=Episode 15=

Dad, what's wrong with mom?

The neighboring Lane 111 is demolished,

but the Lane 113 we live in is not.
She's upset.

Zao, go downstairs to fetch water.
I'll wash the vegetables later.

Okay.

What's the matter?

Are you okay, mom?

It's fine. No worries.

Get out of here. I'll clean up.

- Come.
- Peace in pieces.

Let me see if your hand is fine.
And this hand.

Our family has fallen on hard times.
What bad luck!

Mom, eat while it's hot.

There are two poached eggs for you.

Eat up.

I don't want to eat. It's so hot
and our fridge is broken.

The food in the fridge
will go bad tomorrow.

I planned to move it to the fridge
of our neighbor, Mrs. Wang.

But her fridge is full.

Now, we can only buy a small amount
of food every day.

It is so hot.
When will our life get better?

Mom, it's just an accident.

Anyway, our house won't be demolished
at the moment.

How about we fix up our house?

Otherwise, it will happen frequently.

It's really dangerous.

What? Do you know how much it costs
to fix up a house?

It's easier said than done.

If it could be fixed,
it would have been done.

Huan, what's really going on
between you and Jialiang?

Mom, you already know the answer.

Why don't you reconsider it?

I really regret it.

In a fit of anger, I said those words
that upset them. Huan.

I know you can't get over Jialiang.

Mom, you didn't say anything wrong.

Also, how many times have I told you?

I have nothing to do
with the Xin family anymore.

Don't...

Don't be silly, okay?

You have nothing to do with them?

If you marry Xin Jialiang,

you won't have to live

in a dilapidated house
with many problems.

Let me make it clear.

It's not for me but for your own good.

I hope you can live a better life.

As for me, I'm used to it, right?

I've lived in this dilapidated house
with your dad for over 30 years.

And I have spent most of my time
in the tiny kitchen.

I'm used to it. What else can I pursue?

I did it all for my daughter and son.

Enough, mom.

I'll hire workers to repair our house.
Don't worry about it.

I will figure out a solution
for our house, okay?

You figure out a solution?
What can you do?

Even if you resolve it,
it'll just be temporary.

You can't resolve it permanently.

How much do you earn each month now?

You work for a lifetime
and can't even afford

a bathroom downstairs.
Do you understand?

Can you start over now
if you give up on Xin Jialiang?

You're a single woman aged 30.

Enough, mom,
why did you bring it up again?

Mom, don't pressure Huan.

Alright, Huan will hire workers
to repair our house.

She's doing great enough.

Don't overthink

when something happens
and you get scared.

Stop it. Only I'm overthinking, alright?

And the Mai family is different.

The three of you are noble,
lofty, and glorious,

while I'm the only one
who's tacky, alright?

Yu.

Your mom is upset

because our house can't be demolished.

It's all my fault, anyway.

I'm not capable enough
to provide my family with a good life.

That's not true. It's not your fault.
It has nothing to do with you.

Zao, stay here and keep dad company.

I'll go look for mom.

Mom, I was wrong.
I shouldn't have spoken so harshly.

Please don't be angry, okay?

Mom.

How could I not be angry?

I can't give up pursuing a better life.

Otherwise, I'll be slack
for the rest of my life,

and there will be no hope
for our family.

I can surrender to hardship.

but you can't.
You must live a good life.

Mom, I'm okay
with my life the way it is.

Anyway, wherever you are, I'll be there.

If the house is broken, we'll fix it.

We do it slowly,
and it will be repaired.

Everything will be fine
as long as our family is together.

Fix it? You can fix it now,
but can you fix it for a lifetime?

Alright, you go. Don't follow me.

Hello, when can my fridge be delivered?

Okay, please deliver it
as soon as possible. Thank you.

A banner, 300 yuan,
and renewal commission, 2,000 yuan.

1,800 yuan after tax.

(Account Overview,72454.75 yuan)

(Transfer from Zao)

Why did you transfer money to me?

I want to do my part for the family.

You just started working.
Where did you get the money?

I earned it by being a tutor.
What do you say?

As my name shows,
I do things as early as possible.

I have money now.

Don't pretend to be rich.
Take your money back.

Huan, can you not be like this?

Whether good or bad things happen,
you always hide them from me.

Am I still a part of this family?

Anyway, our house can't be demolished.

You can spend it on the renovation.

And you don't save much money.
Let me help a bit.

Besides, you used to
give me pocket money.

If you don't need my money,
you save it for me.

Give it back to me with interest later.

Alright, I won't reject your kindness.

I'll take the money.

Time to sleep.

Good night.

Chengzao, you've been doing great.

Work harder,
and I'll reward you next time.

Thank you, supervisor.
I will continue to work hard.

Dad, how come you're making breakfast?

Your mom went to bed late last night.
Let her sleep more.

Today, I'll show you my cooking skills.

Come on. Eat while it's hot.

Huan, come on.

Dad is making breakfast?

Today's soup dumplings are tasty
with thin crusts and lots of filling.

Take one bite
and get a mouthful of soup.

They're delicious and juicy. Come on.

Dad, I'm running late for work.

I'll finalize
the renovation company today.

Then there will be several plans.

You can choose from them.

Huan, wait a minute. I'll go with you.

Let's go.

Wait.

For each of you. Eat it on the way.

Your mom told me about this last night.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- It's well-prepared.
- I gotta go, dad.

I'll eat it.

(Sanheli)
You don't have to get off work early.

I'm close to home.
You just focus on your work.

Don't let anything affect your work.

Got it, Huan.

You take this and be safe on the road.

You too.

(Partner Service Center)
At ease.

Attention! Now, let's shout our slogan.

Delivery!

The hungrier, the faster!

Delivery!

The more you eat,
the more handsome you get!

Applause.

Today, I would like to praise
the new delivery guy, Mai Chengzao.

Although he just started working,
he's been doing great.

Put on the champion helmet.

(With the helmet,
you will be safe and lovely.)

Applause.

Guys, be safe. Keep it up.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Hello.

- When will my food arrive?
- I will be there soon.

- Hurry up.
- Got it.

Chenghuan, hurry up.
Mr. Wang has rushed you many times.

I've arrived.

Mr. Wang, I'm sorry
to have kept you waiting.

What took you so long?

The takeout can't be sent up,
so I had to fetch it downstairs.

I have spent so much money
to live in your apartment.

Am I the kind of person
who can carry such heavy items?

I'm truly sorry, Mr. Wang.
The takeout can't be sent upstairs

in response to concerns
over customers' privacy and security.

Besides, housekeepers can
deliver it for you.

You're Mai Chenghuan, right?

Yes.

Are you trying to teach me what to do?

Not at all, Mr. Wang. I apologize
for any inconvenience caused to you.

I will notify the cleaning staff
to clean it up right now.

- Room 412, hurry up.
- I wait again?

When can the cleaning staff come?

My friend is about to arrive.

The floor is messy,
and the smell is bad.

You're here. Why don't you clean it up?

No problem, I just think

that I can't clean it up thoroughly
by hand.

Let me quickly clean it up first.

Later, the cleaning staff
will clean it again.

Huan.

You...

Mr. Xin, I'm at work right now.

If you need anything,
please wait for me downstairs. Thanks.

Hello, sir.

I'll transfer 10,000 yuan to you.
Don't make it difficult for her.

You're insulting me with money.

Sorry, Mr. Wang.

Xin Jialiang, stop causing trouble
and leave right now.

20,000 yuan, and let me be alone
with her for a while.

- Xin Jialiang.
- Deal.

Thank you.

I didn't interrupt your work.

I had a deal with him.

I suggest you get back the money
you shouldn't have spent.

Of course, if you want to be the fool,

I have no objections.

Since you say so,
I will go and take it back later.

I cannot be a fool.

Mr. Xin, what brings you
to see me today?

Huan, I'm here to apologize.

My dad scolded me and my sister
at the hospital.

I think I deserved it.

I've thought a lot about it recently.

I promise if you want respect,
I'll give you respect.

If you need support,
I'll give you support.

I will do whatever you say.

I'll definitely cherish you. Can you...?

Xin Jialiang, we have already broken up.

You bear no relation to me,
so you don't need to apologize to me.

Yueda has fallen out with Deshan.

We've found another hotel
to partner with.

They need a liaison with the management,
so I recommended you.

(Lairui Hotel Group job offer)
The monthly salary is 30,000 yuan.

(for Mai Chenghuan)
Can you consider it?

Xin Jialiang keeps showing up.

What's he doing? Begging
to get back together shamelessly?

Aren't you afraid that Mai Chenghuan
will make the wrong choice again?

Isn't this the time for you
to show up like a hero

to save her from a desperate situation?
What are you waiting for?

After all this time,
you still don't understand her?

She looks soft,
but she is indeed strong willed.

She seems easy to sway,
but she's very assertive.

She won't turn back.

Indeed, my family has recently
encountered some difficulties.

This job is more tempting
than ever before.

It seems
I've finally done the right thing.

But I am no longer who I used to be.

Rather than working in a fancy office
as a well-connected girl,

I'd rather earn money diligently
on my own.

Jialiang, whether you

offer me this job

because of your dad's recognition to me

or your own guilt,

I will refuse it,
and I don't need it at all.

We have already broken up.
Don't come to see me again.

Boss, do you know if I like spicy
or sweet sauce

when I eat hot pots?

Why do I care?

Why? I don't even like hot pots.
Flavors don't matter to me.

I've been working for you for years,
but you still don't know that?

You have known Mai Chenghuan
just for a few months.

So, you think you know her pretty well?

I mean, what if Mai Chenghuan
really needs help?

As her brother,
you're just going to stand by and watch?

Shut up. After the meeting,
take me to the nursing home.

Feeling shy?
Will you ask your grandma for help?

Why are you so talkative?

Can the price be any lower?

It's already very cheap.
Sherry has told me.

Rest assured,
we are giving you the lowest prices.

I know, but...

Are you injured?

I'm fine. Is your car okay?

It's okay, as long as you're fine.

Thanks.

Why are you so late?

Madam, sorry about that.
I just had a little accident.

I was delayed for a few minutes.
Please don't give me a bad review.

Look, it's spilled.

Sorry, I didn't see it just now.

How about I pay you for compensation?

All right, just leave it at that.

Thank you, and sorry about that.

Huan, how come you're back so early?

Huan, you're frowning so deeply.

Don't fret.

I've taken on a big deal that will
be closed by the end of the month.

I will earn at least 10,000 yuan.

We can work together
to overcome any hurdles.

Well, I...

Huan, I...

When our house was flooded,
I took leave to go back.

But Luo Mingli deliberately hassled me.

I thought it pointless
to keep working under him.

So I resigned.

Huan, I'm already looking for a new job.

Delivering takeout is just a stopgap.
Don't worry about me.

After suffering so much injustice,
why didn't you tell me?

It's no big deal.

In the workplace,

newcomers are easy to be
taken advantage of.

I have experienced the trials
in the workplace.

Tell me.
How many orders have you finished today?

Not many orders.

Don't lie to me. I've checked online.

If you want to get the champion helmet,
you have to keep working without breaks.

Wow, you're quite professional.
You even know this.

Stop fooling me.

It hurts?
You must tell me when you're in trouble.

What did you say before?

You said if you were in trouble,
you'd surely tell me.

Why didn't you tell me?

Actually, it is no big deal.

I have the internship experience
at Fangyuan Law Firm.

It's better than having nothing.

Huan, don't take all the responsibility
on yourself.

Can I help you share some of the burden?

I'm a son of the Mai family, right?

If you keep doing this, I'll lose face.

I feel very insignificant.

Zao, I don't do as well as you.

You do far better than me.

Huan, what's wrong?

Nothing.

I finished 90 orders today
and 101 orders yesterday.

I'll be honest with you,
and you don't keep things from me.

Xin Jialiang saw me today.

He recommended a job for me.

If I compromised and accepted it,

I wouldn't have to
deal with tough clients anymore

or be obedient to them.

And I don't have to care about
the bonus of 2,000 yuan per month.

It feels like all problems
can be solved.

But you didn't accept it, did you?

I know our family is having a hard time.

You've worked so hard,

but I've been caring about my dignity.

I feel like I'm just being pretentious.

Can my dignity earn me bread and butter?
No, it can't.

Huan, I would have criticized you
if you had accepted it.

It's like a carrot-and-stick approach.

It doesn't hurt much
but it's extremely insulting.

Our family is not wealthy.

But we don't have to compromise.

And if you get used to it over time
and lose your pride,

perhaps in the future,
you may not even dare to speak up.

You have grown up,
knowing how to comfort me.

I should be the one taking care of you.

As your older sister, I didn't do well.

Huan, just say whether I'm right or not.

Yeah, you're right, typical of a lawyer.

You make me feel relieved
and free of any guilt.

No worries.
Our family has mom's cooking skills,

dad's driving skills,
my strength and sharp tongue,

and your unyielding spirit.

There are no difficulties
we can't overcome.

I've made up my mind.
Let's work hard together.

Let's renovate this old house first.

We'll buy a new house together
for Mom and Dad.

I'll make a down payment.

I'll pay the mortgage every month.

It sounds like we're already rich.

We definitely will be.

Right, don't tell Mom and Dad

about my delivery job
and getting injured.

Don't worry. I'm not foolish.

Apply this. Does it still hurt?

No. I feel better.

Grandma, have a taste.

A meat mooncake equals
four bowls of rice in calories.

I can't eat it.

I queued for over an hour
to buy it at a time-honored store.

I didn't expect you wouldn't like it.

You've been toiling in the mountains
for so long.

You should take good care of yourself
and drink water. Don't worry about me.

I wanted to keep you company.

Don't hide anything.
Just tell me what's on your mind.

Grandma, you're really smart.

I might not finish the task
you assigned me.

Tell me why.

Mai Chenghuan's house was flooded
because of a burst water pipe.

She's having a hard time.

Grandma, could you lend a hand?

How come she didn't tell me about it?

Chenghuan, do you need my help
with the things at home?

She told me nothing about it.

Wait, you live so close to her.

Why did you come here
and ask me to help her?

She is independent of outsiders.

So I think she might rely on people
who are close to her.

She rejected you?

No, but I knew that if I lent a hand,
she would reject me.

That's why I came to you for help.

Thank you, Grandma,
everything has been fixed.

No need to worry.

See, I knew she would say that.

Chenghuan has a strong personality.

Rest assured, she can handle it herself.

The fact that you came
to me is already a big improvement.

It seems you had a pleasant trip
with her.

I...

After all, she is related to my task
and your assessment target for me.

And it's concerning the evaluation of me
and my future arrangements.

Then you'll have to work hard.

Of course, I will.

Come on. Let's eat together.

Let's have something low in calories.

This one.

Great.

Boss, you've been fishing for so long,
but you haven't caught one.

Are you preoccupied with something?
Thinking about Chenghuan?

Grandma said that she could handle it.

If she didn't ask for help,
she wouldn't need it.

Chenghuan might not need help,
but we do.

Get to the point.

We're still missing something.

Grandma has her own thoughts
and plans about the Xing'anli.

No offense, but you,
as a biological grandson,

won't gain any benefits
from your grandma.

You might as well ally
with Chenghuan, her granddaughter.

Let her take the lead.

At worst,
you can give her a bit more of a bonus.

Let me remind you.
Grandma and you are related in blood,

but it means nothing
if you're not around her.

It can't
compare to long-term companionship.

Now is not the right time.

Why?

You care about quality, quantity,
efficiency, and economic effects.

That's your style of handling things.

Why have you become so indecisive now?

Something happened in Chenghuan's home,
and she's in a complete mess right now.

I'm kindly reminding you.

You returned from abroad to catch fish.

Don't end up being the one
who is caught.

It will be a waste of bait.

What's wrong with you? Why didn't you
text me back or answer my calls?

How's your chat
with Mai Chenghuan going?

What do you think?

You've grown so tall,

but why are you of no use at all?

Don't you know what you have done?

If you fail, try it again.

If we can't fix this problem,
we'll lose our family.

Why does our dad love you, Xin Jialiang?

Is it because you're good at your job?

Is it because you're smart or obedient?

You can't even figure it out, can you?

Let me tell you. That's because you're
the only son in our family.

If our dad has another son,

you will be not that important.

Dad won't give up on our family.

Forget it. Just hurry up
and contact Mai Chenghuan.

Come on. Here's my phone.

If you don't feel shame,
you contact her yourself.

Fine, I'll do it.

Yu, it's almost midnight.
Are you not sleeping?

You make the tea eggs tomorrow.

I can't sleep anyway.
I've been losing sleep.

What's wrong?

I've been thinking a lot lately.

Do you think it's just over
between Huan and Jialiang?

They haven't been
in contact for a long time.

It's quite a pity.

Since they've already broken up.
Let's not talk about it anymore.

Jialiang has his issues.

He doesn't show the slightest sense
of responsibility as a man.

I think he's not good enough for Huan.

I don't think so.

Jialiang is nice to Huan.

Besides, it's not easy
for Huan to find someone

like Jialiang who she knows so well.

Even though his family asked Huan
to sign a prenuptial agreement,

as long as Huan
doesn't divorce Jialiang,

Huan still can live a good life.

That's not right.

It's not a matter of divorce.

I can't explain it clearly to you.
I'm going to sleep.

You go to bed early.

(Xin Jialiang)
(Mrs. Mai, sorry for disturbing you so late.)

(My mom and sister were
out of line that day.)

(They know they were wrong
and asked me to apologize to you.)

(I've been in a lot of pain recently.)

(I love Chenghuan deeply
and can't be without her.)

(I hope you can give me another chance.)

(Mrs. Mai, I've discussed it
with my family.)

(The house is ready.)

(Tomorrow at 3 PM,
I'll take you to see it.)

(See the house? Should I go with Huan?)

Yeah, Room 1301.

Jialiang, where are you?

How come I don't see you? Jialiang.

Mrs. Mai, you're here.

Why is it you?
You're having Jialiang's phone?

Recently, Jialiang has been concerning
about Chenghuan.

He wanted to talk to you.

Unfortunately, he went out
and got a cold.

For fear of infecting you,

he had to ask me to see you.

I have nothing to talk to you.

Mrs. Mai, take a look at this house.

Look at the environment and the light.
Isn't it good?

It's suitable for a family to live in.

Whose family?

Of course, our family.

I was sorry about what happened
during our last meal.

Chenghuan is a good girl and
in a good relationship with Jialiang.

My family hopes they can be together.

Mrs. Mai, what do you think?

As far as I know, they have broken up.

Mrs. Mai, I'm sorry about what I did.

Could you please
give Jialiang one more chance?

I'm afraid my daughter is so assertive

that she won't listen to me.

I understand. Girls need
to feel secure, right?

How about this?

(Considering the years of relationship
between Jialiang and Huan,)

(I'll give it a try.)

Get up.

What are you doing?
Didn't you see I was sleeping?

Why are you sleeping in broad daylight?

Get up quickly. You're getting married.

With whom?

With your beloved Mai Chenghuan.

Okay, get out. Stop bothering me.

I've swallowed my pride

and tried so hard
to persuade her mom to help.

What have you done again?

Can you please stop making trouble?
I'm begging you.

Besides, I want to marry Huan,

not her mom.

Why do you keep bothering her mom?

Have you lost your mind?

If we win over Mai Chenghuan,
we will win over our dad.

And if we win over her mom,
we will win over Mai Chenghuan.

I'm telling you.
Her mom has promised me.

If Chenghuan has no problems,
you will be her groom-to-be.

I'm begging you. I mean it.

Can you please leave us alone?

You think I'm happy to step in?

I've lost face, said many sweet words,

and given away the house.

Finally, I've gained the favor
of Mai Chenghuan and her mom.

You decide whether
to get married or not.

I don't care.

Don't get too agitated.

I definitely want to get married.

But I just had a fight with Huan.

Isn't it awkward
to suddenly have an engagement?

Can you leave the matter to us, alright?

Please don't interfere anymore.

Give us more time

to get along well, okay?

Are you a fool? I'm so pissed off.

Calm down.

Let me explain why I'm in such a hurry.

I'm looking forward to seeing you
and Chenghuan have a child.

People say the eldest grandson
and the youngest son

are the apple of the Grandpa's eye.

If you had a son,
our dad could favor you

over an illegitimate child.

What does it have to do
with me getting married?

When will you get a bit smarter?

Let me tell you.
Opportunity knocks but once.

What are you talking about?

Mom, come out and eat.

Coming.

You should eat more. Eat this egg.

Eat up the egg.

You're dressed so formally.
Where are you going?

The dance team has arranged a new show.

Everyone has to wear a cheongsam
for today's performance.

I'll watch it later.

Okay.

I'm off to work, mom. You eat more.

- Are you full?
- Sure.

Be careful on the road.

Hello? Have you arrived?

Okay, I'll come to pick you up.
I gotta go.

I've finalized the time with Mr. Wang.

I'll notify her

to set time aside for you.

And one more thing.
Ms. Zhang has started to rush us again.

So, we have to hurry up
with the Xing'anli.

Careful. Don't hit your head.

Don't touch it, or it will stop.

Kids are careful.
Don't bump into things.

It's so grand.

This location is good. It is
by Suzhou River and next to the Bund.

I'll take you guys upstairs
to the main hall.

- It's very nice.
- It's great.

This hall is where wedding ceremonies
are held.

Look at that big screen up there,
like a movie screen.

- Yeah.
- Sir, hurry up.

You're off duty?

See you tomorrow, Chenghuan.

See you tomorrow.

Mom, what's up?

Huan, we'll eat together.

What? Why are we
suddenly eating together?

Your aunts and uncles have come
to Shanghai.

I want to do the honors.

They have come?
Okay, where are we eating?

Right at the B-Botticelli.

Botticelli? Why are we eating here?

They're from out of town
and haven't been to your workplace.

Let them enjoy a meal there.

Mom, you're just too concerned
about keeping up appearances.

They're our family.
We should treat them.

You come down.
We're waiting for you. Come on.

All right, I'll be there later.

- ♪Are you nearly home♪

- ♪My memories became so intense♪
- ♪The door is open♪

♪Through the gentle times♪

♪Wherever you are is my home♪

♪Come back home♪

♪My sweetie♪

♪Please believe in yourself♪
