Eat Drink Man Woman Page #2

What will we do now?

It's a wedding for the General's son!

This is only good for gravy.

The Whole Shark Fin

will look like porcupine.

We'll make Joy Luck Dragon Phoenix.

Abalone? We'll lose money on this!

Money is not important now.

We'll first settle the situation,

and I'll explain this

to the boss later.

Let's get ready, everyone!

I need lobsters,

abalone and Jade Prawns!

On the 10th floor,

and the windows face south.

Central air conditioning?

Of course!

There's also a guest room for you

to stay when you visit.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I don't know why I'm upset.

I should be happy for her.

No, I understand.

I should be the one apologizing.

I shouldn't leave Father

in your hands...

...but I just can't

live here with him anymore.

Even though

I'll be just a few miles away,

it's like being in another world.

I don't blame you for being upset.

Why should we be upset?

It's just a matter of time

before you or Jia-Jen

gets married and moves out.

What's the difference?

I'm acting upset because...

...I worry how Father will take it.

He can barely stand

the sight of me these days.

We hardly speak to each other.

It will be

a great relief for everyone.

Anyhow, Dad doesn't need us around.

What he really needs

is a companion his own age...

...like Mrs. Liang!

That's not even funny.

We've tried setting him up,

and it's been a disaster.

The only true love

in his life was our mother.

You call bickering and fighting love?

What do you know?

Maybe it's not romance to you...

...but it was founded on

real old-fashioned respect and values.

It was an old-fashioned war

that ended only when Mom died!

How would you know?

You were a kid when she died.

I was old enough to know her better!

Stop it, you two.

Try it.

This is how it's done.

Jim-Rong is here!

You're all here. Where's Uncle Chu...?

Something came up at the restaurant.

He went to help.

Jia-Chien is busy in her room.

Have you eaten?

It's 8 p.m.! Of course we ate.

Today, Mom burned the fish.

I didn't bring you along to complain?

I'll give you some of

Grandpa Chu's crab dumplings

to take home.

You got a haircut!

Yes.

I run around like crazy every day.

I don't have time to care for it.

It's easier short.

You look younger.

Really?

I wanted to look professional.

Can we go draw now?

Can we draw Grandpa Chu today?

Was it really that bad?

Who knows?

They were both crying and fussing.

Mother said

Jin-Feng wasn't being filial.

Jin-Feng said if Mom stayed with them,

she'd end up divorced.

If Jin-Feng got a divorce, too,

my mother really couldn't take it.

I still feel that

Jin-Feng should care for her.

With your current situation.
