[Episode 24]

- The candy is here, baby. - I'm back!

Come, have a candy. Mommy is back.

Good.

Here, have some meat.

Mom, I've told you many times.

Xuan Xuan can't eat this bun.

He can't absort so much salt from it.

Why do you also give him candy?

Here, baby, give it to me. This isn't good.

What's bad about it? What can't he eat?

This is how the older generation was fed.

We never saw any child get a problem from eating.

When he was young, If I hadn't aggressively fed him,

Yiding might have not grown up so tall.

It was during that era when people didn't know, and they just tried without knowing.

Now we all pay attention to children's supplements.

I finally stopped Xuan Xuan from eating sugar and salt.

But you are doing it still...

Are you afraid that he'll be sick from my feeding him?

If you really want to be thoughtful, then don't work the night shift.

You may as well quit your job and stay home to take care of the child.

Yiding is a senior specialist now.

He even has apprentices. He makes a lot more money than you.

We aren't impressed by your five bags of rice.

Besides, they are kept in your own little storage. (T/N: she is talking about money)

Mom, these are two separate matters.

I'm talking about what Xuan Xuan can't eat.

Why are you talking about my work?

Also, it's a different era now.

When a woman has children, she can still work.

- Here, Xuan Xuan. - You can really argue.

Those who don't know may actually think you are a female entrepreneur who owns a fabric factory.

There is no distinction between low or high, noble or lowly, when it comes to work.

What's important is to do something.

If I have to resign to take care of kids just because I make little in wages,

what if I make more than Yiding? Maybe he should resign?

I actually don't want to bother you.

To say it openly,

you are not happy, and I'm not happy either.

But Yiding and I are both busy at work.

Neither of us can spare the time. What should I do then?

If Yiding can hear you,

he will be bitterly disappointed.

He is working outside to make money for you. I stay at home to help you take care of your child.

And you still complain a bunch.

How can you say that?

Is Yiding making money for me?

For more than a year now, how much money has he given for Yining's house?

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have to work so hard.

We could have saved money and moved out already.

So you actually want to establish your own household.

Fine. If you can, leave now.

I won't need to watch over the kid.

We won't move, and we don't need you to watch the kid.

I will come home every day to watch Xuan Xuan eat, you won't need to worry.

Second Brother, we are leaving.

Drive slowly.

Simei, let's go.

Why are you still eating?

You're eating so much in the morning...

- Here. - I don't want it. Don't use your hand...

Lower your voice.

Does it taste good?

Let's go. Let's go.

We're running late.

Come down. Come down.

- Down, down, down. - Which family's kids? Come down.

They stepped on the car.

Uncle, can I play with your car?

It's not a toy. This is dangerous.

You kid! In the little time I was dumping the bucket,

you ran around and came here.

Simei, has the kid touched your car?

No.

The kid is immature. I'm sorry.

It's nothing, Aunt Wu. I'll take him for a ride next time.

- Really? That's great! - Say thanks to Uncle and Aunt.

Thank you, Uncle. Thank you, Auntie.

- Older Brother and Older Sister. - Qiao Simei!

Stop right there!

Roll down the window!

Did you sneak into my lunchbox?

Aunti, you are old and still steal a bite?

Just a little bit.

You don't use that hold under your eyebrow? (T/N: idiom, Don't you use your eyes to look?)

Look at it yourself. See how little is left after you ate!

If you were really eating, would you have eaten my lunchbox too?

Second Brother, don't be upset.

Simei just got promoted to be the housekeeping manager.

Her work is busy and the stress is high, so her appetite is bigger.

You are not on a diet anymore?

Let me tell you, when you steal other people's food, each bite will make you fatter by 10 kg.

- So? - Okay, okay.

Second Brother, get into the car.

I will take you on the way.

Don't take him. Don't take him.

I don't care if he takes me.

- Why are you getting in here? - So what? I am in already.

- Shameless. - You'll be so fat!

[Yi Jiang Gate] (One of the city gates of Nanjing)

Actually, I was eating from that lunchbox for your sake.

Using a wet hand to touch flour. You just know to take advantage.

Sure. A younger sister takes a bite of rice is taking advantage.

When a tofu master eats a bite, that's totally justified. You are so great.

- I do not allow you to say this— - about my master.

You say this all day. My ears about to get callus from hearing it.

Chenggang, stop the car by the side of the road. We're almost at the station.

I should still take you to the restuant, Second Brother.

It's fine. I'll take the bus by myself.

What's the matter? You feel like vomiting?

I feel a little nauseous. Ate too much just now.

I told you not to eat Second Brother's lunchbox, but you insisted.

Why do you have to bully him?

I think that tofu master is very nice to Second Brother.

I'm not bullying him. I'm just teasing him.

Besides...

What are you doing? Are you taking the wrong way?

I'm taking you to the hospital for a check-up.

Are you worried about me?

It's really nothing. I'll just eat less next time.

Count the dates.

Are you perhaps pregnant?

That's true. It's really possible.

That's not right.

Why did you discover it first? That's now how it's played in the TV dramas.

How can you feed that way?

Aren't you going to choke the baby this way?

When you feed this way, what if it goes into the brochial tubes...

Don't worry. Hugs. I'm here.

No, I was just...

Come, come. What? You were just what?

You know now, right? That's why I am too worried to let you do it yourself.

You don't know how to take care of a child.

Be good, be good, don't cry.

Mom, you are still sick.

A child's immunity level is low. What if you pass on the flu?

Do you think I want to?

Are you able to do it by yourself?

How can I make you understand?

You have a soft temper.

Back then, if you were

just able to hold back a little,

you wouldn't be left by yourself to take care of the child, right?

it's really great now. Lingzi went to Shanghai.

You tell me. Does Xiao Zhi have a mom or not? What's the difference?

Okay, okay, okay. Look, look, look.

Hurry and look.

- Older Brother, Older Sister. - Who is this baby?

How is Xiao Zhi? Auntie.

Weiming, you guys are here.

This kid...

She didn't sleep all night, and the medicine can't be fed. She spit it out.

We'll take her to the hospital.

Alright, alright.

What is it? Come, come.

Don't be dazed there. Hurry up.

This, this.

You guys go to the hospital then. I will stay with Auntie.

Okay. Hey?

Bring Xiao Zhi's food and medical history.

I'm afraid that you won't remember when the doctor asks.

- Okay. - Xiao Zhi, be good.

- Don't cry. - Come. Come inside to sit.

Excuse us.

What are you doing? We're still in the hospital.

I want to touch it. This is so unexpected.

You can't feel anything yet.

They say you have to wait seven or eight months before you can feel anything.

What? Aren't you happy now that you'll be a dad?

No, I feel that

I don't know what to say. I don't know how to be a dad.

I just feel so surprised.

What is it that you don't know? If Qiqi can be a dad, can't you?

Aren't you silly!

Don't cry. Don't cry.

We'll get a shot. After the shot, you'll be fine. Don't cry.

Don't cry. Let's find the doctor.

Xiao Qi! Over here!

Older Brother.

You take the medical history, and I'll hold the kid.

Don't cry. Don't cry. We'll go find the doctor.

Here.

[Divorce Agreement]

Here are the new bottles and diapers.

Some of the clothes here are new. Some are old. You can pick what you like.

This one is good. The fabric is nice and can fit either a boy or a girl.

Yicheng's wife left me this before she left.

I wonder how she is doing overseas.

It must be expensive judging by the fabric.

It was generous of her.

She bought that for her own child.

How about Big Brother?

What did he say?

He is happy for you. He wants you to be careful.

If there is something you want,

Leave it to the men.

None of them are home now.

Dad went to the barber.

He's so old.

He dress like a young man, but no one pays attention to him.

Second brother is busy working at the restaurant.

Chenggang is not home yet either.

I can understand why Second Brother works late. Restaurants are busy at night.

As to Qi Chenggang, you should watch him closely.

Why? Want Yiding works late too.

Are you watching him too?

I should go home soon. My mother-in-law is looking after Xuanxuan.

I'm a little worried.

Since I got married,

You and Big Brother rarely come home for dinner.

You really distanced yourself.

Do you think god measured out

the relationships and happiness for each of us?

I have a good romantic life. So my family life is lacking.

Your life must have been too good.

The happier you are, the more you think about bad things.

As we grow older,

We are more focused on our own lives.

You are living home with dad and Second Brother. And you don't have a mean mother-in-law.

You should be content.

This little guy.

He didn't notified his mom until now.

A heartless kid like his mom.

I come back

To get a divorce.

I didn't want to keep this from you.

I have fallen in love with someone else. He's client of mine.

He knows about my situation, and is willing to take in Xiaozhi.

So you are in love with him and wants to be with him.

What is true love? What is love?

I don't know.

But I know. I don't love you anymore.

I want to be with him.

Since the beginning, neither of us have figured things out.

It's good that we can lay the cards on the table. Don't you think so?

I don't know if I love you either.

I don't know what I'm sad about.

I am grateful that I met you.

Because I gave you a child?

It's not that.

Maybe it's because you made me feel

That I was good for something.

After we are divorced, I want Xiaozhi to stay with me.

I won't agree for you to take her away. But I need some time to find a place to live.

Qiqi. You don't need to move out. You can stay here.

Dad and I will help you take care of the childe. We will live together.

She can go wherever she wants.

You still have a candy in your mouth. Do you understand?

Mom!

- This brat. - What are you doing?

I didn't mean it.

If you didn't mean it, why did you push him so hard?

If I meant it,

I'll be hit by a car when I go out.

I don't buy this.

What do you want?

What's wrong?

Why did you come back?

What's wrong?

What's wrong? Why are you crying Xuanxuan?

- What happened? - Why is he crying?

Did Wang Yiding bully you?

My Mother-in-law. She pushed Xuanxuan.

Let grandpa carry you.

There, there.

I don't understand.

People say, "the youngest son and eldest grandson are treasures to an old lady."

It doesn't seem that way in your house.

Enough.

Grandpa will give you some snacks.

Grandpa will get you some snacks.

Here.

Look. What is this?

Xuanxuan. Look.

It's full of treats.

Look.

My sister is at my place. Come over here, quick.

Who told you to call Wang Yiding?

Mind your own business. And don't tell Big Brother either.

Do you like it?

Sanli.

Thank you Simei.

- Let's go play. - Dad.

I'm sorry. I went home just now.

What are you apologizing for?

You should get some rest at home. You have labored so hard and achieved so much.

No. I talked to her seriously.

She regretted pushing Xuanxuan.

I don't think she does.

I told her we won't give her more pocket money.

As Xuanxuan grows older, we need to spend more money on him.

I told her,

I told her...One should look after oneself.

Just bear with it for a little bit longer.

Once we save up enough money, we will move out immediately.

What are you doing?

Let's go home.

If you don't forgive me.

I will kneel down.

Kneel.

Really?

A man has gold underneath his knees- Okay, I'll kneel.

Stop it.

- Dad. - You must really respect her.

Go get the child.

Stop it!

Hurry. Let's go.

Take the bag.

Dad, mom, I'm heading out.

♫ Leave some space to time and tide ♫

♫ Maybe someone free will guess it ♫

♫ People and things from the past ♫

Don't be embarrassed.

Just stay in my house.

I think we are still family.

Of course.

I still want to take advantage of you, although we are not married anymore.

I still want you to take care of my daughter, and my parents.

Don't worry about it.

I'm telling you.

Don't be a fool.

Don't get tricked by young women.

I didn't get tricked.

I did it of my own free will. I won't do it again.

Don't worry about me.

♫ Do we talk about our colorful memories ♫

♫ At the end of the memories, you're standing outside the door ♫

♫ Defending all my expectations ♫

♫ Regrets stay behind after a storm ♫

♫ Hovering in and out of dreams ♫

Mom.

Where are my two suitcases?

I haven't seen them.

Qiqi.

Wash your hands. Get ready for lunch.

Aunt Wu.

Simei? I didn't recognize you.

Why are you by yourself? Where is Chenggang?

Why isn't he with you? You are with child now. You must be careful, okay?

It's fine. He hasn't finished working. Once he's finished, he'll come home to be with me.

Oh yes, Simei. Taxis have good business these days.

Chenggang must make a lot of money.

It's more than the lowest but not quite that much.

But there's one thing good about Chenggang.

He takes money with his left hand, and hands me the money with his right hand.

He is the rake that rakes in money, you are the basket that holds the money.

You are a match made in heaven.

What a perfect match!

That's right, Mom. Chenggang is also good-looking.

That's it then. You stay busy, I'm home.

- Okay. - Bye, Aunt Wu.

Mark my word here. That Qi Chenggang...

Take your things.

Hello.

Hello, Chenggang. Are you still getting customers?

I just finished with one. What is it? Anything the matter?

Are there a lot of cars on the road now? If you are tired, just get a nap, you must not—

I can't stop here too long. Let me call you back later. I'll hang up now.

Where are you going?

(cries)

Are you alright?

Go.

Why don't you change to another taxi?

You're kicking me out? I'm not leaving.

Where are you going?

Just drive. Anywhere is fine.

Where do you live? I'll drive you home.

Hello.

Hello?

Hello, who are you looking for?

Hello?

Who is that?

I don't know. Probably wrong number.

Yicheng.

Hurry and sign.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

I've thought it over for a long time, and also suppressed myself a long time.

But in the end, I still made this decision.

I'm sorry.

I could feel it

when we said farewell at the airport,

that our marriage had already reached its end.

I don't kow when we reached this point.

But, no matter what,

I bear the most responsibility for this ending.

Therefore, Yicheng,

please fulfill me, and don't hate me.

Even though I have my parents and brothers in this world,

but I don't feel that they are my family.

You are the only one.

We are the closet family from now on.

Even though we are at two ends of the ocean, let's not forget each other.

- Okay? - Which one do you want? - It doesn't matter.

Even though we aren't related by blood, don't forget our bond.

Take care.

♫ Leave some space to time and tide ♫

♫ Maybe someone free will guess it ♫

♫ People and things from the past ♫

♫ Which deserves to be my preference? ♫

♫ Old times that have turned yellow ♫

♫ A discolored time sign ♫

I really wish there is a window that belongs to me.

Qiao Yicheng.

What is it?

I want to marry you.

Hello, Brig Brother. Sis said something happened to Yiding. Hurry and get over there.

- Big Brother. - Big Brother.

Big Brother!

If anything bad happens to Yiding,

I'm going with him.

Don't talk nonsense.

What exactly is the matter?

I was preparing dishes in the restaurant.

When I was busy, the boss told me

- to answer a phone call, and then— - Get to the point!

Oh yes. Yiding was maintaining the equipment in the machine room. The machines were stopped.

No, it was...

They have forklifts in the factory.

but the forklift worker slacked off.

So the forklift and the load turned over.

Five or six people got hurt. Brother-in-law was hurt the most.

I heard all the load that fell down mostly

- piled on his lower body. - I don't want anything.

I just want Yiding to stay alive.

I don't care if he's wounded or maimed. I just want him to live.

Sanli, it's fine. I'm sure it's fine.

Sanli, the doctor who is doing surgery for Yiding is my mom's old friend. He's the best surgeon here.

Don't worry. Yiding should be able to pull through.

Hurry.

Look at this. How is this explained?

I thought a specialist isn't like a laborer.

He only needs to make money, so there isn't any danger.

Mom!

Sister-in-law, how long has my brother been inside? Why isn't he out yet?

Let's arrange a shift list.

Simei is pregnant, so she can't get too tired.

You can all go back to rest tonight.

It's useless to just wait here.

The post-operation care is crucial.

I'll stay here tonight. If there's any news, I'll notify you.

I'm not leaving.

I'll stay with him. I'll stay with him.

Sanli, there are still more days after this.

You will definitely suffer for a while.

So you must rest when you can rest now.

Aren't you listening to your big brother?

Simei.

Take your sister home now. Stay in the old house tonight.

After Qi Chenggang finishes his work, tell him to pack simple

- and stay at my place. - Okay. I'll come with Sis tomorrow.

I'll come tomorrow night.

Then, I appreciate your help.

Yes, yes. I appreciate your help.

I appreciate your help.

Doctor, how is the patient?

Yiding.

Yiding!

Yiding, you are awake.

Yo uare finally awake.

I'll get some water for you to drink.

Third Sister.

- You've come. - How is Yiding? Getting better?

He's much better today.

- I brought some porridge from home. - Thanks.

- Thanks. - It's fine.

You're here, Sister Suqin.

Fourth Sister.

Add some hot water.

- Ah. - Ah.

What's the matter?

Why did you come out?

- Are you okay? - I'm fine.

Look at the kind of people who are going abroad.

- What do you mean? - All the ones that left

are almost all female.

- That's why. - You can't generalize.

What kind of era is this? Why do you make it sound so obscene?

You don't understand it then.

It's not easy to live in the foreign country. Of course they have to use all means

and schemes so that they can stay there.

Isn't this clear?

Why are you hitting me?

- Why? - Calm down. Calm down.

Calm down. Calm down.

Stop! Don't fight!

Dont...

We are all civilized people, and also colleagues.

Why fight at work? Is it a good show? So embarrassing!

Yicheng, I've heard about your family affair.

You can let Song Qingyuan share some of your workload.

Don't let the attendance rate get too low, it'll be fine.

If you want to work at the station, then work thoroughly.

Don't let personal matters affect you.

Understood.

We don't ask a hero where he was born.

A capable person is capable anywhere.

Same with an incapable person.

- You have an interview this afternoon, right? - Yes.

Hurry and go then.

You can clean up yourself and go on.

What's the result?

Each gets 50 flogging, shake hands to make peace.

I still have to interview Minister Xiang in a while.

How about this? You go first. Don't let them wait.

I'm going home to change clothes. Are you okay by yourself?

I'm fine. I can handle this interview, but you can't handle it.

Brother, get to the point. We're rushing for time.

You've already said what I want to say. The point is that we're rushing for time.

You want to go back to change clothes. Can you make it in time?

What do I do then?

Here.

- Put this on. - What do you wear then?

I can just wear this.

- Okay. - Okay.

So what exactly is the matter with you?

Did something happen with Xiaolang over there?

Fine. Forget it if you don't want to talk.

There is nothing that can't be solved in this world.

Just study well, pass the exam, and you can go abroad, right?

Once you go aboad, you can be with her.

We are divorced.

Thanks. Please wait a moment. Minister Xiang will finish the meeting soon.

Okay.

- What are you doing? - I'm going to the restroom.

Can't you stay put? Minister Xiang is about to be here.

Going to the restroom?

I think you just want to look pretty.

You are not being interviewed. Why do you want to look elegant?

You can give me the clothes back, and wear your own battle uniform.

- You'd actually mind me. - Hurry up.

Have you waited too long?

Sorry.

Sorry, I should introduce myself.

I am Xiang Nanfang.

You must be the TV reporter...

Qiao Yicheng.

Right, Qiao Yicheng. How are you?

Minister Xiang, how are you?

How are you?

Sit.

Let's begin.

Okay. Please wait a moment. I'll adjust the equipment.

No problem.

The overall environment is gradually opening up now.

Xixia District's Department of Education is fully cooperating with us.

Also the behind-the-scene hard work by the children in the arts group.

Benefitted from the above, we finally achieved the current results. I feel very proud.

But my mission is to give opinion based on the overall situation to steer the direction.

So we can only develop a new situation by not being complacent.

As the leader of the overall environment,

your core belief is to be yourself, spur to advance and steer others.

The most important is to have imagination. We are almost in the same field.

Such as in attempting to guide others.

- Are you satisfied with your current achievement? - No.

A young, accomplished and female cadre such as yourself

is really quite rare. - Spurring and guiding others is quite hard and difficult.

- I can understand. - Meanwhile, when we face the youngsters,

we can't treat them as kids.

If you are more broad-minded, you won't be stuck in the levels of seniority,

as well as labels such as male cadre or female cadre. Isn't that right?

Yes, Minister Xiang.

I wasn't careful in how I spoke just now.

Don't be nervous. I'm not worried about it.

The vitality of cultural thought is open and unrestricted.

That why we need promotion and communication. Don't you agree?

Yes.

- Is this your cup? - Yes...

- Minister Xiang, I'll do it myself. - No problem. Sit.

Keep writing your notes.

Sit.

Is this write-up a little difficult?

No. We have robust materials from the interview.

It makes it easy to write the draft.

When I've finalized the draft, I'll forward it to you and let you preview.

Good.

Sorry, I'm late.

But I heard your interview from the doorway just now.

It's fantastic.

- Old Song. - How long have you been working?

Why are you still doing things your way?

Old-Old Song?

We are old-timers. Let me introduce.

She is my childhood friend.

When I first came in, I saw you looking at the painting.

I mistook you for him.

It's probably because of the clothes.

Do you like Chagall too? (T/N: Marc Chagall, Russian-French artist)

Yes.
