So eloquent

Everyone applauded

I tried to look for you

I would have been so proud if I were you

Proud my ass

Be it first in the school

Or first in the world, I'll not speak to him again

What's wrong with you two?

What a stormy relationship

Inseparable when you're in love

Vicious when you're fighting

Auntie

Mei-Jung

You came as well! Have a seat

How can I not?

Where were you?

I want you in the picture

Come, come to my house

Auntie, I...

I don't want to see him again

This has nothing to do with Ching-Mao

I'm the one who invites you

Get closer

Father

Take a picture of Ching-Mao and I

Okay, stand still

I'm quite a photographer

Wait

Let us all be in the picture

Come on

Auntie, I'll not be in the picture with him

Then we take the picture later

Come, sit

Come, sit

Don't be mad

I'll teach him a lesson

You two have chat

I'm going to lie down for a bit

Why don't you two sit?

- I'll sit with you

- Sit anywhere you like

Ching-Mao

Someone should be at your graduation

But she didn't come

You know why?

Auntie

Let's not talk about it

I waited until now to tell you

Else you'll forever misunderstand her

I...

That day you went to see your mother

Just so happened a man walked out her room

Was I right?

So you just pushed your mother away

Do you know who he is?

The hotel chef

She asked him with the best of intention

To prepare a feast

Auntie, did she tell you this?

The next day she came to me in tears

Saying you see her as immoral

Didn't even let her explain herself

Before she left, she told me

She'd never come to see you again

Seems we need to go to Pingtung

Why are you going?

Last time Mei-Jung went there with him

So he has to trouble Mei-Jung again

Mei-Jung

I'm not obliged to go with you

Big brother!

Excuse me, you brought a lady

Have a seat

Let's sit

Didn't know you're coming

This is Miss Chang

My brother

How are you? Please, sit.

Ma said Miss Chang was your girlfriend

Only you in the house?

Ma went to the hospital

With Uncle

He's having an operation

Which hospital?

They didn't tell me

And I wasn't home then

They didn't even left me with a dime!

For how long?

About a week

For what?

The stomach is rotten completely

Rice gruel all day long

How can he take it?

The surgery

Will remove half of his stomach

He can't die

I don't want to be an excess baggage again

You're here to?

See Auntie

To see Ma?

How strange

Ma went to Taipei ten times just to see you

You refused to see her

Now she gave up

And you decided to visit her

Got any cash?

You really don't know where they are?

I'm not lying

Either in Tainan or Taipei

And it's a big hospital

If it wasn't for you

The illness would killed me

I did it for myself

Let's rest a bit

My eldest son rejects me

My other son is a disappointment

Who will take care of me

If you are not around?

Tell me

Do you treat me better than my cousin?

Look at you

Keep putting salt on old wounds

The mistakes of my youth

Now I have only regrets

You don't look so old to me

Flatterer

Be more careful, you brat!

Mr. Shen, you're back

Feeling better?

I was lucky

All thanks to my wife

Ma, you're back

I've a surprise for you

My Ma

My uncle

- My girlfriend, A-shiou

- Auntie

Your girlfriend?

We plan to live with you first

We'll move out

After we're married

- Married?

- Yup

We can now stop worrying about you.

Get some tea

Ma, there is something else

Big bro was here

Ching-Mao?

Yeah, he came with his girlfriend

His girlfriend was also very pretty

But I didn't know the name of the hospital

How can it be?

Why would I lie to you?

He's going to the training center in the army

Then he'll study oversea

In other words

He's luckier than me

Look like you have to go to Taipei

Go

Go

Big bro Wu

Ching-Mao just left

Half an hour ago

To do military training

Hui-de and Mei-Jung went to the train station to see him off

- The train leaves at?

- 15:
40

I still have ten minutes

You'll not make it

You can visit him in the future

After ten years

Can't even wait for another second

I won't be able to make it

Please, as fast as you can

We'll visit you next week

Auntie, no need for you to stay

Mei-Jung, goodbye

Please, hurry!

Hurry

This is killing me

Bye, I'll come visit you with Auntie

Don't forget to write

I'll come visit you

Beware of the two-way traffic

Ching-Mao

- Ma

- Ching-Mao

- Ching-Mao

- Ma

Ching-Mao

Ching-Mao

Ching-Mao

- Ching-Mao

- Ma

Ma!

Ma!
