I'll be like you

to run the flour mill with heart.

Please just give me a chance.

I said a solid no.

Dad,

go in first.

Are you still running the mill?

Yes.

Ok, you do.

Lawyer Shen,

Hello,

Then,

are you free now?

I you have time,

could you please

come here now?

Thank you, thank you.

Dad,

uncle,

why are you going for a lawyer?

Or what else should I do?

You say.

What should I do?

He's really baffled.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Sorry to disturb you.

Thank you aunt Shuai.

You talk please.

Uncle Fang.

What happened on earth?

He violated the terms of settlement.

Uncle Fang,

what did he violate?

He resigned his

very good chef job

in his restaurant

without even

talking it over

with family.

Uncle Fang,

He didn't violate

Conciliation conditions for his resignation.

He did.

Yes, he did.

He did violate.

He did. He did

violate the first rule.

The second, too.

Right?

He didn't have breakfast

with family this morning.

This is violation.

He didn't meet at the dinner.

The second rule violated.

Plus,

he,

he didn't call me every day

even he had promised.

Rule three violated.

Xiaolong,

was that so?

Yes, it was.

I,

I didn't have breakfast

with family this morning,

this I admit.

But it was a special condition.

I had fight with my dad yesterday.

As for dinner,

we haven't had it yet.

I'm about to do.

As for the call,

I'm about to call dad

before twelve o'clock.

Uncle Fang,

are you okay with this?

Here is when he

shows his petty trick.

Still don't work.

I remember,

there is another thing.

You resigned your job,

and how do you

pay me monthly three thousand yuan?

This rule must be violated.

Yes,

Xiaolong,

you promised that

you give your father

three thousand yuan as living expenses.

How are you gonna pay for that?

Deduct it from my wages.

Where do you get your wages

since you've resigned your job?

About this…

I'll work in flour mill

from tonight

all day long.

Is it appropriate

that I get five thousand yuan each month?

Five thousand yuan?

I can't even give you five yuan.

The flour you waste every day

is worth more than five hundred yuan.

But,

but,

you have to pay other people

you're gonna hire, too.

Then why should I hire you?

I've told you million times

that I won't open the shop,

I'mma rent it out.

I will charge rent.

Charge rent,

do you understand?

I don't care.

I don't agree anyway.

If you rent it to someone else,

if you,

rent it to someone else,

then you know my temper.

Fang Xiaolong!

Yes,

if the flour mill is rented out,

I'll smash it.

Don't be too much!

You hear me?

You listen to him.

What did he say?

He said he would

smash my flour mill.

He threatened me in my face.

Don't get mad.

Is it?

Xiaolong,

watch your mouth.

No,

I didn't talk nonsense.

You already threaten me once.

No, I didn't.

Let's try.

Try what?

It's too late.

Lawyer Shen,

would you please

sue him tomorrow?

Dad,

Uncle Fang,

tomorrow is Sunday.

Sunday?

Then I'm even angrier.

Restaurants and noodles shops

are closed on Sunday.

Who will I

sell all of these to?

I don't know tomorrow is Sunday.

Two sacks of flours.

You, you return it to me.

Fang Xiaolong.

No,

dad,

I'm sorry,

I really don't know

tomorrow is Sunday.

Just forgive me.

I have no time.

Uncle Fang.

Xiaolong,

go coax your father.

How do I expect you to do business

without knowing even Sunday?

What's the matter with him

to knead flour like this?

You see?

Over your growth,

when did you see dad

with wet flour on my hand?

I'mma save it.

Don't you touch it.

You know nothing,

let alone making noodles.

Dad,

how much water is supposed to

be added into the flour?

Generally speaking,

four to one.

Four portions of flour with one portion of water.

After you finish the

portion,

it's crucial that

you knead it well.

When you feel it

even-textured inside

and let it ferment.

After the fermentation,

when to roll the dough,

and roll it to what extent?

Roll it until the pastry doesn't re-roll up.

You heard everything dad just said?

Take a piece to try yourself?

What are you doing?

I haven't finished this piece,

what're you gonna do with that piece?

What are you casually looking at?

Did you remember everything I just said?

Yes.

You remember what?

Um,

four to one.

Everybody knows four to one.

What else?

And,

and this,

add dry flour.

And then,

knead until it feels tough.

How do you know if it is tough?

Um,

You should

knead it up and down,

knead it fifty times.

Dad,

have the meal first.

I don't want to.

I've got business.

You heard them all?

Try it yourself.

Thank you, brother.

Thank you, brother Tianyi.

You heard clear

everything dad just said?

Yes.

What portion?

I remember.

What portion?

Four to one.

And, and the kneading flour.

You feel it.

Fifty times.

Give it to him.

Yes, fifty times.

I'm sorry.

The first time you come at our home,

my father is busy quarreling with Xiaolong.

Doesn't matter.

There's more chances

to eat with uncle.

Right?

I'll go first.

Take care on the road.

Hurry back.

Go.

Uncle,

you're coming.

Waited a long time?

That's all right. All right.

What's the matter with Xiaolong?

Fine, fine.

Are you drinking some alcohol?

I'll do it myself.

But, but,

I'll drink water.

Is it okay?

Uncle,

Tell me

what you want.

Frankly speaking,

I don't like you.

I even hate you a little.

since the first time

you were at our door

with Tianxin,

later on,

You suddenly said you were going to fire her

and let her drink with you

the whole night.

And then you say again,

you like her,

and you said you were a

non-marriageism.

As a father,

how can I

like you,

with your variable mood.

I didn't see your

good memory.

But I'mma tell you,

you won't find another man

who treats Tianxin

better than me.

So,

uncle,

you must like me.

You lured my

baby daughter away,

what makes me like him?

In those moments you just said

with Tianxin,

she moved me generally

and changed me also.

I don't know from when,

she made me

not scared of marriage that much.

Manager Wong,

You behaved very good just now.

Wonderful.

I don't know from when,

when Tianxin is happy,

I'm happy.

Chicken feet with pickled peppers.

Tianxin's favorite.

Yes.

When she is unhappy,

I'm unhappy.

What are you doing?

Let me go.

What are you dong?

Stop fighting!

I believe that

I care her

even more than me.

So,

With this feeling,

can you please

can you give me a chance

to let me legitimately,

justly

take care of her

in front of everyone.

Uncle I promise to you…

What's wrong?

It doesn't matter.

You carrying the flour thing?

You did physical work too little.

Do you think

it's too much for me

to let you do that?

That's what it is.

You see,

I didn't

refuse Tainxin,

I just didn't

get clear of the situation.

You didn't even figure out the situation

and you punished me.

You can think about it in a different way,

and you'll be impressed.

I'm really

impressed.

So,

you'll never forget

your first visit to our house

with me letting you carry flour thing.

You'll never

forget

this father-in-law.

What did you say?

You,

I say if you really

end up together,

you won't forget this father-in-law.

You,

will always remember me, right?

You're saying you promised me?

I'll remember you.

Of course I'll me.

Don't rush.

Promise me something.

Please say it out.

You promise me,

never betray Tianxin forever.

I promise you,

please promise me

to give her a lifetime of happiness.

I promise you.

You promise me

never bully her.

Respect her.

When you're divided in opinions

and even quarrel,

you should apologize first

without any condition attached.

You promise me,

don't try to be reasonable with her,

but be emotional with her.

Because home is not office,

where you try to pull out reasons.

You promise me,

When she needs you,

you need to show up

in front of her

to give her warmness

and dependence.

Don't let her alone.

These are not too much,

can you promise all of these?

I can promise you.

Okay,

Then I'll give Tianxin's hands to you.

Treat her well.

Thank you.

Uncle, your health…

To you!

For my daughter,

This is my appointment

with another man,

I'll drink it first.

Actually I can't drink.

But I drink it

just hoping you can remember

our appointment today.

If you betray this agreement,

I will not let you go.

Remembered.

Do you feel pressure?

You scared me to death just now.

What's wrong?

I heard from Tianyi

that you're gonna take over dad's flour mill.

Then you should now everything about the mill.

So,

I'll teach you.

You,

What did dad teach you?

Kneading dough.

Flour.

But father said,

let me practice my basic skills first.

Basic skills for sure,

but this's what it takes, too.

Pour it.

When I was young,

I always heard

the sound of the machine.

Thought ideal was the only one.

I remember in high school,

one night I read book

to the very late time,

when I was about to fall saleep,

I was woken by this machine.

And I rushed down and had a fight with dad.

Then I listened

and I got used to it.

If I didn't hear it,

we would know that

dad must be uncomfortable

and thus couldn't make noodles.

it's the sincerity

that I always ignored,

Leaning with you, and you'll never age.

But your white hair is blew away by wind,

yesterday I was still in your arms

until today it's my turn to hold up to you.

Much love is put into normal life,

previous time proves my heart.

You gave us your deep anticipation.

Only hoping that it's not late to return your love.

Good.

Satisfying.

That's for sure.

I was taught by dad.

Look, dad still keeps

our toy of our youth.

It's not toy,

it's the tool dad used to beat you with.

Him!

Right,

What are you laughing at?

Be serious. I'm learning to make noodles.

I once spoke against dad,

dad held it like this.

Brother, you're exaggerating.

Like this,

Holding onto your butt like this

and run everywhere.

It's a pity.

Sorry that I didn't understand you those days.

Hoping that I still have time to accompany you.

Praying for time fixed in the dream of happiness and bitterness.

so that I can be in your warm arms.

Hoping that time could turn back

and let my little body screening wind and rain for you.

Quite focused,

quite sacred,

afraid that it's late to report your love.

If I can run through time to hug you.

And when dad finished,

he'd have a smile.

That's love,

that's his love

for three of us.

That's dad's love for noodles.

I get it.

I get it.

Mother.

How could my mother

call you so late?

You're looking for me?

Tinayi,

are you in hospital?

I'm home.

Your dad's not back yet?

Is there anything wrong

with the hospital today? Is there anything wrong

with the hospital today?

Dad's not home yet?

I,

I don't know.

His phone powers off.

He usually isn't like this.

Tianyi,

Help me find out

where he is now.

Ok, ok.

I'll call you back later.

Dad's not home yet?

It seems so.

This late.

Hello?

Me, Fang Tianyi,

Is the president in the hospital?

Okay.

I see.

Thank you.

What's the situation?

Dad's still in the office.

I hear he's not in a good mood.

What's going on?

Let me have a look.

Who?

Director.

What are you doing here?

Come here. Good timing.

Have a drink with me.

Are you not going home

this late?

Your mother-in-law

sent you here?

You had dinner?

Had a bowl of instant noodles.

How could that work out?

Come to have supper with me later

to sober up.

Then I'll take you back,

okay?

Back?

Go back to see that

tigress?

She got inexplicably drunk,

and humiliated me in front of outsiders.

I'm a director

of this big hospital

anyhow.

How am I

so suffered at home?

Why should I

live life

with a psycho?

Come.

Have a glass of drink.

What?

He told your husband,

I'm a tigeress?

I see him old to be insober now.

Mom,

You've gone so much time

with dad,

don't you two bother each other.

Please call dad

so he can go home earlier.

Tianyi is still at hospital with dad.

If dad won't go home,

so will Tinayi.

If he likes to stay in the hospital,

let him stay in the hospital.

Don't come back.

I'm done with him already.

Mom,

Don't be angry with your father.

Yield to him.

I don't care whether he comes back or not.

I won't yield to him

anyway.

It's better he doesn't come back.

I'm more free

at home.

Hello?

Dad's drunk.

Let him have a rest.

How did my parents become like this?

Tianyi,

I need you to take care of my dad.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

For what?

We're family anyhow.

When are you coming back?

Dad's drunk.

I'm here with him.

when he wakes up,

I'll persuade him to go home.

Go to bed,

don't wait for me.

All right.

You must be tired.

Good night.

Xiaolong,

mom,

are you free?

Come in and sit.

What's the matter?

It was about Fang Xiaolong.

Previously you appreciated his skill

and promoted him to head chef,

and gave him famous watch in private.

He was drunk the other day

and you let me take care of him.

You care him so much.

I,

I can't really understand.

What's not to understand?

Since he's drunk,

I can't leave him alone.

What about the chef?

the watch?

I told you

he is an outstanding worker.

Because he is

outstanding in work,

so you just

bless him and Yueyue

and opposes me to go out date with Yueyue?

Right?

Yueyue's intention has been

so obvious,

can't you see it?

It's unusual, mom.

You are not a passionate person.

Not only are you not enthusiastic,

but sometimes you are indifferent.

What you did to Fang Xiaolong

is not like you.

You're even better

at him than I am.

I just want to know

why.

What the hell are you asking me?

You're

still jealous?

Mom,

It's not that simple, is it?

Could you tell me the truth?

I'm telling the truth,

what else to tell?

You think I'm lying.

Mom, i have one question,

What is your relationship?

Come on.

Knocked on my door in the middle of the night

and ask these strange things?

Go back to rest early.

Mom's tired.

Mom!

I said I'm tired.

If the person looking for you today

is Fang Xiaolong,

I don't think you should

have this attitude.

How pathetic.

I am your son,

but you are better to him.

Son,

do you think I'm bad for you?

You can't fool people with your eyes.

Tianxin, Tianxin,

Wang was drunk on the road.

i thought he went back.

I don't know.

Wang Shuo,

Wang Shuo?

Where is he?

Where is he?

Romantic, is it?

Look,

Time is like an hourglass,

leaking the previous time,

Memories that can't be taken away ties around me.

A heart suffers from pain

and should it beat?

I try to approach to you to feel

unnamed palpitation.

How many times has flowed of affection,

Time is pulled away

to prove I'm in love with you.

The flow of time is hidden in the bottom of my heart

It turns out that only memories fixed in you,

I can just feel at ease.

Time is like an hourglass,

leaking the previous time,

and leave you tied around me.

What are you doing?

I promised uncle

to give you happiness

with my greatest effort,

This is my promise to you.

Tianxin,

Will you marry me?

Yes, I do.

Flowing time drifts into dreams,

You are the miracle of my life.

Love follows like a shadow.

Uncle Fang,

Xiaolong,

Uncle Fang.

Dad,

what are you doing?

It's what I've worked so hard at.

If these noodles are sold,

the sign will be smashed.

What are you doing?

Remake it.

Don't mess with it.

Since you can't do it, don't mess with it.

You've wasted both bags of flour.

That's all food.

Teach me since I can't.

If you don't teach me, I'll do it myself

until it's ok.

Uncle Fang,

Please teach Xiaolong.

He's really serious t

about learning to make noodles.

He wants to make noodles

as good as you do.

Bring the flour here.

Told you to bring the flour here

Knead dough with that machine,

you can do thirty catties once.

Four to one.

Four portions of flour and one of water.

Pupils can understand it.

Since you want to learn,

learn from scratch.

Scatter flour twice.

Look,

you close up with left hand,

rub it with right hand.

When you're doing this with right hand,

put forth your strength

of both waist and legs

so that you won't feel a thing after one day's kneading.

Understand?

Grind it from thick to thin.

Notice the thickness.

Make it even.

find a way to roll this oval

into a circular shape.

Exert free of your strength.

To exert it even.

The dough

will embody the time and energy

you put on it

perfectly.

Fold it up.

What we do today is

wide, thick handmade noodles.

Uncircular places will become

long strips in the end.

Shake it with your hands.

Shake it.

Come on.

Shake it

Until it's loose.
