Episode 7
What's this?
Reporting, this soldier is affecting the moraleby spreading lies. ~I didn't lie.
I heard it myself
What did you hear?
I was delivering a dossier.
I heard two officers whisper in there...
that we won't be able to hold Changsha
We are ready to retreat
...and to burn all of Changsha, not leaving any bricks unburned
Officer, is this true?
You're talking nonsense
The Japanese soldier still 200 meters awayfrom here on Xin Jiang's river.
How possible to easily cross it.
Even if they invaded in,
We would fight until the end, burn what city?
I heard it very clearly
They said they already received the order
The last few days, the securities department has been preparing the materials to start fires.
Are you from Changsha?
Yes
My house only have a widowed mother.
Rely me who works on military to live.
If Changsha is really set on fire
then my mother cant even run
What will happen to her?
What'll happen...
Reporting to Commander, I'm also from Changsha
I'm from Changsha too
Officer, is burning the city really true
Officer, you can't let this happen
That's right, sir.
You can't watch them die, Sir.
What are you saying?
Everyone with a grim face
Are you men or not?
If there's an order from the top
It has to pass from the Staff Officer department
I didn't hear this news
You probably heard only bits and pieces of it
and started spreading lies to lower morale
Drag him out and lock him three days.
Yes, take him out
No way.. Sir.. No.. You can't lock me up..
Sir! My mother still on the city...Sir! You can't lock me up...Sir! You can't lock me up...
If this place does not want me, then there will be places elsewhere that does
And I was troubled that I have no money to buy a new pair of pants.
A pair of pants doesn't need this much
His gull is smaller than a needle point. All he have are small tricks.
No potential
Officer, that soldier just now talked logically
I don't think he made it up.
you know, I'm also from Changsha
I'm in the same boat as him
...my mother is a widow who remarried
my stepfather doesn't like me so I joined the army
even if he's not good, he still raised me
My mom gave birth to my two half siblings and they aren't even ten years old yet
If this is true...
...what will they do
Looks like it is true
they're really going to burn down Changsha
no wonder you're not going after Xue Junshan
Changsha's going to ruin
what is Xue Junshan
I told you to stop talking
Officer, I'm begging you
save my family...
save the citizens of Changsha...
don't' let them use fire to destroy our homes
I'm begging you
Get up first...get up
This situation must be kept secret
I'll think of a plan
Go to the planning department and ask for a name list of my division.
I need it right away -Yes
Guard at the door, if some one comes,
say I'm taking an important phone call
tell them to wait -Yes
Please connect me to Chongqing. The number is 5977
It's the first time you willingly called home
is there something you want to ask from me?
Can you meet the chairman?
What? Still want to go to the front lines
where you arenow is about to become the front line
I'm afraid before it becomes the front line
that I will have to burn it all down
You know too?
Chairman's Scorch the Earth policy
is to not leave anything for the Japanese
Father, Changsha has a thousand year history...
how can it just be burned down
This is military strategies
I can't do anything about this.
If you would just say the word
the Chairman won't not consider it.
What time is it now
he already thought it through
how to win this war
does not depend on the words of acquaintance or elders
Fine, let's just talk about the war
The Yellow River Flood Incident
was created just to prevent the Japanese from advancing
But what are the results?
How many people drowned? How many fields were destroyed?
And didn't the Japanese just advanced straightforward?
I have not studied military strategies nor do I want to discuss it with you.
I'll ask you, are you a soldier?
Of course I am
If you are a soldier then you should follow your orders
The orders were, Changsha must be burned
or do you want to disobey
if you can't do it then you shouldn't be in the army
Listen to me, come home
Granny! Mom!
Granny - Xiaoman, where did you go
The whole family was dying from worry
Whose clothes are you wearing?
Did you get accosted by robbers? Are you hurt?
If you have ambitions then don't come back.
making the whole family worry
Dad, listen to me (Mom) He's back, stop saying so much
You came home by yourself
Xiangxiang went looking for you
JUST LISTEN TO ME!
the government wants to set fire to Changsha
Nonsense...
Its true, the government will set fire to Changsha
Within the city, there are lots of people who haven't left
will they set fire without saying anything
What won't they do
Xiaoman, you're sure what you're saying is true?
Of course its true. Everything they said was about setting fire to Changsha
how can it be wrong
But brother-in-law is a government worker
if there was any news then brother-in-law would have heard
But Gu Qingming is someone with status
whatever news, he will probably get it sooner then the local government
I am so busy already, what is it?
Brother-in law are they really going to set fire to Changsha?
Who said?
So its true then
Its top secret, who said it
I heard Gu Qingming say it
The government really ordered something like this?
wasn't there anyone against it
Its Chiang Kai-Shek's order
He decided this himself
you tell him and see if he agrees or not
The chairman thinks of human lives as cheap as grass
How can he order something so preposterous.
What are you yelling about.
You two listen up
you must not tell anyone about this
Letting him set fire, then can't we least be able to talk about it?
Its top secret
Exposing secrets means we will all lose our heads
they are children, you're a child too?
Alright, alright...
we all know
Where the heck did you go?
if i wasn't busy today, I would beat you
Where's your sister?
She's feeding Pingan upstairs, I'll call her down.

What I say today
from my mouth, into your ears
no one can repeat it
Orders from above, when the Japanese army overcomes the city,
Will be when we will abandon the city.
Burning the city is to counter the invasion,
applying the Scorch the Earth policy. We have the lesson from what happened at Wuhan
Goods transported to Changsha is piled up like mountains
If we can not transport it all away, then at least we can't leave it to the Japs.
Everyone write down your addresses into this book
The military will immediately send people to arrange for your families' escape.
but there's one condition
from now on no one will mention the fire again.
If anyone says anything
or tries to run home, then, they will be punished under military law.
If you guys are sad or want to cry
then cry it all out
If there's any questions then ask now
Once we leave the mountain and return to headquarters
I will not admit to this
You must all know
protecting family, protecting Changsha, the best way
is to fight to the end with the Japs. Do you hear me?
Yes sir.
This afternoon, the securities department and the guard division
had an meeting, discussed thoroughly, began the strategy
This is really happening?
Mom, don't be scared, don't be nervous
It has not been determined when the fire will start. We are still waiting for messages from the frontlines
Once the fire starts, we must all leave.
For the time being, stay at home, don't go anywhere.
especially you two, don't go wondering around
Xiangjun, later
hide all the valuables away
tomorrow I'll get a car and send you all to Xiangtan
What about you?
I haven't received my orders yet
I have to stay in Changsha, lots of business to take care of
If this was going to happen, why did I risk my life to go to Xiangtan?
I could have just waited for the car to send me.
You're still talking about it. Didn't say anything and left
and caused everyone to be so desperate searching for you.
Did you think about apologizing to everyone
Enough, enough, you are not so much better either.
Junshan, the family business
using a government car isn't that good
How about I send a letter back to Xiangtan
and tell them to send people to get us
Father-in-law, don't you find that too much work?
You all go to Xiangtan, I'm not going anywhere
Enough enough, its fine
Granny's matter, leave it to me
Xiangjun, this time the family is all up to you
Don't worry about it
Mom, can't you let it go
during the night your eyesight is not good
and can't see, and tomorrow...
You have something say, say it
Don't force something to say when there is nothing to talk about.
I already know what you want to say
Your wife and children
already tried to persuade me the whole night.
What you want to say
has probably already been said by them.
I am still saying the same thing.
I'll stay in Changsha and watch over the house
It is so easy to say so, but when the fire starts,
what are you going to do in the house by yourself?
Didn't Junshan already said? This house is very sturdy.
Fire will not burn through, water will not seep in.
unless a bomb drops from overhead
How could you believe his bragging?
It is true that Junshan has many flaws
but he never brags.
Ever since he married Xiangjun,
what did he not do once he promised it?
The whole family is taking refuge in Xiangtan
leaving only you here
how can we
How will the relatives in Xiangtan see us
With your great uncle there, no one will look down on you
Anyways, if he knows I'm not going
he'll be happy about it
Its already been forty years
and you still can't get past it
Mother, with the current events,
it is not time to dwell on past anger.
Do you think I am here being angry?
you go
Granny
What are you all doing
Mom, if you're not leaving
How can we, the younger ones, leave?
We're begging you, leave with us
Yes, granny, lave with us
If you don't go then we're not going
Get up...
get up...
get up now, listen to me
get up, get up
Mother, please just relent.
How did your older brother die
do you still remember?
I remember
All those years ago I brought your father and brother's memorial plaques
to Changsha
In front of the plaques
I made a promise
as long as I live I will never to return to Xiangtan
Did you forget
I didn't forget
Then don't talk anymore
You all leave
I have your Dad
and your brother's plaques to keep me company
That's enough
Father-in-law...how did it go?
Didn't you say your plan would work
Junshan, soft tactics works against granny rather than force.
Just try to persuade her again in a few days.
Its no use. All these years
Xiangtan sent people for years.
How many persuasion tactics, praises has been used?
She has never been moved
I don't think anymore persuasion will do anything.
Dad, exactly what feud does granny have with Xiangtan?
growing up she's never mentioned it
Yes, last time when Xiangshui came he said the same.
He didn't explain it clearly either. What is it exactly?
Don't ask things you shouldn't ask.
Wait, wait...
We all know granny's temper, very obstinate.
Even begging her like this does not do anything. persuading her is not going to work.
Then what should we do? If Granny doesn't leave, we can't leave
Here, I have a plan
What sort of plan?
Don't ask
I'm going to work, going on patrol.
Sleep early -Junshan...
Don't you trust me?...get to sleep
Brother-in-law, I have a idea, maybe I can help.
If you don't cause trouble, then, you are already helping.
Even the local government has moved, won't be able to hold onto Changsha
Yes, won't be able to hold it
On my way here, saw that even the government has moved
looks like the situation isn't good
Who said it isn't
I asked you here today because of this.
I want to hurry with the children's marriage
Coincidence, I am thinking the same thing.
Only, all of the auspicious dates in this month has already passed.
The next good date is next month, I'm afraid it might be too late
So I want to ask your opinion
Personally, I don't mind things like this.
just my family's elders
might mind this. I cannot overlook this.
Its understandable
Then, how about this?
I'll go home and discuss it over with my mom and daughter
Then we will discuss this again.
Yes, that would be good.
Marrying so fast. I thought it would be another year or so
You're scared, I already said that she didn't like Sheng Chengzhi
Shut up -Did I say the truth
Don't argue, we're discussing serious business
I saw
that there's no lucky dates this month
but next month's lucky date is after the 15th
The Sheng family want to get it done the quicker the better
to avoid future problems and I think that makes sense
The sooner the two get married, the sooner they can leave Changsha
Then our hearts will be at ease
How soon do they want it
there's no lucky date this month
At least we need to find a date with double digits.
Then, we need a few more days of preparation.
I thought of the date already
tomorrow
Tomorrow, that's too quick
Yes, tomorrow is too quick -You understand nothing
There are so many chairs, why are you taking mine?
Junshan
Nothing hurried about it.
Maybe the Japs are even going to get to the city tonight.
Then, tomorrow would be too late.
Junshan, its too quick
We haven't prepared anything -What's there to prepare
Dowry, gifts. They are all ready.
Get the two families together
for a meal and that's it. Everything else I'll take care of it
I...I'm not ready for it yet
What do you need to get ready? The whole family is busy for you.
She doesn't want to marry that little man
Xiangxiang, this marriage you agreed to it
I did agree but I didn't want to marry this early
Here, say it again
(mumble) I don't want to marry so early.
What do you want?
The whole family is busy for you.
Are you born under the sign of a mule? Doesn't go forward when pulled, goes backwards when hit.
Then can we at least wait until I come back? NO
Xiangxiang
you think about it
the whole family is leaving
and the Sheng's will think you're running away. How can they wait till you get back
then that proves that Sheng Chengzhi doesn't love me
If I don't marry its fine
I guessed right
she's just waiting to say this
You shut your mouth
I still think that tomorrow is too quick
marriage is for a lifetime
Such a hasty affair, it's too unfair for the two kids.
Unfair? How is it unfair?
This is called, urgent business must be done urgently.
Then, we can invite as many people as you want.
When they get to the inland, we can hold a ceremony for them.
We can even have a feast.
How about this
Tomorrow,
we'll hold an engagement so the Sheng's will satisfied
then each child will return to their families
Then, when they leave Changsha and arrives inland,
Then we will hold the wedding.
How about that -That sounds good
Just make it official and everything else will be easier
And it aligns with the conventions too.
Ask Xiangxiang first
Xiangxiang, will this do?
Don't ask, It's decided
You're not trying on the clothes inside and coming out again. Where are you trying to escape to?
What escape?
Escape the wedding.
Wake up will you? If you get caught, I'm going to get beaten badly.
What I agreed to something, I will of course keep my words.
Then what are you trying to do?
Have you ever thought about it? With brother-in-law's information
We can learn news from the provincial government. What about all the other people in Changsha?
Be quiet.
This is news that brother-in-law risked his live to get, you want the whole city to know and drag brother-in-law off to be shot?
Then, at least we need to tell family and friends and at least our cousin right?
At the least, i need to tell Jinfeng right?
so she can be prepared
Yes, Jin Feng doesn't know about it yet
Hurry hurry, lets go find Jinfeng
When it comes to Jinfeng, you have more energy than anyone.
What are you saying. The hospital's so busy how can I leave
Didn't I say it clear enough
My brother-in-law has inside information
he said that we definitely will not be able to keep the frontlines
We will lose Changsha soon.
What if they come? I'm more afraid the Japs don't come.
What if what came is not the Japs, but others?
Other? What other?
Japs or you
Just one word, Changsha will fall soon.
Leave as soon as possible.
Xiaoman, you already wasted a lot of my time
I have to get back to work now
Bring this to the patient in Bed 16
Listen to what I'm saying
Xiaoman
Xiaoman, what're you doing
The government's going to set fire to Changsha
Then, you will have to leave even if you don't want to.
Where did you hear this?
You don't need to know
Just leave.
I'm risking death exposing this news
Xiaoman, I don't have time to play games with you
your tricks won't work on me
Everything I say is true
Alright, lets' just say you're telling the truth, ok
Then, will you come with us to Xiangtan to escape the trouble?
Xiaoman, even if I leave Changsha
I won't go with your family
Fine, just hurry up and go home.
Why?
Ok, as long as you leave
you take care
Be alert, if the sirens start, immediately run outside the city
I know
What did you say? Doing it tomorrow?
Isn't it a little too rushed
Its an engagement not an official marriage ceremony
The family was pushing me, do you think I want this
Alright, I'll give you my congratulations
bride to be
Doctor Liu the Chief is looking for you
Ok, be right there
I'll leave first
Cousin,
What is it?
Is something happening at home?
No
I just think that the war situation right now is grave
its dangerous out there
if you hear anything wrong
Like sirens or something, run as fast as you can
Since the war started
Which day did Changsha not get bombed
What over came you today?
Why did you think of reminding me this?
Just say something.
Granny said I'll be engaged
so am an adult and should know how to take care of my family members
You won't go with us to Xiangtan
so I'm scared with only you here, no one will take care of you
So...
The child has finally grown up
You know to care about others now.
Just rest assured, we always do bomb drills at the hospital.
And this court yard has bomb shelters. I'll be fine.
I'm leaving, bride to be.
Cousin, you must be careful.
I wore this dress when I got married
at that time I was a young girl
You try it
change what doesnt fit
I'll fix it for you
Wear this tomorrow for the marriage ceremony
There's no ceremony
only an engagement
Its practically the same
After the engagement, the marriage will be soon
Here, try it
Granny
I'm a little scared
Don't be scared
When a young lady gets married, it's the first time.
When I got married I was scared to death
after it was over it was nothing
I'm scared that what Xiaoman is true
he said that in my heart I don't love Sheng Chengzhi
Being a women, we were born for a hard life
What does he know, how can you listen to his words
loving one person and marrying one person are two different things
When you're older
you will understand this
Granny, then wait till I'm grown up more and understand then I will marry
I don't want to marry so quickly
For women, getting married
if not tomorrow then next month
or next year, all have to go through it
Unless you are a fairy
Granny, I'll miss you all
Our family's Xiangxiang--has a good life
born into our Hu family
and became my obedient granddaughter
Now all she has to do
is to marry into the Sheng family
and become a happy wife
Won't have to suffer for your whole life
Xiaoman, Xiaoman
Later, change out of that grey clothing and change into this saffron coat.
I'm not wearing that.
I'll be like a giant date
Just listen to me.
Granny, its not like I'm getting married
Talking nonsense again
You must put this on
Xiangxiang, Xiangxiang
Come down for breakfast
I need to do your hair later.
This child
Changning, let me tell you
today is your daughter's big day
Don't put on such ghostly, wolf howling music.
Mother, this play,
is called Dragons and Phoenix Presenting Auspiciousness. It matches the occasion.
Becareful
Really, what is going on.
I'm fine, I'm fine
Write more okay? We need to paste it onto many places later
Father-in-law
What are you doing making so much noise this early
Why is everything out again when it's all been cleaned up?
Isn't it for preparing Xiangxiang's dowry.
Even though everything is to be kept simple, it can't be too unreasonable.
Sheng family has money, what's there to prepare
Xiangxiang has to have some face too
They say a girl marries for a lifetime
Just this once
Fine, fine, just this once
I'm going to the office
Since things are going on at home today, can't you just take a day off?
Take a day off? The Chief would rather I live in the office!
Take a day off...
then are you coming back tonight for the celebration dinner
there must be a man home for these type of situations
my dad, you know how he is
he doesn't know how to talk
if you're not here things won't work
Ok, I'll set things up
Fine
Finally, some celebratory mood
If we could have married her off from our old house at Chayuan lane, that would have been even better.
Its already been bombed, what is the point of mentioning it again?
No one is allowed to talk about such unhappy matters okay?
I know, Mom
Move aside, move aside
Why are you running aimlessly?
Drive quickly
Yes!
Chief, the Japs are here?
It is not that. the Japanese are still at Xinjiang river
They will not be here for some time.
But the order from the top
is to prepare to burn the city
What are the orders?
Setting the fire is the Guard Division's job.
We just need to assist.
We just need to prepare for them materials and fuel.
That's simple
Many factories have left gasoline behind
I'll just bring those over.
This I'll leave to you
I'll have no worries
Chief...
I have some things going on tonight
Your sister-in-law's engagement
My family are all women or children and can't do with no men around
Two hours...two hours is all I need
Once my sister-in-law's business is done, I'll be back by eight o'clock
If I am late for half a minute, you can shoot me.
I wash my hands of you. Go..go..Come back early.
Chief, you want to come tonight?
No, these past days I've been thinking
Once the fire starts,
we become the criminals of Changsha
I'm not in the mood for a celebration
I'm going
Xiao Di, lets go
Captain, Captain, Captain Xue
You look familiar
This is Mr. Xu who rented a truck from us last time.
Yes, I remember
Is there something you need?
Captain Xue, its this
A few brothers and I prepared a bottle of premium wine.
We invite you to try it.
I'm busy now. Next time, okay?
Captain Xue, we have important things to ask you.
Who doesn't know that in all of Changsha
only Captain Xue knows everything.
Only you can help me in this matter.
Just one glass. I still have work to do.
Take everyone to the ship repair factory and find all the gasoline.
Don't make a big fuss, and come here to wait for me. Yes sir.
Let's go - please
Reporting, the mayor has sent a letter over
What kind of times it is but the Mayor is still doing this type of things.
Today is the father of the country's anniversary
Changsha prepares a memorial every year.
I don't know why they invite me this year.
This mayor really have good information sources
knows how to kiss ass
Will you go to this event?
I'll go, of course I'll go
I have to go see Chairman Zhang
Captain Xue, this way
Captain Xue is here
Captain Xue, please sit
Sit, sit
Sit down... Sit.
Let me drink two sips
Captain Xue
I'll represent them to say some things
Speak I heard that the people above plan to set fire
Burn Changsha, Is this true?
How do you know?
Episode 8
Captain Xue, let me represent everyone to say something.
Shoot it.
I heard that the people above plan to set fire and burn Changsha
Is it real?
How do you know it?
So its true?
Forget if its true or not, I'm asking you who told you
It is like this, I have a worker
Who has a relative in the army training divison
He never contacts him
but several days ago, he suddenly sent him a letter
which says that because the war situation is severe
This city might not safe.
At that time, the government plan on burning the city.
he told him to pack his things and leave.
Captain Xue, who doesn't know that in Changsha
you get all the news
If its true
you have to tell us
Yes, you have to tell us
Our homes are also in Changsha
If Changsha were to burn down
then we wouldn't have anything left
Your family hasn't left?
Not yet
My family also hasnt left
Go ask around.
My sister-in-law is getting engaged to the textile Sheng family tonight
If its true, do you think I would still be sitting here
Would I still be sitting here
But, no What no?
Have I not been clear? Must I explain things word by word?
No. Such. Thing.
No, no, no
You see, Changsha...
is such a big city...
with so many good things...
and citizens...
How can it all burn down
Not happening, no way
If it was really true
then how come my security department didn't receive this news
Huh, did you receive it?
No, absolutely no
You see, no
But what's been passing around makes sense
Why are you listening to rumours?
I'm telling you no, then no
I've put my words down, you guys can believe it or not.
If you don't believe me, you can go ask Chairman Zhang or Mayor Xi
See if they will arrest you
Go and see if he will not arrest for spreading rumours and discord
No, no, Captain Xue
Captain, its like this
We are all small businesses
We cannot withstand crises
Please just let the small things go
Just pretend we never said anything.
Didn't say anything
I said one cup
here, here
No need to see me out - Then we'll see you to here
Big brother, if you talk to them like this...
If the fire really starts, what do we do?
Why are so so dumb, didn't I already tell you?
Siren, Siren, there will be a siren before the fire
Who won't run when they hear the siren? Are they dumb?
But speaking of which, if the fire really starts
The population will take us for account
Then, then, what do we do?
Pretend ignorance, don't know anything, pretend you don't know
Or else just one spit from each citizen in Changsha will drown us.
Brother, are you scared people scold?
I'm not scared
I'm scared of your sister-in-law
Your sister-in-law family, they don't want face?
I wouldn't want her in the future on the streets
with people scolding her.
But what we are doing is exactly things that are hateful.
You think only you know? Only you know?
go and get the car here
Dad...Dad
Where are you going to?
Today is the father of the country's memorial day, the city is having a remembrance day
I am the scholarly representative, I can"t not go
Sheng family's wedding gifts will be here soon
Today is a special day, you can't just go
Look, they've sent me the invitation a longtime ago
They are inviting me to represent the scholars for a speech.
It is difficult to decline.
Junshan has duties and you are not here either
There won't even be a man in the family
How are we going to greet the Sheng family?
Mr. Sheng is understanding
He should understand how important this speech is for the whole city.
He will not mind us for not our lack of etiquette.
I will go and come back as soon as possible.
Dad...
The little man is really...why is he so slow.
Can't you see I'm busy
You took down your hair even though mom just did it for you.
Today is an engagement not a marriage
why should I look like that?
Didn't you hear brother-in-law?
After the engagement you will have to go with the little man. It is just a matter of days.
Even so, no.
The style these days is wearing wedding dresses. Who still wear such ugly clothes?
Look at you, just after saying that engagement is not a wedding and your already clambering to wear a wedding dress.
That's easy, just get that little man to buy is for you.
You brat, if you dare to say it again, I'll scratch up your face like a tabby cat.
If you can scratch my face up like a sunflower
then I'll thank you.
Xiaoman, today is the birthday memorial of the father of the country.
I heard there will be a thousand people fire torch parade.
You go with me, Xiaoman
Let's go.
I'm not going. Brother-in-law will beat me again
You're just a coward.
Jeesh, the door banners are not even changed.
You came home? My Son.
Where's Xiangxiang and Xiaoman?
Still upstairs doing her hair.
Why would Xiaoman be doing her hair, call him down to help.
Really.
Xiangjun where's father-in law?
He went to participate in the father of the country anniversary memorial.
Isn't that just adding trouble? I'll call him back -
Come back.
He said that he'll hurry back after the speech.
By the time he give the speech it will be tomorrow. Such a big thing, how could there not be a man at home?
I'll go look for him
Lets go
Where are you going? - It's urgent, just don't ask.
Xiangxiang, Xiaoman, Granny's calling you to come down
the Sheng family will be here soon
Ok, I'll be right down. You go tell them
Be quick then
But
What do you want?
I should be asking you that
Today is Xiangxiang's engagement day
Where are you going? Our home isn't here
Today is the father of the country's anniversary memorial.
That's the government's business, why are you involved?
I am the scholarly representative, I'm giving a speech.
With so many people, after you speak it will be dark
I don't care -I care
I've received the invitation so I have to go. People need to keep their words, that is my principle.
Yes, you should really talk about principles. Brother?
Uncle...Sorry
What are you doing, want to kidnap me
Don't you know how to respect your elders. I'm your father-in-law
How can we be fighting in such a serious place.
how will it look, people will laugh at us
Father in-law, today is your daughter Xiangxiang's engagement day
I will have to let other people laugh.
Uncle...Lets go
You only think about yourself. You have no patriotism.
Is only Xiangxiang's engagement important.
and the father of the country's memorial day not important?
Uncle, lets go
Get in the car. Get in the car
What kind of time is this that they are still having a engagement.
Would you like to go drink a glass to their happiness?
Stop rambling on.
What is this? Its a can.
Fine, fine, hurry up.
Good, its delivered?
Junshan you're home, look its the wedding gifts from the Shengs
Changning, its good that you're home
Take out a few bottles of your good wine.
So that we can drink it in the banquet later.
Didn't we agreed that
The husband's side prepare for it?
You're just a dumb scholar, really.
Even if the other party prepares for it, we need to at least show a the thought
Besides, if we don't drink those good wine now, when are you waiting to drink them?
Granny, don't talk about father-in-law like that
It is not like father-in-law doesn't do anything.
What did he do?
Drink wine and read books.
Junshan...
Enjoying alcohol and reading are the cultured behaviour of scholars.
How can someone like you understand?
Dad...
...really
He's angry
These are all matured wine.
The 20 year old Laimao
Changning, don't be stingy alright?
This is wine for Xiangxiang's engagement
will have to be the best
I know...
To be able to be connected with Changsha's prominent Sheng family
is our Hu family's luck.
thank you thank you
Its us that can't match up
Really thankful to you for letting such a good girl marry Chengzhi
In the future if Chengzhi treats her poorly
I would not allow it
Boss Shèng, there is your words. we are not worried.
My sister-in-law is still young and doesn't understand
if marry, there is any problem, punish her
