[INDO SUB] The Story of Xing Fu EP21 | Zhao Liying / Liu Wei | YOUKU
[The Story of Xing Fu] [Episode 21] Chicken. Where’s the chicken? There you are. Yani! Goodness. Get back here. Get over here. Yani. Aren’t you on a business trip? It’s okay. Don’t be scared. Okay. I’ll put it away. Didn’t Qinglai and Xingfu already move out? Move out? Why? Anyway…
Did you buy this for Qingzhi’s birthday? It must be expensive. Ms. Lin. Did you take the towel from the bathroom? Yes. Yes, I did. This is to wipe the toilet bowl. Put it back. You need to wipe the toilet bowl? It’s pretty clean. Look, it’s clean. It’s no problem. Ms. Lin, tell Qingzhi
That I dropped by. I have something to do. I’ll leave first. Yani… Oh. Look at me. Well… I could tell. Is it an inconvenience for you that his brother and sister-in-law are staying here? You don’t like it, right? Not at all. Qingzhi owns this house. Who he invites here
Is not up to me. Listen to you. But it’s true. Qingzhi owns this house. To be frank, the whole family had to fork out our savings to help him buy the house. Where else would he find the money? I know, Ms. Lin. Good that you do, Yani. Qingzhi made it clear to us.
That the two of you are truly in love. Then tell me, you’ve chosen him and he’s marrying you. Aren’t we one family then? In a family, when one of us is in trouble, the rest should come out and help. No? I get it, Ms. Lin. Then… I have something to do.
I have to go. No, no. Stay and eat. I’m about to cook. See? It’s fine. I have an urgent matter. I’ll treat you to a meal next time, Ms. Lin. What is so urgent? I’m off, Ms. Lin. Bye. When will you come and eat? Yani. Wang Qingzhi.
Didn’t you say your brother and sister-in-law have moved out? Yes, they have. You liar! I just left the house. It’s a mess! You’re back? Aren’t you supposed to be away for a week? So you lied to me? I wanted to come back earlier to surprise you.
I guess it was my own wishful thinking. Right now, you’re not showing me any respect. One more thing. I’m done with the house. Wait, Yani. Let me explain. Mom. Hey. I came home as soon as I got your call. You’re back. Where is Little Dou? He’s outside. His grandpa took him down to play. I see. Take this. Dad. Xingfu. Little Dou, let me hold him. -He sleeps soundly. -How is he? He’s grown, right? Yes, he looks different. My Little Dou.
What’s the matter? What’s with you? Why are you back today? You said it was for a week, right? Today is Qingzhi’s birthday. I came back earlier hoping to surprise him. So why did you come home? We had a fight. Talk to me. What did he do? Tell me he’s being an idiot.
The whole time I was away, he kept telling me that Qinglai and Xingfu had moved out. Why did he lie to me? Just tell me they didn’t move out. Today, his parents came too. The moment I opened the door today, the house was practically inhabitable. It was reeking of cigarette smoke.
They were going to slaughter a chicken inside. One by one. Listen. Back then, when your uncles from the countryside came to our house, they threw their dirty socks onto the sofa. They were smoking and almost burned the house down. You’re exaggerating. It’s true. Only you will get irritated easily. -Who said so? -Yani.
I’m telling the truth. Perhaps he lied for a reason, right? It could be a white lie. That’s acceptable. So why did he lie? It’s about his character. Understand? You… There’s something more ridiculous. When I went to the house, his mother gave me a whole lecture about how their family went through so much.
She said Qingzhi was the one who bought the house. If we’re going to be family, we should do this and that. She kept lecturing me. Like I said, it’s the same. Back then, your grandma also preached the same thing. Before she passed away, she grabbed my hand and held it tight.
She insisted that I look after your uncles and all their kids. Her grandma… She died so many years ago. Are you still bringing that up now? Yes, I am. I will forever remember it. I felt so wronged marrying you back then. Listen up. I’m not letting Yani make the same mistake.
Yani, listen to me. You must not make the same mistake. If you make the wrong choice, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life. The girl is already upset. Why must you make things worse? Making things worse? I’m just telling Yani about my grievances and what I went through back then.
Yani, listen. Do you know what happened to me? When I was pregnant with you, your dad was away for business. I didn’t have any warm meals. Your dad shirked his responsibility and got your grandma to come and take care of me. In the end, do you know what happened? Not only
Did your grandma come, but she also brought along all your uncles. Who understands my suffering? Was it easy for me? Also, your second uncle was working in another province, and he wanted me to get him a transfer. Now, you go and choose a guy like Qingzhi. Tell me. A guy like Qingzhi.
How do you expect me to be okay with it? I can’t accept it. His age… What are you doing? Where are you going? I’m fine now, Mom. I’m going to get changed. Goodness. Baby. Are you just going to stare at your son? It’s time to eat. I haven’t seen him for so long.
I miss him. I want to be with him a little longer. If you can’t bear to leave him, then go back with us. Go back? We came here to talk to you about this. Baby, let your mother eat. He’s a good kid just like Qinglai. Go eat. Food’s getting cold. Let’s go.
Go and eat. Come on. Nice, right? Mr. Wan visited the family and brought gifts. It’s this chicken. Your dad and I brought it here. Come on, dig in. Drinking in a place like this, even the wine tastes better. Qinglai, come on. Qingzhi. Come on, let’s drink. Qingzhi.
We’ve been busy looking for a house. We forgot it’s your birthday. Allow me to offer a toast and wish you a happy birthday. Thanks, Xingfu. Don’t thank me. Your brother and I have caused you and Yani enough trouble. We should thank you instead. But don’t worry. We’ll move out very soon. Qingzhi.
Qinglai and Xingfu are staying here just fine. I don’t get why they have to move out. That’s right. The house is spacious. It’s big enough to house everyone. Dad, Mom. Yani and Qingzhi will live here after they get married. It’s not proper for us to stay here. That’s true.
Qingzhi, Yani must have said something to you, didn’t she? She didn’t. Don’t lie to me. I’m not dumb. I will be the voice of reason. What right does Yani have to be upset? This house isn’t hers. It’s ours. Your brother and sister-in-law only came to you because they’re in a pickle.
Why can’t they stay here? People say, a pica pica with its long tail, marries a wife and forgets the mother. You haven’t even gotten married yet and you’ve forgotten your family. Mom. Yani wants to break up with me. What? What did you say? Just break up then.
It might be hard to find a three-legged toad, but two-legged humans are everywhere. A woman that doesn’t get the realities of life will only become a burden if you marry her. What are you saying? -Qinglai. -What’s wrong with you? If you’re unhappy with me, just say it to my face.
But don’t criticize Yani. Our family’s problem is my own to bear. It has nothing to do with her. Qingzhi. Ignore what your brother said. Yani is a good lady. Don’t let this matter come between you two. We’ll pack our things later and move out tomorrow. Okay? Sigh. Goodness.
If I had known how difficult it is to live in the city, I would’ve urged you to go back. Dad. We have already signed the lease for that house. We also paid half a year’s rent. We can’t cancel it. What do you think, Qingzhi? I respect Qinglai and Xingfu’s decision. You two decide.
It’s fine with me. I’d love to go back. But right now, I already have a job. Everyone treats me well. Besides, I’ll be a permanent employee in a month. It’ll be a shame to go back now. Why not… I think we will go back sooner or later. Our roots are there. Yes.
I’d like to stay in the city and learn more. Do what I can now and see more things. Besides, both of us have stable jobs. Maybe a while longer. We’re only just starting out. Mr. Wan said this. If they prefer to stay in the city, they should stay.
You’re free to come and go. That’s right. It’s just Little Dou. Your dad and I will look after Little Dou. Rest assured. Alright? Okay. Okay. Eat. Eat up. It’s getting cold. Eat. What’s the matter? Skipped dinner again? Are you angry with me again? I’m not angry at you. Take a seat. Mom. Yes.
Can I ask you something? What is it? Well, you had all the goods back then. Why did you end up choosing Dad? Didn’t your mom oppose it? I was indeed the creme of the crop. And I was a beauty. I had many suitors. My mom opposed it of course. However, I was
Blinded by love. Your affection for Qingzhi is real, isn’t it? After you get married, you’ll understand. Affection and love. Those things can’t replace real life. All the good and bad. But I think although you always bicker with my dad, you two are still in love with each other. You seem happy. That’s true.
Your dad is quite good. And he cooks well. Sometimes, I tend to be a little willful, aren’t I? A little? You have the worst temper. Gosh. But still, I feel like I need to tell you. It’s not that Qingzhi is not good. I think Qingzhi is practical. And he has the drive.
But if you marry him, you’re not marrying only him. You’re marrying into his whole family. My situation is different from yours. The gap between urban and rural areas isn’t as big as before. Today, I got so upset not because Qingzhi’s parents came. It’s because he wasn’t being honest with me. Mom.
What’s the matter, Mom? Don’t cry. Trust me. I will be happy. I really want you to be happy. You are my heart and soul. You know that? Alright, I know. I have you. I feel so blessed because I have you. I know. Mom. Leave them here. I’ll do the dishes. Leave it. Qinglai.
I know you’re upset about the current living arrangement. I mentioned it to Qingzhi just now. He’s not an unreasonable person. It’s just that Yani is also in the equation. If you ruin Qingzhi’s relationship because of this matter, as his older brother, won’t you feel regretful? Besides, Yani’s father got you your job, right?
If because of this, he loses his family, that would be a shame. Qinglai. Listen to me. Move out, okay? Mom. I didn’t say I won’t move out. Alright. It’s all good. Little Dou. It’s Mommy. How I wish to be with you every day. But if I go back like this,
I will feel bad. Since I’ve been in the city, I’ve met a lot of people and experienced a lot. It’s not easy. But right now, I finally see the light. I hope you can be like the kids in the city. Get an education. Widen your horizons. This way, you’ll have more opportunities
In the future. You’ll have a better life than me. Don’t you agree? Please wait a bit longer for me. I will do my best. I’ll live with gusto. What is it? Yani. Qinglai and Xingfu have found a place. They’re moving out tomorrow. My parents are also going back tomorrow. Yani, I’m sorry.
I shouldn’t have kept this from you. Can you not lie to me again? Why can’t you just talk to me? Yani. I promise there won’t be a next time. Please give me one more chance. There you go again. The same old trick. I’m going to bed. What are you doing here?
Am I not allowed to be here? Have your parents left? Yes. They left in the morning. Put the things in the car. Go on. Xingfu. Qinglai. Qinglai, this way. Yani. Why are you here? Qingzhi said you broke up with him. It was like he had lost his soul. I’m not here for him.
I’m here for you. I come to see if there’s anything I could help with. So you two made up? I guess. That’s good. -I’ll take that. -That’s good. Let me tag along. You guys go ahead and settle in. Okay. Sure. Here’s the key. Call me if there is anything. Sure thing. Thank you.
No worries. Qingzhi. How could you let them stay in such a place? Xingfu. Yes? Why don’t you move back to our house? Yes. That won’t do. We can’t keep living there. This place isn’t bad. It will look different once everything is tidy. Thank you for bringing us here. You guys should go.
Why don’t we help to tidy up? Yes. It’s okay, really. This place is only so big. It’ll take only a minute to clean up. You two should go home. Xingfu, what else do you need? We’ll buy it for you. Need you to ask? We’ll just go first. Go. What’s with you?
Yani is already being very nice, going out of her way. Look at that face of yours. You’re pulling a long face. I’m not upset with Yani. I’m upset with Qingzhi. What a wimp. He’s going to be led by his wife. Meanwhile, you’re all that. You’re no pushover. Me? Am I a pushover?
Get working. I’m working. Here. You got that? We bought enough, right? I think so. We can always get more. Okay. Let me see. It should be enough. Qinglai. Qinglai. Qinglai. Xingfu. Coming. We bought these for you. You got so much. It’s heavy. It’s okay. I’ll take it. You bought a lot. There’s vinegar.
Xingfu. Can I have a word? Qingzhi. Tidy up the outside. Okay. Well… Here’s 3,000 yuan. It’s a little something from us. Please take it. What? We can’t take it. Xingfu, just put it in your pocket. No, I won’t take it. I won’t. Take it, Xingfu. Yani, listen to me.
Now that Qinglai and I are here, we’ll undoubtedly trouble you in the future. But, we can’t always rely on you. Otherwise, you and Qingzhi might not last long. Qingzhi is a good kid. His heart is set on you. I wish you two well. Keep the money.
Think of it as my saving with you. Next time, I’ll ask when I need it. Alright? Xingfu. Xingfu. I’m done tidying up. Do you need anything else? I need you to treat Yani better. Okay. It’s all good. You guys have been out the whole day. Go home early. Okay. We’ll leave then.
Okay. Call me if you need anything, Xingfu. I will. Qinglai. Yani and I are leaving. Qinglai, we’re leaving. Okay. Come visit often. Bye, Qinglai, Xingfu. Bye-bye. Thank you. I didn’t do it for you. I only came because I like Xingfu. Okay. So long as there’s one person in my family you like.
It won’t be you. I like you though. Here, have noodles. I’m exhausted. From now on, this will be our home. If only Little Dou could be with us. Easy for you to say. Who’s going to look after him? Are you going to stay at home? Or should I not work?
The rent and utilities need to be paid. That’s true. Let’s hang in there a while more. When we’re able to make 5,000 or 6,000 yuan a month, we’ll bring Little Dou here and attend kindergarten here. You make it sound so easy and effortless. How long is “a while more”? Soon.
I’m currently studying to become a receptionist. A receptionist earns more. You said your salary would be increased once you finish probation, right? That’s what they said. Who knows if that’s actually the case? It will get better. Things will get better. Eat. Finish up and get working. Aren’t you eating? I’m not hungry.
[Fangyuan Law Firm] [Recruiting Receptionist] Divorce and asset division. Divorce and asset. Let me register your name. Okay. We’ll discuss it again later. Your surname? It’s Qin. Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang. Perfect timing. The lady here wants to get a consultation, regarding divorce and asset division. I’ve taken her details. Come in, please. Okay. Take a seat. Okay. Morning, Xingfu.
Morning, Mr. Guan. Mr. Guan! Hey. Mr. Guan! Guan Tao. I want to talk to you about Xingfu. Keep it down. Sit. This is not right. Xingfu went and sat at the front desk. She made it look natural. She put the cleaning cloth and the watering can on the desk.
That’s damaging the law firm’s image. We have to find a more professional and suitable person. Okay, I’ll talk to her. Make sure you get it across. Xingfu. Mr. Guan. I greeted a person who came for asset division. That’s not just “a person”. That’s the “litigant”. Litigant. Mr. Wang is questioning her inside.
That’s not questioning. Mr. Wang is providing the litigant legal consultation. Yes. Right. The litigant asked me how much for an hour of legal consultation. I gritted my teeth and said 300. Who on earth charges 300? It’s just talking. And you get 300? My goodness, I don’t believe it.
But the lady agreed without a second thought. You know what? Mr. Wang’s consultation fee is 400 an hour. As a lawyer, you’re selling your time. Your price was too low. So… So I undersold it. I’ll say 500 next time then. Let’s not be an overkill. Just give the set price.
The most important thing about being a lawyer is honesty. Okay. Another thing. The recruitment ad down there. Did you remove it? Don’t just smile. Is it you? What are you so pleased about? Yes. Mr. Guan. Can I discuss something with you? Just hire me as the receptionist. You’ll save the second salary. Xingfu.
I believe that with your ability and willingness to learn, you’ll become a receptionist in the future. But for now, could I ask you to focus on doing your own work well? But… I’m doing my own work well. Why? I could totally handle the receptionist job. Why must you hire two people?
You’re not the right one now. How so? Let me put it this way. In an industry, not just a law firm, but every industry. When looking for a receptionist, apart from having good looks and proper demeanor, the most important thing is to have professional knowledge. Because the receptionist
Is the face of the company. Understand? So you mean… I’m saying… Look at the way you’re dressed. You don’t look the part at all. What’s wrong with how I dressed? No problem. [Entrance] Who are you looking for? I’m here to do something. Do you have the papers? A visitor pass?
Papers? They’re in there. Everyone needs a visitor’s pass. Register yourself if you don’t have it. This way. I have the pass. It’s inside. Bring your ID and register at the front desk. [Yuzhong TV News Center] Xingfu. Hey. Yani. You want to see me? I wanted to ask you something. Can you tell me
How to become prettier and more elegant? Here’s the thing. I want to become a receptionist. But Guan Tao thinks I’m too plain. Don’t laugh. What should I do to become like that? Help me out. I think you’re too cute, Xingfu. That’s easy. Come with me. I’ll help you. Okay. Come on.
I think this will do. I think you can add some more blush. Don’t. Wearing such heavy makeup for work, isn’t it a bit too much? Not at all. I’m going to wipe it off. No, don’t. Look in the mirror. You’re beautiful. Moreover, as a woman, particularly a career woman,
Dressing and dolling up is the biggest respect you can show to yourself and others. Really? So am I a career woman right now? If you earn your own money to raise your family, then you’re a career woman. Okay. Then I’ll follow the standard set for a career woman. Add the blush.
Good morning, Mr. Guan. What’s wrong? Nothing is wrong with me. What’s wrong with you? What’s that on your face? I… I put on some makeup. If it’s bad, I can remove it. Xingfu. Listen to me. You’re already beautiful. Just be yourself. You don’t have to follow others. I know.
You wish to be the receptionist. But you don’t have to do this just to be one. Okay, I get it. Xingfu. Come here. I didn’t mean anything bad just now. I just want you to stay true to who you are. Maybe the way I said it was a little harsh. I apologize.
Mr. Guan. Am I laughable? You want an honest answer? A tiny bit. Now that you can’t be the receptionist, can you help me look for someone? Look for someone? Who? The person is very skilled. I learned a lot from the person. You even learned a lot? That’s amazing. Is the person your mentor?
You could say that. This person is very brave, strong-willed, studious, and smart. No. Not smart, really. But… not bad. Well… Where does this person live? No. Is the person a man or a woman? How old is the person? Same as you, a woman. Right. Once you find her,
Help me give this to her. “Glossary of Legal Terms”. She’s studying law? Give me the address then. I’ll deliver this to her. She used to live in Wan Village. Currently, I think she works at a law firm. Are you talking about me? Did you really mean me? Yes. [Glossary of Legal Terms]
Come on, it’s our shift. Hey, time to change shifts. Go inside and rest. Thank you. No worries. We’re off. Qinglai. Finished your shift? Yes. Tired? Have some water. Qinglai. I have a favor to ask. My younger brother has just graduated from college and hopes to be introduced to the organization.
If you are free, could you talk to Mr. Xu? He’s in charge. Okay. Please see to it as soon as possible. Don’t worry. Here’s a little something. Please accept. No, it’s okay. I haven’t even done the favor. How could I accept? Save it. It doesn’t matter if it’s done or not.
My brother brought some local specialties from home. You and your wife can try them. You really don’t have to. No need to be so polite. Wang Qinglai. Get over here. A guest who came yesterday said you made things difficult for him. He didn’t have his ID. I couldn’t issue a visitor’s pass.
The secretary had to come and get him. Yet you still think that’s okay? Isn’t that the rule? No entry without a pass. Rules are dead. Are people dead too? Couldn’t you be more flexible? I was just following the rules. Moreover, he was being a real jerk. Still trying to reason with me?
Stand straight. You’re always so lackadaisical. That’s improper. Listen carefully. One more mistake, and you can pack your bags. See that? It’s like a bully throwing his weight around. Yes. Ignore him. Yes. I’ll have a word with my uncle. We’ll see who’s packing their bag. ♪Maybe your life was broken♪
