(Qingyixuan Antiques Store)
You don't want to do business with us, do you?
Do you know you're embezzling assets?
It's hard for me too.
It's... I've been scolding him for one morning.
Who did you sell to? Go and get it back.
The main problem is that I don't know who I sold it to.
He's not a regular customer.
How about the CCTV?
It's already broken, merely for display purposes.
Not me.
Yeah, right.
No, it's really...
It has nothing to do with me. Isn't that right, boss?
I'm...
Boss.
Get your staff to check it out.
You have to get it back.
You are truly black-hearted.
Just 100,000 yuan. You're...
-I sold it. -You're really...
I don't want to comment on you.
Where is the Chenpi water that I asked you to soak up for me?
I beg your pardon.
What's wrong with you?
Chenpi...
You're so distracted.
Xin Zheng,
our son's pendant
is really gone this time.
It's gone this time?
How about the previous times?
Well...
I don't know.
Where is your agarwood pendant?
Where did you go yesterday?
I don't know.
Don't you know where you've been?
I'm talking to you.
Ren Tian Zhen.
You are almost 28 years old.
When will you be able to live like a human being?
Do you know how precious that pendant means to you?
That's the expectation of our several generations of family for you!
Xin Zheng.
-Mum. -Can't you talk nicely?
Explain to your grandma!
This is not the first time, right?
Where did you go yesterday?
Be honest!
Xin Zheng.
Be patient when you're educating your son.
Give him some time to grow.
Everyone's point of enlightenment
is different.
There are not many wunderkinder like you
who have been persistent in their ambition.
I'd rather Tian Zhen
be warming the bench for ten years.
In the end, he will be a late bloomer.
Master,
can I beg you for one thing?
When I teach my son, please don't protect him.
I don't expect him
to be a late bloomer anymore.
I'm afraid he's useless.
He is my only son.
I hope you'll be honest with your parents.
To be an honest man!
Your dad is right.
Tell the truth
and admit your mistake.
From now on, you won't leave anything behind.
Mum, it's not a matter of leaving things behind.
You say that you lecture your child,
but you don't even know how old I am.
I'm 25 years old this year,
I'm not 28 years old.
You either ignore me or lecture me.
There is no place for me in your lofty ideals
of teaching, nurturing people,
and carrying on the tradition.
What's up?
I took his pendant.
What are you doing with his pendant?
I took it to the pawn shop and sold it.
I need money recently.
What do you do with the money?
When I worked as a delivery rider, I was
playing poker with them.
And then
I owed them a lot of money.
I thought that pendant
was worth a lot of money.
Therefore, I
took it.
Master, I've been evil again.
I'm sorry.
Why don't you punish me?
I'll find a way to redeem that pendant by then, can I?
What a reckless act!
Get out and get into a horse stance!
You scared me out of my wits!
Take this to Tou Tou.
No one can squat like this for a day.
No need, Sun Tou Tou is very tricky.
It's true if you say she would play tricks back in the day.
But now,
she can really squat like this for a day.
Give it to her.
She won't take it if I'm the one who gives her.
What are you doing?
You can sit for a while if you are tired.
I'll cover for you.
I'm not tired at all.
Hurry up and stay aside.
Can you?
I can do it.
Do you think you're Wonder Woman?
If you keep squatting like this, your thighs can't take it.
Don't be stubborn. Can't I try it?
Go aside.
I'm with you.
Are you an idiot?
If your dad sees it, he will know I'm taking the fall for you.
Then my drama just now will be wasted.
Can you get in?
Do you think my dad doesn't know?
You can assume I'm practicing next to you.
I won't let you practice alone.
If I practiced well, it's good to improve the skill of observing.
Tou Tou
is getting calmer.
She has squatted for so long without rest.
It's a bit sunny.
I'm afraid
she will be dehydrated later.
Tian Zhen is squatting together with her as well.
How heavy can you lift?
55 kilograms.
All right.
That's okay.
You go in and take some rest.
If I collapse later, you can carry me into the house.
I tell you to eat less before this.
What if I can't carry you later?
What does it have to do with how much I eat?
Just drag me like a dead dog.
I suppose you know how to drag me in, right?
Xin Zheng,
don't be angry.
Look at them.
Aren't they apologising to you in a different way?
You know where your son's pendant is,
don't you?
You and your son
have a tacit understanding.
Am I right?
He used to travel every year.
Since you nagged him,
and let him fend for himself,
don't spend our money,
since then, he started to leave things behind.
Is that my fault?
That's not what I meant.
But our son was right too.
You don't even know how old he is.
You only know how to scold him.
Let me tell you,
a good child grows with praises.
Did I scold him wrongly?
He spends money like water.
He did not even know how hard his parents earn money.
He didn't do anything bad.
He just went on a trip, didn't he?
To read great books and do great travels.
Both knowledge and conduct must be unified.
I can tell.
The older and younger members of the family
are all covering up and condoning him.
You should say that
to the elders
in person.
But then again,
you said that
our son didn't tell the truth.
You should seriously
reflect on yourself too.
You always say,
"Turn inward and examine yourself when you encounter difficulties in life."
Our son was just
going on a trip,
wasn't he?
When he travelled,
you called him a dude
who's not aware of the hardships.
You can't just let him run off to work in the field
whenever he's free like you did when you were a kid.
Moreover, we don't have any field at home, do we?
It's not like you don't know how dignified your son is.
You always scold him,
will he dare to tell you the truth in the future?
It means it is my fault again.
It's not like that.
It's my fault.
How can you both be at fault?
I think I should squat there.
Mr Ren.
Professor Ren.
Don't be angry after you've had my cup of apologetic tea,
I'll go and get them back.
I get you some water.
Tou Tou!
Tou Tou has fainted.
I'm okay.
You're too weak.
You prescribe two medications for her.
Let us recuperate her spleen and stomach first.
After that, let her drink aconite decoction.
Her body is too cold.
Stop drinking ice water.
Get her a thermos.
Well...
Niece-in-law,
I don't want a pink-coloured Old Man Cup.
I don't want pink colour, is it okay?
I don't want yellow either.
Is it okay?
I don't want the cup with a picture, is it okay?
Why did you take on the blame for me?
I'm envious of you.
I don't envy you for having everything you want.
Well,
every quarrel happened at home
is because of you.
Without you in the future,
these elders must be bored every day.
You're mindless.
You're not answering my question.
Your dad is so angry with you because of a small mistake you made.
But when I made a big mistake,
your dad can forgive me.
Do you know why?
It's because you are his senior aunt.
It's because your dad loves you.
It's because that's your dad.
He loves you.
He has hope for you.
He won't care too much
whether I'm good or bad.
All he has done for me is to fulfill his duty.
Well, it has nothing to do with you taking the punishment for me.
Oh, my grandson,
I'm an orphan.
No one puts hope in me.
But you are different.
You are the hope of your family.
And
I don't want to disappoint my master.
So you have to work hard,
do you understand?
I have high hopes for you.
Do you get me?
But then again,
you are right too.
It's because I like to do the things
that you're doing too.
If I have money,
I will do the same.
But your dad is right too.
So you both are right.
It's perfect for me to take the blame.
Hello.
Tian Zhen, Meng Meng is missing.
Where are you?
What exactly happened?
Why has she suddenly disappeared?
Meng Meng quarrelled with me.
Quarrel?
I invited my family to have a reunion meal today at noon.
When the guests arrived, Meng Meng refused to come out of her room,
not even saying hello.
I went in and nagged her.
You...
You have to understand that
Meng Meng is in the situation
that she can't directly confront strangers
or someone she is unfamiliar with.
They are our relatives
and watched her grow up.
They are not strangers.
I've been out on tour for a long time.
I tried to squeeze in some time
to celebrate a festival with her.
I thought it would cheer her up
if we had more people.
Who knows...
That's your thought only.
You don't know what Meng Meng wants, don't you?
We are human beings.
We are not puppets that swing at will.
It's not like we're willing to stay in whatever position you want to put us in.
Tian Zhen.
I'm sorry.
He doesn't know any better.
It's okay.
It's more important to look for Meng Meng now.
Yes.
(Fairy Baker)
Excuse me.
Have you seen this girl?
No.
Okay, thank you.
Uncle Zhang.
Did Meng Meng go to your place?
Aunt Zhang.
Did Meng Meng go to your place?
I didn't see her for more than two hours.
Could you help me look for her?
All right.
-Hello. -(Have you found Meng Meng?)
No, I didn't.
I searched everywhere I could.
(If we can't find her, then call the police.)
No, let's not panic.
After quarrelling, Meng Meng definitely will go to a place
where she feels secure.
So where makes her feel secure?
I know where she is.
How is it? Have you found her?
Have you found her?
No, Grandma.
Hasn't Tian Zhen come back yet?
-Not yet. -How is it?
Why did you come back alone? You didn't find her?
Have you found her?
Keep your voice down.
Meng Meng.
Are you in there?
Come out here, everything is fine.
Everything is fine.
Do you remember that she hid there on the first day she came?
Well, I'm going to call her parents.
Everything is fine.
It's okay, Meng Meng.
After you make a call,
let's have a family meeting.
Tou Tou.
You bring Meng Meng go into the room.
Don't come out.
Won't I be at the family meeting?
Mum, Meng Meng and Tou Tou are our family members too.
Let's have a meeting together.
Not allowed!
When I'm talking about family meetings,
I mean people who are blood-related to us.
Ling Lan,
I know what you're thinking.
What are you going to do?
Xin Zheng,
send Xu Meng away tomorrow.
We can't have so many girls in our family.
Why?
She has parents,
but she's fostered in our home.
This thing would have been weird.
What if
something goes wrong,
what should we do?
We are lucky today.
She ran away from her home.
What if she runs away from our home one day?
How do we explain this to her parents?
She came back on the first day she lived in her house.
You're pushing her into the fire pit
if you send her back now.
She won't run away if she stays at our house.
Everyone has their destiny.
Her family relationships are something she has to deal with on her own.
We can't involve in it.
I disagree.
Meng Meng is my patient.
I have to be responsible for her to the end.
I won't stop you from being responsible for her.
But Meng Meng doesn't have to stay at our home
for you to heal her.
She has her own home.
Then I will rent a house and stay together with Meng Meng.
How dare you!
You're out of discipline.
And now, Meng Meng's mentality
is unstable
and very immature.
She needs a guardian to accompany her.
Are you her guardian?
Can you take that responsibility?
I'm not discussing this with you all today.
I'm telling you all my decision.
Then, I will tell you my decision too.
If you send her away,
I will go with her.
What am I going to say?
Nice drawing.
How uncomfortable when it's pressing against your hand.
Meng Meng, don't be afraid.
I won't hurt you.
Meng Meng, I won't do that.
You were hiding in the dark under the staircase. Were you frightened?
Don't be afraid.
I'm here.
I will protect you from now on.
Meng Meng.
You're not frightened of me, are you?
Well...
Then you draw first.
Meng Meng.
I sit here.
Don't be afraid.
I'm here to watch you draw.
I'll be with you.
You may draw it.
That's our son,
why are you angry?
Do I owe you two in my past life?
Why are you torturing me like this in this life?
None of the elders or the young are obedient.
Why are you involving me again?
Can't you see
I scold our son every day?
But today I can tell
this kid
can become a great doctor.
Are you happy seeing him go against me, aren't you?
Narrow-minded.
I don't believe it.
I have been spoiling him for over 20 years.
I'm going to against him this time.
Does he dare to disown me as his mother?
I'll stay out of
this motherly business.
But I would like to remind you.
A mother fighting with her son...
I won't say anymore.
It's pointless
raising a son.
Look at you.
Keep your mouth shut.
Is this a new foot cloth?
(Qibo Medical Centre)
Tou Tou!
Have the new cups not been sterilized yet?
Ms Song said it's for you to use today.
I don't use an Old Man Cup.
No need to sterilize it for me.
Why were you shouting?
How's your foot?
It's much better.
Do you need my wife to check for you again?
No need. Tian Zhen already gave me the medicinal wine.
Well,
this time you stumbled into the ravine,
but no one helped you.
What do you think of this phenomenon?
Do we have a trend of snitching here?
Nobody snitches on you.
Actually, everything we do,
God has the ledgers.
Mr Ren,
if you have anything to say, just say it.
Look at Sun Tou Tou.
Although she has left our apprentice class,
there are still many students
who wish to bear responsibility for her.
When you stumbled into the ravine,
only Sun Tou Tou
took the initiative to help you.
Other students
didn't dare to touch you.
Maybe Sun Tou Tou doesn't read as many books as you do,
but she makes friends.
What do you think of this phenomenon?
I think
if a person isn't educated
and doesn't have any professional skills,
he must only be able to get a foothold in the society
by making connections with people.
In fact, it's the same for us lawyers.
Some people just get acquainted.
But some people
are extremely good at their job.
I'm a technical person.
Some are theoretical
whereas some are practical.
Tou Tou is probably not
as knowledgeable as you.
But she likes to take practical ​action.
Perhaps her sensibility
will exceed you.
Look at the first sentence of Heart Sutra,
Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva
meditated deeply.
It's not talking about depth.
But it refers to meditating deeply.
Hence, don't look down on the sweeping monk.
Maybe she'll run ahead of you.
Therefore, you'd rather take her as a disciple
and rejected me, right?
That's why you're waiting for her to achieve her goal,
then you can get credit too.
It's possible.
Confucius says,
"Those who are born with understanding are the best."
"Those who learn
to understand
are the second best."
Tou Tou is much easier to teach
compare to someone as knowledgeable as you.
Mr Ren,
I have a question.
Do you think
it can be believed that
Sun Si Miao lived to be 140 years old?
You're here to learn about life.
Is this the purpose you learn about life?
You're here to learn
about life, aren't you?
The average life expectancy of my family is about 40 years.
I'm now
not far from that time.
That's why you're afraid to have a relationship
and get married.
I don't dare to have a child.
I'm scared
I'll leave him
all alone
when I'm gone.
Do you feel lonely?
Well, recently
I have a new understanding of longevity.
Longevity
is not how long
we actually live.
Let's say you live for a hundred years
and you start to get sick
when you are 60 years old,
that's not longevity,
but it's a long pain.
If we can live to a hundred years in good health
this is a good thing.
What if we can't live to be a hundred?
As you can see,
Zhang Zhong Jing
didn't live a long life.
He lived into his sixties.
But in my opinion,
he had longevity.
A man's longevity
doesn't depend on
the actual time he lives.
One's real longevity is about his mind and character.
Many people still remember him,
and commemorate him now,
it means he's not dead.
Yang, I don't think
you're alone.
Your family is watching you from heaven.
If they see you can't afford to let go of this,
they won't rest in peace.
If I were your mother,
seeing how tangled
your daily life is,
I wouldn't feel at ease.
Here's something for you.
Money box.
Why is this full?
Money box
will then be shattered once the money is stuffed.
This is the process of accumulation.
It's a
highly motivating
and exciting process.
But on the other hand,
if it's full,
it never escapes
from being shattered.
That's how life is.
You only focus to accumulate,
but you don't evacuate
and apply.
It's sure to be shattered.
There is an in and an out,
a Yin and a Yang, that's the way.
Hence, I'm giving it to you.
It's also an assignment for you.
This is all you've got in it.
You have to know
how to apply it.
If one day
you can take the initiative to help others,
I'll take out one yuan
from this money box.
When it's empty,
I will take you as my disciple.
-Jian Xi. -Ms Song.
Has your appetite improved recently?
Much better.
The medicine is quite good, isn't it?
That's great.
Then you'll have to continue taking the medication
we prescribed to you for some time.
Zhu Xia.
-Are you still looking for a tile? -Yes.
There's a lot of information out there, but it's unreliable.
We will soon be providing free consultations in the suburbs.
The possibility of obtaining
centuries-old tiles
in remote mountain areas is greater.
I'll keep an eye out for you then.
Okay, thank you, Ms Song.
You're welcome.
Get more exposure to the sunlight.
Let's go ahead.
Hello.
I'd like to rent a two-bedroom apartment.
Preferably with lift access and close to the metro.
Budget...
My budget is around 6,000 yuan.
The sooner, the better.
Yes, I am available to view houses after work on weekdays.
Okay.
Thank you.
Are you really going to move out with Meng Meng?
I am up against my mum this time.
That's not right.
You're against your mum because of Meng Meng.
Two years later, you don't even know where Meng Meng is.
You still have to pass on your family's legacy.
Are you going to leave your parents and grandparents behind?
It won't happen.
You haven't got a clue about my mum.
She will never fall out with me.
After a while,
this problem will be solved.
Have you fallen in love with Meng Meng?
What a load of nonsense.
