[English subtitles are available] [A Love for Dilemma] [Sponsored by Shanghai Cultural Development Foundation] [Culture & Art Salon] [Episode 36] Mi Tao, how’s your injury? I’m fine. I’m not hurt. That’s great. Come, sit over here. Ms. Zhang, have a seat. -Have some tea. -Thank you. I’m here today to apologize for my actions.
As their class teacher, I’m fully responsible for this incident. I’ve warned Huan Huan regarding this incident before. I didn’t expect this to become worse. Ms. Zhang, please don’t say that. This is not your fault. I’ve asked their classmates about this. They said Mi Tao was the one who wanted to
Make things clear with Huan Huan after school. In the end, Huan Huan couldn’t accept the fact. That’s why they fought. I shouldn’t have pushed Huan Huan. Mi Tao, I’m not here to criticize you. But, you must remember this. If anything like this happens again,
You should notify the adults at the very first moment. You can tell your teachers or your parents about it. My parents are working very hard. I mustn’t trouble them. Our family is different from others. You’re a child. Why do you speak like an adult?
Do you know what’s the happiest thing I’ve encountered this year? I’m happiest that you were in my class. All of the teachers are proud to have a student like you. You were always shining brightly. You will shine brightly in the future as well. It’s not your fault that you were bullied.
It’s not your fault that you’re a top student. Understood? Tao, I shouldn’t have thrown such a huge tantrum in front of you last time. Please don’t hate me. I’ll apologize to you. My baby, you were in the wrong this time. You shouldn’t have bullied someone else no matter what happens.
Now, we’ve apologized to her. Don’t repeat it next time, okay? Why are you guys siding with another person’s child? -I’m your child, you know? -That’s not the case. You guys don’t love me because my grades aren’t as good as hers. How could we not love you?
It’s precisely because we love you that we’re stopping you from making mistakes. Didn’t we apologize to them and showed you a good example? Dad, you’ve changed. You always sided with me in the past. Now, you’re siding with Mum. You two are in cahoots. That’s not the case.
I only help those who are right. Is Huan Huan asleep? Li Li, this mustn’t continue. Huan Huan is ganging and bullying others when she’s in primary school. She’ll be capable of terrible things when she grows up. It isn’t that serious. It’s just an argument between kids.
It’ll be fine as long as they apologize and reflect on their actions. There’s no need to treat this so seriously. But this isn’t a minor matter. We never expected Huan Huan to do such a thing, you know? She became like this even though she was a kind child.
That’s the consequence of focusing solely on her studies. So, you’re just trying to criticize me indirectly? Is there a clash between their grades and their personality? Of course not. Are you saying that those who have good grades can bully others? What kind of logic is that?
It’s not because of that. It’s because she can’t bear the toil of the study. She’s just like a sapling. If you force her to bend in such a way, she’ll crack. She thinks it’s tough? What about Zi You?
Mi Tao is studying with Zhong Yi as well. But she didn’t crack at all. I know it now. You have some prejudices against me. You think I’m forcing your daughter to study. That’s why you’re criticizing me using this as an excuse. What are you saying?
You see the problem yourself, you know? Shouldn’t we treat this problem seriously? How did you know that I’m not treating this seriously? What else do you want me to do? I want the pork buns. Alright. Here are your pork buns. They’re over here. Huan Huan, these buns taste great.
It has your favourite filling in it. It contains pork and prawns. Here, have some of it. Come, drink your milk and grow tall. Let me open it for you. Alright, drink it. Drink it. Dad, Mum, look at my white beard. Look at his white beard. Dad, Mum, look at my white beard.
Wow, you have a white beard. Mum, take a picture of me. Finish your food. You’ll be late for school again, you know? Open your mouth. Alright. -It’s windy outside. -Take the jacket. Who are you? Doctor, I’m the mother of that child. I’m Yan Zi You’s mother. How’s his condition? -You… -Here.
I have our family portrait over here. I have my household register as well. Do you want to take a look? No need. It’s like this. We’ve given your child a thorough checkup. Currently, your child hasn’t contracted any diseases. We’ve discussed it with the psychiatrist as well.
He said your child is under tremendous mental pressure. So, in the future, you should alleviate the stress for him. You shouldn’t give him too much shock. We need to keep observing him. And he must go for his consultations in the future periodically. Alright. Huan Huan, what are you doing? Ms. Zhang.
Come, follow me. I have something to show you. The TV station crew told me to pass this to you. He wanted to thank you for your superb performance. -Are you happy? -Yeah. Let me take a picture for you. One, two, three. Let’s take a picture together. You look great when you smile.
Look at your adorable tiger tooth. How is it? Is it nice? Is it nice? Yeah. I’ll take a bite then. It’s delicious. Let me tell you a secret. What secret? I got my bonus last week. So, we have enough to splurge on food and other things.
In the future, just tell me what you want to eat. I’ll bring you there. I’m treating our class monitor to a meal today for always helping me out. You don’t need to thank me. It was my job. Our relationship is just like a ship captain and his assistant.
We couldn’t be a better couple. We’re also like a pilot and his wingman. It’s our future pilot, Mi Tao indeed. Let me give you an interview then. Ms. Wingman, how do you feel? Let me apologize to you first. I shouldn’t have criticized you so harshly back then. I should’ve spoken with you first.
Because you were always an optimistic and friendly girl. But I’m really curious about this. What exactly happened between you and Mi Tao? I thought you two were great friends? Actually, Mi Tao is a nice girl. I do like her initially. What happened afterward? After that, Mr. Zhong kept praising her.
When he praises her, he’ll criticize me. When he criticizes me, he praises her again. Mr. Zhong has never praised me before. He and Mum kept comparing me to Mi Tao. Mi Tao is smart, intelligent, and the best. I couldn’t catch up with her no matter how hard I try. Mum said
I have no right to become Mi Tao’s friend. It’s pretty good. Huan Huan and the rest stopped their bullying. I think Huan Huan knows her fault now. Maybe we aren’t great friends in the first place. Her family is so well-off. -But my family… -What’s wrong with your family?
Your family is great as well. Look, your parents are working so hard. Slowly… No, I mean the situation will get better for your family real soon. My parents said our business will thrive if we’re willing to work hard. Dad wants to expand his stall as well.
Mum is preparing to get a nursing certificate as well. -She’ll find a better job that way. -Yeah. Look, your parents are great. You’re excellent as well. I’m sure your family will do better when you grow up. So, Mi Tao, you don’t need to feel inferior because of your family’s status, understood?
Actually, I shouldn’t have pushed Huan Huan in the first place. After I think about it, I realized that there are many solutions to it. I just didn’t think of them. Let’s give Huan Huan some time. Actually, this isn’t the fault of you two. It’s our fault as teachers.
Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. The teachers shouldn’t make you guys compete with each other. So, if you think from her perspective, Huan Huan is pretty sad as well. I know. So, I’m not angry at her anymore. What a great girl. Do I really have no strengths at all?
Of course not. You have a great personality and you’re very caring. Everyone in our class likes you. You’re multi-talented as well. You’re great at singing and dancing. You even came in first place for the Little Host competition. The main thing is, I think you’re just like the sun.
We will feel invigorated when you’re by our side. -Really? -Are you suspecting me? When have I deceived you before? I think this is a testament to my true ability. When I first saw you, I felt that you were surrounded by a type of energy. I always felt that you could surprise us.
I’m sure you’ll surprise us even more in the future. So, don’t be afraid and set yourself free, my precious girl. This. The TV crew wanted me to pass this to you. This is an invitation to Lemon’s Winter Acting Camp. They’re doing a charity event at Baoshan, Yunnan.
They’re providing the children a chance to participate in a play. They’ll have fun while they practise for the play. Yunnan? I suppose it’s somewhere far away. It’s been a long time since I had a trip to somewhere far away. I’m sure the sky over there will look better.
You will have the chance to go there. As long as your eyes have the ability to discover beauty, you’ll be able to enjoy the scenery wherever you go. You’re back? Come in. Why did you wear your slippers out? Mum, I love the food you make.
Mum, I’m done with my homework. Can I go out and play? Dear, you look so beautiful today. We mustn’t waste your makeup, am I right? Go away. You’ll scald yourself, you know? -Go away! -I don’t want to. I’m sorry. You can continue. Dear. Do you want to ask your students
If they’re willing to attend my tuition classes? I want students with good grades only. Those with bad grades can stay out. No way. We can talk about it after you get your teaching pass. Even if you do obtain your teaching pass, you should recruit your students with your own ability.
Fine, I knew our angel is righteous. Do you want some dried mangoes? This is a big piece. Come. Let me ask you something. When we went to buy our rings last time, I told you that the key to education is encouragement. Did you encourage your students? Of course I did.
Look at their grades. Do you think I was doing something else? I spoke with Xia Huan Huan yesterday. Do you know Xia Huan Huan and Mi Tao had an argument? They’re just children. I’m sure it’s not a big deal. You’re so paranoid. So, you did it on purpose?
You praised Mi Tao on purpose in order to provoke Huan Huan and you’re belittling and berating Huan Huan unconsciously so that Huan Huan can get better grades? You actually realized that? This is a great way, you know? It’s very effective. Look at how motivated Huan Huan is right now.
This is what you call prescribing the right medicine. Do you know that they fell out with each other? Now, Huan Huan is bullying Mi Tao in school every day. I didn’t expect that. You didn’t expect that? Are you sure about that? I think you just don’t care at all.
Your method has harmed the two children. Now, Yan Zi You is facing some mental problems as well. He just went to see a psychiatrist this afternoon, you know? Wait… You’re saying it’s my fault now? Do you despise everything I’m doing right now? You dislike everything I did, right?
Don’t you think you’re being too paranoid over all these matters? The three children in your class are facing different problems. As their class teacher, is it wrong for me to ask about their condition? Wait, Huan Huan’s mother came up with this idea. I’m just the executor. Why are you blaming me for everything?
As parents, they want their children to succeed in life. I understand that. But as a teacher, you should set your own boundaries. Look at you, you’re adding oil to the flame. As a teacher, you should stay strong to your principles. It’s fine as long as the doctor says there’s nothing wrong with him.
He’s still a child. They have wild imaginations. I’m sure it’s fine. The doctor said I mustn’t give him any shock. He doesn’t even want to see me right now. I’m his mother. But now, I’m the one who’s triggering his condition. Are they still staying with your in-laws? They didn’t come back?
Anyway, I will never go and bring them back. That Yan Peng is too much. When a couple argues with each other, usually, it’s the wife who will return to her family. But, look at him. I’m used to it already. Whenever I argue with his parents, he’ll always side with his parents.
He harbours grudges against me. He thinks that I’m the one who has harmed Zi You. Now, even Zi You is… He’s still a child. He said all those words out of spite. Don’t take it to heart. He’s your biological son. How could you hate him? Ever since he was born,
I was the one who handled everything. He was this small when he was born. He was like a kitten. And now, he’s a primary school student. I was always worried about him. He said he was exhausted. Does he think I’m not exhausted? Does he think he’s suffering more than me?
It’s the same for all mothers. All mothers will be worried for their children until their death. Lan Lan, you’re here? Uncle Nan. Why are you crying? It’s the same for both of us. We were destined to lead a rough life. I overheard the conversation between you two just now. Lan Lan,
I have a suggestion. It might not be correct. Just treat it as a reference, okay? Please tell me. No matter how close our relationship is, it needs to have a gap. Just like what people always say, if you have a handful of sand, and if you grab them tightly, they’ll slip away.
If you want to keep the sand in your hand, you need to loosen your grip. I understand now. Actually, I… I’m pretty afraid. I’m afraid that my relationship with Zi You will be done for if this continues. Yes. You should loosen your grip then. Just try it. Your Uncle Nan is right.
The world still revolves without you. You should loosen your grip. Give it a try. Our HQ will send their employees for training every year. My leader wanted me to attend the training before. I didn’t attend it as I had to take care of Zi You. Now that it has come to this,
Maybe this is a chance for me. Chinese New Year will arrive soon. But now, you’re going on a business trip? My husband and son aren’t home anyway. There’s no one at home when I return home from work every day. Celebrating Chinese New Year is meaningless for me. I’ll leave for some time.
Everyone can have a break as well. -Hello, Ms. Zhang. -Sit properly. [Hello, Ms. Zhang. I’m Zi You’s mother.] From today onwards, I’ll be away on a business trip for two weeks. I’ll leave Zi You’s study to his father. Please tell the other teachers about this, okay? Alright, Zi You’s mother.
Those are the points that we wanted to mention. The market is unpredictable. As a frontliner, we need to list down the ways to assess the mentality of our consumers. If anyone else has a better example, you’re welcome to share them with me. Alright, let’s continue. This is how we divide our zones.
Everyone, please take a close look at it. First, let’s take a look at Zone A. Has anyone discovered the uniqueness of Zone A? It’s at the main spot for our shop… Have you guys seen the news? Someone caught pneumonia at the seafood market in Wuhan again. I don’t think it’s pneumonia.
They say it’s a new type of coronavirus. All types of viruses appear when the weather is cold. There are countless viruses in the world, you know? Yeah. So, after I thought about it, as their class teacher, I think I should tell their parents about this. Zhong Yi is too much this time.
[Honestly speaking, he’s being too much] [to Huan Huan when she’s that young.] She has been suffering in silence for a long time. She did all those unspeakable actions because she couldn’t stand it anymore. Thank you, Ms. Zhang. Our child doesn’t tell us much when they’re at this age.
Now that I know the cause, I know how to console her. [I’ve spoken with Huan Huan at school.] Her mood is much better nowadays. [I’ll contact you if anything happens again.] Alright. Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Alright. That’s all for now. You guys are back? Have you eaten? We had some hamburgers.
Why are you guys so late today. Mr. Zhong wasn’t willing to let me go home. Li Li, why don’t we go to visit my mother during Chinese New Year? We can visit her during the holiday. My hometown is a scenic spot. Our children can relax over there.
That’s great! It’s been a long time since I’ve visited Grandma. -I want to go as well. -You see? Why didn’t you think this through? They still have tuition classes during their holiday. They’ve been studying for the entire year. Just let them relax for a moment. Besides, Chinese New Year will come soon.
Why don’t we cancel their tuition classes for now? How could we cancel them? They need to study during holidays to catch up with others. No top student will go on holidays during holidays. Mr. Zhong had sent me their schedule for the winter break. I’ll send it to you. Take a look.
We’ll accompany them in turn during the weekends. What kind of schedule is this? They have classes from the start of the holiday until the end? They don’t have classes during New Year Eve and New Year. What kind of holiday is this?
I told you already, they need to study during holidays to catch up with others. To catch up with who? There will always be someone better. When will they stop chasing others? Why must they compete with others? In order to acquire better grades, you’re setting a goal that she can never achieve
And criticizing her non-stop, do you think this is education? This is how you tame a beast! What do you mean by this? Ms. Zhang told me everything. I… When I suggest this idea to Zhong Yi, I didn’t expect this to happen. But, their grades are getting better.
You were the one who suggested this idea? Do you think this is what a mother should do? Huan Huan, bring your brother to your room. Let’s make things clear in front of our children! From tomorrow onwards, they’ll stop attending Zhong Yi’s classes. It’s fine even if their grades are bad.
It’s fine even if they can’t attend university. At most I’ll support them forever. And, you need to apologize to Huan Huan. Can you stop being so childish? You’re over 30 years old now. What makes you think that you can support them forever? Why must they rely on their parents forever?
-Nan Li, don’t you know how to stop? -Yes, I can’t stop. Aren’t you afraid that they’ll hate you if you stop right now? I’m not afraid. I’m their father. They can grow up healthily without worries under my care. Why should I be afraid?
Why must we avoid the responsibilities that we’re supposed to take on? And, if someone blames their parents for their lives, that means they’re failures in their lives! What do you mean by that? It’s exactly what you’re thinking of. You’re still upset over your father’s affair.
You couldn’t punish the third wheel and you aren’t doing well in your career. You want to make a comeback with your children. I do understand that. I’ve given in to you plenty of times. The problem is you’re completely out of your mind right now!
You’ve been wanting to say that for a long time, right? -You finally said it out. -I did want to say it out for a long time. Think about it. Even if your parents can lead a happy life together, does it mean that you’ll lead a perfect life?
Even if our children get into Qinghua University and surpass Yan Zi You, do you think you’ve won against Tian Yu Lan? You’re unhappy with your life, yet you insist on finding trouble with your parents and children. You’re not willing to see yourself as the cause of the problem.
Our children are not tools for you to make a comeback! You’re completely out of your mind, you know that? Fine, I’m the cause of everything, am I right? -It’s none of your business at all. -Of course it’s none of my business! You really think it’s none of your business?
Do you think you have a great relationship with your parents? Your father didn’t want to see you even on the verge of his death! You and your mother are just like strangers! Visit your mother like a normal family? Do you think you have a normal family?
People visit their family in order to relax! Do you think it’s the same for you? That’s why you’re travelling between two extreme points. You dote on your children so much that you forgot about your principles! Look at how spoiled Huan Huan is! Don’t you think you’re a failure? Fine, it’s all my fault.
Just treat this as an unreasonable request, okay? I beg you. Can you please let our children off? Just for a moment? This is a great card. You can request for an unreasonable request if you have this card. Really? I felt like I’ve struck the lottery.
Why are you crying? Go to your room and do your homework! You didn’t know how to answer this back then, right? She’s explaining it to you. You better listen closely. The live stream lessons are great. Their explanations are concise and clear. If I could attend these types of lessons in the past,
I would’ve gotten to Qinghua University. -[See you in the next lesson.] -Goodbye, teacher. You understand now, right? Do it now, okay? Check his homework. Language writing book. This is a textbook. Your writing book. You’re done with it. Not bad at all. English? Dictation for English words. Why isn’t this completed? Complete this later.
Extra math questions after class. Why? What’s going on? Extra English questions… I forgot about it. Give it to me. Brother. Brother. How could you forget the entire thing? You need at least an hour to complete this, you know? You have Mathematics, English, and this as well? You don’t want to sleep?
-I told you I forgot about it. -I remind you every morning. I told you to complete all your homework when you get home. The tuition class in Ze Shu has been cancelled. Why can’t you complete these homework on time? It’s all because of you. You don’t know anything.
I had to use Zuoyebang and wait for the teachers to explain them to me. You’re blaming it on me now? It’s because I’m not capable enough. If I’m capable enough, I wouldn’t need to depend on you. Stop finding excuses. -You better do it. -Peng Peng. Don’t stress the child out.
Come, have some fruits. Have some apples. How many times have I told you? You shouldn’t drink cold water, understood? Do you want some warm milk? I want something cold to calm my mind. I’ll have a heart attack if I have to guide Zi You every day.
I wonder how Tian Yu Lan got through this. In the past, Zi You had to complete homework from the tuition class as well. And she needs to do the laundry and cook for us. She had to serve us. I’m sure she isn’t a human. You only feel sorry for your wife.
What about your mother? Of course I do. Both of you are noble women, okay? Did she call you? Did you call her then? She didn’t pick up my call. But she did reply my message. But she didn’t reply much. I guess she’s really angry this time.
I guess she’s serious about having a divorce with me. I think I’ll stay here and feed on my parents until death. Your father told you to get a divorce out of spite. As grandparents, we’re concerned about our grandchild. Tian Yu Lan mustn’t force Zi You anymore.
If not, she’ll regret it in the future. I know you guys are anxious about him. But she’s his mother. That means she’s more anxious than you guys. You guys have spoken the meanest words to her. In the end? I’m the one who needs to coax her, you know? Mum.
I told you before. My son is the smartest. One, two, three. Mum, why are you registering more classes for me? Mum, I promise you. If you let me play football, I’ll do my best in my studies. Mum is the best. Long live Mum! Why did you buy so many things?
They’re just some daily necessities. I’m stocking up our goods. The supermarket will be very crowded during Chinese New Year. -Someone is here. -Coming! Coming! -Auntie, your noodles are here. -Alright. Thank you, young man. -Can you bring it in for me? -No problem. Put them over here.
-The kitchen is over there. Put it there. -Alright. -Sure. -That’s right. -Auntie, I’ll put it here. -Alright. -Thank you. -Let me bring them in. -There’s more? -Yeah, there’s more.
