I'm home.
Yan, look who's here?
You're home, Yan?
Mom?
A mother-in-law is the natural enemy of a daughter-in-law.
And your sister's case is at the most extreme level.
Does Chiu know you've come to Hong Kong?
Mom, where did you go so early in the morning?
I've just gone to Zhongshan with my friends for a couple of days.
I'll wire you some money later.
Check into a nicer spa hotel there and enjoy yourself.
I need to catch a bus now. Call you later. Follow the taxi ahead.
What's wrong with you? You followed me?
If I hadn't followed you, how would I have found out
that you leave home early and come home late?
You don't do what a mom should. And you're even unfaithful.
What do you mean I'm unfaithful?
The photos are evidence. Look.
You're so intimate with that man. You two must be having an affair.
We were talking business.
What kind of business? Did Chiu move his factory to Hong Kong?
He's a client of my renovation company in Hong Kong.
Your renovation company? When did you set up such a company?
Didn't Chiu tell you?
No. He said you were staying here to deal with your dad's will.
You just help out a bit in your friend's shop.
That Mui Chiu. I don't know why he kept this from you.
But everything I do is decent and proper. It's not what you think.
You can't even manage your own family.
You're a woman. Why do you need your own business?
You've abandoned your husband and your daughter. Chiu is all alone.
You brought your daughter here. But you ignore her.
You leave her to your younger brother
so she doesn't get anything good to eat.
And you flirt around with men.
What do you mean flirt around?
Why are you talking so loudly? Aren't you afraid they'll hear?
Then you shouldn't say something so nasty.
Actually Chiu is very supportive. He wants me to do what I love.
This is between the two of us. I don't care what other people think.
And I don't want to know.
Chiu is my son. His life is my business.
Fei-fei is my granddaughter. She's my business too.
I won't let you fool around outside and leave the family in a mess.
Fei-fei is disfigured now. I'm going to tell Chiu.
See if he'll still support you.
What do you mean disfigured?
Her ears are pierced. You think I didn't notice that?
She's a little girl.
How could you let her get hurt like that? You're so cruel.
I didn't take her to get her ears pierced.
That's even worse. Don't you take care of your own daughter?
This is the consequence of leaving her in the care of other people.
Fine. My bad. I was wrong.
I really don't want to argue with you anymore.
I want to see how mean you are. You suddenly returned to your maiden home.
Everyone in our hometown laughs at Chiu and me.
You have to come home with Fei-fei for good by next week,
and be a good wife and mom.
You must give me a grandson too.
You're really...
What?
Superb.
You want to fig ht me?
Honey.
Mui Chiu, come to Hong Kong now and take your mom back to China.
What are you talking about? Isn't she in Zhongshan?
She lied to you. She came to Hong Kong. She's in my home now.
What's she doing?
The factory has to deliver a major order in the next two days.
I can't leave. Let her stay there for a couple of days.
A couple of days?
I'll go berserk if she stays here for even one night.
She played the private investigator and secretly took snapshots of me.
She even framed me. There's more.
Why did you keep her in the dark about me setting up my own business?
Shut up. If you don't come tomorrow to solve this problem,
you won't need to say anything again.
Fei-fei, is Grandma nice to you?
Yes.
Would you lie to me if I ask you questions?
No.
Let me ask you, does your mom go out with men a lot?
Well... yes.
What? Who?
Uncle Foon, Uncle Yue and Uncle Yee. Oh... she goes out with Dad too.
I'm not talking about them.
Grandma, why are you unhappy?
There are so many temptations in society. The family can easily break up.
I won't let that happen. I must take you back to China.
Do you understand my intention? It doesn't matter even if you don't.
Just remember that everything I do is for your own good.
This is so nice. I've finished all the food.
If Auntie Kiu stays here for two more months, no, just two weeks,
we'll all get so fat.
I've never had such nice fried eggs before.
You should consider publishing a book or shooting a video.
This is a great business opportunity.
I'm an old woman. How would I know how to do that?
I'm good at that. Stay here and I'll show you how.
Fei-fei, you're done eating breakfast? OK. Let's go to school now. Come on.
So early? You'll need to wait outside the school when you get there.
What? I have to deliver a document today.
So I'm taking her to school first. That's why I have to leave early. Come on...
Let's go.
OK. Bye, Fei-fei. Hey...
What's the matter?
Auntie Kiu, are you OK?
I keep getting light-headed lately. Maybe it's high blood pressure.
It's OK. I'll be fine after I get some rest.
OK.
Let me help you to the room, OK?
I don't want to trouble you.
Yan, I'm not feeling well. Why don't you stay at home and keep me company?
No, I have to go to work. I can't.
I came in a hurry.
I don't know if I brought the right medicine with me.
I need you need to check it for me.
Dr Tong told me to take cordyceps. You usually do that for me.
I don't want to bother your brother.
No problem. That's easy.
I'm going out to stock up for Tin Sun anyway.
I'll take Fei-fei to school. I'll go out a bit earlier.
Let's go, Fei-fei, OK?
OK.
But I have to deliver the document. I...
Give it to me. I'm going out anyway.
Give it to me. I'll deliver it for you.
Honey, I'll go with you. I'm meeting my friends.
OK. Let's go.
Let's go.
Give it to me.
Let's go.
Bye, Mom. Bye, Grandma.
Bye. You know which school?
Of course I do. OK. Bye.
Bye. Bye.
You want to go out for fun again? I won't let you.
Why are you standing there? Take everything into the kitchen and wash them.
How can a daughter-in-law beat her mother-in-law?
Hey, why is there a cat here? Enough. What are you looking at? Bad cat.
That's so weird.
Mr Kam, we've reached an agreement with Flat 5B of Yau Po House.
The price is close to the market price for successful acquisitions in the neighborhood.
If there's no problem, we can sign a contract with them tomorrow.
Who's the agent in charge of this client?
Robert.
Fire him.
What?
Make the price go down by ten percent. Understand?
But...
If that old fool won't sell his flat, send someone to take action.
Got it.
What about the other flats?
We've already acquired 4A and 3B.
The other flats are occupied by old people.
We're negotiating with them. It should be done soon.
Should? That means it's not done yet.
Actually the Pos of 4B are the most troublesome.
We've been talking to them for a long time.
But they still haven't come to a decision yet.
OK. I'll deal with this family. You focus on the other flats.
I hired you to save money for me, not to run a charity. Is that clear?
Yes. I'll get back to work.
Mr Kam, a Mr Po wants to see you?
Mr Po? Show him in.
Please come in.
Hello, Mr Kam. I'm Po Yan's younger brother.
She told me to deliver this document.
Thank you. You're Po Yue?
Did my sister mention me?
Yes. Please have a seat.
Thank you.
She said you're in the investment profession
You're good at doing the math.
You can anticipate market trends correctly too.
But something unexpected happened recently.
So you're out of work for the time being.
Bad news travels fast.
You shouldn't say that.
If you haven't found a job yet, would you like to work in my company?
What can I do in your company?
The investment department.
But I'm sure you might want to try other departments.
What about the real estate department?
It's just buying and selling and doing calculations.
I'm sure you can manage.
But I don't have any experience in that. I'm afraid I won't be of assistance to you.
Experience? I don't believe in that. I believe in one's brain. How about this?
I'll pay you what you used to make in your former company.
We'll adjust it after probation. How about that? Does that sound fair to you?
Well?
I don't mean to rush you. You can sleep on it.
OK. Thank you for your offer, Mr Kam. I'll go now.
Thank you.
OK. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
Take your time.
OK.
Trust me. This is a very reasonable price.
Do you know both 5B and 4A upstairs have already sold?
If there's a compulsory sale later, you won't be able to bargain anymore.
They'll give you a lower price.
Where will I live after I sell the flat?
You'll have money after you sell your flat. You can live anywhere.
I love this flat. I don't want to sell it.
Look at your flat. It's so rundown. There could be flooding or fires.
You don't want to die in a fire when you're asleep, do you?
Look, if you want a peaceful life, sign the sale and purchase agreement.
Don't try and scare me.
What do you mean scare you? It's true.
Lots of old women have been killed in fires in similar buildings.
I'm just trying to help you. Come on. Sign it.
Granny Yeung, don't open the door.
Hey, who are you?
Granny Yeung, you want to sell your flat?
I don't. I don't want to move out. But he said...
You hear that? She doesn't want to sell her flat.
You want to buy this flat for $4 million?
Don't try to fool the old lady. Get lost. Don't threaten her again.
You say I threatened her? How did I threaten her?
And we're offering the market price.
What a lie! No wonder you work for what? Vulture Group?
Get lost or I'll call the police.
Fine. I'll come talk to you again later.
You still have the guts to come back?
Granny Yeung, if those bad guys come again, don't open the door for them.
What are you doing? Hot oil treatment?
At least you recognized me. It's a long story. My mother-in-law...
What?
Hey, you're Yan's friend? I'm her mother-in-law, Chiu's mom.
You can call me Auntie Kiu.
Hello, Auntie Kiu. I'm Chan-Chan. Yan and I run a company together.
So you're Chan-Chan.
Hey, she's your so-called long story?
What do you think?
Hey, what's the matter? Something happen in the shop?
Yes. You forgot to sign this stack of invoices.
Let me see.
I need to start work in a hurry.
Right. Give me a pen.
Pen...
I'll get it. Wow, you scared me, Mom.
What are you two discussing so secretively?
We weren't being secretive.
Mom, if you're not feeling well, why don't you rest in the room?
In the room?
Yes...
What if you sneak out? I was in the bathroom just now.
There's so much mildew on the bathtub. How can anyone use it?
I'll scrub it later.
There's so much dust in the ventilation fan.
My nose was so uncomfortable as soon as I went inside.
You had better not wait here.
Yan, you don't want your friend to get sick, right?
Don't make her breathe in the polluted air here.
Right. There's no point.
Come on. Hurry and sign the invoices. Then I'll be out of here.
OK.
Where's the pen?
You looking a pen.
Hey, that's Chubby.
It's that bad cat again. Who keeps this cat?
Ignore the cat. He's a stray. But he's nice.
Stray cats carry lots of germs. Let me throw it out.
Stop it, Auntie Kiu...
See if it'll dare come back.
What's wrong with you, Mom? You hit a cat?
I told you I'm allergic You want me to die from shortness of breath?
Chubby is so smart. He'll be fine. Old people are like that.
Don't label old people. Only she'd do that.
If you fight back, you'll put your husband in a difficult position.
I'll give you face. I need a pen.
I've got a pen. Sign them. Remember to suck it up.
Easy for you to say. Why don't you try it?
Auntie Kiu, I'm leaving. Bye.
Bye. Don't come back.
OK. I'll go scrub the bathtub and clean the ventilation fan.
He thinks he's the masked singer?
He's just standing there. He's not singing. He looks more like a masked dummy.
He really looks like him. Yee?
Who are you calling? I'm not Yee.
Hey... Why are you so scared?
Enjoy. Be careful, it's hot.
Hey, Fat Foon.
What is it?
Sit down.
What's up?
I need to discuss something with you.
You do? What have you got for me?
There was water seepage in Uncle Ho's flat earlier.
We found some black fungus in the end.
Yes. We blamed the old ladies for washing them on the rooftop.
The fungus expanded and blocked the sewer, right?
It's not that simple.
Really?
Today, when I went to Yau Po House to see Yan, I passed by Granny Yeung's flat.
A man from Vulture Group was threatening her.
He told her to sell her flat.
Really?
That's why I believe Uncle Ho's case wasn't an accident.
Someone wants to make them sell their flats.
Some fellow tradesmen said that
repossession companies clog the sewers in old buildings
so that people can't live there anymore.
Then they can buy the flats at a low price.
That's just your conjecture. That may not be the case.
I think it's possible.
You heard Uncle Ho talking on the phone last time.
Someone called him and asked him to sell his flat.
You said you wanted to discuss something with me? This is it?
Do you want me to call the police or what? But we haven't been harassed for our flat.
I want you to organize a resident's meeting
and advise the old people to take precautions
so that they won't get fooled.
A resident's meeting? Why do you want me to be the organizer?
Who else aside from you could do it?
All the residents in Yau Po House are all old people. A resident's meeting?
Who would come?
Then organize a carnival. There'll be performances and food.
Then they'll come. I'll provide food and beverage.
People will come because you're providing food and beverage?
Hey.
What?
Will you organize it or not?
Whatever.
Hey.
What?
Hey...
Hey.
What are you doing?
It's all your fault. You told me to add Yee
sol could chat with him and understand him better.
Look at him. What's that? I really don't understand this.
Please explain it to me.
Look at this photo.
What? It's a before photo of Eason Chan.
This is his photo before he took part in New Talent.
A before photo of Eason Chan
and a photo before he took part in New Talent.
What does that mean?
New Talent is a singing contest.
Are you telling me that Yee wants to take part in a singing contest?
Not just want, he's already enrolled in it. But there's a technical problem.
Stage fright?
Hey Yee, you're home?
Yes.
Hey, carry this up for me.
Where?
The rooftop.
Rooftop?
I need to practice later.
Takeout.
You're home?
Honey, where's the soda?
It's done. I've got ice and paper cups too.
I even have a shawl so I won't be cold later
Is there a party?
Yes. We're throwing a carnival for the neighbors on the rooftop.
Are you serious?
An old people's party. Count me out. I'm going to sleep.
Wait. It's good you're home.
We need you to set up the sound system on the rooftop.
Me?
Of course you. Who else would do it?
You always do it for your friends for free.
I charge them a fee.
It's good that you charge a fee.
You can eat as much as you like then. It's to your advantage. How about it?
No.
Fei-fei, it's not my fault.
Uncle Yee won't set up the sound system.
Do you know Fei-fei can't perform if you don't set up the amplifiers?
Uncle Yee, you're so handsome.
Wow...
How can I say no to you? Let me put my things in my room first.
Go. Move.
Yeah.
Hey, Auntie Kiu. Mom.
Where are you guys going?
They're throwing a party on the rooftop. But it's very windy up there.
You had better stay here since you're not feeling well, right?
Right. It's very windy. Fei-fei, I'll go up with you first. Come on.
Great...
OK.
You wait for Yee.
OK. I'll wait for him.
Let's go.
Why do you care about me so much?
I just don't want you to get sick,
and tell Chiu that I didn't take good care of you.
Can we go now?
Yes...
Mom, I made congee. It's in the kitchen. Enjoy.
Let's go. Come on...
Yau Po House Residents Carnival.
Fei-fei, do you know how to set the microphone?
Yes.
I've inspected the building very carefully in the past couple of days.
This building is seventy years old. The structure is still very safe.
So you don't need to worry about living here.
Thank you so much, Miss Chan.
Those bad guys tried to scare me. They said the building would collapse.
If the government issues a closure order, I'll lose everything.
They were so mean.
They said my flat would catch fire easily. I was so scared.
Don't worry. Your flat is fine.
Those people from Vulture Group made up stories.
They said other people would sell their flats
even if we refuse to sell ours.
In the end there would be a compulsory sale.
Actually there are
mandatory building inspections for buildings over 30 years old.
But that has to be done by registered inspectors.
If the building needs repairs, you can ask the government for subsidies.
How would we know anything about repairs or building inspections?
You can ask Fat Foon. He can help you.
What? Me? Are you serious?
Of course.
Brother Po, you're so kind.
You're so conscientious about helping us old folks.
You're such a nice young man. You're so kind to us. Few people would do this.
Yes, it's really rare. So feel free to ask him for help.
Thank you for placing such a high regard on me.
If those bad guys come harass you again,
just throw them out. Or you can ask Fat Foon to help you.
Don't give them the wrong idea. There are laws in Hong Kong.
Call the police if something goes wrong.
Great. All my children have immigrated. I live by myself.
I need to rely on you in the future.
We're all neighbors. All for one and one for all, right?
Great...
Pig's ears? Whatever.
It's so hard? There's no nice food in this shabby flat.
It's this bad cat again? Get out.
Wow why does my back feel so cold?
I feel so uneasy in this flat.
This mean mother-in-law is so bossy. What has Chubby done to offend her?
She's always insinuating something. She's so sinister.
She pretends to be so nice to Yan in front of Foon.
As soon as he leaves, her attitude changes immediately.
Right. Look. She's made this place a mess. Yan will be tidying up all night.
Why don't we teach her a lesson so she'll back off and leave?
Wow... how come there's a strange gust of wind?
All the windows are closed already. I wonder if there are ghosts in this flat.
In such an old building, even the TV doesn't work properly.
You don't want to watch TV? How about some music?
Who's there? Who's there?
Who's there? You lousy cat. You want to scare me?
Help...
Good. He's finally finished playing. If he carried on, we'd all die.
Thank you... Now I'll play the tune...
Grandpa, you've been playing a long time already. Let someone else perform.
What? I just came on stage to play. Why did you say I've been playing a long time?
It's my turn.
OK. You go first. I'll play later.
OK...
Hello, today I'm going to sing "Lift the Mosquito Net".
Kid, why aren't you playing?
Don't perform on stage if you're not well prepared.
You're so lousy. I should be performing instead. I wouldn't choke on stage.
Grandpa, keep your voice down.
Look. She wants to cry. Her parents are just letting her stand there
Don't be scared, Fei-fei. You have my support.
Uncle Foon, I'm really scared. I can't do it
What? You're scared. Come over then. Don't perform.
Don't play the piano anymore. I won't make you learn anymore, OK?
Right. Don't force yourself.
She shouldn't learn how to play the piano anymore
or she'll suffer from childhood trauma.
Let Uncle Yee help you, OK? Sing with me.
OK.
Lift the mosquito net...
There's a mosquito...
Get me a fan quickly...
Drive it away...
You sing very well...
It's good. It's like there's really a mosquito.
Huh.
I always wondered what he was doing in his room. So he wasn't playing.
Open the schoolbag...
There's a pig.
Sleepy pig. Get me a needle...
Make it leave...
Very good...
Come on. Get some food...
There's a mosquito.
Mission accomplished. It may be an old trick, but it's helped your brother.
It doesn't matter that it's an old trick. There are always fools who will buy it.
Anyway thank you very much.
Do you know who that is?
He's wearing a mask. How would I know?
He's your younger brother?
Are you kidding? What's Yee doing?
He knows he lacks confidence.
So he wore a mask and tried to sing on the street.
He's trying to overcome his phobia.
How can I help him then?
That's why I asked you to summon a resident's meeting.
You can help the old people and give him a chance to perform.
This will help him overcome his phobia.
I get it. But what excuse can I use
to make him participate in this old folk's meeting?
I'll leave that problem to you.
This is quite a big problem.
There has to be a good actress even when there's a nice plot.
Did you see Fei-fei's expression? She's the best actress in a leading role.
I told you. Fei-fei can act better than she sings.
Fei-fei is such a good actress, so you two coached her.
Sorry, Uncle Foon. I told Uncle Yee our plan.
It's OK. It's a happy thing. It doesn't matter that you told him.
He'd find out sooner or later anyway.
Don't ever think I'm stupid.
I saw you winking at each other. I knew something was going on.
You're that smart? Right. You're a lousy actor.
My plot was lousy. My acting's lousy too. Everything's lousy.
The lousiest thing is you told Fei-fei to lie.
Look, Fei-fei. Never lie to me again, OK?
OK.
I'll forgive you this time. And you.
What? You want to beat me up?
Thank you, Brother Foon.
What's the matter? You're so touched that you're in tears?
Are you serious? I want to see. I've never seen you cry.
Wow.
Take a photo.
Come on...
Take a photo...
Yeah.
No one's home?
Help... Help...
Mom.
Help.
What happened? Why are you sitting on the floor?
Come on... Sit down. What happened?
I've been lying here all afternoon. No one came to help me.
I thought I would die.
Don't say something so unlucky. Are you hurt?
I'm old. I can't afford to trip. I'll get dementia if I trip...
You're fine.
I'll become paralyzed...
How could Yan leave you at home alone?
Don't be mad at her. I know she didn't want me to come...
Dad.
Hey, Honey. You're here?
Since you're here, stay for dinner. Why is Dad's photo on the floor?
What happened?
You don't know Mom tripped?
If I didn't happen to come back, she'd still be lying on the floor.
We just went to the rooftop for a while.
It was windy up there. So I told Mom not to go up.
I know you guys were throwing a party. You were having a great time.
Auntie Kiu, how's your foot? Is it OK?
Your stray cat...
Yes?
It's so scary. Just now it tried to attack me.
I was frightened. I dodged and tripped.
Chubby is so nice. He wouldn't do that.
Right.
Fei-fei, so you think I'm lying? Somehow I find this flat very scary.
The TV turned on and off by itself. The clock clanged like crazy.
The lamps were flickering.
The lamps haven't flickered in a long time.
Right. Why don't we take you to the hospital for a checkup, OK?
Right.
I don't want to trouble you guys.
I'm causing so much trouble here. I'm a nuisance.
Mom, why are you say that?
Are you accusing me of not taking good care of you?
I told you I'd get you a hotel room.
But you said you wanted to see Fei-fei. You insisted on staying here.
I'm sorry, Yan. I'm sorry. My bad...
Don't be mad... Mom...
You don't need to say sorry...
Sit here.
I'm sorry, Yan.
Come with me. I want to talk to you.
Chiu, calm down. Chiu.
I know Mom shouldn't have come unannounced.
Even though you're mad, you shouldn't leave her at home alone.
She's not a kid. I can't watch her 24
If you hadn't lied to her, would she have come here?
I don't understand why you can't tell her honestly
that I came to Hong Kong to set up my own business.
Now it's like I'm doing something improper. It's like this is my fault.
I did that to protect your image.
I didn't want her to think that you left the family behind.
I didn't. Why do you always think of me that way?
I don't. Mom does.
You always say your mom thinks that. Do you know what kind of person she is?
She pretended to be really open-minded in front of you all these years.
But she's so sarcastic every time she speaks to me.
She's your mom. I don't blame you for taking her side.
But don't think she's really a victim.
Why do you insist that she plays mind games?
It's true that she's stubborn sometimes.
But she's old. You should give in to her.
She wants us to live closer as a family.
Is it wrong for her to want to see her family?
She's not wrong. Yes, this is my fault. I want my own career. My bad.
Nobody's at fault.
Family should be understanding with each other.
They should compromise with each other.
I did. I've been understanding of her. But she's not.
She came here to find fault with me.
Now she's hurt. She asked for it. I didn't hurt her.
What did you say? She's my mother.
Fine. If you hate her so much and don't want her to stay here,
I'll leave with her.
We'll never come bother you again.
Get out. I don't want to see either of you.
Mom, pack your things. Let's go back to China.
Have you come to an agreement with Yan? Are we leaving with Fei-fei?
No. Just you and I are leaving.
We stay or leave together as a family.
Don't make me part with my granddaughter, OK?
Mom, Fei-fei has to go to school. I have to go to work.
We won't be going back to China.
This flat is small. I've failed to take good care of you.
You're better off going back to to China with Chiu.
Fei-fei, come back to China with me, OK?
But I don't want to be away from Mom.
Then ask your mom to come with us.
The answer is no
Let it go, Mom. She's stone-hearted. Don't waste your breath anymore.
Whatever. Fei-fei, go to the room.
Fei-fei.
Grandma, please don't cry. Mom.
This is between adults. Go to your room, Fei-fei.
Fei-fei is innocent. Don't use her as your chip.
I'm not using her as a chip. It's your mom who's using her as a chip.
Don't fight because of me. This is my fault.
Yan, we can talk peacefully... You despicable woman.
Just because you've got the support of your older brother and the other losers
you think you can have your way?
You don't give me or your husband any face at all.
You want me to hit you with a rattan cane?
What are you talking about, Mom?
Oh... I mean... Cheap woman. You flirt around outside.
Chiu, you're so dumb. Do you know you're a cuckold?
Enough, Mom.
I told you already yesterday.
It's not true. You can yell at me. But you can't accuse me of that.
Why are you talking like this? Do you want to make us look bad?
No, Chiu. There are really ghosts in this flat.
Why would I tell everyone what's on my mind?
Whoa...
It's really terrible.
You're even more terrible. You badmouth people with a smile.
You're so wicked. You like hurting your own family.
She's your daughter-in-law. How could you accuse her like that?
Fa.
We're really comfortable in this flat. It's just that someone's wicked.
She's done bad things. So she has a guilty conscience.
She's told the truth now. No wonder Chubby doesn't like you.
Yes. I'm not afraid to tell you guys the truth.
I really can't stand you guys. Not one of you has a proper job.
You don't go to work. You just stay in this rotten flat.
You're all sick.
Auntie Kiu, my younger sister is married to your son.
We call you Auntie Kiu out of respect to you.
But we're not losers.
Especially my younger sister. She's definitely not a loser.
You're so old.
You should what you say in front of your granddaughter.
Of course you guys are united against an outsider.
I don't want to stay here for even one second. Chiu, let's go.
Watch your step.
Let's go.
Bye. Don't ever come back.
Be careful of your foot.
Be careful the stairs.
Enough... don't make it hard on Chiu.
Just now Auntie Kiu said the lamps flickered.
You two must have tricked her, right?
We did that because she's way too much.
We knew long ago that she wasn't as nice as she appeared to be.
This may not have been the outcome I wanted. But Yan doesn't have to suck it up anymore.
Anyway, thank you both.
But Fei-fei seems upset.
Of course. She loves her grandma very much.
One's her mom and the other her grandma. I hope Yan can pacify Fei-fei.
I side with you on this,
but your younger sis shouldn't live apart from her husband in the long run.
Anyway we'll deal with that after the flat is sold.
What?
You're going to sell the flat? What about us then?
Who's there?
You're alone? But I heard you talking to someone.
Talking? I was chatting with Tsun on WhatsApp.
Oh.
How's Fei-fei? Is she still upset?
I called Chiu and asked him to talk to her for a while.
She's fine now. She's asleep.
Good.
Oh, do you know where Dad kept the title deeds?
The lawyer needs them.
Dad never told me.
He didn't have a safety deposit box.
Right.
Don't worry. I'll take a look in the loft.
Wait. Listen to me.
When you're not that busy,
you really should have a serious discussion with Chiu about your problems.
He's the man of the family.
I believe, to a certain extent,
he wants his wife to consult him on a lot of things.
Do you understand what I mean?
Yes.
OK. Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Brother Wah, Auntie Lan...
We were talking about the sale of the flat in my room the other night.
Then Yan came in. I haven't seen them since then.
Where have they gone? They're being tricky.
The records are covered in dust.
That means they haven't turned on the gramophone in a long time.
What are they up to?
Brother Wah, Auntie Lan...
Brother Wah, Auntie Lan, I've bought a nice movie.
Body in the Lighthouse. It's your masterpiece.
It was so hard to find it. Come out and watch it, OK? Hey.
Brother Foon, are you OK? You're mumbling into thin air again?
Who's mumbling into thin air? I didn't say anything.
Do you have auditory hallucinations?
You need a specialist or even a psychiatrist.
It smells so good.
Brother Wah, Auntie Lan, you smell this? It smells so good.
This is the grilled cuttlefish you two like most.
Smell good? You smell that? You don't? Hey, you really won't talk to me?
Hello.
Hey, you came in so early tonight?
Early? It's already 9 pm.
I'm balancing the ledgers. Give me a minute.
Take your time.
It's so quiet tonight.
It's terrible. Hey, how's your flat?
My flat?
Yes.
Lots of real estate agents have approached us.
Don't sell it yet. You location is so good.
There could be developers
that want to acquire the land and rebuild something there.
You'll get a higher price then.
Of course. That's why I told Yan to wait.
Good. After you move out,
you won't be bothered by those two buddies in your home now.
That's not how I see it.
They've been bothering me for a couple of months already.
I'm used to it now. I feel uneasy when I don't see them now.
So they've become your friends?
When you move out later and the building gets demolished,
will you feel really sad then?
No. There's always a time to say goodbye.
The building will be demolished soon after my flat is sold.
Where will they go then?
Nowhere. They'll become homeless stray ghosts.
They just need a home. They can find a new home.
No, they'll perish permanently in the end.
That serious?
They won't see this?
This pot. Almost done. They won't see it. What else is there?
I'll put this in too...
Go ahead... Come on...
Your mom is your mom. I don't blame you for siding with her.
But you shouldn't but...
She pretends to be so open-minded in front of you every time.
She even pretends she's happy...
Look at this photo.
That's a before photo of Eason Chan. So?
