- Episode 5 -
Since you gave birth to her, and she calls you "mom," you have the obligation to raise her.
You can't abandon her here just because she has certain defects.
I'm telling you that she's not. What can I say to make you believe me?
Since you can't accept my advice, then according to regulations I will have to contact the police.
Miss! Miss!
Sorry, I didn't mean it just now. I was just spouting nonsense. Please don't call the police.
We will go home and settle this on our own. Sorry to disturb you.

- Mom- What's wrong?
Mom, are you really going to take her in?
Let's find a place to settle down first. We will think of a solution later.
Whoa.
It stinks. It's such a dirty place. How are we going to do business here?
- Aiya.- Seriously.
After we clean it up, it'll be fine. Could that poor car compare to this wonton shop?
What are you doing? It's so dusty.
Once I have cleaned up this place, it won't be dirty anymore.
You're rather nimble at working.
A cockroach!
Where? Don't be scared.
Everything's okay.
It's so dirty. You're so disgusting.
I saw that you were scared, Sister. That's why I stepped on it.
I'm not your older sister.
Enough, start working.
Yu Xin, come here.
Go out and buy whatever you want to eat. Go on.
Yu Xin's not in good health and can't do hard labor. The two of us will clean, okay?
Okay!
Your soul in heaven
must bless us in finding Yi Bei.
Okay? No matter what,
the child is innocent.
Don't you think so?
Yi Bei!
Yi Bei! Yi Bei, come out now! Yi Bei!
Yi Bei!
- You hurry up and come out, don't scare me! Yi Bei!- Hui Jie.
Hui Jie, what's wrong with you?
Stop crying.
Come to your senses, okay?
You...
You said that I will receive retribution, and now suddenly Yi Bei's missing!
It's all because of you. Yi Bei disappeared because of your curse!
Return Yi Bei to me!
- Return Yi Bei to me!- Stop it!
Sister-in-Law, I'm begging you.
I don't want to be lead embroiderer anymore. I can give up anything; I can give up embroidering.
I only want you to return Yi Bei to me!
Hui Jie, get up and talk to me.
Yi Bei is missing. I'm just as anxious as you. We will definitely be able to find her.
Okay?
Stop crying.
Keep calm. I only have one question for you now.
Tell me the truth. That night,
the car that was following us,
was it you?
Were you the driver of the car?
I don't know.
I don't know what you are talking about!
- Tell me the truth. - I don't know!
Tell me the truth! Was it you?
Did you harm my husband?!
Don't say anymore!
Did you harm my husband?!
Don't say any more!
Have you two said enough?!
Will you only be satisfied if I die from anger?!
Take your wife to the room to rest now.
Sister-in-Law,
if you want me to go die, I'll go die! If you want me to leave, I'll leave.
Please return Yi Bei to me! I'm begging you!
Hui Jie! Hui Jie!
I beg you, Sister-in-Law!
- It was your fault. Why did you push the blame on her?- Mom...
Do you know how much I'm regretting now?
I'm regretting putting you both through the competition.
I caused my son to die!
Mom.
Hey! Hey, come and eat.
You did a lot of work today. Eat more, okay?
Mom, you are really great. Thank you, Mom.
Mom, are you really going to take her in?
You already know, all the neighbors think she is my little child.
Let's just take her in, okay?
We are going to set up a wonton shop now. Are you still afraid that we can't raise her?
You make it sound so easy. She won't starve now, but what about in the future?
Let's talk about the future later and take each step at a time.
Then tell me: I caused her to lose her memory. How can I just abandon her?
You can return her to her own family.
How am I going to find her family?
Furthermore, we're trying to avoid the creditors right now. We can't openly report her.
And we don't have that kind of money.
Are we really going to let her freeload from us?
Let's take her in for now. Perhaps, when she has recovered, she will remember her family.
We can send her back then. Perhaps her family will give us some money.
Let's come up with a name for her.
Look at her. Her face is red and plump, just like an apple.
Guo Guo. Zhang Guo Guo. (T/N: "Guo" means "fruit")
Sounds tacky!
Guo Guo. Zhang Guo Guo. Your name is Guo Guo now.
Guo Guo? It sounds really nice.
See? She likes it a lot.
What is your name?
Guo Guo. Zhang Guo Guo.
I'll take you with me, okay?
What are you doing with your luggage?
I want to take a walk and relieve my heart.
Not saying good-bye before you leave?
Are you running away from home right now?
I'm too ashamed to keep staying in this house.
When I see you, I think of Zhi Da.
Mom, no matter what, it's my fault.
Zhi Da's gone. All of us are in pain.
But you don't want to up hold Golden Thread Embroidery for Zhi Da. Instead, you want to run away?
You-- You are too weak! Are you fit to be our daughter-in-law?
Fine. Leave. Walk out from this door and never come back.
Mom.
Mom!
Yun Kai, I may not be able to take care of you anymore.
You must listen to your parents.
Get along well with your new mother.
This way, your mother in heaven will rest in peace.
Aunt, are you going to leave me, too?
I will never leave you. I'm only going away for a little while.
You must study hard so that you can have a promising future.
Also, take good care of yourself. Do you hear me?
Aunt.
Little One gave this to me.
She said this amulet has the ability to let people be happy.
She also said, "As long as you keep smiling, things will definitely take a turn for the better."
Little One is right. You and Little One both need to be happy.
Aunt...
Let me hug you.
Be good.
Start the car.
Uncle, this is for you.
Thank you.
Guo Guo, what did the customer say?
A bowl of tomato and egg wontons.
Okay.
Uncle, this is for you.
The delicious wontons are here. They're very appetizing. Please eat a lot.
Sure. You're really good at doing business, Little One.
Uncle, please enjoy.
Mom, I came back.
You're back?
Sister, what did you learn in music class today?
Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. Mom, make something for me to eat.
Okay.
Sister, just tell me. If you tell me, I'll give you wontons.
Don't you know Yu Xin doesn't like wontons? Please enjoy.
Yu Xin, Mom got you cream bread from the corner store. Try it.
Is it good?
It's average. Too dry.
- Here, have some water.- Sister, here's water.
Cold water with bread? Only an idiot like you would think of that.
Sister, for you.
I'm not drinking.
- What are you doing? Go apologize to the customer! - What's going on?
Aiya. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Aiya, seriously. Sorry, sorry.
Hurry and apologize.
Uncle, sorry. I'll sing a song for you to hear.
♪ Twinkle, twinkle little star! ♪
♪ How I wonder what you are! ♪
♪ Up above the world so high-- ♪
Fine, it's okay. I won't blame you for this.
Thank you.
Here. Take this money.
Thank you, Uncle. Please come by next time.
Okay.
Really sorry!
It's okay.
Mommy, for you.
Little one, you're pretty clever!
Daughter, is it because I scolded you that day?
You got angry, purposely hid, and won't let me find you?
The dyeing compound is so pretty! And the sky is so blue!
The dyed cloths are so colorful, like a rainbow.
And the kite floating high above.
Looking from afar, I know that it's our house's courtyard.
Yi Bei, you like drawing the dyeing compound that much?
Of course. If there was a competition for drawing the dyeing compound, I would definitely get first place.
When there's a chance, we'll give Yi Bei
a dyeing compound drawing competition, okay?
I'll definitely participate in it. The prize must be very, very big!
Very, very big? How big must it be?
Can first prize be one year's worth of seafood pizza?
Okay.
You are such a glutton!
That's right. Dyeing compound drawing competition.
I know that I was wrong, Daughter.
Come back soon. Okay?
Stop punishing me.
Hui Jie. Hui Jie.
I thought of an idea. Perhaps, Yi Bei may come back.
What idea?
Dyeing compound drawing competition. I had promised Yi Bei to help her conduct a dyeing compound drawing competition.
When she hears this news, she will definitely return.
How can you take a child's joking words so seriously?
How could this be a joke? As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will do this.
Are you saying...
Do you think Yi Bei would really come?
No matter what, since I have thought of it, I must give it a try.
We must give it a try.
What are you doing? Who told you to use my stuff?
I was just drawing.
What nonsense did you draw? It's so ugly...
You learned how to draw?
I don't think so. I don't remember. I'll go help out at the shop now.
This dyeing compound's picture seems very similar to Zhang Guo Guo's drawing.
[Youth "Dyeing Compound" Drawing Competition sponsored by Golden Thread Embroidery. First Place wins the Academy of Fine Arts scholarships and ¥50,000 reward]
Drawing a dyeing compound? Besides a scholarship,
there's also ¥50,000 reward.
Sister!
Don't follow me.
Sister, you took Mom's money, and came to the train station.
What are you doing?
I want to go enter a contest. If I win,
there will be a big monetary reward. Then our family can have good days.
You have to keep it a secret. Don't tell Mom.
- Okay.- Keep it a secret.
Hurry up and go back now.
But, Sister...
Go back.
Please let me through.
How come Yi Bei isn't here?
Just wait, Yi Bei will appear.
Guo Guo, come over here.
Your sister left early this morning to attend Erhu (Chinese fiddle) lessons. The teacher told me she didn't attend, do you know where she went?
Sister? She went to a good place.
Good place? What good place?
Sister won't let me tell you.
Such an important matter, hurry up and tell me.
Sister went to Zhenhu for a contest.
Zhenhu? You're saying that she went to Zhenhu all by herself?
Sister says that after the contest is over she will come back.
You rotten girl, is your head filled with glue? You only tell me such an important thing now?
Sister wouldn't let me say it.
Yu Xin, too. That silly lass, going out alone...
What if she bumps into those creditors? This won't do.
Mommy.
Yi Bei.
Teacher, you called me?
How did you think of drawing this?
Sister, look. Red, yellow, blue.
Isn't it just like a rainbow?
How do you draw this?
Look, the tail of the kite is curved. It means that the wind is very strong.
There aren't any dyed cloths or kites around, why did you draw these?
Since this place is the dyeing compound, there should be dyed cloths.
Colorful, just like a rainbow.
Then why is there a kite?
Before, a gust of wind breezed by. So I thought,
if only there was a kite, the courtyard's scenery would be more beautiful.
Sit down and continue drawing.
Other than Yi Bei, no one draws the courtyard like this.
Even the color scheme of red and green is identical to Yi Bei's.
That child is rather ingenious.
But it's a pity that she is not our Yi Bei.
Why hasn't Yi Bei showed up yet?
Perhaps, she didn't know about this contest.
We may not be able to see her again.
They seem to like my drawing. If I get first prize,
then I can leave that lousy place and go to school in Zhenhu.
Rotten brat.
That's not right. I don't even know where she went for the contest or which bus to take. It's useless for me to go.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. My head hurts and I feel a little dizzy. My body has no strength.
Look at you. It's hard for you, right? Where is your home? I will take you there.
I don't know why--
Let me take you home then. Get up.
- And you're holding so much stuff. Slowly, slowly. - Thank you. - Not a problem.
It's just in front.
Over there?
I say. Seriously, you are too skinny. Are you trying to lose weight? That's why you are in this condition.
No. It's here.
Where is it?
Over there.
Look at how skinny you are.
You must eat more. Understand?
Come, I will go in first. Take it slow.
It's okay, I've got it. Come sit for a second.
Okay, okay. Take it slow. Hold on.
- Sit.- Alright.
I'll get you some water.
Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have come home today.
Why are you thanking me? It's good as long as you are fine. Have some water.
Thank you.
Did you just move here? Are you living here alone?
Looking at you, you're probably married at this age. Where's your husband?
He passed away.
It's good that he's dead, not like my husband. Dead or alive, I can't find his shadow, but he's still able to give me trouble.
Sorry. This rotten mouth of mine only knows how to talk nonsense.
I opened a wonton shop, and we have a delivery service now.
If you need it, call me and I'll give you a discount, okay?
Okay.
Thank you.
[Golden Thread Embroidery]
Little kid, why are you still here?
Eat more, okay?
Thank you.
Such a small child, it must be hard on you.
Oh, right. Are the results of the contest out? I really want to study here at Zhenhu.
Don't worry, you are first place. We will provide everything for your education.
Really? This is great. I have really met nice people.
Let's eat. Eat more.
Mom.
This dress was actually for my grand daughter. Seeing that you are the same size as her,
I'm giving this to you. Take it.
It's such a beautiful dress.
But if I were to accept this, then what about your granddaughter?
Mom, we'll find Yi Bei.
Zhi Ming, Hui Jie. You must keep your word.
You must help Yu Xin finish her schooling. This will also bring good karma for our Yi Bei.
I really hope that there are also kindhearted people looking after her.
I got it.
Can we meet again?
Here's my business card. On it is my phone number. After we finish eating, I'll take you to get a taxi.
In a few days, we'll go to Xiping to go look for you.
You guys are so nice.
Where did you go today?
My school had--
Don't lie in front of me! You went to Zhenhu, didn't you?
If you already knew, why did you even bother asking?
This child!
Who told you to go to Zhenhu alone? I was worrying about you all day.
You are such a little girl and you wandered alone out there. What would I do if anything were to happen to you?
Stop nagging. Aren't I back now?
Mommy, don't blame Sister. Didn't she enter a drawing contest?
Shouldn't we care about her results?
Keep quiet!
You went to a drawing contest. How was the result?
Not only did I get first place, I got a scholarship.
The sponsors might finance me all the way until college.
Really?
You usually can't draw. How did you get the first prize?
Yu Xin is really a genius.
[Dad + Mom = I love you]

How long do you plan on staying depressed?
I'm sorry, Mom. Every day that Yi Bei isn't back,
I really can't...
You're a mother, how can you be so fragile?
I've already decided. Starting tomorrow, I'm going to begin recruiting apprentices again.
I'm going to start training amateurs again.
Golden Thread Embroidery's daily business will be handed over to you.
Mom, what you mean is that...?
I've already sent the announcement to the embroidery board.
Starting today, you will be the lead embroiderer.
I hope you can carry on the glory of Golden Thread Embroidery.
Hui Jie, make your life as busy as possible.
This way time will past by really fast.
Maybe in a blink of an eye, Yi Bei will be back.
You want me to be the heir to Golden Thread Embroidery?
Does Zhi Ming know?
Don't bother about Zhi Ming. We still haven't found Yi Bei.
He doesn't have the heart to think about going to America.
Lead embroiderer...
was my greatest wish.
But even though it's right in front of me now,
I'm not happy at all.
Why?
Why is it now that you give me a chance?
Why couldn't you help me when Yi Bei was here?
You all were not willing to help me!
If I knew this would happen,
if I had known that for the lead embroiderer position
I would have to lose Yi Bei as the cost, I wouldn't have wanted it!
I wouldn't want it at all.
If you want to blame someone, then blame me. I insisted on carrying out this contest.
I'm a mother, having to send off my son.
I haven't collapsed yet. We haven't even found Yi Bei. Who gives you the right to collapse?
Also, that Zhang Yu Xin girl
has the reflection of our Yi Bei on her.
If possible, be good to her.
If she lives well, my heart will be at peace, too.
Don't cry.
Cry your tears out today. Starting from tomorrow,
don't let your tears fall out again.
I will, Mom.
I definitely will.
I will stand up on my feet again.
Considering it's for Yi Bei,
I will do it.
For the child.
Mr. Jin, this way, please.
Zhang Yu Xin has very good grades, a very smart child.
Her life is pretty hard.
She has a talent for drawing. We would like to support her in her studies.
She can draw? I didn't realize that; but no matter what,
it's definitely a good thing that kind people want to help her.
Teacher, where's Yu Xin? We want to see her.
Oh, she should be in the classroom. I'll bring you over.
[Students on Duty: Zhang Yu Xin, Liu Hua]
Zhang Yu Xin, today is your turn to be on duty. If you run away again, I'll tell the teacher on you. You can decide for yourself.
Sister, are you released from school?
I already told you, don't call me sister. In the future, don't come to my classroom, either.
Mom told me to go home with you when school is over.
Enough.
Oh, okay. I'll not say anything more. Let's go home together.
Are you a little dumb?
You want me to go home with you?
Yeah.
Then help me clean the bathroom.
Okay. If Sister is coming home with me, then I'll do anything.
Yu Xin, people from Zhenhu are here to visit you.
When the paperwork is done, we'll come to pick you up.
Thank you, guys.
Yu Xin, we'll definitely help you. Goodbye.
Teacher Xu, Professor Jin, goodbye.
Goodbye.
Oh, get in the car.
Sister, wait for me!
