- Switch of Fate - Episode 27
Come, please have a seat.
Rendong, why did you lie to your mother earlier?
Why did you say I'm a distant friend?
My mother does things
without thinking and loves to gossip.
I'm afraid if she knows about your personal life, she will tell everyone.
I promised Qiangwei
to never tell anyone about your circumstances.
But your mother has seen me many times now,
even if you say so, she won't believe it.
I didn't have a choice. It will have to do.
Also, if my mothers ask, don't tell her.
I have faith in Gu Da Feng. He will definitely come pick you up in two days.
Auntie, don't dwell on it.
People who know you, know you as Xian Hui,
A well balanced, good person
and Uncle Feng is very devoted to you.
I believe that you two will never walk in the wrong path.
So she is the mistress?
No wonder she looked so familiar.
Things will get better.
Don't worry. I'm heading back to the pharmacy. If something happens, I'll be back.
Rendong,
my deepest thanks.
Auntie, there's no need to thank me. Don't worry and just settle down.
I'll get my mother to prepare the bath.
Mother, hang on to this money.
While she is here, let's buy the best food to treat her.
Our family is so poor, how can we meet her expensive needs?
Don't talk so loudly! What will happen if she hears?
I have a loud voice, so what?
If you want me to spoil her, than you can both leave.
You were fine just minutes ago. What's with this sudden attitude?
I was always like this. Mind your own business.
Don't bring those kinds of people in here.
Come on, you're the best.
You know I need to go to the pharmacy, so you help her.
Prepare a bath, so she can wash up.
I don't have time!
If that's the case, I'm taking back the money.
Fine! For the money,
I'll lend you a hand.
Sounds good. I'll grab a few change of clothes for Father.
Fine, fine, fine. Just go.
I'm leaving then. Okay.
How come I'm such a failure?
Why am I preparing a bath for Fang Cheng's woman?
Fang Cheng is so weird. There are so many women
and he has to go after the annoying one.
It's baffling.
I think I should...
That time, you said I was pretty, too.
My looks don't lose to other women.
Mother, why are you talking to the pot of water?
Its nothing...
Rendong, tell your father to come back tomorrow.
We're almost out of money. Why is he still working?
I understand.
Mother, please take good care of my friend.
Yah, I know.
- Then I'm leaving. - Yeah, go.
- Go, go. - Bye, Mother.
Why did I promise to take care of her?
Why am I still here boiling water?
Surprise...
Father!
Qiangwei, it's late. Why aren't you in bed?
Father, there is no need for you to look for Auntie.
Why?
I passed Rendong on the street.
She settled Auntie in their home.
That's good. That's good.
Qiangwei, about tonight... I'm worried about you.
Why are you being so polite to me, Father?
I really believe in Jingyi.
I know that she and Uncle Fang won't do things together.
Don't be so gullible and believe everything Grandmother says. Don't misunderstand.
I won't get suspicious, but
right now, I don't know how to explain it to your grandmother.
Don't worry, Father.
If there is a chance, I'll persuade Grandmother.
And also our profession, I...
will go to medical school, and study hard,
and nicely take care our Qingyuantang.
Good.
I can finally breathe after your words.
Its late.
Go to bed early.
Father, it's so late. Don't go.
Rendong's mother is a huge gossip.
If you head there this late, she will spread rumors.
Then the whole village will know about our secret.
Fine, then I'll go tomorrow.
Let's go.
What's that? Why don't you wash your face first?
Thank you.
Why do you keep staring at me?
- Ah... I'm so mad, that Fang... - What?
No, it's nothin. Get some rest.
Mom, are we really moving?
But we have only these cousins.
If we leave, where can we go?
Also, we just opened the soy sauce factory for business
and now we're closing it?
To be honest, ever since Rendong and Zhengding have been working in the pharmacy,
I always wanted to leave.
And I already found our new home.
Even though it's not as nice, it's got a big yard.
It's good enough for the two of us,
and we can rent the spare rooms and earn some extra money.
but what will happen to the soy sauce factory?
About that, I also find it regrettable.
Why did they get everyone to leave the factory for now?
If your aunt really leaves the factory,
I can't manage the factory by myself.
And the factory has been making nice profit recently.
Mother, how about this?
Why don't you go reconcile with Aunt?
No way!
If she doesn't accept it, what about my pride?
Aunt is someone who takes profit seriously.
She won't want the factory to close.
Let's not worry about the money.
This one time thing, don't be so serious.
You kids will never understand these adult matters!
Let's go.
I put in so much effort trying to convince her, but we're still moving?
I told you, I am busy. I haven't finished recording the money spent.
Just sit down.
Why are you being so suspicious? What is it?
I had an argument with Ronghua.
She even threatened to leave the soy sauce factory.
Go help me convince her.
What's wrong with you two? You were fine. How come you're arguing again?
She's your sister. She is scared of free labor. I won't lend her money, so she wants to move out.
I said no, so she got mad.
Fugui, she's your sister.
Only you can solve this.
How many times have I done you a favor?
You two are so unbelievable.
You guys argue about every little thing.
Do you finally regret it?
Come on, Fugui, just help me!
Only you can be the mender of us two.
Come on. I beg you!
- Come on, Fugui, Fugui... - Okay, fine.
I'll see about it.
It was Ronghua's fault from the beginning, she doesn't use logic.
What do you mean?
I haven't even left and you're badmouthing me?
How can you be my brother's wife? You like it when the world goes crazy?
No. It's not like... There's nothing wrong in what I said.
You're doing this because I didn't lend you money.
You are always so harsh and unkind. I also do not expect you to borrow me money.
Why are you even talking to me about this?
You think you're so generous, living at our house for so many years.
You never treated me to a meal or bought me clothes.
Okay! Okay! Stop! You should talk less.
Ronghua, you talk less, too. Listen to your older brother.
She asked me to help you and her reconcile.
Yeah, yeah.
Auntie, my mother also wants to reconcile,
but this is just a one-time misunderstanding.
I don't believe she is that kindhearted to want to reconcile.
Believe whatever you want. I would like to see you making a profit one day...
You talk less.
I've always known you looked down on me, being so proud.
Let me tell you, if you didn't marry my nice older brother,
I believe your state wouldn't be as good as mine.
Nonsense!
If your brother gets to marry me, he's a lucky man.
If it wasn't for my family, what state would your family be in?
Yeah! That's right.
I'm not like you. I didn't get kicked out.
That's too much.
If you weren't my brother's wife, I would rip off your mouth.
You want to fight? Get over here!
Stop!
Stop fighting! What are you doing?
We're all family. There's no point in fighting like this.
There's no point! Why still fight?
Lu Yao,
grab the luggage. We're leaving!
- Mom, stop being so rash. - I told you to carry them. Go!
Aiya! Ronghua, there's no need to listen to your mom.
No, listen to me. What are you doing?
We're a family. What is the point of this drama?
I never wanted this!
I've already decided, so don't stop me.
- Good! Let her go, best if you never come back. - Say a little less, please.
I don't want to see you, either!
Big brother, I live just two streets down.
- If you have time, come visit. - Okay.
But your wife doesn't need to.
You love to make yourself important.
No matter what happens I won't visit.
Okay, stop talking so much. Ronghua,
Ronghua, Ronghua! Don't
Aiya, just rest! Let her go.
What do you mean, let her go?
It's their own fault.
Hongli!
Earlier, you told me you wanted to nicely, properly reconcile,
but now that things have gotten this big, we can't even see each other.
It's not me. Your sister doesn't forgive.
Did you show mercy? Did your words have mercy?
What are you looking at? They already left!
Look!

She said herself she wanted to reconcile, but she still acts this way.
Come, come, let me.
Mom, we talked about this. Why can't you just let the money go?
Reconcile with Auntie. Why did you get angry again?
Did you not see the way she acted?
I'm so angry I could die. How do I reconcile then?
It's fine. I remember the soy sauce recipes.
No biggie. We'll start making soy sauce when we have a little more money.
- But... - Let's go!
You scum! What are you doing here?
You have the guts to come here?
I want to tell you I'm sorry.
I misunderstood you the other day. I found the money.
So here 's the record for you.
You think this is all it takes for me to forgive you? I was so embarrassed.
I could beat you do death, you filth.
Okay, okay, stop!
Do whatever you want.
What I want? I...
I will definitely get back what you owe me! I won't forgive you.
What are you guys doing? Never seen someone move?
Moving? Let me help you.
Who wants your help anyway?
Lu Yao, why don't you talk with manners?
- Young man, you want to help? - Yeah.
Wait a bit.
Here, take these. Thanks for your hard work.
Hey... Oh and these.
Oh, okay.
Come, come.
Don't worry.
Make sure to follow. Quickly.
If you don't understand, come find me.
- You go ahead. - Okay, you.
Zhengding...
Qiangwei, what happened? Why are you crying?
Auntie got kicked out by Grandmother. I don't want to go home.
Grandmother kicked out Jingyi? Why?
It's all because of a misunderstanding.
If it's a misunderstanding, it can be understood. Your grandmother favors you the most.
Let's go. I'll walk you back.
I'm not going back.
Not going back? That's not allowed. Your family will be worried.
What? Why aren't you comforting me, but telling me to go?
- I regret coming to find you. - Qiangwei,
I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.
Let's go. I'll take you somewhere.
- Go where?
This greedy bastard.
Don't move.
Why are you here?
Come with me quickly.
Do you know what Chen Zhending and Qiangwei are doing?
- Doing what? - Stop thinking. Let's go first.
What are you doing? I have an appointment.
You can do that later. Let's go.
What is it? I'm not going.
What are you standing there for? Get on!
- Sit tight. - Why are you so weird?
We're here. Wow!
Right here.
Look. It will cheer you up.
Did you see that? Did you?
It's normal. Why did you bring me here?
I thought something bad happened.
So boring. Wait.
Don't go. What are you doing?
What am I doing? I'm going back.
Wait a bit. Oh, I understand now.
Is it because of them, your heart hurts?
What makes me unhappy?
Those two are supposed to marry.
The two of them together is perfectly normal.
Is it? I'll tell you, Chen Zhending
is playing with your feelings.
He likes Qiangwei, not you!
What do you mean, toying with me?
We're just friends.
Liar, you liked him from the start.
Stop talking nonsense!
Me talking nonsense?
I'll tell you, I saw you the other night.
What? Huh? Say it.
I saw you two talking deeply.
What do you mean?
Meaning? You still need to ask? You guys were kissing.
You've gone too far.
Stop hiding it, I saw it. How can that not be the truth?
You saw it? I do everything conservatively.
Stop making up stories or I'll get mad with you.
Get mad then, I'll see when you start to regret it.
You don't regret it, either!
Oh, right.
It's a far way back. There's no way she'll make it.
No, I have to take her back.
Let me take you back. Stop walking.
No need.
Okay, okay. I was wrong, I apologize. Forgive me, please.
You go ahead. No need to wait for me.
If I don't take care of you, who will?
Han Chong, I'm telling you. In the future, keep your nose out of my business.
Stop caring? I'm too lazy for that, anyway.
What's so good about her? You!
I'm so mad!
Come, come.
It's right here. Not bad, eh?
Quite nice. Where do I put your luggage?
That's my room, that's Lu Yao's room.
- Put all of them inside, okay? - Got it.
Let me help you. Nope.
Girl's can't lift heavy things! You'll ruin your figure.
Mom, he's tired.
Moreover, you shouldn't do things like this to other people.
He said he wanted to help. I didn't force him.
Oh, yeah, where did you guys meet?
Him and me? Let's not talk about it.
I always thought he was a bad guy.
I didn't think he would be this nice.
He doesn't seem half bad.
Do you know what their family does?
I think they own a record shop.
Record shop?
Then they're rich.
Daughter, you've got good eyes. You found a good husband.
Mother, what are you talking about? We don't even see each other much.
So what? What's important is,
he is a good person from a good background.
If you guys move on to the next stage, maybe they will even finance the soy sauce factory.
What are you talking about? Stop it!
What's bad about that? A big girl has to marry.
- I will think of something. - Nonsense!
- Stop it. - Hey, this luggage...
is moved, do you need anything else?
No, no, Thanks for your hard work today.
Why so formal?
Oh, I think there is a western restaurant nearby. I'll treat you to a coffee.
Coffee? Hey...
No need.
Don't worry, no need for formalities. Let's go.
We're really going?
Let's go.
Welcome, please go in.
You head in first.
No, you first.
You worked hardest, you first.
Yeah, you first.
I've never been in a western restaurant to drink coffee.
This situation...
Don't be so formal, just head in.
Okay.
Wait.
Mom, I've never been to such a place,
and, I've never drank coffee. Why did you choose this spot?
Even this you don't understand? He owns a record company.
He's so well off, so we can't seem lowly.
But there are a lot of rules in a western restaurant.
Do you know what those are?
Don't worry, we'll do as he does.
But...
Aiya, let's go.
What do you think of this place, young man?
Not bad.
I come here often.
But I never thought this restaurant would open so quickly.
I knew you would like it.
We're also attracted by the neighbourhood here, that's why we moved.
Really? That's good.
Hi, there. The cakes you ordered...
Thanks.
Coffee will be here in a bit.
Don't worry, eat.
I don't know how to use a fork and knife, I'll follow them.
Quickly, eat!
But I'm not hungry at this moment.
You first.
Then I'll go ahead.
Mom,
Use these.
Why aren't you using them?
Sorry, I was so hungry I forgot.
Don't care too much.
Don't worry, no big deal.

This cake is great, but what Lu Yao makes it way better.
- Our Lu Yao is the best in the kitchen, if someone were to marry... - Ow!
What happened?
Nothing...
I was just thinking that what Lu Yao can make
is much better than this.
Hello, here's your coffee.
Please enjoy.
Why is the coffee so dark? Is it badly made?
Yeah, Waiter.
Look at this.
What's wrong with this? Why is it this color?
Coffee is this color.
It is? Oh!
Yeah yeah.
This coffee is just this color.
The coffee here might be different from where you're from.
So try it. See what it's like.
What happened? Mom, are you okay?
Why is this coffee so bitter?
Oh, this...
Add some sugar and it won't be bitter anymore.
Okay, add sugar.
Hey, you!
You put the sugar in the coffee.
Put it in coffee?
I know that? What you talking about?
I was just testing if it's sweet.
So sorry, Lu Yao.
Lu Yao?
Si, you have to pay.
I pay?
You're so embarrassing!
Lu Yao! Lu Yao! Lu Yao!
Lu Yao, open up!
Lu Yao!
If you have something to say, say it out here.
Lu Yao! Open up!
Woah, so many people!
Why isn't Rendong back?
Rendong! Rendong!
You're over here?
What are you doing here? Huh?
What happened to your foot?
Let me see!
What are you doing?
No! I must...
No need. What if someone sees?
Who cares? You sprained your foot. Can I stand by and not do anything?
Look here, it's swollen.
It must hurt a lot. I'll give you a massage.
Why are you so careless?
My heart hurts so much.
I'm sorry I left you behind.
I was thinking, why do we always argue ever since we were little?
Now that we're grown up, we still argue. As if we can't ever not.
It's quite interesting.
I think, why don't we just stop fighting in the future?
If you can do it, I promise I'll do it as well.
I can definitely do it.
Then I'll take you home.
- Come, let me. - No, I'll do it.
I'll do it.
You wait for me.
Rendong, get on.
Be careful.
We're here. Go back now.
Thank you, I'm feeling much better.
If you're feeling better,
then resolving the misunderstanding will be your job.
I'll try my best.
Close your eyes.
- What? - Close your eyes!
Close your eyes!
The book said if we're not close,
it's not wise for you to do this.
It's always like this in the movies.
And kissing is respect.
I don't think it's bad.
Please go inside quickly. I'll be leaving.
I made noodles, eat.
Thank you.
But... I'm not hungry right now.
What? It doesn't fit your taste?
No, I'm really not hungry.
When I'm hungry, I'll definitely eat it.
Then are you going to stay here for a while?
Sorry for your inconvienice.
It's nothing.
Just pay the rent.
I'm sorry.
Because I left too hurriedly,
so I didn't bring money.
You didn't bring money?
I don't believe you.
Don't worry, once i get my money, I'll definitely pay you.
Aiyo, you really didn't bring money?
Then I'll keep your earrings for now.
Don't blame me, we're not in the best place.
One more person means we have to spend more. I can't do anything about it.
I understand. Sorry for bothering you.
But don't worry, I'll pay the rent when I get my money.
But I'm very curious, who exactly are you?
What made you leave your home to come to live here?
I...
Mother, I'm hungry.
Hungry? All you know is to eat.
Here, take this.
It's a guest's food, you can't eat it.
What are you doing? Here!
Aiyo.
Don't be so easy.
Our house doesn't raise freeloaders.
After you finish, you have to get water.
What are you doing just standing there? Follow me.
Mom, why are you making me starve?
I'm not starving you.
Look, plenty of food.
Wow, so much good food!
Okay.
Aiyo, treating your daughter.
You're so nice to your daughter.
Be more quite, please.
Good, right?
Mom, I heard Sister
tell you to take care of our guest.
Aiyo, you hear all sorts of things.
Eat your food and stop nagging.
Is it good?
Eat more if you like it.
After you're done, wipe your mouth so they won't see.
It's good.
Jingyi?
Gu Feng?
Who made you do this?
Why are you here suffering?
Jingyi, I made you suffer.
No, I was unlucky ever since I was born.
I used to do a lot of physical labor when I was young.
No. I never made you do these things ever since you married me.
Suffer and work hard.
You never did.
Ever since I married you,
you were always good to me.
Caring for my everything. Taking care of me.
Jingyi, don't talk like that.
I feel bad now.
But it's no use.
I hope you don't blame Mother.
I will persuade her to let you back home.
Why would I ever blame Mother?
To you, to your mother,
to your whole Gu clan,
I have no ill feelings toward you.
If you will believe me, then it's enough.
I believe you
but
I've wronged you.
You see,
you've gotten skinnier in just two days.
I'm okay.
I'm really okay.
But you.
Look at you. Your cheeks are hollow.
You have to take care of family business
and also take care of the ill.
I'm really worried about you. I'm worried that your body
can't handle it.
I'm also worried about you, suffering like this.
Without you by my side,
I can't even get a good night's sleep.
You can't? Your body is the most important.
When the day comes that your mother's anger passes,
I'll return immediately.
Do you blame me for not standing up to my mother?
Dummy, why would I blame you?
That time, your loyalty to your mother made me like you more.
If you don't respect your mother, it's no good to me.
For me to have such a magnificent wife,
it's my good fortune.
But you are laughed at by people all over.
Think about yourself more.
Let's go, I'll settle you in at some other place.
No need.
Rendong's mother is very good to me.
These days, please take care of your mother.
Mother is well.
She takes the medicine and needs to rest.
But I'm worried about you.
I really can't rest easy knowing you are suffering and being laughed at.
Don't worry, I'm very well.
This time around, you came. Is it because your mother fell asleep?
Please go back.
Let me stay with you a little longer.
You must go back.
Mother's body is not well. You need to take care of her.
Go quickly.
Okay, I'll go.
You must take care of yourself.
Go.
Mother.
Weren't you unwell and resting in your room?
Looks like you are heading out.
Yeah, I made an appointment with Meiren
to allow you to have a second wife.
