What's wrong with singing for three more minutes?

Am I not worthy?

If I hadn't already paid,

I can sing for the entire night.

[Happy birthday to me]

Attention, passengers.

The T596 train from

Zunnan to Nancheng will arrive soon.

I wasn't scammed.

I've asked

my high school classmates.

They said their school really organised

a charity event

[Exit] [Ticket Office]

for left-behind children.

My luck has hit rock bottom.

I don't care about this train ride anymore.

I just need to stand for 42 hours.

Attention, passengers.

The T596 train from Zunnan to Nancheng...

I'm hanging up. I'm entering the station.

will arrive soon.

Please carry your belongings and board the train

[Happy birthday to Ms. Si on behalf of the world]

after checking your tickets...

Ms. Si.

at the third waiting room.

[Entrance] [Ticket Office]

Attention, passengers.

The T596 train from Zunnan to Nancheng...

She stood for

42 hours in exchange for

my way home.

Actually,

I didn't think too much about it.

It was until I sat on the train,

eating my lunch

and feeling the warm breeze

when I suddenly thought of her.

I wondered if she had enough to buy instant noodles.

Will someone give her a seat?

Even it's for a short duration,

she won't need to stand the whole way home.

During the past six years,

you didn't search for her at all?

No.

I think of her sometimes.

Guess where she's from.

Whether she's in Zunnan for a trip or for college.

Whether she's majoring in journalism.

But

I was wrong.

If I hadn't seen the winter solstice model that night,

I might have missed her.

So you're actually marrying her

as a form of repayment?

I kept thinking about what Yun Pian said.

Marriage is the price for the remaining half of my life.

Later, I found out Siqing was the buyer

and she wanted to get married.

So I gave it to her.

After all,

she already gave the full payment.

Do you like my master?

This kind of relationship is too extravagant.

Not everyone is qualified to have it.

What about Yun Pian?

She went back to Nancheng.

You...

Women's value

is not solely based on marriage and love.

That is the case for Yun Pian

and also Siqing.

I have something to do.

I have to go.

When you figure it out one day,

let's have a meal at my home.

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

Thank you for working overtime for me.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

I won't ask you to meet up with me.

I'll buy you coffee

when my studio opens.

I'm the one who asked you to come here.

Chi Zhongyu is the one who caused trouble.

I forgot to tell you.

We've known each other for many years.

We went to the same school.

I see.

Where are you going?

Do you need a ride?

I don't think so.

I'm going to meet an old friend outside the city.

Bye.

Get lost!

What are you doing?

I thought you came here to learn craftsmanship.

I can't believe you did such an underhanded thing!

[Zen Pavilion]

Get lost!

You are not my disciple.

Bah!

Who wants to serve an old man like you?

If I really relied on your skills,

I can't even afford a phone.

[Zen Pavilion]

In my life,

I've never secretly exchanged a gram of gold.

I quit.

This job is dirty and tiring.

Master Jin.

The ring you asked for is done.

Come in and get it.

[Zen Pavilion]

What a pity.

[Zen Pavilion]

Those craftsmen who worked alongside me

in the past

were not as lucky.

Young people nowadays

don't know this.

None of them are willing to study hard.

[Zen Pavilion]

[Customer Manager Siqing]

You must resolve it in three questions.

I'm in a hurry to move house.

I have only one question.

Did you get the money back?

No.

But we caught him.

At least we can stop other elderly from getting scammed.

If I had asked in more detail,

she wouldn't have lost her money.

That old woman was tricked

because her son hasn't been home for two years.

He didn't even call her this year.

Those swindlers are not fools.

They won't shoot without a target.

That's why you're not the root of the problem.

Since you're done asking,

it's my turn.

The questionnaire.

Hand it in after the holidays.

Chen's alma mater and major?

The Department of Sculpture of the China Academy of Art.

No way.

You didn't even know that Chen

refused an offer

from the Ivy League

and came back to be a farmer?

Come off it.

It's not that exaggerated,

but it's almost the same.

Chen is the pride of CAA.

The god of sculpture.

The architectural park in front of our school

is one of his masterpieces.

He didn't tell you about that?

We like keeping things mysterious, okay?

You guys know how to keep things interesting.

It helps reduce swelling.

Otherwise your face

might look bigger than Chen's later.

[Cefixime Pills]

[Cefixime Pills]

[Sorry.]

Sorry.

Kid.

Where did you learn that from?

[For Rent]

I'm back.

I've packed all the daily necessities on the list.

See if you have anything else to bring.

Do you want to invite your friends over

for New Year's Eve dinner?

No need.

I'll go home. Just drop me off at the door.

Why are you sitting here?

Keeping distance from one's brother-in-law

is the duty of every sister-in-law.

What are you talking about?

Most importantly,

I think trash like this

doesn't deserve to be seen by your husband.

For the first time in my life,

he made me feel conscious of my image.

Another annoying fan of his.

Let me tell you.

Your husband answered a phone call before you came back.

It was a young woman

with a bachelor degree or above.

About 1.65 meters tall,

weighs 45 kg

and seems quite arty.

She asked your husband out for tea and got rejected.

But before your husband answered the phone,

he hesitated for two seconds.

I think

there must be something between them.

Are you sure it was a phone call

and not a video?

A woman's basic instinct, okay?

Did your instinct also tell you that

the one over there

graduated from the China Academy of Art,

which rejected you twice,

and is known as the pride of the Academy?

[Jing Garden]

[Jing Garden]

[Jing Garden]

I'll take this.

Seeing you carry this makes me feel guilty.

If Chi Zhongyu sees this,

he'll think I'm abusing you.

Then the next day, he'll move the Civil Affairs Bureau here

and let us end our marriage in advance.

From marriage to divorce.

Nonsense.

Men and women are equal now.

I can't ask you to be a gentleman

while you're working hard

and mention gender equality when talking about women's rights.

Let's go.

I'll take one.

Let’s share the load.

Manager Si,

don’t always spoil me.

I'm just an ordinary man.

You should appeal to my pride

as a man sometimes.

An ordinary man who rejects Ivy offers.

Don't fool around with Yu anymore.

[Jing Garden]

We're sleeping together tonight?

Your room is ready.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I've prepared a gift for you.

[Hey gal, what's your bottom line?]

[Longevity and Happiness]

[Hey gal, what's your bottom line?]

Let's go grocery shopping.

Here.

Forget it.

This one is big.

How much is the fish?

12 yuan per 500g.

These fish

were freshly caught from the pond early in the morning.

Pick whatever you want.

Here.

Here.

Okay, thank you.

Here you are.

50 yuan. You still use cash?

Yes.

Here, 20.

Girl,

did you buy this bag

on the street?

How much did you pay for it?

Do you want it?

No.

[New Year's Eve]

Where did you buy this plate?

You have such a weird taste.

The photos don't even look good.

In the uptown market.

Forget it. I'll buy on Taobao.

I saw a very beautiful

enamel pot online.

It can be used to make desserts and braised pork.

Most importantly, they look very good in photos.

If I order now,

it can be delivered after the festival.

Actually this clay pot...

Which one do you think looks better?

The red one or the green one?

The red one.

But my lucky color is green.

Green then.

Forget it.

Let's get the red one.

It's Chinese New Year. Green is unlucky.

How about I buy you an egg steamer?

Every time I see you use this,

I think you'll get carbon monoxide poisoning.

No hurry.

Peel the eggs for me first.

Do I have to eat eggs?

You don't like it?

I've never liked eggs since I was a kid.

The egg white is bland and the yolk is choking.

Okay.

You peel first.

Don't bother.

It's just egg white and yolk in the end.

Let's eat first.

After I take photos.

What is this?

The Spring Garden.

Have some tea.

♫Back in the early days♫

♫I used to play those days♫

[Send red packet]

♫Until I realized that none of it was true♫

[Jing Chen]

♫I knew I would give up, I never had a doubt♫

[Siqing]

Your phone is ringing.

♫I never thought that I'd meet someone like you♫

♫Everything about you makes me feel so right♫

[Siqing]

Thank you

♫All of my life I've been searching for you♫

for giving me the Spring Garden.

[Thank you for giving me the Spring Garden.]

♫Someone to change that all of that I knew♫

♫Open my eyes and I know I've finally found what I love♫

[The two of us in a room, she stands with me until dusk.]

[Three meals and four seasons, he warms the porridge for me.]

[Everyday Life]

[Everyday Life]

[The two of us in a room, she stands with me until dusk.]

♫I let you in my life♫

[Three meals and four seasons, he warms the porridge for me.]

♫Don't want to let you go♫

♫Just wanna keep on lift up everything you've climbed♫

♫Showing the world today, you make my life complete♫

This is my first time celebrating

Chinese New Year with someone

since I started working.

♫I never thought that I'd meet someone like you♫

♫Cause everything about you makes me feel so right♫

♫All of my life I've been searching for you♫

From now on, we'll celebrate

♫Someone to change that all of that I knew♫

every Chinese New Year together.

♫Open my eyes and I know I've finally found what I love♫

♫All of my life♫

This is a big loss for me.

♫All of my life♫

It's custom-made.

What if we can't return it?

♫All of my life♫

♫All of my life♫

♫All of my life♫

US dollars?

Mortise and tenon?

I called your parents yesterday.

Jian Yue gave me the number.

Can you give me another chance to meet your parents?

We'll see.

See if I can apply for annual leave.

Okay.

[Jing Chen]

Sleep early.

[Jing Chen]

[Siqing]

Thank you, boss.
