[When We Were Young 2018]
[Episode 18]
Was the last question you guessed wrong about football?
This is the man who wanted to see you.
That's right.
Then you have to pay attention to the grammar here.
I know that.
"Who" replaces people.
The sentence tense is the past tense.
So subject-verb should be in the past tense.
Wanted to see.
Let's go.
This is the man who wanted to see you.
See you.
The study atmosphere is good.
I hope you're not pretending.
Come and have a rest.
Heads up.
I will tell you three things.
First of all, the monitor of our class
earned another honor for us.
Hua Biao won
the first prize in the city physics competition.
Hua Biao,
put it on the honor roll later.
Yeah.
It's not the first time
our monitor takes this good position.
Hua Biao, come here.
Thank you, Mr. Kong.
Nothing to thank about, you earn it yourself.
And,
the college entrance examination is coming.
There aren't many competitions left to participate in.
The best I can do is find one more chance for you,
as well as the other students.
Save the money.
Of course!
Thank you again, Mr. Kong.
The second thing is,
Huang Deng Deng,
the admission results of the Hong Kong ballet have come out.
I also didn't read it.
Adjust yourself for any kind of result.
Huang Deng Deng, don't just hold on it. Dare you to read it?
It doesn't matter to you.
Even I can't pass the exam and neither can you.
It's just,
these movements,
everyone can do these.
Si Tu Er Tiao, sit down.
And the third thing.
Good news and bad news.
Don't keep me in suspense.
I'll get the news first.
From now on,
the school will give everyone three days off.
Quiet.
The bad news is after three days,
the first model test begins officially.
The school wanted to test everyone's real ability out.
It can have a reference for your examination voluntary choice ,
to your parents.
So the school want to have a model test for you in advance.
Let's study hard these three days.
Take positive actions.
That's all.
Have you been very tired lately?
Let's make a long talk short.
No, I just want to spend more time to talk with you.
We have lots of time in the future.
Take good care of yourself.
There must be a lot going on before you get married.
Who gave my son some sweat medicine?
Suddenly become so sweet.
Flower, candy box, signature pen, pin, brooch bow, tie...
That should be all.
Most of the people who will go there are Chinese, right?
You don't have to worry about these things.
Just study hard.
Isn't there going to be a model test soon?
It's OK.
I have asked for leave from school.
After the exam,
I will fly to Japan directly.
My trip to Japan,
have you told that uncle about it?
Does he mind?
Who are you?
You are my son!
You don't need to say hello in advance.
I wanted to tell you that
everyone's life is not perfect.
You have to learn to accept its injustice,
so can you cherish its beauty more.
Don't play it. It's awful!
What's wrong with you?
Are you uncomfortable because of too much stress?
It's OK if you don't feel well.
Just yell to release it.
Oh, right.
Em.
You want a pear
or an apple?
You want an apple
or a pear?
Playing the same song in all days.
So annoying.
I will go out to study.
Don't be.
Studying at home is the best.
There was food and drink and mom and dad at home.
If you really hate the music,
I will go upstairs to talk with him.
What the hell are you playing.
Do you think I'm going out to have fun?
Check it out.
See if I finish it when I get back.
Alright?
It's not that. You can go there if you want to.
Don't come back too late.
Or you may come across that pervert.
Mom, if I don't take the college entrance examination any longer,
I will become a pervert.
Jinx Biao.
This is choice the chemical reactions occur on cu
on the electrode,
or visible in a moment that
point b of the filter paper turns red?
Did they say is device K closed?
Closed.
Neither of those is right.
Got it.
You didn't get it.
Do it carefully.
Think again!
Can never forget the time I spend alone,
with a little bit lonely atmosphere.
So I was willing to travel a long distance,
to find a good friend.
Ten thousand liang of gold is easy to get. [Liang: Unit of weight]
But even one bosom friend is hard to find.
Everyone used to be frivolous when they were young.
Everyone used to have outstanding loves.
Everyone used to have friendship happen among hunger and coldness.
That's my soul mate.
On a night like this,
except for the company of zero music words.
Who else
can help you fall in sleep peacefully.
Where is your lucky rock?
The necklace is broken.
So I put it in the drawer.
But grandma said
that's very important for you,
you can't take it off.
She was talking nonsense.
Jinx Biao, do you think we will be happy?
Of course we will.
Xi, I hope you can be happier than anyone.
Pencil case!
I forgot it.
The draft paper!
Haven't go?
She is packing things.
I tell you,
don't be panic, read the question carefully.
If you don't know the answer, skip it first.
Don't stuck in one single question.
When you come out, don't check your answers with them,
it will affect your mood tomorrow.
Auntie, this is just a model test.
Don't be nervous.
I didn't.
Mom, I didn't forget anything, did I?
Check it out.
It's all there. I saw it. Let's go.
Don't rush.
Here, hot milk.
Fighting.
OK.
Read the question carefully, and do not hand in the paper in advance.
Fighting.
Why it is so difficult?
Mr. director, I want to hand in my paper.
Shut up. Answer the questions as well as you can.
Time is up. The test is end.
Running Yang, it's OK. All the first model test are difficult.
Do you find it difficult?
Why am I asking you?
Do you find it difficult?
It can't be difficult for you either.
Don't ask me.
Not at all. Cause I know nothing about it.
Why are you staring at me? I must fail.
Master Li, wait a minute.
My mom told you to take it to the plane.
It's five hours before take-off.
No need to hurry.
Say hello to my aunt for me.
I wish aunt a happy wedding.
Xi,
I'll take you with me next time I go to Japan.
OK. Good bye.
Good bye.
Be careful by yourself.
Know that!
Don't rush.
Guys, you did badly in the model test.
The day after tomorrow at 2:30 PM
ask you parents to come to school.
I will have one-to-one conversation with your parents.
Come in.
Mr. Kong.
I did not ask my grandma to come today.
You don't have any problem. Let it go.
You can leave.
Mom.
I have a stomachache.
Why are you walking so fast?
You got such a terrible grade.
And you are still proud of it?
Your points are even less than a little part of the money I paid
to repair the toilet for your school.
What do you usually do at school?
I am asking you.
Even I tried it for 100 times, it will still be the same.
If you have to think it's not worth it,
you can take the toilet apart.
Cut the crap! It's already the first model test.
Model test! What is model test?
Don't embarrass me.
I have to tell your mother this time.
Dare you?
You can see.
Where are you going?
Shut up. it's me who paid for the toilet,
I need to experience it more.
Xi's mom didn't come today.
Their factory have a meeting today.
You can also tell me about Li Yu.
OK.
When will Li Yu come back from Japan?
Next Monday.
About Li Yu,
His overall score of the exam was not bad.
The problem is still math.
You can see.
It is a little weaker than other subjects.
I suggestion is,
when he comes back from Japan,
he can go to talk with the math teacher.
And strengthen his math before the second model test.
Or it's quit hard for him to be admitted by the English major
of Bei Qing University.
I will tell him about that.
What about our Xi?
Yang Xi...
The first model test is usually more difficult.
And this is something that everybody knows.
Yang Xi has been doing well recently.
All the teachers know that.
But for this test,
she may didn't judge the question well.
So the overall score is not very good.
Mr. Kong, I
I'm not like her mother who has a short temper.
You can tell me the truth.
Good.
We can discuss it from the choices of university.
As her grade now,
it's still a little difficult,
to be admitted by a second-tier university.
You means?
We will have two choice.
If she gets good grades
before the second model test.
Let's sign up for good schools.
But if not,
my suggestion is
you may consider junior college.
Shi Jun Fang, come to get your return item.
Return item?
Grandma,
I don't know why you're sending these cookies this spring festival.
The recipient was either dead or unfound.
I did not. Who did it?
Didn't you buy this dessert yourself?
See.
Guang Yuan city, Sichuan Province, Hu Tian Ze collection.
Hu Tian Ze?
That's my cousin.
He died ten years ago.
And this one.
Guang Yuan City, Sichuan Province, Shi Jun Jie collection.
Who is Shi Jun Jie?
That's your cousin aunt.
She call me last year,
She went live in Shanghai with her eldest daughter
20 years ago.
She moved away.
Then why do you send stuff to her?
I didn't send it to anyone. Who did it?
May be you did it in random.
Great.
Another one,
Huang Lian Xiang in east of the city.
You wrote it in the back.
Happy New Year to my in-laws relative.
It's too early to call you that.
I just expressed my fond for Hui.
Hui is having a good time here.
Helped me do a lot of housework.
She is ingenious and nice.
My husband left early.
We are orphans and widows.
Can have such daughter-in-law to join us
is a great honor for Jun Sheng and me.
This spring festival,
please allow Hui to stay here,
Jun Sheng has the same idea as I am.
Hui, is good
Hui, is really good.
People who live in my grandma's mind now,
who are they?
Just it.
I will go to the college ranked in the bottom.
Who gives you the power to decide it?
Alright. Stop it.
She still got 130 in language.
You may keep on reading it.
Xi.
I told you,
you should do things consistently.
You've only been working hard for a few days.
Okay, okay, okay.
Don't deliver a speech to her.
I called your brother back.
Let your brother explain you those wrong problem after dinner.
From the beginning to the end.
And do the paper again.
No.
What did you said?
I said no.
You have to.
No.
Try it again?
I said no.
You you you already got such a terrible grade,
you already got such a terrible grade.
No of you business.
Mother's anger could not strike me.
Dad's sigh won't break me.
After all, no one
knows ourselves better than we do,
Knows the determination to make further progress we had.
The moment when I failed,
I still can't face failure after hard work.
Where are you taking me?
Taking you somewhere to have fun.
Nowhere is it as good as Guangyuan.
We go from house to house in Guangyuan.
Door to door.
Those are big houses.
When your grandfather came to propose,
he walked for a long time,
but still could not find our house.
Yang Xi, I can't stand it.
I really can't stand it.
Yang Xi, can you help me?
Please help me.
I can't stand my mom.
Grandma.
The man asked me a lot of questions.
And hit me on the head with a pen.
What is he going to do?
He was just joking.
He was afraid you will be bored, so he was chatting with you.
Do you know him?
My buddy.
That's why.
Take me to the hospital out of no reason.
What chat?
The smell of Lysol water here makes me dizzy.
Let's go home then.
Middle stage of Alzheimer's disease.
At 18,
there is no life or death
no world falling down.
But fate showed us a yellow card.
Is there somebody can come and help us?
You are back!
I won't guess.
What?
Don't tease me.
I'm in a bad mood.
You said,
you always wanted a bow hat.
But I walked around the mall there several times,
didn't see the right one at all.
So I bought you a bow.
You can wear it with the hat.
Do you like it?
Yeah, thank you.
I heard that you didn't do well in the exam,
and quarreled with aunt again.
Okay, forget it.
Xi, you used to have poor performance in study,
and you though that is who you were.
But after Kong Xiao Jun's encourage,
you tasted the sweetness of study hard.
After all those hard work,
you can't think you are not going to make it
because of one single failure.
You said everyone's life
is not perfect.
You have to learn to accept its injustice first
to cherish its beauty more.
I said everyone's life
is not perfect.
But if their is any chance to change that injustice
we will never give up.
Wow.
You went to Japan to learn the great truths of life?
I said it all,
so just admit it.
" Fantasies behind the pearly curtain " is Yang Xiao He Mei.
You taught her to say all these things.
Thank you very much!
What do we have to thank you for?
I'm just afraid you let it go by your self.
This is what I'm talking about.
The last question is correct.
I like football.
I should have known,
you always have liked football since you were young.
Stop watching and play with me.
This is the football match which was televised for the first time on TV.
It's not interesting at all.
Basketball is better.
Football is a hero's game.
I don't care.
I'm going to marry someone who plays basketball.
But I didn't give it to you.
It wasn't from you?
But I know who sent it.
One month ago
Huang Deng Deng. One month ago
This is Mr. Kong. One month ago
This is Mr. Kong.
Is the selection examination over yet?
I am on the way to the selection.
Don't be nervous about it. Show your best!
I am just calling and asking you about it.
I will keep all the papers handed out by the school for you.
Thank you, Mr. Kong.
Then give it to Li Yu.
I'll go to his house and get it
Li Yu is in trouble now.
His mother is going to remarry.
He hasn't been to school for a week.
Hello? Deng Deng?
Mom.
What are you doing?
It's coming up.
Can we go back first?
What's wrong with you?
Isn't that we can...
It's your turn. Fighting!
It's okay. Mom is here for you.
Hurry.
Fighting.
Will you like me?
Would you stop saying that
in this very moment?
I am at least a patient.
Give me a favor.
Let's go together.
I'm sorry.
Finally we can share our little secrets.
Come on, they are all waiting you.
OK.
Yang Xi.
Don't you in Hong Kong?
For the ballet selection?
I just got off the plane.
No one can enter Li Yu's home.
You can leave.
I am here for you.
Are you OK?
You don't have to compete with me to run.
I just don't practice for a long time,
but you still can't beat me.
I've been practicing ballet for ten years,
suffered more than you did.
Shall we sit down and talk?
No.
I will run as many laps as you do today.
Here's where I ended up.
I ran ten meters more than you just now.
You're the best you're the best.
Even if I run ten meters more than you,
I'm better at math,
I am a little more beautiful than you,
I can sing and dance a little better than you,
but Li yu still doesn't like me.
You are better than me
in all aspects.
But stop comparing yourself to me, OK?
I grew up with Li Yu.
It's can't be better if you two are really only
grew up together but nothing else.
What do you mean?
Don't you ever tell me anything
like " You two grew up together "
or " you were childhood sweethearts" again.
You spend a lot of time with Li Yu.
I admit that.
But I like him.
No one else but him.
So you probably know his habits.
But I know what he's thinking.
Yang Xi you really think
Li Yu only regard you as someone grew up together?
No, more than that.
You knew that, right?
We are still relatives.
How about you?
What do you think of him?
We are still relatives.
Are you sure?
Yes.
OK, I see.
Huang Deng Deng.
Does Li Yu like basketball?
How come you're asking me?
Because you know today's Li Yu better than I do.
Football is what he always likes.
Not just now.
She's the only one who would sent you the football.
Mr. Kong, you must help me.
Persuade her.
These years of hard work,
are all for today.
If nothing comes of it, so be it.
The point is that the score is so good,
but she just don't want to go.
Her father and I have been talking to her for days.
But she is obstinate in his temper.
It's so hard to persuade her.
You see the Hong Kong ballet regiment
have made the promise,
that she can go now,
without participate in the college entrance exam.
And she can learn all of these courses,
in Hong Kong.
What a good chance!
But
She insist to stay to attend the college entrance examination.
And,
her score for the first practice exam is terrible.
She may screw everything up in that way.
Mom I'll be there.
I will definitely go to the Hong Kong ballet regiment.
But in next year.
I can't understand you.
You gave up such a good chance,
just to stay
for the college entrance examination with your classmates?
In the next few months,
you have to try your best again.
What are you looking for?
I just want to finish my senior year,
take the college entrance examination with my classmates.
I love them.
I don't even understand,
if you've got the idea,
why did you take the selection exam?
And give up the first place you got.
Is it worthy of all the years of hard work?
Mom, I promise you.
I won the first prize this year.
I'm sure I'll get the first place again next year.
Ballet will always be with me.
Never leave.
But the classmates are different
the teachers are different.
He is different.
Li Yu again?
Mom, I was
just think of ballet as one of my strengths.
I never thought about it.
What will my future be like?
Until there was a Chinese class in the second year in high school.
When we are ashamed to speak of an ideal.
It must be precious
but it must be small at the same time.
Because no one is doing their best
to achieve their dreams.
Those dreams are not worthy to be spoken.
How vague the dream is,
it always lurks in our hearts.
We can't get peace of mind,
until the dream comes true.
My dream is to be a diplomat.
Mom, I promise,
I'm sure I'll be a member of the Hong Kong ballet,
the Chief dancer.
But now I want to take the college entrance examination with Li Yu,
with all my classmates.
I think it may be the last thing I will go through
together with him.
Mom, one day,
we all get what we want.
The adults said,
at 18,
We don't know what love is.
But because we like someone,
and be liked by someone,
we know who she is
who I am
who we are.
It's can't be better if you two are really only
grew up together but nothing else.
What do you mean?
Yang Xi you really think
Li Yu only regard you as someone grew up together?
Yang Xi.
What are you doing here?
Drop by.
Who tell you those secrets
which should have been burred by puberty?
Keep the secrets,
and thank her.
