The Journey Page #2

Isn't it too late?

Why don't you tell me when I'm dead?

Stop it, I object!

Mr chicken head.

Hey, come on.

Don't let this get you down.

You said yourself

your dad was a difficult man.

Just look ahead, sweetheart.

Look to the sparkling sea

and the white sand.

We'll find some sweet little

secluded beach somewhere.

You can relax.

And finish off your thesis painting.

This here is just a detour.

You come out! Men and women are

not allowed to be in one room.

What did he say?

He wants us to sleep apart.

And you are not allowed

to enter my room.

Ok, well that is

really old fashion.

Chinese rules.

His rules.

You sleep here.

Don't go upstairs.

I am Low Boon Cheng.

I wish all my classmates

of year 1961...

...from Seng Yok Primary School,...

...have a prosperous year and may

all your dreams come true! Ulala!

Low Boon Cheng?

This Mr Goat Low Cheng Boon.

Is now known as Low Boon Cheng?

You, stop starring at me.

What the hell?

Oh, sh*t!

Thank you, very much.

Uncle Chuan, Happy New Year.

Uncle Chuan, I heard you let off

firecrackers last night.

And it was loud.

Having a westerner

as your son-in-law.

Is a blessing.

Shut up!

Wake up.

It's the first day of Chinese

New Year, you better get up now.

This is for you.

Uncle, Happy New Year!

Bee, Happy New Year.

Auntie Gao, Happy New Year.

Just be frank.

I'm concern about you not being busybody.

I heard that there was a

loud arguement last night.

You had a fight with your dad?

Because of your wedding?

You shouldn't fight with him,

especially at the reunion dinner

You only have one father in your life.

In fact, uncle dotes on you so much.

If he really loves me.

He wouldn't have left me in England.

You wouldn't know.

Easier said than done.

Your mum died when you're so young.

Your dad just started the farm.

How could a man..

...take care of a

8-year-old kid.

I can take care of myself.

I don't need him to look after me.

Easier said than done.

Do you have any idea how

hard it is for your dad?

As our Chinese saying...

...even if you're not filial enough,

at least you obey to your parents.

It shouldn't take you so

long to wash those veggies.

Don't you wash-off

the peel of my veggies.

It's tastier that way, Uncle.

Hey, Benji.

Wake up, Benji.

Time for breakfast.

I don't want to eat, I just want to sleep!

No, wake up!

Just let me sleep in alright!

Today is the first day of Chinese New year.

If you don't get up soon,

he is going to be angry again.

I'm sorry, did you just

say that he will be angry?

Are you having a laugh?

Look, it's been an uphill battle

for me, from the minute I arrived.

And you cannot say I haven't tried.
