Let me show you something
Look, I bought this costume for my collection
It looks good
And this one!
Do I look good in this?
Very!
How about this one? Good?
Perfect!
Just one problem your pot belly!
I'll go swimming with you
Let's exercise together! How dare you
What are you wearing?
I knitted it myself
Don't stare, I have arthritis
Isn't it stylish? Yes...
I'm swimming!
I'm taking the plunge!
Mr. Pan!
Pan!
It's alright, I can swim
Are you alright?
Thank you for saving me
Ma'am, what's wrong with you?
You're swimming during your period?
Mrs. Ye, Mrs. Ye!
You're out here!
Your cousin isn't in?
You have too much on your mind
That 'cousin' of yours isn't really a cousin, is he?
See, you're blushing!
You can't fool me
Of course he's my cousin!
All this pretense!
I know what's really going on
Even Feifei sees through you!
Don't insult me
Mrs. Ye, you're a deep one!
You present such a virtuous and upright face
But behind it...
Crazy!
Why do you show up again?
I went to your home
You were not there
Don't come to my place everyday! Okay?
We are old now. People will laugh at us
Why do you discriminate elders as well?
Elders can also have freedom of love
What freedom?
You eat half a kilogram of ribs a meal, I can't afford this
I'll take you somewhere
Where? I don't want to go!
Stop pulling me, will you? Come on
Hurry up
Where is it?
No more questions
Where are you taking me?
No more questions
What are you thinking?
Bringing me to a cemetery!
Look around
Mr. Pan, do you want to die with me?
And be buried in the same plot?
I want to make money with you!
A while ago when I buried my mother...
...I discovered a way to make money
Chinese people are fussy about their burials
Everyone dies sooner or later
But there are more people than burial plots
Burial plots are like houses
There are never enough
Besides, houses can be inherited
But burial plots can't
You have to be rich to buy houses
But burial plots are relatively cheap
And we can afford them
I checked a single plot is 6,000 RMB
A double plot is 10,000 RMB
Burial plot investments!
I see!
It's like futures!
You're so clever!
Oh, Pan... Do you get it?
We buy some vacant plots
And then sell them at a profit!
Cemeteries are the coming thing!
Please keep this confidential
Pan, I'll tell you what this old head thinks
He who helps make money shows the greatest love of all!
Here you are!
Let's go
Come on, jump over!
Jump, me?
Aren't you afraid the plots will be sold out?
There are so many rich people these days
So what if there are?
They don't all have my IQ!
Come!
Our cemetery enjoys tremendous geographical advantages
It is flanked by mountains and rivers
The plots are arranged on several levels
Offering both Chinese and Western architectural styles
Our plots make wonderful investments
Pan, congratulations!
In my old age, I'm finally lucky!
From now on, I won't baulk at the cost of spare ribs
I'll buy them by the dozen!
Great!
I have a theory...
There are two kinds of women the beauteous and the beautiful
You know why?
The beauties are attracted to strong men
You know the 'hero and beauty' syndrome
They like the brawny type
Hence Concubine Yu falls for Xiang Yu
But beauteous women are different
They prefer men with good brains
The 'handsome scholar and beauteous lady' syndrome
They like the talented well-educated type
You are a beauteous lady!
Really?
(The lady is sixteen)
(She is lowly and poor)
(A green window, a silent spring)
(All her beauty goes to waste)
Superb!
Oh! Why didn't you close the door?
The neighbors can hear us
Heavens, when did the cat come in?
I don't know
Feifei!
Mrs. Ye
Hide in there!
Keep the cat quiet OK
Don't make a sound!
I'm coming!
Feifei!
Mrs. Ye...
Have you seen my Feifei?
Have you seen her?
No
Feifei!
My Feifei has gone!
I have a feeling...
...something horrid has happened to her
Mrs. Ye, what can I do?
She's gone!
What's wrong?
Feifei!
Don't act like that
Stand up
Buy her another cat tomorrow!
Get up!
Then I'll go
Hello? Hello?
Is that Pan?
Speaking... Why aren't you asleep?
I want to give my burial plot...
...to Feifei
The cat
Tell me, do you think Mrs. Shui...
...will ever forgive me?
I've no idea
It depends on you
Rest now we'll talk about it tomorrow
If the plot is reassigned...
...the owner's name will have to be changed
There'll be a procedure for that
But how can it be reassigned to a cat?
Hello...
Is this the cemetery office?
They're moved
Where have they gone?
No idea
We did work with that company
But the contract expired six months ago
Anyway, the plot you paid for...
...has been occupied for two months
See for yourself
The wife died but the husband is still alive
I've bought it with my real money!
You probably have
Mrs. Ye...
I never expected this
I went to the cemetery office too
No-one there
I called the police
Pan Zhichang, tell me the truth
Did you cheat me?
I won't take it any further...
...as long as you tell me the truth
I bought one too, Mrs. Ye!
How can you doubt me?
I'm not that bad
Then how come that office vanished overnight?
You must be involved
It's too much of a coincidence
I have nothing to explain! I'm honest...
I hope you didn't cheat me
I'm old
If I were 17 and you cheated me...
...at least I could earn the money back
But now you're killing me
You know that?
All of my savings...
Everything has gone
Are you still here?
Go away
I don't want to see you again
Go away
I should stay with you
I don't need you to do that
Go on, get lost!
Go on!
It's morning... Take care now
I'll get lost
Yes?
Is Mrs. Shui there?
I want to talk to her
She had a heart attack this morning
She died before we could get her to hospital
Are you Mrs. Ye?
Yes
Who are you?
Jin Yonghua's husband
She's been arrested and put in jail
Can you help us?
Ma'am...
Hold her down!
Lie down!
You mustn't move
Why are you putting a watch on my wrist?
Let go! Lie down!
Show me some respect...
Are you feeling better now?
We gave you some morphine yesterday...
...and it gave you hallucinations
You gripped me so tightly
You must ask your family to come
Is there someone who can take care of you?
Hey... I'm looking for...
...Ye Rutang's ward
No visitors allowed today
I'm her daughter I'm here to look after her
You're from Los Angeles?
What?
We've come from Anshan
What took you so long?
What? Has that made her worse?
If we weren't here you wouldn't treat her?
Room 302
Should've told me sooner
Put it down there
Ye Rutang... I'm your daughter Liu Dafan
We haven't seen each other in more than ten years
You look so old
If we'd bumped into each other on the street...
...I guess we wouldn't have known each other
Ain't that right?
This is my boyfriend, Guo Feng
First, give me the key to your place
We need to settle in
Come on, what's the delay?
What?
Don't act like a dame!
Get a move on!
I'm dead
I'm dead, No kidding
Who's kidding?
You ain't kidding?
Look!
Which?
Go on!
Let's go!
What's the matter?
What's up?
What's the matter with you?
I wet the bed
What kind
of a daughter are you?
Your mother is badly injured
And you don't even care
Do you even have a heart?
What are you doing?
Don't lecture me!
She's never gonna order me around again!
Great shoes you have!
Where'd you get them?
Huaihai Road
I must check out Huaihai Road!
Really?
I'd like to eat crab!
I've had it with you!
They called me unfilial...
...but are you a good mother?
Did you ever do right by me?
Why did you ever marry Dad an ordinary worker...
...and give birth to me?
You stayed with us when you needed our help
But as soon as you could move back to Shanghai...
...you got divorced, just like that
Shanghai means more to you than Dad and I do!
Now that you're old you remember me
Listen, I've done you a big favor by coming here
I still remember clearly...
...how you looked when you left us
Not so much as a flicker of regret
You left as if you were going on a date
You didn't even look back
I could always imagine how you looked when you got back here
Proud about your new life right?
No more troubles, right?
Be satisfied!
Bad men! Bad men!
So rough! OK...
Such behavior!
They're bad men! Grandma,
They're not bad men
They will take us to Xinjiang
To see Mother and Father
True!
Let her go
Sorry, sorry
If I'd known that
We're off to see your Father and mother
I'd have bought them some rice dumplings
Yes, dumplings
Is the door locked?
Yes
Is the gas turned off?
Yes
Yes, dumplings
Feifei, Kuankuan asked me to give you this CD
But I forgot
I'm old
I forget things
When will Kuankuan visit again?
Can't really say
I'm going back to Manchuria
I can't survive in Shanghai
I'm working now, in a laundry
I've sent my grandma to a home
I wanted to give her these birds
Pretty, aren't they?
Hey, Kuankuan!
You're here at last
Let me
Hi, auntie
Hey, Kuankuan...
You're getting a mustache and your voice is deeper!
Here, let me help you
I'm a cripple now
No-one would notice
Anyhow, it's a new experience
We live just around that corner
Can you make it there?
This is it... Fourth floor
Help yourself
How do you like our dishes?
They're okay
When will you leave for Australia
After Spring Festival
Can your mother send me abroad too?
I'd like to travel
Why not?
Really?
I'd pay my own expenses
Take a hike What now?
I always said I'd do great things or I'd do nothing
Great things? Get lost!
Believe it or not...
I will take you abroad one day...
You've been saying that
for about a hundred years! Why am I still here?
I was an idiot to choose you
All you do is brag!
Brag?
Didn't I get you that job?
As a cook at Kaiyue Hotel?
Give me a break!
How many years have I been cooking?
Am I supposed to cook my whole life away?
What's wrong with that
You trained to be a cook!
Don't get fancy ideas
Get lost, I'm through with you
Get lost!
And don't come back!
Who are you?
What can you do without me?
Liu Dafan...
Give me back my platinum necklace
You brat, get out!
The orders are in!
Get back to work!
Hurry up!
Where's the plate?
You can't sleep?
Why not?
There's someone I like
She doesn't know
But I know she doesn't like me
Why not?
Because I'm a cripple
Kuankuan, I can't see you off this time
Your cousin will bring you to the railway station
Your uncle and I have to set up our stall
Study hard while you're abroad
Okay
How much are these shoes?
60 RMB, take it or leave it
Is it real leather?
If not, I'll eat them
I'll get some more hot water
You're early
Yeah! Fetching water?
