Episode 13
These past few days, I've already moved everything out of the house so that I could give it to the bank.
Please take care of mom.
I can take care of mom.
But do you think she won't worry about you?
Ting Ru and I have already moved back to her parents' house.
Back to her parents' house?
Even I know how her parents will treat you.
You're the big brother in our family.
You are the head of the family.
You go to their house,
you have to see their looks, and hear them talk bad about you.
How about this...
I'll lend you some money so you can find a place.
It's not important if I don't have dignity in front of outsiders.
I'm already a useless big brother.
And I still need my younger brother to lend me money to to live beyond one's means?
Forget it.
You're my big brother!
I don't want you squandering away.
Give me some time.
When my situation improves, I will get the house back for mom.
Don't force yourself.
You still have me, your younger brother.
Let's buy it back together.
I promised dad that I would make mom happy.
We let mom suffer too much.
You just wanted to let mom have a better life.
It's not your fault. The economy is bad.
I'm sorry.
And I'm sorry to mom.
You're the big brother.
No matter how big the problem is, you must endure.
You can't be meek.
If dad was still around, he would have punched you already.
If only dad was still here...
It's fine that dad's not around.
I can hit you for him.
After you got married and had kids, you became soft.
Dad didn't.
You're just like dad.
That's right.
I am skeptical that you aren't our parents biological son.
Good thing nothing happened.
It's just...
The situation... I let them handle it. I'm fine now.
Let's go.
Hey, Yi Qing.
From your professional experience, do you think it's okay to disturb them now?
Of course it's not a good time.
Let's go back to Living Happiness #1 first.
Yi Qing?
Gao Mama.
Gao Mama, why are you here?
I made some of Ding Ya's favorite dishes.
I...
I'm in the wrong place.
Ding Ya is so lucky.
Let me introduce you to some friends.
This is Jiang Xiao Qian.
This is He Xiao Quan.
Ding Ya lives at his place right now.
I've seen him before.
And the first time was on the internet.
Let's not talk about that anymore.
If you want to see Ding Ya, let's go inside.
Yi Xing.
What's wrong?
It's like this...
We have some other guest over right now so it might not be convenient.
Ding Yu? What are you doing here?
Your appetite is a bit shocking.
This is bigger than mine.
I'm in a good mood.
Hey, let me tell you.
Say it.
The tree in front of you is so serious and hardworking.
Do you think it's okay?
Truthfully speaking, it's still not up to my standards.
Is that right?
But it barely passes.
There's improvement.
Really?
That's great.
I said it barely passes.
Why are you so happy.
This way, I will be closer to my goal, Hong Tian Nu.
Who is Hong Tian Nu?
Qian Mian Nu Lang & Tian Bao Lian's ultimate goal is Hong Tian Nu.
She is a plum tree fairy.
Wait wait.
Who is Qian Mian Nu Lang?
Who is Tan Bao Ling?
Why are there so many characters.
How do you not even know this?
You really suck.
Qian Mian Nu Lang is really famous.
My mom loves watching her.
But there's no ending.
You want to act in either romance or manga.
Can't you have any normal shows and acting parts.
I just like these kinds.
And who said these genres can't be performed on stage.
Who regulated it?
Tell me.
Never mind. I can't talk over you.
It's because I'm more reasonable right?
Yes, yes, yes, you're really reasonable.
Then I wish you luck with getting your "The Bossy President is in Love With Me" and manga series on stage.
Thank you.
Alright. It's late.
I'll take you home.
You're taking me?
Did you want to send me then?
No. You should take me home.
Boys should send girls home.
Let's go.
Alright.
Let's go.
You're home.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
There's got to be some disaster on such a long trip.
I will pay for the stuff that was broken.
Okay.
I'll use this opportunity to take advantage of repayment.
That's right.
Did you tell your mom about the situation when he was about to take her home?
Even though I told my brother that I would tell her about it,
I found it hard to say.
That's understandable.
This situation came up so suddenly.
How can we expect an older person to accept it if we can't even?
I really don't want to see her hurt and sad face.
I'm sure my older brother is the same. That's why he kept it from her.
So you don't plan on telling her?
I can't not tell her.
The house will be gone. She's definitely going to be sad.
I don't want her to feel that her sons want to deceive her and break her heart.
I need to find a time.
Once the house is gone, move your mom over here.
You can have my room. I'll stay with Xiao Kang in his room.
No. I'm already an inconvenience to you.
How could I bring my mom to live here too?
We're brothers, don't be so polite.
We're brothers, but my mom isn't.
If we force her to move in with us, she'll feel really weird.
That's true.
Xiao Quan.
Thank you very much.
If you're any more polite we'll be strangers.
But where she is going to live is still a problem.
I better hurry and look for a place.
Have you thought about having your mom stay at Living Happiness #1?
We're here. Hurry and go inside.
It feels like the time passed quickly tonight.
I didn't need to work tonight,
or else I wouldn't be able to be with you until so late.
Then my luck is very good.
Hurry and go inside. I'm leaving.
That...
You can be like before and just call me by my name.
Really?
Xiao Kang?
What would you like to say?
In the future, I'm saying if...
If there is a chance,
can you go with me again to the mountain and see the night view?
Sure.
As long as I don't need to work or act, I can.
Also,
in the future, can you talk to me more tenderly
and not be so mean to me?
I can't do that.
Why?
Because...
Because what?
I said I can't, so I can't.
I thought we were friends already.
I never said that we weren't friends.
Also, friends don't always talk to each other tenderly.
So you're saying we're friends?
Yes. That's about right.
Thank you for being my friend.

Friend, see you tomorrow.
Bye bye, my friend.
Bye bye.
Dad, I'm home.
Dad, you haven't eaten yet?
These vegetables...
Garlic bread?
You went there?
You smelled it? Are you nostalgic?
Since your mom died, you haven't gone back there.
Why did you suddenly go there?
I just felt like going there.
Did you go by yourself?
Go get some rest. It's late already.
Then these vegetables...
I'm not eating them.
Why does dad look so lonely?
Did I say something to hurt him?
He should be fine tomorrow right?
Xiao Kang, did you just get up?
I have something to ask you.
What is going on with you and Xu Tong?
What's up?
Have you been too mean to her? Or something else?
Mean?
No, I haven't.
After all, she's a still a girl.
You need to be more tender with her so you don't create any misunderstandings.
Even President Xu is coming to me about it.
President Xu came to find you?
Of course.
She's his precious daughter.
Don't be so strict during your practices. Understood?
You need to pay attention to that. I'm going out now.
ok.
What's going on with President Xu...
This is breakfast?
Yes.
Dad, I thought you couldn't handle the smell of garlic.
Why would you want to eat garlic bread for breakfast?
I want to.
And I've decided to eat it everyday. Every meal.
If you want to eat some, you can come to me.
This way we can smell bad together.
What is going on?
Could it be... male menopause?
Xiao Kang, there's a customer over there that insists you serve him.
Insists?
Okay, I'll go over.
Hello, I'll be serving you today.
What would you like to eat?
What's wrong?
Did you do something against your conscience?
Your face has changed after you saw me.
No no. Hello, President Xu.
I didn't think you would come here.
May I ask, what you would like to order?
Garlic bread, corn chowder soup.
Ok, I'll go prepare it.
Wait a minute.
I haven't finished ordering.
I want to order a lot of things.
You need to remember it clearly.
Please rest assured, President Xu. I will remember it.
I want to order, wholeheartedness, cooperation,
three lifetimes, and steadiness.
Remember it.
What is he saying?
Why do both father and daughter speak like their from outer space?
If one of my orders are missing,
you better be ready to be destroyed, disowned.
At that point when I'm angry, there will be war
and death, and even if you have nine lives
I will attack you from all directions.
President Xu, I will work hard on your order.
I knew you were a smart guy.
Also,
that tree, cut it.
My daughter wants a role where she talks.
Alright.
Then, I'll go first.
Mom.
You came?
You didn't have to run over.
Mom is waiting for you here.
Mom, it's not that. Why are you here at this time?
Why didn't you pick up Wei Wei and go to Hua Dong to play?
Do you think I'm that easily fooled?
What?
At this time, you want me to take Wei Wei to Hua Dong to play
so you could find time to organize the house. Right?

♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫
At this time, you want me to take Wei Wei to Hua Dong to play
so you could find time to organize the house. Right?
Mom, you're thinking too much.
This 3 day 2 night trip to Hua Dong is really a prize that older brother won.
It would be a waste if you didn't go.
It's wasteful.
Gao Ding Ya.
You and Ding Yu are both my sons.
Both born and raised by me.
I also know if there is hair on your butts.
You're still playing with me?
Give this to Ding Yu.
What is this?
I went to the travel agency today to get the money back.
How is that possible?
Older brother said that you couldn't get a refund.
Caught you.
You still want to lie?
When your older brother and his wife were talking,
I heard it by accident.
I also confirmed at the travel agency
that this wasn't a prize.
The money was paid by your older brother.
But didn't he say that you couldn't refund it?
How did you get back this money?
Who do you think I am?
Gao Lin Man Man.
As long as I do it, there is no "Can't do it".
You must have been bothered for a while.
Bothered? Such a minor issue.
No one can bother this old lady.
Since you know already,
why didn't you give it to him yourself?
I know you two were hiding this from me because you were afraid I would be worried and upset.
So I don't want to add to your brother's guilt.
He will understand if you give it to him.
Mom, can you not be so caring towards us?
What is wrong with you?
Suddenly sitting so close to me, and hugging me so tightly.
You're so big now, people will think you're a mama's boy.
If I'm a mama's boy, then I'm a mama's boy.
Who can stop me from loving you?
You really love me?
Of course I do.
Alright, my mama's boy,
right now there's something important.
The place where I lived is gone. Mama's boy needs to arrange for something.
My dear mother,
would you entrust your future to me?
Which show are you acting out now?
I'm showing you how deeply I love you.
I don't want to be separated from you.
I want to be with you forever.
Man Man, promise me.
Let me take care of everything.
Where do you want to take me?
Living Happiness #1.
Living Happiness #1?
I don't want to!
I knew it.
You don't need to worry about me.
I was afraid to be your burden.
I am fine. I can take care of myself.
I'm okay.
I can't be without you,
like a flower can't be without water
and a sunflower can't be without the sun.
Man Man, let us live together happily.
Just let me take care of you for the rest of your life.
Don't look at me with that soulful expression.
Your mom won't fall for it.
Mom! Don't be like this!
I really want to live close to you.
Every morning I wake up, and I can see you.
I want to give you my entire life.
Are these your true feelings?
Of course they're my true feelings.
It's fake.
It's real.
Please. Please. Please.
Please.
Please, mom!
Alright, stop saying please!
- I surrender. - For real?
- Enough. - You really agree?
Alright.
I knew that mom loves me the most.
If I don't love you, who would I love?
You're so good at being cute.
I only know how to be cute.
Mom, I love you the most.
Mom loves you too.
Knowing that Gao Mama is coming to live here, I've been busy these days cleaning the place.
But I forgot to ask Ding Ya if there's anything Gao Mama doesn't eat.
Don't be so nervous.
How can I not be nervous?
I didn't know that the first one to come live here would be Gao Mama.
Everything was just prepared quickly.
I'm afraid I forgot something.
Gao Mama is a very nice person.
She will tell you if she needs anything. Don't worry.
If she has to tell me, that means I'm not doing my job.
I think she's here.
That's all. I'll talk to you later.
Welcome!
What's up?
You're so startled to see me.
Am I not welcome?
No, that's not it.
Welcome. Of course you're welcome here.
I wasn't startled. I was surprised.
Please come in.
I was just joking with you.
Not bad.
You've cleaned it very well.
Thank you.
That's right. My luggage is all downstairs.
Alright, I'll go get it.
Mom.
Don't be sad.
There will be a day when I buy an even bigger and prettier house than this for you to live in.
It's not that I can't bear to lose this house.
I can't bear to lose the memories that our family spent in there.
It's fine if there is no house,
but does that mean the family is gone?
Why would it be gone?
Anywhere there is mom, there is home.
Home is wherever mom is.
You always say things that make people happy.
Because I'm speaking the truth.
And I promise you, once I make money,
very soon, our whole family can live together.
I wonder if you and your brother had conspired together.
Earlier Ding Yu also same something similar.
We definitely did not conspire.
Because me and older brother were born by you, the most wonderful mom.
It's getting late.
Let's go.
Alright.
My Princess, let's go to the castle!
What are you doing?
Scared me to death. Put me down!
I'm your mom. I'm not your doll.
Put me down, put me down.
Scared me to death.
My heart is beating out of my chest.
What are you doing?
No manners.
Take my luggage. Let's go.
Let's go.
Miss Tao, your luggage is all here.
Thank you.
Alright. I can pick my room now right?
I already picked for you.
You picked for me?
Yes. Because there will be another guest moving in to live.
You two must be connected.
You both picked the same day to move in.
House guest? What kind of house guest?
She is Gao Ding Ya's mom.
Gao Mama is very easy going and nice.
She's also a kind person.
That child is actually quite nice.
He's easy-going, and has a good sense of humour.
His mom must be a very cheerful person.
Then why isn't his mom living with him? Why is she staying here?
There's been a situation lately with their family.
Also, Gao Ding Ya lives right next door.
So if his mom stays here, they can take care of each other.
It's almost time.
I'll go get some tea and snacks ready.
Once Ding Ya brings his mom over I'll introduce you to them.
- Alright. - Please sit first.
I'll go see you soon.
Alright, let's eat dinner together.
There's no need. We will eat what you like.
Ok. See you later. Bye bye.

Shao Qi?
It's really you.
What a coincidence.
I heard Xiao Qian say that you were still in Shanghai.
Oh right. I came back early. I wanted to surprise Xiao Qian.
So it's like that.
That's right. I know that Xiao Qian has been busy with Living Happiness #1,
so I didn't want to disturb her.
Can you keep the fact that I'm back early a secret?
Ok. Don't worry. I won't ruin your romantic plans.
How have you been?
- Not bad. And you? What have you been busy doing?- I've been busy with
the promotion of Living Happiness #1.
Oh, yes. How is it going?
It's okay. How is Shanghai?
Shanghai is okay.
Ai!
I'm actually a super handsome son.
Why won't my mom even look at me?
Aren't I better looking than the scenery outside?
Of course.
I did birth you. I would never tire of looking at you.
Wow! You said that with such dominance.
You definitely are Empress Dowager, Man Man.
Your mom isn't a weak person.
I am also not the type who cannot withstand the blow. Back then, when your dad left
didn't I raise you two on my own?
Of course I know. Our family's cute Man Man is strong and tough.
But can't you give your son something to live for?
Okay, then sing.
Sing?
That's right. Sing for me.
Sing my favorite song to me.
You better not tell me you don't know what my favorite song is.
Huh? What is your favorite song?
-Think about it.- Uh...
Oh...can you sing it?
- Oh, this is putting my memory to the test. - Isn't this embarrassing?
Can it be...
Is it this song?
You still remember?
Of course. How could I forget?
That's a good son!

No problem.
Welcome, Gao Mama, to a new neighborhood.
You're so sweet to come and welcome me, and you also brought flowers!
Of course I should. I want to be the first to congratulate you.
I hope that your stay at Living Happiness #1 is happy and fun.
I will definitely be happy because of you.
These flowers are really pretty.
You really are an amazing, one in a million girl.
Don't worry, my son is also outstanding.
Ding Ya will definitely provide you with good future.
Xiao Qian has already set up your room. Why don't we go see it? I'm sure you'll like it.
Oh, we troubled her. That must've been a lot go work.
If Gao Mama can live here comfortably and happily, Ding Ya will be happy.
That's right, mom.
Let's go inside.
Mom, it's really pretty inside.
She's so considerate,
Thank you.
Gao Mama, you're too polite.
- Welcome, Gao Mama, to Living Happiness #1.- Thank you.
Please come in.
Thank you.
I'll do it myself.
I'm the caretaker here. Just call me Xiao Qian.
Then please take care of me.
- Ok. Thank you. - Are there flowers?
Lin Man Man?
Xiu Qiong?
Mom, do you know each other?
She's your mom?
That's right.
You know each other? That's great.
How is that great?
Even though I recognize her, I don't know her very well.
That's right. I don't know her either.
I must have forgotten you. What is your name?
That's right I forgot.
I forgot that Miss Tao is allergic to flowers.
I gave them to her.
Now what should we do?
Ding Ya! Did you forget that I'm allergic to flowers?
Oh right! I'm sorry! Sorry!
Mom, Xiu Jie Jie is allergic to flowers. Give them to me.
That's strange. She's allergic to flowers?
What does it have to do with me if she's allergic to flowers. Why do I need to...
Oh. Right.
What did you call her? You called her Jie Jie?(Older Sister)
What would he call me if he didn't call me Jie Jie?
That's right. Mom, she is my goodness. The goddess that I've always wanted to work with.
Goodness? You're better off treating her as Mazu instead.
Ding Ya, you make me feel embarrassed.
Why should you be. You've earned it!
Mom, I'm so jealous of you.
You get to live with a Goddess Xiu Xiu.
Admire her?
Come here.
Let go of him.
Son, I think we should go next door
and discuss... talk about things.
Let's go have a chat.
You can't talk here?
I would like to talk to you seriously.
Seriously?
Mom, let me get you some slippers.
What's wrong? Why do you suddenly want to talk to me seriously?
I don't want to live with that woman.
Which woman? Xiao Qian?
No. Tao Xiu Qiong.
Huh?
Tao Xiu Qiong.
Why?
That Lin Man Man...is she really going to live here?
It's nothing.
It's just that I suddenly feel like leaving the country.
A 'really want to leave the country' feeling.
I think I'll just move in after some time.
No, that won't work. President Xu has been anticipating this. He said that every day he...
What?
It's nothing. Miss Tao, why don't you first drink some healthy tea.
It will help with your complexion. Also, eat some cake. I made it this morning.
It's low in sugar and oil. It's very, very healthy.
Just eat a little.
Ok, since you're so sincere.
I'll leave right after I finish.
I'll go change this to a hot cup of tea.
What now? Miss Tao and Gao Mama looks like they're not only acquainted.
Far more than acquainted. Something is not lining up between the two of them.
Not lining up?
Do you think you should inform your boss, so that he can come over and be aware of the situation?
That way he won't think it was your fault that she left.
~ Preview ~Just give me the list of item you need to buy. I'll go get it.
Why are you insisting that I return home?
I guarantee that you will thank me tomorrow.
Thank you...for what?
Your face doesn't have clues. Only I understand the feeling of sadness.
