[INDO SUB] The Story of Xing Fu EP19 | Zhao Liying / Liu Wei | YOUKU
[The Story of Xing Fu] [Episode 19] [Fangyuan Law Firm] What was that about? Another wasted trip. Their attitude was so bad. Ridiculous. The truth is that they think our law firm is too small. Our law firm might be small, but it’s fully equipped. Tell me. What do we lack?
Are you asking me? [Fangyuan Law Firm] Is this our office? I know she’s very capable, but I didn’t know she was this good. Xingfu. Oh, my. Oh, my goodness. That’s dangerous. Get down. Get down. You are back early. Don’t worry. I’ll be done soon. The office looks great. This is so heavy.
How did you lift it? -Careful. -Watch out. This… I… I don’t know what else I should do. Your job only starts officially tomorrow. Then what about all that you’ve done today? Did you work for free? Why didn’t I realize that you were so petty? How can you be so calculative?
Are you not calculative? I don’t think they’re not calculative either. Tell me how much they pay you each month. 1,500 yuan. 1,500 yuan only? Why are they paying you so little? I think they know you’re desperate, that’s why they are paying you so little. Aren’t you quite capable? Didn’t you negotiate
For better pay? Their law firm is newly opened. They haven’t made any money just yet. Mr. Guan is nice enough to give me a job. How can I bargain for higher pay? Alright then. Regardless, you have a job now. It’s easier to get a job with connections. What’s wrong with Qingzhi?
He still hasn’t found me a job yet. You can’t live without your brother? Don’t smoke in the apartment. Smoke outside. Okay. I won’t smoke. Hello. Xingyun. I was about to call you after I finish the housework. Did you resign from the Early Learning Center? Yes. Why? It was such a coincidence today.
Do you know who I met today? Guan Tao. Mr. Guan. His new law firm isn’t far from the Early Learning Center. What? You met Guan Tao? Yes. I even decided to work at his law firm. What a coincidence. I’m making pastries. Come over for a meal. I’ll cook more dishes. Do come by.
Well. Not today. Your place is too far. Maybe next time. Continue cooking, Xingfu. Bye. Hello, Senior. [Fangyuan Law Firm] Senior, your place is hard to find. I only found it after searching for a few rounds. There’s neither coffee nor tea. It’s near the court. It’s easier to find customers.
Operating a small law firm is tough. This is nothing compared to Yidao Law Firm. Take a seat. It seems you’re doing well in your career. Not too bad, I guess. I’m now a practicing lawyer. I got some cases. So it’s way better than before. It’s what you deserve with your capability.
But there’s something that you shouldn’t be hasty with. This circle is neither big nor small. There are many things that you can’t hide. What do you mean? I heard some rumors out there. It’s said that Yidao Law Firm has a hardworking new lawyer. Furthermore, she’s quite bold. You’re talking about
Ruishou Wine Company, right? The informer changed his testimony in court. Isn’t this odd? It’s as if he’s slapping his own face. I’ve only seen such things in movies. I didn’t break the law. Regarding this matter, the whole process was based on evidence. That’s for sure. I believe that Han would settle this
Without any flaws. However, aside from legal principles, ethical reasoning should also be considered. Isn’t your approach toward the case too unconventional and inappropriate? Or else, there wouldn’t be so many rumors in this circle. Why are you taking the moral high ground to judge me? What’s the point? Yes.
You helped me a lot. I’m grateful and I mean it. But I can finally be independent now. Why are you using another method to show your superiority in front of me? This is perhaps the misunderstanding between us. I’ve never thought like that. Perhaps we are not on the same path.
You’re right. I admit that as before, I’m still concerned about you. As a friend, I would like to give you my last piece of advice. I hope you wouldn’t mind. I don’t agree with the working style of Han. I believe you know it as well. A person like him can indeed
Get along well with others in life. He’s unscrupulous and greedy. But not everyone can agree with him. Because a despicable method means a despicable goal. If you still have a conscience and moral principles, there’ll be a big price to pay for such a deal. Xingyun. Right now, your life isn’t as hard
As your life as a fresh graduate. Now that you are better off, you should make a sensible choice. You left Yidao Law Firm to open such a small law firm. Don’t you regret it? To be honest, I don’t. Perhaps it’s because I can still make a living. In addition,
You helped my sister make a living. That’s not true. She has her value. In fact, I think I pay her too little. Really? Believe it or not. If I just happen to know you today, I won’t believe you. Sadly, we’ve known each other for a long time. Here. Taste it. I’m not sure
If the filling is salty enough. The pastries made by you are my favorite. Qingzhi. Have you gotten me a job? I haven’t had any news. Qinglai. Don’t be anxious. It’s hard to find a job in the city at the moment. Can’t your father-in-law help out? I… I mentioned it to him.
He didn’t answer me. Yani and I aren’t married yet. It’s inappropriate for me to keep asking since he didn’t answer. Let’s eat. Qinglai. Why don’t you go out tomorrow? There’s a labor office nearby. Go and have a look. Hurry. Xingfu. What are you doing? There are some stubborn stains on the floor.
So I’m soaking them. Be careful. If a customer falls here, we will be legally responsible. Why? If they fell on their own, why should we be legally responsible? This is our place. If a customer is here for business, we have the legal obligation to ensure their safety. Okay. I’ll get it done soon.
We don’t have many customers now anyway. Xingfu. Why are you cleaning again? Didn’t you just clean the office? Do something else. What else can I do? You can change the bottle of the water dispenser. Well… Choose more restaurants for lunch so we can have more options. When you know this place better,
You can help deliver some documents. The court is right there. It’s nearby. You can do all that. Tell… Tell me more. I’ll jot it down. What else can I do? So… Change the water bottle. Change the water bottle. Order lunch. Order lunch. Submit documents. What else? The court is right there. Okay.
When I’m done with these duties, can I be the receptionist? Xingfu. That place is a little dirty. Clean it. No. I’m done cleaning. Only these two spots are dirty. Other places are clean. Qinglai. Qinglai. Qingzhi. You’re off work. Qinglai, you’re back so early. Get some rest. I’ll cook for you. No need.
I’ve done the cooking. Qinglai. How’s your job search? I found nothing. I wanted to find a manual job, such as moving houses, building walls or digging trenches. Anything is fine. They had nothing. I found out that those in these fields are from Jiangsu and Hebei. They know each other.
They’re helping out each other. I have no chance. Qinglai, don’t be anxious. Let’s keep searching. Qingzhi. Didn’t you say that you mentioned to your father-in-law about the job? Yes. Is it because we didn’t send any gifts? Everything is about gifts nowadays. Qinglai. Yani’s father doesn’t want gifts. Even if he does,
He won’t take gifts from us. I’m back. Xingfu. When Guan Tao helped us with the lawsuit, Mom and Dad said they earned money just by talking. As if they’re robbing. I didn’t say anything then. But I thought they make money very easily. But now that I’m working with them, I realize
That their work is tough. They need professional knowledge. Today, someone came to our law firm. Can’t you keep quiet while you eat? What’s wrong? What’s so hard about it? Their work is much easier than manual labor. How can you say that? Qingzhi also has an office job.
Is it easy for him to make money? No. Qinglai. Qinglai. I’m going to work now. Have another look at the apartment we saw last time. Try to negotiate with them. If it’s cheaper, we’ll just rent it. I haven’t found a job yet. What’s the hurry? Wouldn’t we be out of money
If we counted only on your earnings? Why don’t you have a look at other labor offices? It’s useless. You can’t find a job without connections. Think about it. Even you got your job because of your connection with Guan Tao. Xingfu. Why don’t we treat Yani’s parents to a meal? Why? To build connections.
You… You’ll be putting Qingzhi in a difficult position. Stop mentioning it. Find a job yourself. I’m leaving now. [Cigarette and Alcohol] Sir. How much does the cigarette on the right of Double Happiness cost? [* Cigarette brand] 20 yuan. What do you want? A pack of Zhongnanhai. [* Cigarette brand] Okay, thank you.
Sir. What about the one on the left? This is 50 yuan. 50 yuan? How much is a whole package? A whole package? 500 yuan. 500 yuan? The whole package is 500 yuan? Yes. That’s the market price. Sir. Sir. That white bottle with a red lid. How much is that? This one?
On the right. The white one. This is 700 yuan. 700 yuan? So expensive. What do you need it for? Why do you care? What about this? One whole package of this cigarette is 500 yuan. I’ll offer you two for 800 yuan. How about that? Two for 800 yuan? Yes. Are these
The same as that one? They’re the same. Don’t worry. Everything I sell is real. If they’re fake, you can come back anytime. Okay? They think I’m not qualified enough. They’re in the start-up stage. I may need to work overtime. And the law firm is so small. I’m not going to consider it.
Let’s go. Mr. Guan. This is yours. Okay, thank you. Here’s yours, Mr. Zhang. Thank you. Yours. Thank you. Those two definitely won’t do. Should we post the recruitment notice at more places? Nowadays, fresh grads are ambitious. With the pay that we offer them, it won’t be easy. Money, money.
He who takes charge knows the responsibility. I think I’m getting sick. Whenever money is mentioned, I feel dizzy. But luckily, Xingfu is here. At least, she can help us with the reception. But we can’t go on like this. Does that mean I did some reception work? Are you asking for a raise?
No way. I’m dizzy whenever money is mentioned. No. Didn’t I… I did whatever I could do. You don’t need a receptionist. You can even save some money. Xingfu. You need special knowledge in this field. Can we stop thinking about being the receptionist? Okay. Bye. Okay. Hello. Who are you looking for? I’m here
To see Mr. Xu. Please register here. Hello. How may I help you? I’m here to see Mr. Xu. Which Mr. Xu are you looking for? Just Mr. Xu. Do I have to specify which Mr. Xu it is? We have many colleagues named Xu.
Which department is the Mr. Xu you are looking for from? Hold on a second. Qinglai. I have a question. Yes? Which department is your father-in-law in? Organization Department. What do they do? They’re in charge of cadres selection. Qinglai. Why do you ask? It’s nothing. I just wanted to know.
I’m looking for a job now. I’ve got to go. I’m hanging up. Where was I again? This is… Mr. Xu of the Organization Department. Who are you to him? Nephew. Hello. Hello. Is this Mr. Xu? I’m from the guard house. Your nephew is here to see you. My nephew? Which nephew?
Mr. Xu asked which nephew you were. Here, give it to me. I’ll talk to him. Hello. Uncle. I’m Wang Qinglai. Qingzhi’s brother. I just came into the city. My parents told me to stop by to visit you. I see. Well, I’m working now. It’s inconvenient. Why don’t we meet another day? No, Uncle.
I’ve been here for many days, yet I haven’t visited you. And my parents have urged me many times. Okay. Just… Just wait for me there. I’m coming. He told me to wait. Then register here and wait in the security room. I need to register here? Yes. Wang. Let him in. Okay.
Who’s looking for me? Mr. Xu, here he is. Are you Mr. Xu? Uncle. Are you Wang Qingzhi’s brother? Yes. Yani mentioned you to me. Well, I’ve been very busy. I know, Uncle. Here’s the thing. Since I was in town, my parents kept telling me to visit you and to thank you
For taking care of Qingzhi. I know you’re busy, so I didn’t want to disturb you. Yesterday, they called to scold me again. Uncle. Please pardon me. No. Don’t be too polite. This is for you. No. No way. No, Uncle. We have regulations here. We can’t receive any gifts. No, Uncle.
I bought these for you. I bought these for you. No way. Take them, please. I neither smoke nor drink. I have no use for these. Keep them at home then. Besides, you just came to the city. You need favors. I don’t. Keep it for them. If you don’t take them,
You look down on us. You… If you don’t take them, you look down on us. Uncle. Take these. You… Come out with me. Come out. He called him “Uncle”. Yes. So that’s his nephew. Are they related? My parents say that we are all very happy that Qingzhi has a girlfriend like Yani. No.
Let’s not talk about that. Are you here to see me for a reason? No. I just came to… Really? I just came to see you. I just thought I might trouble you now that I’m in the city. It’s good that you didn’t come with an agenda. Then
I shall head back to work. No, Uncle. There’s a small matter. See? What small matter? Well, Qingzhi mentioned to you about getting me a job, right? What job? Didn’t he mention it to you? Here’s the thing. I… I can’t stay in the village anymore. I would like to work in town.
But it’s hard to find a job nowadays. I only know you in this town. Therefore… Your name is Qingshi? Qinglai. Wang Qinglai. Qinglai. Qingzhi must have introduced me to you as well. He did. Of course, he did. He said you’re the director of a department. Your position is as high
As the head of a county. Did he say that? Did he also mention that I also came from a village? He did mention it. He said you’re great. You came from a village and now you are a high-ranking official. He said you’re his role model. Let’s not talk about ranks.
You can imagine that I too have uncles, aunties, and many relatives. Our family isn’t smaller than yours. Let’s put it this way. Yesterday, my nephew, my biological nephew came to see me. He graduated from a technical school. Despite his certificate, he couldn’t find a suitable job for two years.
He wanted me to arrange something. I rejected him right away. Your biological nephew? Yes. I got into university with the help of my entire family. What about my brother? He was managing the entire family. He sustained the whole family. Shouldn’t I care more about his son? But I… I would love to,
But I can’t. Especially now. You know what the current situation is like. Right? There are anti-corruption campaigns. You must have heard. If I use my power for personal gain, that would be a classic corruption. Let alone that I don’t have much power in the organization. Even if I have, I can’t use
My power to help my family. If I did that, how could I still be the director of a department? Do you want me to retire early? Right? Uncle. Despite what you said, could you still help me? I… It’s not that I don’t want to help. I honestly can’t help. Qingzhi mentioned to me
That you provided his tuition fee. You’ve contributed a lot to the family. Qingzhi is my future son-in-law. I thank you on his behalf. But this favor you asked for… I… Can’t… Right? In fact, if you’re willing to work, it’s not so hard to find a job. Right? There. Right at that corner.
Around that corner. There’s an employment agency. You can go there and have a try. That’s at least a way. Uncle. I understand now. I understand. Thank you, Uncle. No. I didn’t do anything. I’ve troubled you. Don’t say that. Take these. No. This… As I mentioned, please take it back. Okay.
Then I shall not keep you any longer. I’ll let you get back to work. So, I shall just leave now. Qinglai. Here. Here. Here’s some money. Take this. No way. Uncle, no way. You just got in town. -I can’t take this. -You need this. How can I take your money, Uncle? Uncle.
Do take it. Take it. I… I’m going back to work. Okay? Qinglai. Qinglai. Why didn’t you discuss it with me before you see Yani’s father at his office? How dare you say that, huh? Qingzhi. You’ve grown up. You’re an adult now. You don’t need me now. You learned to lie to me.
Didn’t you say you told him about me? Did you? Qingzhi, let me ask you. How did you get into university? How did you get your apartment? Ask your conscience. Without me, would you have all these? You’ve grown up now. You have a big apartment and an office job, right?
You have a county head as a father-in-law. I was chased out of the village and came to ask for your help. Yet you learned to lie to me. Why didn’t you just throw me out? Qinglai. I’m sorry. I have no way. You should have been honest with me. Just turn me down.
And that would be the end of it. Why did you lie to me? You made me beg him. So I could be insulted by him face-to-face. We’re relatives. How dare he give me a lesson? Has he not made arrangements for his family? He’s pretending to be upright when it’s me. Does he
Respect you as his son-in-law? If he looks down on you, don’t beg him shamelessly! Although our family is small, we have pride! He thinks we’re villagers who know nothing. Isn’t the Organization Department in charge of recruiting people? Don’t they arrange manpower? Qinglai. Scold me if you want to.
Please don’t talk about Yani’s father like that. I’m useless. Qinglai. How should I tell you this? Yes. I didn’t ask for his favor. Not only that, when her father knew that you and Xingfu are here, he even asked me if you needed help. I rejected him right away. Aren’t you acting tough? Why?
Qinglai. Yes. I’m acting tough. Qinglai, there’s something that I don’t know how to tell you. In fact, when I got together with Yani, her mother didn’t like me. In the beginning, her mother threatened her with death. But the more she threatened Yani, the more determined Yani was. That’s how
We managed to stay together. To be honest, I… When I’m with Yani, I always feel self-abased. Our family background isn’t the same. Their social status is obviously higher. I always feel inferior in front of her family. Qinglai, please understand me. How can I beg them to help our family? Can’t you just
Break up with her? You’re with her, she can’t help out, yet you’re being mistreated. And you have to stand the humiliation of your mother-in-law. What for? But Qinglai, I love Yani. Yani is nice to me. She tolerates me. She loves me. I never dreamed that I can be with a girl like Yani.
Sometimes, I think I would rather give up whatever I have now to be with Yani. Even your family? Qinglai. There are different matters. Qinglai. I’ve told all my friends about the job search. They promised to help. Coming. Who is that? Who’s there? Hello, Mrs. Xu. Why are you here?
Yani is on a business trip. Don’t you know? I know. By the way, Mrs. Xu. I bought you some nuts. We are not celebrating some festivals, why are you giving me gifts? I heard this is delicious and nutritious. So I bought a box for you and Mr. Xu. Is Qingzhi here? Mr. Xu.
Come in. I told him to come. Why did you ask him to come? Is something up? Yesterday, I met his supervisor. He wants to transfer Qingzhi to another department. We shall discuss it. Aren’t you going out for groceries? Hurry up. That’s right. I’m going now. Mr. Xu, sorry. Goodbye, Mrs. Xu. Goodbye.
Mr. Xu. I’m sorry. My brother was immature. He has troubled you. I want to clarify something. Did you tell your family that I’m a county head? Mr. Xu. I think I should explain this to you. Yani was also there that day. My parents asked me about your official rank.
In order to let them understand better, I told them you’re at the county level. Your rank is the same as the county secretary. Sorry, Mr. Xu. My parents didn’t understand well. I knew it. You don’t look like someone like that. Sorry, Mr. Xu. I didn’t expect my brother
To see you at your office. To him, he thinks the county head is a high-ranking official who can do anything he wants. There are things that I can’t explain to them. Sorry, Mr. Xu. You never asked me to find your brother a job. This explained it all. Thank you for saying that.
They came to seek your help. What are you planning to do? I don’t know either. Don’t worry. I want to hear your real thoughts. My brother came to seek my help. He can no longer stay in the village. They can’t find jobs here either. I already told my friends about this.
They’re just like me who just joined the workforce not long ago. I guess this problem can’t be solved at the time being. But I thought since they’re here, I can’t chase them out. Qingzhi. Your office supervisor complimented you. He compliments you every time he sees me. He even said, Deputy Mayor Xiang
Also praised your capability. Therefore, now is your crucial moment. Don’t think your future will forever be bright. You should focus on the present. If you’re not careful, everything will be back to zero. Don’t worry about your brother. Forget it. I shall arrange a job for your brother. Mr. Xu,
Wouldn’t it be hard for you? It’s never easy to ask for a favor. But if I don’t do it, you’ll have to do it. Fortunately, I’ve been working longer than you and I have more connections. However, you must be clear with your brother. With his current skills, he has no advantage
In getting a job in town. It’s good enough to have a job. He can’t be picky. Don’t worry, Mr. Xu. I will tell him that. Thank you. ♪Maybe your life was broken♪ ♪Maybe you were rendered silent by disappointment♪ ♪Even so, you need to move forward bravely♪ ♪And live as you persevere♪
