our future, we'll have more chances.

But if we do it,

our village is like a car only with a throttle,

but without a break.

So we will die of car crashes,

or we have to wait till we run out of energy to stop.

This is different from our local development initiative.

So I want to wait and see

what kind of decisions our Village Committee make

then I'll make up my mind.

Xie Zhiyao.

Do you really think

I love your money?

Of course not.

So in your eyes, I'm always on the make.

I seek nothing but money.

Do you think so?

You think I'm looking forward to the investment

and hope you'll accept it.

After all, I wasn't born here.

I wouldn't feel I belong here.

Then, when the villages are out of resources,

I'll find another Yunmiao Village,

and keep sucking blood like a leech.

Do you agree?

That's not what I think.

But in all, it's all my fault. I am sorry.

I hope you won't get angry at this, will you?

You keep looking down at me,

right?

Do you think I am your girlfriend, so you say sweet words?

Right?

Whatever happens, you always apologize first,

and say you're sorry.

Wait.

What's wrong with my apology?

What's wrong with being nice?

Well, well, well.

I am sorry.

I'll stand here and take the punishment.

What you said is the right thing.

We should...

Just leave it for a moment.

Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou.

I don't want to talk to you.

Granny.

Are you going to the market?

Take a break today.

Could you go to help at Hongdou's place?

Why don't you go there?

I have to find them,

and I will stop them from coming to her.

How can you do it by yourself?

You should report to the office.

The office will solve the problem.

No, I can't.

I have to do it alone.

You're mad now.

If you find them, you will fight with them.

The odds to win are for me.

Sit down.

Did you quarrel with Hongdou?

She said I looked down on her,

I spoiled her and overprotected her.

So, whatever I did is wrong.

What can I do?

Your strategies to take care of me are not working for her.

Wait. What do you mean by strategies?

It sounds like I am pretentious and have bad intentions.

Do you think I am too old to have a clear mind?

So you have to take me as a baby.

Do you think my brain is not working?

So you don't have to tell the truth,

making me happy is enough for me.

You think what you do is good for me,

so I have to do whatever you say.

If I don't listen to you, I am the trouble.

But to be honest, I am not stupid.

I'm listening to every word you say,

because you will be happy about it.

So is it all for me?

Sure.

You are my grandson.

I don't haggle over it with you.

Shall we?

Take me to the stall.

No. Granny.

You should go to help Hongdou.

Why should I do that?

Our daily life is not over even some bad things happen.

Let's go.

You don't take my orders, do you?

President Xie.

Granny.

What's going on?

Director asked me to tell you to stay calm.

Don't take others there for more trouble.

And he said he would solve it.

No.

I have to solve it on my own.

Don't act like a kid.

You can't solve the problem by letting out your anger.

You should think.

Will Hongdou keep running her business here?

She said it every day, peace brings prosperity.

Don't you have a bigger picture?

He's mad now, so he has lost his head.

Listen to Huang, you should think in Hongdou's shoes.

Well, they must say sorry to Hongdou.

No problem. An apology.

They will do it.

Great.

Time to leave.

Move.

Let's go.

Go.

Be careful. Granny.

Here.

Lock the door. Granny.

Mr. Yang.

You... Why are you here?

Nothing.

What, what about a cup of tea?

Okay.

Well, the ingredients of coffee are needed more

when it is in this season.

As well as the desserts.

This month has a few holidays, so we have to prepare more

in advance.

It's right.

When I go to the supplier next time,

I will buy more ingredients for coffee and desserts.

Good.

And look here.

Hello, kids.

Are you Hulu?

Am I right?

Do you know me?

Of course, I do.

Hulu is the only girl in the four kids.

And I know you, too.

You're Guobao.

But I can't tell who is Huzi and who is Tuotuo.

I am not sure about it.

I am Tuotuo. And he is Huzi.

So your name is Tuotuo.

Who are you?

You must have heard of me.

If I tell you,

you'll get scared.

Why are we scared of you?

Are you doing child trafficking?

We will not eat your snacks or leave with you.

We are not afraid of you.

My mom and uncle are in there.

If I shout out, they'll come to kick you out.

Well done.

That's what you should do.

Xie Qiang.

Get in.

Have fun.

Qiang.

Xiaochun.

Xie Qiang?

He is Xie Qiang.

What are you running for?

Yao.

Good to see you.

What do you drink?

Coffee or tea?

I'm good with it.

I'm not thirsty.

Then water.

I went to your horse ranch.

It's terrific.

Every time I invited you to my house,

you didn't come at all.

No, I had to fertilize the orchard recently.

I didn't have time.

Take a seat.

I don't have to.

Make yourself at home.

Just sit down.

Sit.

Though you're back for a few days, you got tanned,

but you look energetic.

Yao.

Look, the smartphone you gave to me is so advanced

that I don't know the function.

It's a waste to me.

Take your time to learn it.

You have to learn and adapt to new and good things.

What's the problem?

Don't be shy with me.

Just tell me.

Yao.

My...

My parents are getting old now,

I don't want to work away from home.

When I was in prison, I figured it out

that how much money I make doesn't matter at all,

as much as it is enough for a family.

So...

I want to ask you for a favor.

If you need any labor worker,

can you tell me?

I can carry bricks and load up or unload packages.

Not only in the orchard,

I want to do some part-time jobs.

No problem.

It's not bad... to work in the village.

But, a village is small,

and people are too bored,

so some of them like gossiping about others.

They don't have bad intentions.

Just to kill time.

Don't mind if you hear some.

It'll be over if they find no fun in it.

I'm fine.

It's just...

my mom will worry about it.

Don't worry about Auntie.

She's been through a lot.

So it doesn't bother her at all.

Yes, she is.

By the way,

how is your girlfriend?

I heard from mom when I came home last night.

She's good.

It was because of misunderstandings and gossips.

SYao.

You have to face a lot every day,

it's hard to go through it.

Nothing is easy.

It's hard to keep a career.

It's hard to maintain a relationship.

Nothing is easy.

♫ Listen to the rain falling into the silent forest ♫

♫ Enjoy the mountainous landscape at sunset ♫

♫ The raindrops on the roof fall into the eyes secretly ♫

♫ The world is like a quiet island ♫

♫ The sky is turning bright silently ♫

♫ Waiting for the seabirds to call forth the ripples ♫

♫ Waiting for the sunlight to shine into my heart across the lake ♫

♫ Set sail when it's windy ♫

♫ The reflection of clouds, the changing moon and the stars all over the sky ♫

♫ The lost footsteps will be gradually erased ♫

♫ The light and shadow of four seasons ♫

♫ I've seen the meteor that lights up the night sky ♫

♫ When the wind rises, the sky will be cloudless ♫

♫ When the wind rises, the sky will be cloudless ♫

♫ Go to a windy place to meet you ♫
