and it is the right thing to do.

Teacher.

If our pear trees have no flowers or fruit

Does it mean they are dying?

Dad is a big idiot!

How do you feel today?

Anything wrong?

If you are suffering, you must let me know.

Am I treating you badly?

I want you to grow naturally.

Without pesticide.

Keep on.

Dad!

Feng. Back from school?

What are you doing dad?

Another pest has burrowed

into the tree, look.

See, I picked up an empty bottle.

Yeah. Look, a big hole here.

Dad! Dad! Stop! You're making a scene.

You just get down here!

You get up here!

Get down here!

Get up here!

- Ok -No, no! Don't get up dad!

Add flour, add water... Mix.

Anyone home?

Anyone home?

Ow!

Here it comes.

I bought this cake to say

thank you to your dad.

And it's his birthday today!

What a coincidence.

I was going to buy him a cake...

But...

The money I got from recycling

wasn't enough.

So I'm making a cake myself

for his birthday.

I see.

My dad is home.

Dad.

What happened?

It's fine. I'm ok.

Teacher Chi.

Are you ok?

I'm fine. I fell off my ladder

in the orchard.

I have been absent-minded recently.

Dad? Did you forget to take your medicine?

Yes I did.

I've told you to concentrate.

I worry about you.

Ok, I'm sorry.

You two are funny.

Feng is like a dad and dad is like a son.

Here it comes.

One, two three...

Happy birthday!

Feng's dad, sorry to bother you today.

Don't say sorry.

It's me who should be thanking you.

You look after Feng for me.

He struggles when no-one

keeps an eye on him.

His English, grammar and vocabulary,

is poor.

You're not much better.

Because I'm no good

you must work hard. Get it?

But his math is very good.

He helps me teach the other students.

It's because he's very stingy.

He counts to the last penny.

I'm your son. If I love money

I get it from you!

I'm not as stingy as you.

Whatever you say about me

applies to you too.

Here, your birthday present. Take it.

What's this? Stingy guy!

"Wish vouchers" three of them.

You can use them to ask me

to do things for you.

They're valid for a year.

Once expired, that's it.

Oh, ok.

I'm so tired today I will use one now.

Can you wash the dishes later?

Easy-peasy. Good one for me.

No, no, I've changed my mind.

It was your turn to wash the dishes today.

You're getting a good deal here.

Too late! Gentlemen should keep their word!

Who said I'm a gentleman?

- Hey! Give it back!

- It was your turn to do the dishes.

Give it back. You have to keep your word!

A gentleman's word!

Teacher is here. Can't you behave?

Ho Hsiao-Feng!

Give it to me! Give it to me!

Eight years ago I had a child,

I lived in a dead-end town, trapped by him.
