[Divorce Lawyers]
Episode 26
[To The Marriage That's About to End]
The year we got married.
Dong Da Hai said
'Jin Xiu, will you marry me?'
'I'll love you forever.'
'I'll look after you always.'
Despite my parents' objection, I insisted on marrying him.
This was our bedroom. A tiny room in the basement.
Mom and Dad.
Today, I'd like to say something to you.
I'm sorry.
I didn't listen to you.
I was wrong.
This was when we held a belated wedding banquet.
During the ceremony, Dong Da Ha told my parents
'Mom and Dad, I'll look after Jin Xiu for the rest of her life.'
'You won't need to worry about her at all.'
This is our daughter.
Dong Miao Miao.
When I was pregnant with her
we were both so happy.
Dong Da Hai said...
'My surname's Dong and yours is Miao.'
'So let's call our daughter Dong Miao Miao.'
This is starting to get a little weird.
Are you sure nothing will go wrong?
If you don't find it touching then go and see if Luo Mei Yuan's here yet.
If she comes and ruins the ceremony then we'll be in trouble.
I signed a huge deal with this guy.
He even promised me a car. We better not mess this up.
Otherwise we'll end up earning nothing just like the last case.
Don't worry, it's all under control.
Make sure you keep it under control.
In this year
Dong Da Hai broke his leg.
He also lost his job.
I borrowed money from my mom
and asked my parents to look after our daughter for us.
Back then, we didn't have a car
and we didn't have many friends who had a car.
So we had to catch a cab to the hospital every time.
I remember one time when we had to go to the hospital
it was pouring rain.
So I...
I had to stand in the rain for two hours until I got a cab.
Dong Da Hai had a total of three operations.
After his operations, the doctor said
his recovery would be quicker and better if he could go for massages.
It cost a hundred yuan for a massage.
Back then, I worked as a translator.
I earned ten yuan for translating a thousand words.
So I had to translate ten thousand words to earn enough for one massage.
It took me a whole night to finish ten thousand words.
But I was willing to do it.
One day
when we got to the hospital
the electricity was out
so we couldn't take the elevator.
Dong Da Hai said
'Jin Xiu, let's just go home.'
'It doesn't matter even if I have to limp a bit in the future.'
But I didn't want that.
I felt so bad for my husband.
I didn't want that to happen to him.
I still don't know how I suddenly became so strong
and carried him all the way up to the third floor.
Back then
we didn't have much money and couldn't afford a caregiver.
Life was certainly very harsh
but...
I was very happy.
This photo was taken
after Dong Da Hai went to work in Shenzhen.
He'd come back to visit me and our daughter when he had time.
But when he was busy, I'd fly over there to visit him instead.
This is a photo of all my plane tickets.
We've certainly made a huge contribution to the airlines in China.
In this year, Dong Da Hai told me
that he wanted to start a business.
But he wasn't sure if he was going to succeed.
So I said to him
'Just start a business if you want to.'
'It doesn't matter if you fail because I'll still be here for you.'
To be honest, the first three years of our business were extremely difficult.
I translated non-stop every day.
I kept working and working, day after day.
Dong Da Hai said to me
'Jin Xiu, I might spend ten yuan of your money today.'
'But I'll pay you back a hundred'
'a thousand, even ten thousand in the future.'
And he did, he kept his promise.
He's certainly repaid me more than enough.
This was the first car that we bought.
Since we got this car
our whole family has gone many different places in it.
This was the first house that we bought.
When Dong Miao Miao...
When she started her first day of school
Dong Da Hai said
that he'd be responsible for supporting our family in the future.
He said that all I had to do was to stay home and be his wife
and look after his daughter and parents.
So in that year
I resigned and stayed at home.
This is Dong Da Hai's father, my father-in-law.
Due to a blood clot in his brain...
I took him to every hospital in Beijing.
I'll always remember that year. From memory
I spent every single day running from one hospital to another.
Dong Da Hai's mother
my mother-in-law, was diagnosed with dementia.
She no longer recognized anyone in the family but me.
I looked after her until she became paralyzed one day.
She had to lie in bed all day.
But I kept taking care of her
until the day that she passed away.
- Attorney Chi. - There you are, Director Luo.
Let's sit over there, come on.
What a grand ceremony.
- I think it sucks. - It's just a formality.
It'll be over soon.
What a beautiful flower.
It's just to go with the celebratory atmosphere.
So who arranged such celebrative decorations?
Are they planning to go back to their wedding chambers afterward?
Director Luo, you should be happy about this.
Once this is over, you can then become the official Mrs. Dong, right?
When Dong Da Hai's brother borrowed money from us for his wedding
we also bought him a new house.
- When Da Hai's sister broke up... - Master Chi.
- Director Luo. - What's the point of this video?
Who'd want to listen to their story?
She might as well go all the way back to the Tang dynasty.
There's no way that a miracle will happen.
Parents usually cry when they see their daughters get married.
They were married for 25 years, after all.
Don't worry, once this is over
then he's all yours.
- Have some water. - But what's the point of doing this?
Don't you want your car anymore?
Listen, I'm pregnant right now.
If you mess this up
and drive Da Hai crazy, you'll be dead meat.
- Are you going to stop her or not? - I'll do it right away.
Xiao Gang, look after Director Luo.
Okay.
Here you go.
I'll just hold it for you.
The most common places I went to were the school and hospital.
Just stop after this slide.
What are you doing?
I thought you said it's a short film.
It's almost the end.
Have a little respect, okay?
I'm afraid my client will have killed herself by then.
- Stop it now. - What are you doing?
Just ignore him, keep going.
Look at everyone's tears.
I'll be in tears if I lose this client.
- Stop it. - One minute.
- The final minute. - Definitely.
Take it easy.
He'd been told that wearing jade would improve his health.
In this year, we were told that he had a fatty liver.
I got very worried.
I ordered a special diet for him
and we had only simple meals.
Three months later
all his test results were normal again.
Then we bought another house.
We had the house renovated...
This ceremony was organized by Master Chi and Luo Li.
As for their fake divorce, that was my idea.
When Dong Da Hai was hospitalized for gastric bleeding
I didn't do anything else except take care of him 24 hours a day.
To be honest...
it was very tiring.
But I was actually quite happy.
Because I could see him every day...
and stay with him all the time.
I mean
he actually let me stay with him all the time.
In this year
Dong Da Hai went to Yang Zi Jiang University
and completed his MBA.
This was when Miao Miao went abroad to study.
So I went to stay with her for a whole year.
Dong Da Hai also gave me a supplementary platinum credit card.
He said
'Jin Xiu.'
'You can spend as much money as you want to.'
'You can buy whatever you want and do whatever you want with it.'
Then we went and bought a house in the States.
Dong Da Hai was extremely busy
so he couldn't spend any time with me.
But during each festival and anniversary
he'd ask his secretary to send me all sorts of presents.
I remember one time I wore a watch that he had given me.
When my friend saw it, she told me
that it cost a million yuan.
I was absolutely shocked.
I've been to many places around the world with my daughter.
We've been to Paris, London, Tokyo
and even Africa.
But Dong Da Hai was always too busy to go on vacation with us.
But no matter where we went
he'd always call us
and we'd send him postcards.
[Divorce Agreement]
This year, he decided to divorce me.
I never expected
that the man whom I love so much
would ever divorce me.
I never expected
that Dong Da Hai would ever lie to me.
I thought even if the whole world lied to me
Dong Da Hai would never, ever lie to me.
However...
I don't know why.
I don't know what I did wrong.
I got extremely mad.
I cried and threw tantrums.
But none of that worked at all.
When a man wants to start his own business
what he needs is a woman like me
who can give him warmth, comfort, and care.
But once he's gotten higher up
and begins to pursue bigger and better things
he no longer...
needs a woman like me.
That's why I was kicked out of the game.
If marriage is an investment
I guess I can say that I've already earned more than I deserve.
There would be no way for an ordinary woman like me
to have earned so much money if I had just relied on my own ability.
But it's not money that I want.
I just want my family.
I just want my husband back.
- Wait... - Get out of my way.
I just want to tell my daughter...
- Don't go. - I want to tell her...
I want to tell Dong Miao Miao...
that I'm sorry.
I didn't protect our family.
It's all my fault.
I just want her to be happy.
Make sure you stay healthy and don't follow in my footsteps.
Remember this.
You must love yourself
and invest in yourself.
Don't ever get lost and forget yourself in a marriage.
Once you forget who you are in your marriage
then your man will also gradually forget who you are.
Remember what I told you.
Don't you forget.
No matter...
No matter how rich you are and how many houses you have
you'll never be happy.
I, Miao Jin Xiu...
Right now
I don't have a career.
I don't have a husband.
I don't have a family.
I don't have love.
All I have is money.
So am I happy?
How can I be happy?
Will I ever be a happy person?
Chi.
Sometimes I reckon being lawyers can be quite difficult
and immoral.
Think of all the couples that we've broken up.
I'm actually quite worried about bad karma, aren't you?
I already have.
I still think it's much better for people to stay in love.
I'd like to especially thank my lawyer, Luo Li.
Thank you for teaching me so much wisdom.
Thank you for helping me end my 25 years of marriage
in everyone's presence today.
Thank you for putting together this slideshow for me.
Thank you for choosing today's theme song
called 'You're Not The One'.
Thank you all for coming to my divorce ceremony.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you.
All right, now let's get on with
the third part of today's ceremony.
It is also the most important moment.
It's time to put on her veil
and send her off in the palanquin.
I'd like to ask the ex-groom to put the veil on the ex-bride.
From now on, they shall have nothing to do with one another
and go their separate ways.
Jin Xiu, let's go home.
Yes!
They finally got back together!
Let's go home, come on.
Yeah...
- So how did I do? - Great.
Then what's going to be my reward?
Roses symbolize love.
It's a Chinese rose
and symbolizes his marriage and my million-yuan pay.
I have to go now.
Dong Da Hai!
Come on, sing with me.
I can't sing.
Chi.
You're so boring.
I'm sick of singing on my own.
I really can't sing. Also now that you sang
I'm too embarrassed to sing.
Yeah, I can understand.
My mom said I have a great voice.
- That's why you're embarrassed, right? - Your mom's certainly right.
- Of course. - You're actually quite something.
Do you realize how big a loss you've created by getting them back together?
I'll work it out for you.
Do you charge a 10 percent or 20 percent commission?
It's not about money.
People say breaking up a marriage is the worst thing you can do.
So we've actually done them a huge favor.
Do you realize how much this favor has cost me?
But I thought you still get paid whether you win the case or not.
But I'm too embarrassed to take their money.
I'm impressed, Chi.
I'm suddenly seeing a halo above your head.
It must have been my good influence.
If I take the money, what if they come after me later?
Look at you, I thought you were so righteous but you're actually just scared.
Why are you wearing my sweater?
I got a little cold when you started singing.
- Do you have a fever? - No.
Let's keep singing.
- I'll pick a fast song. - Keep singing?
If you keep on doing this
we might as well stop being lawyers.
Let's just be Cupid instead.
We just collaborated.
- For what? - For nothing.
Come on...
- I think I know this song. - You do, right?
I think so.
I know the monologue.
Chi.
What do you think of this song?
It's too stimulating.
The name of this song is
'My Lover's Gone Away'.
Li Li, listen.
The TV station just called me and asked me to go on their show again.
But your dad's being so ridiculously unreasonable.
Just as my career's starting to take off.
Why can't he be a little more supportive?
- You're the unreasonable one. - Come back now.
Come back and talk to him.
They just want to make fun of you.
Don't overestimate yourself.
Why are you mumbling?
- Say it out loud if you dare. - So what if I say it out loud?
I've said it.
Wake up.
Look, this is your place, and that's my place.
Where should we go?
Are you sure?
Go take a shower.
You're certainly very experienced.
I like it.
Wait for me.
It'll be illegal if you don't wake up.
Wake up...
You liar.
- Auntie. - What happened?
- She's drunk. - What did you do to her?
I didn't do anything.
- She's just drunk. - How did she get drunk?
Since they got back together at the divorce ceremony
she was very excited.
- So were you drinking with her? - No, with her client.
Darling, hurry!
- Put her down now. - What happened?
- She's drunk. - Look at her. Come this way.
How did she get so drunk?
Unbelievable.
This way.
- Quick, put her down. - Over here.
- She must be heavy. - She can't even walk.
What if people see you like this?
- Her bag. - Thank you.
Are you okay yourself?
How could you get so drunk?
Is very dangerous for a girl to get so drunk.
You could have gotten into big trouble.
Wait, her shoes.
Who was she drinking with?
That should do.
Just look at yourself.
You should have celebrated at home.
You should have celebrated with us.
We could have drunk with you as well.
That's enough, stop nagging her and let her sleep.
Why would she want to drink with us?
- She's got her own friends. - What friends?
- Friends who got her drunk? - She's allowed to have her own friends.
He's not a friend, he's a pervert.
Go and get her a hot towel.
- Hurry. - Absolutely ridiculous.
Dear audience, good evening.
- I'm your VIP guest... - Special guest.
[- Miss Luo, want to have dinner tonight? - Sure, your treat?]
[ I said dinner, didn't say I'm treating.]
[All right, my treat. How about the restaurant downstairs?]
[- Sure. - It's a deal. My treat, you pay.]
[- Hey, you sing so well. - Thanks for your compliment.]
[- Let's go singing again next time. - No, thanks.]
[My treat. Listening to me sing is your blessing.]
[I don't think that's necessary.]
Let's discuss...
You've been memorizing these lines for the past few days.
It's all your fault.
Otherwise I could have memorized it all.
Fine.
Listen, our crew's going on a day trip during Chinese New Year.
Only the creative team's allowed to take their families.
Why would you want to go on a day trip in the cold?
Boring.
Dad, you shouldn't have talked back.
- You should have just pretended to be deaf. - I agree.
Let me tell you something.
Only rich people go there for day trips.
The air's so fresh and they have hot springs and ten-pin bowling...
- I'll take the hot spring. - What about you, Li Li?
Why would I want to go on a day trip with old people?
What old people?
There are plenty of young people in our crew.
There are directors, photographers, lighting people
hair and make-up, costume people, drivers, as well as the production team.
There are going to be so many young people.
- We have nothing in common. - How do you know that?
You haven't even met them.
Why don't you bring Pan Xiao Gang with you?
Oh god.
Where are you going?
- Where are you going? - For late night snack.
But you haven't even had dinner yet.
- Li Li. - That's enough.
Why are you stopping me?
Why must you force her to go on that day trip?
Do you realize how fast time passes?
Aren't you worried about our daughter being single?
No, she'll find someone to marry eventually.
Only princesses don't have to worry.
- Are you a king? - No, I'm not.
But my daughter's a queen, get it?
Come on.
So she used to be a princess and now she's become a queen.
Who'd want to marry a queen?
Stop worrying about this and try to memorize your lines.
Let me tell you what that line is.
It's about the problem of being considerate to one another...
- You mean art. - Yeah, art.
Ready, go.
Dear guests, good evening.
I'm the VIP...
I'm the special guest, Li Chuen Hua.
- Is it fun? - Yeah.
Let's take a photo.
- Look, it's really pretty. - Yeah, let's take a photo.
Okay.
- Hang on. - It doesn't fit.
- That girl. - Let's ask her to take it for us.
Excuse me, can you take a photo for us?
- Sure. - Thank you.
Thank you.
- Want to have a look? - Okay, thanks.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
Attorney Luo.
What are you doing here?
Ms. Miao, Mr. Dong.
- I'm just having a snack. - A snack?
Attorney Luo, have you got any plans for Chinese New Year?
I guess I'll probably just stay home with my parents.
Why don't you spend it with us?
No, I don't want to be the odd one out.
- Of course not. - No, it's like this.
My company's booked a hotel for our annual conference.
So I've invited a lot of guests and friends.
- Yeah, please come. - You should join us.
- But I don't have a boyfriend to bring. - Here's the invitation.
Remember to dress up, like a ball gown.
I really don't think I should go.
You live just across the hall from Attorney Chi, right?
Here's his invitation. Please come with him.
So he's going as well?
Yeah, you can come with him.
Okay, I'll see you then.
- That's good. - Remember to dress up for it.
- We'll see you then, bye. - Okay, bye.
