Episode 30
Alright, put you fingers straight on the strings.
Okay, C. Place these three.
You're back?
Here, this is for you.
Your name is on it. Why are you giving it to me?
If you don't want it then throw it away.
What is this?
Open it and see.
It's a purse.
It's a brand name one.
This brand...
Wow! This is really expensive.
The price should be at least 5 digits. Why would she just give it to me?
What should we do?
Hold on it for her. What else can we do.
But the people who are in the management level are always weird.
She just casually gave this expensive purse away.
How could normal people like us to survive?
Doesn't she know it's hard to earn money?
I'll help her to keep and put in my possession temporarily.
-Mom, good night.-Gao Mama, good night.
I can finally stop acting.
Hey, when are we going to stop acting?
We should at least pretend for the rest of the trip. Look at how happy my mom is.
The more hope I have, the more disappointment I will have.
Forget it. It won't help even if we talk about it.
I'm so tired.
I'm going to go wash up.
Oh yeah, choose between the ground or the sofa to sleep on tonight.
Oh? There's a sofa too? Many thanks.
Telling one lie leads to a hundred.
This is probably what's happening.
Who?
Ding Ya!
Open the door! It's mom!
Gao Mama?
Isn't she asleep already? Why does she still come here to bother us?
Mom! Wait a moment!
Hold on!
Okay.
-Gao Mama-Mom
Yi Qing,
Is there room okay?
Did Ding Ya properly take care of you?
Yes. He has arranged everything nicely.
Good, good. Then I don't have to worry.
Yi Qing, I'm sorry for bothering you.
No it's okay. Gao Mama, you didn't disturb us.
I know, I know. I understand.
Oh, it's so nice in here.
The air conditioning in my room is so strong.
It's so cold that my hand and feet are freezing and I can't sleep.
You have an extra blanket. Give it to me!
Give it to me!
No, mom you can't.
If I don't have it, I'll be cold. Give me the blanket.
Perfect! You two go to sleep. See you tomorrow!
-Mom, the blanket…-I'll use it. I will use it to cover myself up.
My mom is really here to trouble us.
If there's no blanket...
Don't get any ideas.
Don't worry, even if I don't have a blanket I can still use...
the robe.
You'll freeze to death with a robe.
Dying from coldness is better than being killed by you.
Am I that cold hearted?
Anyways, I won't cross the boundary.
Okay, okay.
I don't want you to,
get a cold and I'll have to take care of you as a pretend girlfriend.
Come over here.
Go over there.
Hey!
Sleep near the edge. Don't get close to me.
I swear.
Hey, let me ask you something.
Why can't you sleep on your own?
Are you afraid of the dark?
I don't know either.
As long as I am alone in a dark place
my whole person feels very empty and even to the extend of being panic.
But if there's another person there in the dark place
breathing with me, then I feel safe.
Let me tell you a story.
Even if you're alone in the future, you won't feel lonely.
What is the story?
This is a personal experience of one of my female friends.
Once, she went hiking with her boyfriend.
And, they encountered great wind and rain.
Then they found this abandoned house.
They went inside to hide.
And then?
And then, they made fire to keep warmth.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew to them.
And blew out their only source of fire.
They couldn't see anything.
Her boyfriend went around looking for
tools and materials, in the dark
that could re-make the fire.
My friend was wet from the rain
and it was dark, so she was cold and scared.
She kept shivering.
Then, my friend
felt someone breathe on her.
She thought, "It's okay now, my boyfriend is back."
She asked him if he found anything to re-make the fire.
Her boyfriend responded, "No."
But the voice was from somewhere far.
I wonder who was the person breathing by her.
Don't say it anymore!
Give me some of the blanket.
Give me the blanket.

Gao Ding Ya!
You're too cruel!
I was afraid you would misunderstand.
Don't worry. It was an accident. I don't have any feelings for you.
Goodnight.
Thank you very much for helping me get away from President Xu's troop like escort.
But instead of taking me back to Living Happiness #1, you've taken me here. Why?
I want to experience happiness with you.
Experience happiness?
You should know that I'm old enough to be your mom.
The happiness I am talking about is a story I want to tell you.
A happy story.
Here, sit down.
Sit.
Here.-No thank you. I ate enough already.
Take a bite and try it. It has the taste of happiness.
Could you be helping President Xu?
Separately trying to move me?
No, I brought you here on my own will.
Forget it. You don't have to explain.
Since you just helped me, I'll let you tell your story.
The story I want to tell pertains to a mother and daughter.
This mother's dream was to become a successful actress.
On the path to achieving her dream, she got pregnant.
For the child she was carrying,
she gave up the chance to achieve her dream.
Later, she decided to marry the child's father.
And became a great housewife.
But she did not feel regret or unwillingness.
And retained a good relationship with her daughter.
And had a shared a secret hiding place.
Are you finished?
Sister Xiu Qiong...
People who give up their dreams for family,
Is it that great?
People who are not willing to sacrifice for their dreams
are not good people.
And so everyone can call this person selfish and a narcissist?
That's not what I meant. I just wanted to share with you,
The person you're talking about it Xu Tong's mother right?
What does that have to do with me? Why are you telling me this?
Xu Tong is trying to fulfill her mother's dream.
Her mom already gave up, why is she interfering?
Why do I have to help someone who just gives up?
And me persevering until the end by myself,
Who will help me when only I am left at the end?
I...
The women who gave up their dreams received happiness,
so why can't a woman who pursues her dreams like me receive happiness?
It's only corn chowder with garlic bread.
With this extra ingredient of "sacrifice,"
you can earn their tears of compassion, get everyone's sympathy, imagine a lot of help from others?
Choose you own path in your own life,
whether it is worth it or not cannot be inferred by someone passing by. On the contrary, you can only swallow all your regrets.
Sister Xiu Qiong...
You can only swallow them.
Why are you touching me?
It is you who moved closer, okay, Miss?
You are the one who moved closer.
I moved closer because... it is really too cold.
You can take the blanket, I'll go take a walk.
I don't want to continue to deceive to her.
Yi Qing- - You don't need to persuade me,
if you want to continue to deceive,
You should find someone who is willing to do that with you.
Gao Mama
Hey Yi Qing. Sit.
Why are you up? Where's Ding Ya?
He's still sleeping. I just came out for a walk.
That's perfect.
You can chat with me.
Look,
it's quite cold tonight.
Even though the breeze is cool,
it feels nice.
Yi Qing,
I've been thinking as I sat here.
Though of us, as people,
are truly strange.
Like when I was young,
I married through an arrangement,
the other party
already confirmed it when we didn't know each other very well.
My father just carelessly married me off.
When we first married and started living together,
My husband and I weren't very cooperative,
but, people are very strange.
After a while, his feelings naturally developed.
That's right. Sometimes, strangers who don't get along
Will become friends all of a sudden.
Are you talking about my son, Ding Ya?
Actually, my fate with many friends
has built up accidentally, including with Ding Ya.
I know.
Ding Ya has a playful personality.
His heart isn't settled down.
This shortcoming has brought you many worries and troubles, right?
- Gao Mama...- Hm?
Actually, Ding Ya didn't worry me much,
We...are actually...
You two are actually,
lovers see each other as the most beautiful. (lit. as Xi Shi - one of the renowned beauties of ancient China)
But I gave birth to my son.
I know all of my son's weaknesses very well.
I should actually thank you.
I want to thank you for not minding my stupid son.
Gao Mama,
Actually I have a lot of bad traits. You just don't know about them.
Are you saying that to help Ding Ya?
I can see that your relationship is really good.
I really hope that you and Ding Ya,
can develop your feelings.
And your hearts can
move closer and closer, becoming a pair of loving husband and wife.
Actually,
I've always had a regret.
I didn't have a daughter.
But I was thinking that
if my son get married
then my daughter in law could be like my own daughter.
But you know, my older son's wife, she and I
get along.
Actually, the relationship between two people is just like that.
If Big Brother Gao has a good relationship, that is enough.
I have another hope.
That you
Yi Qing
I want to say, can you...directly
call me mama right now?

I want to say, can you... directly call me "mama" right now?
Can you not stare at me with wide eyes?
Listen to me.
You and Ding Ya have such a great relationship now,
Marriage will come sooner or later.
So why don't you just start calling me "mama" right now? So I can be happy sooner?
Mom
I have something to talk to you about.
Actually, Yi Qing and I...
Since you're here now
I'll leave you two alone so you can talk.
I'm going back to my room first.
Mom, what I want to tell you is...
Let's talk tomorrow.
Tomorrow.
I'm going in.
See you tomorrow.
Why do I feel like my mom is avoiding me?
Is she?
Do you think she already knows that our relationship is...
I don't think so.
She was just saying to me that she feels that our relationship is pretty good.
She said lovers see each other as the most beautiful. (lit. as Xi Shi - one of the renowned beauties of ancient China)
And also said that we will get married eventually.
What should we do?
What can we do?
Just keep tricking her.
Then find a day to tell her the truth.
As long as you don't reveal it,
Mama still hopes that this fake act will become real one day.
This is my first in time in the basement of the practice studio.
But, why did you want to meet us here today?
Some of our sets and props are made here.
Large props aren't fit to be put at the rehearsal spot.
Why so bothersome?
Leave it to me.
I'll just contract a manufacturer to do it.
What? Did I say something wrong?
That's right, I just suddenly though of Prince Jing Hui.
Who is he? What does he do?
He didn't do anything, he was only prince
and when the people were almost starving to death, he said, " If there is no rice, why not eat meat stew?"
What does this have to do with me contracting a manufacturer to do it?
There is a big connection.
Not everyone is like you, able to use money to solve any problem.
Xiao Mao
It is Xu Tong's first time participating in our show,
sometimes, she won't understand the situation.
Watch your words, is that okay?
I'm making props.
What? Why are you telling Xu Tong all of this?
None of your business.
Xu Tong, don't mind what Xiao Mao just said.
We always make our own set and props.
For one, we can save money that way.
Two, we can practice our skills in prop-making and set-designing.
So it's like that?
I understand. It's just like Sadhana(religious practice in Buddhism, Hinduism,etc.)
You can say that.
Teach me then, I want to make it too.
You are already a member of our troupe,
Even if you don't ask, I will still tell you to make it.
Here.
For this, we will draw the outline...
♫ Here, fluttering around in the air. Isn’t it great? ♫
♫ Sliding down the rainbow. Hang on tight! ♫
♫ You & me. It’s just you & me ♫
Miss, let me help you.
There's no need, I can do it myself.
I'm afraid you will cut your hand.
I will say it is your fault then.
Go away.
♫ Let everyone on earth envy ♫
♫ A small step from Armstrong is a big step for humans ♫
♫ Let’s take one more step, shall we? ♫
Let me teach you.
Okay.
The things around you are actually tools.
Use this as a ruler.
When you finish here with the left hand,
When you start the first cut, you need to cut until the end.
Or else it will be like the one you just did, coming out in the middle.
Okay.
You can cut it following the edge and it will be straight.
Really!
It is easier to cut with your method.
And it doesn't slip.
Let's continue.
Slowly.
Xiao Mao.
Look.
I think Xu Tong and Xiao Kang..
Could it be his plan?
What plan?
It's that "nobody wants your true love."
Pretend to fall in love with her and then control her.
No way. Xiao Kang said that he definitely wouldn't do that.
That's not possible, so he really fell in love with her?
It won't happen. Go do your work.
Why hit me? You mind it so much.
You still like Xiao Kang?
♫ Taking a stroll all over the world ♫
♫ Reading a book on the rainbow ♫
♫ Wishing that you’ll live in my heart ♫
Your glasses are so dirty, can you see clearly?
Why stop? Teach me quickly.
Or else, if I cut it wrong, it is your fault.
Okay, let's continue.
It hurts so much!
My waist!
Okay,
Okay. I will be at the office later.
If you need me, call my cellphone.
Okay, that's it. Bye.
She should be home at this time.

Cellphone is inside...
What happened?
Xiao Qian! Are you here?
Xiao Qian!
Are you-are you inside?
Xiao Qian!
What happened?
Xiao Qian! Xiao Qian!
Xian Qian! Open the door!
- Xiao Qian, hey, hey! What ha...- Ah!
Wait-wait! Wait a moment!
Slowly, slowly!
I'll take you to the hospital.
Okay. Come!
I'll carry you.
Okay. - Slowly!
I'll count to three and then get up.
Hold my neck.
- One, two, three!- Ahhhh!
Okay, endure for a moment.
♫ I just want to be in love, I want to be dazed ♫
♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫
Here. Put it down.
Let me tell you.
This is for President Xu.
And this is for Xiao Quan, Xiao Kang, the two brothers.
Also, this...
Mom, why did you especially come here to organize when you can organize it at your place?
What's up with you?
I can't be here?
It's not that. It's just...
Let me tell you, I'm not unwilling to organize it there and seeing it necessary to come here,
Because I only bought something for Xiao Qian.
Huh? You didn't buy anything for Xiu Qioung Jie?
She's already an angel, she doesn't need to eat.
Then what about that...
That what?
Let mom tell you,
foxes are not suited to eat what mama bought.
foxes?
The matter already passed, and Xian Qian already forgave the other, and you still call them a fox?
Foxes are very profound. Even if a fox changes a hundred thousand times,
changes into a person and wears people clothes, it is still a fox
If you haven't read Liaozhai, you should have heard of it. (Liaozhai is a collection of Classical Chinese stories by Pu Songling)
Okay, that's enough. My mom is the world's cutest and scariest judge.
Let me tell you, remember to... this...
This is for Wei Wei and your older brother and sister in law.
-Go give it to them.-Alright I know.
I need to do some work this afternoon so I'm going to bathe.
Alright. Go bathe.
Go bathe.
I'll watch the house.
[Yi Xing, this trip went very happily, thank you.]
[I want to say, since my mom is so happy,]
[Can we extend this act for some more time?]
This bastard...
Already said that he was going to clear it up, and is still dragging.
Making me so mad.
Don't be mad, my mom's blood pressure has been high recently. We must wait until her blood pressure stabilizes
to ensure that she doesn't pass out after hearing the news
so we can tell her properly.
I can only agree.
Okay.
But we have to tell her one day. Don't delay it until the next time she tells me
She already determined a name for her grandson.
Grandson?
Be careful, careful.
It feels better than before.
So you got hurt from training for the triathlon?
Sorry, I caused you to not be able to go to the office today.
You mean the phone call I had with Pang Da this afternoon?
No problem, there's nothing that important, and you were accidentally injured as well.
This muscle loosening and anit-inflammatories
eat it as printed and
ask someone to help.
Okay.
I'll leave then.
Thanks!
Hey, this guitar is for you.
To have a good performance, you must good materials.
I look forward to your performance.
Doesn't that mean I don't have a reason to by lazy?
Which means I accomplished my mission.
Practice well.
I'll send you out. - No, sit down, I can do it myself.
Bye!
I should get better before I perform.
Oh gosh!
Gosh!
So painful!
How did it become like this?
Oh God!
Ow it hurts!
Who is it?
Who else would it be? Or do you want me to go next door and tell your ex-boyfriend to help you stick it on?
Oh it's Tian Ling.
Stick it where? - Here.
How am I supposed to stick it on if your hand is still there?
- Ahh!- Okay!
Tian Ling–
What do you want to do?
I just wanted to say thank you. You are actually a pretty good-
No need, this doesn't have anything to do with being a good person.
It is because you were screaming so loud and bothering me.
I came here because I couldn't take it anymore.
What, can't you just close the door to not hear the sound?
Isn't it because you care about me?
Good morning! You are going out? Eat breakfast first, I just made it.
Also, I already cleaned your high heels.
And took down the clothes hanging on your balcony.
I will take them to your room later.
Is there no one in this house that you can control right now?
Sister Xiu Qiong went to film the documentary and Gao Mama is not at home either.
So are you now trying to torture me? (Lingchi is the punishment of dismemberment and the lingering death)
No, I just wanted to say thank you.
Thank you for sticking on the medicinal pad for me.
You already thanked me yesterday,
is there a need to do so much for such a small matter?
No- - Or do you think
Thank you doesn't have enough gratitude.
No, I just want to take one more step in expressing my gratitude.
This again...
It can't be because I stuck on the medicinal pad for you yesterday,
so you think that I am not a bad person, and only a knife with a heart of tofu?
Is that wrong?
I already knew that you were a bothersome woman.
You like to make things up and think you're so great.
After assuming that a person is the way you imagined, you will all of a sudden
say, "I want to be good friends with you"
and "I want to hold hands with you to use the restroom".
And then later, you realize
that this person is not like you imagined, you become hostile and say "You changed, I don't want to be close to you."
I never make friends with women.
Hey, I am not that kind of person. I genuinely want to become friends with you.
Jiang Xiao Qian, are you afraid of being neglected and disliked by others
or do you like to have everyone complimenting you?
Or do you think that everyone wants to be friends with you?
I didn't...
Let me advise you.
Not everyone will like you.
Breakfast, you deal with it yourself.
What's with her?
Why is this her reaction to me expressing my gratitude? Saying so much...
- Hey!- Hi!
Not bad, you improved.
Thanks. Why did you end work so late today?
Yeah, for tomorrow's meeting,
I wanted to finish up a part at work so that I can relax when I have fun.
That's true.
How's your waist? Is it a bit better?
It is better! The doctor's medicinal pads are really effective.
It doesn't even hurt when I do this. -Hey! It is best not to move so much, or else you may get injured.
Here.
You practicing so diligently,
Is it because you are scared you will make a mistake at tomorrow's meeting?
I am a little scared of making a mistake,
But I am also anticipating, so I hope I can perform well.
Then I'll teach you another easy song.
An easy song?
What song?
Why are you making this reunion?
Actually, I want to confirm a relationship.
Your face doesn't have clues. Only I understand the feeling of sadness.
