[My Story For You]
[Episode 31]
Come, sit.
Sorry for all the trouble.
You just got back from your work trip and you have to deal with this.
You already sent out the money to an account overseas.
You didn't report this until half a month had passed.
You were too careless.
Yes.
Last month, another international trader was in a similar situation
but he had sent the money to a domestic account.
Since it was a domestic account, it was easier to handle than yours.
There are a few other online sellers whose bank accounts were also robbed.
Ever since the use of Internet and computers has become widespread
new types of scams have popped up.
Be more careful from now on.
10 years ago, before there was email, this wouldn't have happened.
Your case won't be solved in a day or two.
Carry on with your life.
- Understand? - Yes.
Have some water.
I won't keep you from your rest. I should go.
Rest? I have things to do. Let's leave together.
You came home just to see me?
On my wife's orders.
Thanks.
You can thank me after the case is solved. Let's go.
I'm so sorry you had to make this trip back just for me.
No problem.
I caught you!
I swapped shifts but a patient went into premature labor.
Act more seriously. Someone's watching.
What? I haven't hugged you in a week.
Han Dong isn't a stranger.
How old do you think you are? You're still acting spoiled?
I'll let you two be sweet. I'm going to go.
Is he okay?
It's thousands of yuan. It'll surely have hit him hard.
All will be well after the case is solved.
Will he get his money back?
It'll be difficult but there are ways.
Why are you two hugging out here?
Not so loudly!
All right. I didn't see anything.
See? We were caught.
So what? You're my husband. I don't mind.
Okay, okay.
I want to take you somewhere.
Where? I have to go out in a bit.
It'll be quick. Come on.
- Wait. Where are we going? - It won't take long.
Hubby, I want this.
I was wondering why you were being so passionate.
So you had ulterior motives!
I rarely ask you for anything!
All right, let's go.
Welcome to Zocai.
Hello, I'd like to see the necklace in the window display.
Please come with me.
This is the season's newest Bouquet Series.
Using romantic inspirations combined with skillful craftsmanship
the designer created this diamond pendant in the shape of a wedding bouquet.
It is a symbol guarding love and marriage.
You have amazing taste. You can try it on.
When did you set your sights on this?
Two days ago.
- Here's your card back. - Thank you.
Are you two newlyweds?
We also have our My Story, My Ring. They are custom-made diamond rings.
The designer will create a diamond design
using your story or something meaningful to you.
Does it take a long time?
That depends on the material and design of your custom-made ring.
You can communicate your requests to us at any time
and we will create the design according to your preferences.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Is your friend in China a swindler?
Why would he suddenly say he sent me money
and then report this to the police?
It is affecting me and my business!
I'm so sorry, James.
Since we already reported this to the police
let's wait for their results. Okay?
But I'm being investigated!
I'm so sorry. Sorry. Sorry.
You sure are young and naive.
We've never even heard of this type of fraud before!
Don't blame him.
Don't butt in. That's not even what I'm talking about.
Let me tell you this.
Brothers shouldn't go into business together.
Likewise, good friends shouldn't either.
I trust her.
Precisely because you trust her, you shouldn't do business with her.
Friendship must not be tainted with money.
The closer you are to someone, the cleaner the ledger must be.
Understood.
Why couldn't he have had the same attitude in the past?
I'd listen if you were right.
You've finally grown up and now have some sense.
You should still pay for the goods.
I'll have my secretary make the transfer.
That's not necessary. At worst, I'll just close up shop.
Easy for you to say.
Have you thought about the one who got you this opportunity?
The other party might even think you're a swindler.
What will happen to your friend if you just close down your shop?
Both parties will blame her!
Han Dong, your dad is right. Listen to him.
All right.
Consider it a loan.
James, since we already have the police involved
let's just wait for their results.
I'm sorry.
Hello? How is it going on your end?
Have James check his account for the down payment.
You paid?
You think?
Should I let him think we're both swindlers instead?
Han Dong, thank you.
Thank you? What the heck for?
I'm the one who was careless. I can't make you take the fall.
For better or for worse, right?
I'm sorry for any inconvenience that my mistake caused you.
Not at all. I think we just can't--
Enough already. Check the account.
Once the product is shipped out, I'll be on my way to realizing my grand plans!
Okay, I'll rush the dispatch.
You're done...
A job well done!
I have a mountain of debt. I don't have it in me to be happy.
My husband said you'll get the money back. Don't worry.
Are you a thief? Why are you watching TV without the sound on?
I can't hear it with you talking.
Isn't it over?
Not yet. There are behind-the-scenes snippets later.
If there aren't any, it'll be your fault.
What were you saying earlier?
Why are you acting so sneaky?
I'm watching TV. What else would I be doing?
Watching TV is fun.
So why isn't the sound on? Is the TV malfunctioning?
I'm afraid of disturbing Han Dong's rest.
My wife is so considerate.
My husband is so inconsiderate.
Go wash up. You smell like fumes.
You have a severe obsession with cleanliness.
It's a disorder! You should fix it!
- You should be fixed. - Of course.
By the way, how is it going?
What?
That.
You mean about setting up Xiao Gong?
He's on long hauls every day. He's not always here.
I'll talk to him when I see him in a few days.
The girl shouldn't be the one to bring this up. Get on this.
Okay, Wife Li.
Okay, counting on you.
Chang Gong.
- What's that for? - It's for you.
Take it back!
How much did this cost? Does money grow on trees?
You deserve it, Chang Gong.
You'd better take it or else I'll throw it away. You know I will.
All right, leave it here.
It's so hot here. Why didn't you install an air conditioner?
AC uses so much electricity. Electricity is so expensive.
Oh, right. Didn't you want to see me about something?
Yes, I did. My wife wants to set up a blind date for you.
Do you think I don't have any pursuers?
I know you're good-looking
but if you don't have a girlfriend, you could give this a try.
Since you already have it set up, I'll do it.
- Come to my house this weekend. - Your house?
My wife's orders.
All right.
Four.
- I don't have a five. - Five.
Pass.
My turn.
Your wife is hilarious. Matchmaking by playing cards?
She thinks this saves money.
It really does.
You would have to put in one or two yuan for mahjong.
Poker is different. You wouldn't have to spend anything.
Speaking of which, I need to pay you for food expenses, rent, and utilities.
Put away that crap.
I might be saddled with debt, but I can't be freeloading off you.
Haven't you helped me before? Don't get me started.
You're eating all my hard work.
- Pair of threes. - Come, have some apples.
Thank you.
Here you go.
Pair of threes? I don't have anything.
- Sit down. - Let me see what cards you have.
What do you have?
You have something. Pair of aces.
No, you...
Pair of twos.
Pair of twos?
We're on the same team! Why are you playing against me?
Do you know how to play?
Is something wrong with your eyes? Mu Zi, get him some eyedrops.
Pair of twos?
Here are four twos! Got anything?
Want to challenge me?
- Don't play it. - Four kings!
Winner!
- Way to go! - I can't play anymore.
Count me in.
Shuffle the cards.
You're not playing? It'll just be the four of us.
Come with me. I have to talk to you.
You two can shuffle the cards first.
What's going on?
- What? - Shuffle the cards.
Are you an idiot?
Couldn't you tell your wife was deliberately letting them win?
Deliberately?
Why didn't you tell me?
I gave you so many hints. You couldn't tell?
Why am I dumber than you when it matters?
It's all your fault.
What do I have to do with this?
It's all your fault.
You're actually pretty good at cards.
I play to pass the time when I'm away on long hauls.
- Do you guys want ice cream? - Sure.
Go buy some at the supermarket downstairs.
Okay.
Lin Jin, you know what flavor I like. Go with him.
Okay.
Let's go.
- I'm blaming you two. - For what?
Did I mess things up?
Did you do it on purpose?
I didn't know.
Are those two compatible?
They're quite compatible. They have an easy time talking.
One of them is a vocational school graduate
and the other is a graduate student.
How are they a good match?
What are you saying?
I'm not talking about Chang Gong.
Chang Gong is a gifted scholar who forged a path for himself. Right?
You're being too sensitive! I wasn't even offended.
But you never know.
We introduced them to each other.
In the end, it'll still depend on them.
Xiao Gong has a pretty good family background, similar to Han Dong.
He doesn't want to rely on his family, so he works very hard.
I think he's a good man.
Yes, I approve of him. They're a good match.
- You don't have a parasol? - No.
Then you should wait here. The sun is really strong. I'll buy the ice cream.
- Okay. - Good.
What flavor do you like?
Honeydew. Chocolate is fine too.
Okay.
Want to exchange numbers?
Okay, here's mine.
- 130... - 130...
01982674.
I'll call you.
- Got it. - Thanks.
What for? He sure is funny.
We're back.
Chang Gong, put the ice cream in the fridge.
Xiao Gong.
Put the ice cream in the fridge.
Did you get the ball rolling?
He asked me for my number. He took the initiative.
Very nice.
Isn't he younger than me? He speaks coolly like an older man.
It shows he began working early on.
He's exactly my type.
Look at the decorations in your room.
I think Xiao Qiu's bridal room is more luxurious.
That's because we have no money.
How could you be living like this now?
Back in college, we all knew you came from a wealthy and influential family.
How could I still be spending my parents' money?
Even if I want to, my husband wouldn't.
Doesn't he have a business? He still isn't making money?
Business? He's just working for his parents.
They haven't made money back on the investment
so I'm so poor now that I can't afford to buy new clothes.
I can't believe this happened to you.
What's that saying?
"For the impoverished couple, there's misery at every turn."
Li Mu Zi, you're in for some tears.
- You're clearly envious of me. - No, I'm not.
- You're envious. - Nope.
- Envious. - I have Xiao Gong's number.
You absolutely envy me.
You're not wearing long underwear again!
There you go exposing your leg again! Cover up!
Who wears long underwear nowadays?
Mu Zi isn't.
I didn't wear them today because the weather is turning warmer.
- It's okay. - Mom, we're leaving.
You're leaving already?
Mom, come by to visit when you have time. Bye, Yao Yao.
- Bye. - Let's go.
Come visit when you have time.
Mom, you're always like this.
You only scold me but not Mu Zi.
Of course. Who are you? You're my daughter.
So your daughter deserves to be scolded?
You don't understand.
Relationships between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very sensitive.
There are so many considerations to make.
If I scold you, would you remember it the next day?
It would definitely not be on your mind!
But if I scold my daughter-in-law
she might remember it for the rest of her life.
I don't think so.
Where's my grandson?
What's the matter with you? I already told you we're not having any.
That DINK? (Dual income, no kids.)
Li Ning Feng is all alone. You don't want to give him any offspring?
We really don't want any. We already agreed on it.
Do you think your mom is upset?
About what?
That I'm not wearing long underwear.
You'll be feeling the aches yourself when you get older
but nobody can make you wear them.
I'm scared of your mom.
She's never been mean to you.
Socioeconomic status determines everything.
I'm wholly reliant on you now. I'm afraid that colors her opinion of me.
I hope I pass soon.
You'll definitely pass.
- Get on. Let's go home. - Go!
Hold on tight.
Keep your mouth closed, so flies don't get in.
Let's go.
Mu Zi?
What are you doing?
- Congratulations! - What?
The results are out. You passed the written exam.
I passed?
I said you would pass.
Let's go home. My mom said we have to celebrate.
So early? It's just the written exam.
It's not early. Let's go.
What's that?
Feminine hygiene products.
So what? I buy everything you use. Is there anything I'm not allowed to see?
I need privacy.
Privacy from me?
- Here. Eat this, Mu Zi. - Thank you.
Mu Zi, I'm a good mother-in-law, right?
Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship is the best!
Mu Zi, Chang Gong's dad and I both have working class backgrounds.
Neither of us is highly-educated.
We hoped Chang Gong and Yao Yao could do well in school
so that they could become intellectuals.
Turns out they inherited our genes and neither got into college.
But now, I can rest at ease.
I have an educated daughter-in-law!
By the way, when is your interview?
In March. Both nationwide and Jinghu interviews are in March.
Don't be nervous about it. You'll definitely be hired.
So now that the job situation is taken care of
shouldn't you begin thinking about having children?
Children?
- Okay. - Yes? Good.
Go bug Yao Yao about that.
It's too early to talk about children when Mu Zi is just beginning her career.
Mu Zi already agreed. Don't go meddling.
Do you think I haven't rushed Yao Yao?
Li Ning Feng spoils her too much and agreed not to have children.
What can I do?
The store has inventory coming tomorrow morning, so I'm not going home.
You can sleep in Yao Yao's room.
- I'll sleep at the store. - Okay.
Repeat what I said. Where are you going to sleep?
I... I'll sleep at your store.
No! I'm sleeping in Yao Yao's room.
You're eating an apple again?
Eating apples at night is bad for digestion.
You have a weak stomach. Stop eating it.
You keep forgetting.
I'm a glutton.
Greedy cat.
It's past 10 p.m. Be careful.
It's safer because it's past 10 p.m. There are fewer cars on the road.
You're so nice today.
When am I ever not nice?
How come you didn't look so happy today?
No, I'm quite happy.
Worried about what might happen?
It just feels unfair that you work so hard but don't earn much money.
So you mind that I don't earn much money.
No.
You stopped driving long hauls because of me.
At least you used to have your own truck.
True.
I had a car and then I had a truck. Now...
A bike.
On the bright side, it makes me feel like a student.
All right, go on.
It's good for the environment.
Bye. Go on in.
Mu Zi, come.
It's rather inconvenient to take a shower here.
Just wash your face and brush your teeth. I prepared warm water for you.
I can do this on my own.
My daughter is married, so I don't have anyone to spoil now.
Now I get to spoil you.
Here's a new towel.
I had it prepared for you a long time ago but you two never stayed over.
All right, I'm going to bed. Don't stay up too long.
You scared me.
What were you doing? Eavesdropping?
Very nice. You even prepared water for her.
Look at you.
In today's society, a mother-in-law is just like a real mother.
When will you prepare water for your husband?
Shoo, you.
Do you think there's something wrong with what I said?
What did you say?
I told her to go to bed soon. Children these days like to stay up late.
Will she think I'm too overbearing?
You were never so nervous with my mother.
Mu Zi's living standards sharply declined after marrying into our family.
I feel sorry about that.
You should discuss this with your husband.
I can't make any decisions for you.
Do you think I'll be hired?
I'd have to take maternity leave soon after I'm hired.
Don't worry. They'll never hire you.
That's why I think you should just skip the interviews
if you're keeping the baby.
Why are you worrying about this?
Why am I so unlucky?
Exactly.
You graduated from a prestigious college and worked at a respectable firm.
Then you got sick from working to much.
You then focus on applying to graduate school but miss the deadline.
You pass the government employee exam, only to find out you're pregnant.
Life used to be such smooth sailing. I've used up all my good luck already.
No, I think you got married too early.
You got hitched at the low point in your career.
Now you can't make a comeback.
Can you not be such a wet blanket? This was supposed to be happy news.
Fine. Keep the baby. Xiao Qiu has a child too.
I'd be happy to be a godmother.
Keep the baby? My husband only makes about 2,000 yuan a month.
How much would baby formula and diapers cost?
I don't have an income either. I'd have to rely on my parents again.
Go take a shower.
Don't make Chang Gong foot the bill all the time.
Hold on.
- Go buy some food. - Why are you wearing this?
I came just to see you. My truck is parked downstairs.
- All right, I'll go buy some food. - No. How could I let you?
Mu Zi, don't worry about it.
Yes, just let him. He got a big order and made a lot of money.
Go shower. I'll find some clothes for you.
I'm going to shower. Just take the money.
- You two can keep talking. - Okay.
We'll have a nice dinner.
I bought a lot of delicious food today, even your favorite chicken wings.
I have the day off tomorrow.
I'll braise them and whip up a vegetable dish.
By the way, I bought steamed buns. No need to cook rice tomorrow.
There's something that's been on my mind for a whole day.
I was thinking you were acting strange during dinner.
What's the matter?
It's big. You should steel yourself.
Are you sick?
No.
Didn't we...
I don't know.
Why do you keep everything to yourself?
How could you sit on this for a whole day?
Come, have a seat.
I could keep it in for days and years.
Do you feel anything?
You're so annoying! I don't feel anything!
Do you feel nervous about becoming a mom?
Stop--
I take it back!
I can't just make chicken wings and vegetables for you. I need to cook more!
I'm going to see what else I should buy.
Zhang Chang Gong, stop thinking about food.
It's all your fault!
Do you know I used up all my good luck just to marry you?
My career has been rocky ever since I graduated.
I didn't get into graduate school either.
I just passed the government employee exam
and now I'm pregnant.
I can forget about the interview.
That's not all.
My pregnancy and recuperating after giving birth would take two years.
After two years, I'll have less experience compared to my peers
so it'll be even more difficult to find a job.
Your career also has such extreme ups and downs.
We can barely put together a decent meal.
If we have a child, we'll really have to ask my parents for money.
What? Say something.
No, I...
I'm thinking. What you said threw me off.
I can explain.
I understand everything you said.
But you've been thinking about it for a whole day.
I also... I also need some time to process this.
Han Dong wanted to see me. I'm going to go out.
It's so late already.
I'll be back soon.
Go...
The next time you drop me off at school, don't take your truck.
You mind?
No! It's just a bit awkward.
Don't wear dirty clothes the next time you visit someone's house.
It's Chang Gong!
When we were driving long hauls together, I hadn't even met you yet.
Did you buy the study materials I told you to buy?
I'm really not cut out for studying.
I won't pass the self-education exam for a college degree.
Besides, I don't have the time.
I can't be distracted while driving.
I'm thoroughly exhausted when I step out of the truck.
I don't have the energy to study.
You just haven't set your heart on it.
I survived staying up late every night to study for the graduate entrance exam.
I'm not as smart as you.
Oh, right.
This is for you. You've been studying so much lately.
I heard people say this skincare line is very good for the skin.
It'll make your skin soft and bright.
You found out I like to use Hanhoo.
But don't try to change the subject.
Tell me. Are you going to take the exam or not?
I will.
What's up with you two?
Do you come here just to drink your sorrows away?
Cheers.
Do you know there's a story to pistachios?
When I was younger, my cousin asked me
"Han Dong, do you want to see tiny shells?"
I said I did.
He said he would show me if I gave him my allowance money.
That fellow ended up giving me pistachio shells!
If you guys don't start talking, I'm going to start charging for the beer.
Chang Gong, I don't think Lin Jin and I are compatible.
Why are you telling that to Chang Gong?
Tell your girlfriend.
He paired us up. I should answer to him.
There's no need.
Decide on your own matters for yourself.
You're leaving already?
My wife is waiting for me at home.
What?
Is there anything inexpensive I can bring home?
What do you mean? I don't get it.
Why did I come out? I have to bring something home to explain being out.
Got it.
Make do with this.
I came all this way to bring home beer?
You can get away with this.
Besides, Li Mu Zi isn't that mistrustful.
Xiao Gong, go home soon. Don't drink too much.
Don't worry.
Crazy man.
Is he having some problems?
He was fine when I went to his house this afternoon.
He has a happy and content life. Why would he need to drown his sorrows?
If he had my life, he would have to drink until his stomach bled.
I thought you weren't coming back.
I drank, so I stink.
Actually, I really like kids.
I've decided.
Let's not keep it.
Why? You don't want it?
Don't make it seem like I don't like kids. I do.
But we shouldn't have kids for the next two years.
We'll have kids later.
You said our family is barely getting by, so raising a kid would be difficult.
I don't agree with that.
When my parents had me and Yao Yao, they were poorer than we are now.
Yao Yao and I still grew up healthy.
And...
Sit down.
We are legally married.
There is nothing wrong with having a child.
But you're not just my wife.
You're also your parents' precious daughter.
You graduated from a prestigious college.
I'm a rather selfish person.
At a low point of my life
I used over 100 letters to trick you into becoming my wife.
I'm not earning much money right now but my job is relatively stable.
You're not the same though.
I mustn't waste the prime years of your life
by making you give birth to our child.
Don't you agree?
I can't make up my mind.
This time... you get to make the decision.
Take one pill in the morning and at night for three consecutive days.
Come in to be hospitalized on the morning of the fourth day.
I have to be hospitalized?
For one day of observation.
Thank you.
I'll take you home.
You didn't tell your mom, did you?
No.
I told her the radiator duct broke. I'll go to work in the afternoon.
Chang Gong, are you here with Mu Zi to see a doctor?
Word spreads quickly.
Obstetrics is on the first floor. I saw you two come upstairs.
You guys are done? What's wrong? Should I talk to the doctor?
No, it's nothing serious.
Is it embarrassing to talk about in front of my brother?
Get back to work. I'm taking Mu Zi home.
Let's go.
Head Nurse, what's wrong with my sister-in-law?
Hospital regulations. I can't talk about it.
She's my sister-in-law!
I have to get back to work.
This is hot water.
I just checked online.
You might feel nauseous after taking this medication.
Don't go anywhere, just stay in bed. Okay?
Here are biscuits. Eat a little bit before taking the pill.
Don't tell your mom about this.
Are you afraid she'll resent you?
Don't worry, my lips are sealed.
Don't cook. I'll bring something home.
I have to go.
Come back.
What's this?
I'm taking it.
If you need anything, call me.
Remember to call me if you need anything.
Do you hear me?
I'll call you even if I don't need anything.
Bye.
What's this?
I told you to put on, "Taking care of newbies is everyone's duty." What's this?
We only had one left of the one you wanted and it was damaged.
That's why I used, "Newbie on the road. Please be nice."
- Isn't it the same? - How is it the same?
- It's the same. - Talk nicely.
What do you want?
I told you to speak nicely!
- Chang Gong! - What's this attitude?
You made the mistake and you're still acting unreasonable?
So what if I am?
This isn't over! Come out here!
Young man, my son is in a mood. Don't take it to heart and get going.
Why should I spoil him? I'm not letting this go!
- What did you just say? - Here's your money back!
Mom, I got this.
- What do you want? - Count me unlucky to have met you.
Enough, Chang Gong.
Go back inside. It's all right now.
