Love Is Sweet
Episode 24
Smells so good!
Right?
Don't touch it.
I haven't washed it yet.
Then wash it for me. I want to eat it
Trying to act cute?
You don’t like it?
I like it so much.
Yuanyuan.
-How come you’re cooking? -Mrs. Jiang.
You’re our guest!
Go to the living room and rest!
It’s fine, Mrs. Jiang.
It’s fine.
You should rest in the living room.
Just let me do the cooking.
Yuanyuan,
it’s not easy for you to visit us.
I can’t let you work.
Hurry! Go to the living room and rest!
It’s fine, Mrs. Jiang.
Now I’m in a relationship with Jun.
It’s natural that I...
In a relationship?
I… I mean a working relationship.
Right.
So I’ll always come to disturb you,
and scrounge free meals off.
I hope you won’t mind it.
What are you talking about?
I’ll be very happy
if you can visit me every day.
Mom, just let him do it.
He’s really good at cooking.
You can take a rest.
Go take a rest.
-Look at you. You're so lazy! -Mrs. Jiang.
-Go take a rest. -Thank you.
It’s fine. It’s fine.
Wait for me!
Mrs. Jiang, just take the dishes to the table,
and get some rest.
Ok.
Just leave it to me.
Ok. Ok.
You’re so lazy.
Yuan is still busy cooking for us.
Mom,
how do you know I like this dish?
Put it down. Put it down.
Go help Yuan.
Eat it later.
Why do you come here?
Anything I can help with?
Is it delicious?
So delicious.
Delicious, right?
Don't just eat. Crack the eggs.
It tastes good.
Good, right?
Right?
Coming!
The soup is also ready!
Here.
Looks great!
Be careful.
It smells great!
Right, Mrs. Jiang?
Smells great!
Yuanyuan, come here.
Coming.
Here.
Let me help you.
So many dishes!
Here.
Mrs. Jiang,
happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
-Happy New Year! -Here, Jun!
I wish my Jun and Yuanyuan
a happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
-Happy New Year! -Good luck!
It tastes great!
Mrs. Jiang, let’s dig in.
Try the food I cooked.
See if you like it.
Yuanyuan,
how did you make this dish?
Seems Jun also likes it very much.
This one...
It's very easy to cook.
At home, I always…
Mr. Yuan always cooked for us
during our team activities.
He can cook a lot of dishes,
and all sorts of cuisines.
Like sweet and sour pork, and pork ribs, etc.
Is it right?
Right. Right.
Mrs. Jiang,
if you like these dishes, I can always come
to cook them for you.
I can also write down the recipes,
so you can refer to them.
That’d be great.
Thank you.
My pleasure.
Here, Mrs. Jiang.
Try this.
Thank you, Yuanyuan.
You’re welcome.
Here.
I just tried it. It’s delicious.
Eat more.
You should eat.
Yuanyuan,
I hope you can come often
when you have time.
I like you.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
I still remember
you often came to eat with us when you were little.
I know
you and Jun were good friends.
If Jun’s speech notes hadn’t been stolen,
Jun wouldn’t have gone to the hospital.
If she hadn’t gone to the hospital,
she wouldn’t have transferred to another school.
If she hadn’t transferred to another school,
you would’ve met each other before you went abroad.
It was really a pity.
The one who stole Jun's speech notes
is the one to blame.
He's the most hateful person.
Mrs. Jiang,
speaking of this,
I think that
he didn't mean to steal the speech notes.
Can you please not hate him?
It just came in my mind,
so I complained it to you.
Every time when I thought of this,
I thought he was very hateful.
Yuanyuan,
what are you doing?
Get up!
Mrs. Jiang,
I want to confess one thing to you.
The one
who took away Jiang Jun’s speech notes
was me.
I...
Mom! Mom! Mom!
It really wasn’t on purpose.
He took it away by mistake.
He really...
He really regrets doing that a lot, right?
-I... -Right?
I regret it very much, Mrs. Jiang!
It really wasn’t on purpose!
You...
I regret it very much!
I won’t get up
if you don’t forgive me today!
Please forgive me!
I beg you.
I...
I beg you.
Yuan,
come.
Get up. I forgive you.
Hurry. Get up.
Sit down. Sit down.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang,
you really have forgiven me?
I’ll drink a toast to you.
I promise
I’ll do my best
to protect Jiang Jun from now on.
I’ll finish it.
Put it down first.
You think I am
such a narrow-minded person?
It’s been so many years.
I won’t hold a grudge against you.
Mom! Mom! Don’t...
Here.
Yuan, let me drink a toast to you.
I'll finish it first.
Don't you want to drink?
I will.
I will drink it, Mrs. Jiang.
I’ve finished it.
Here’s a second
glass of wine.
Because you’re Jun’s leader.
Now you’re a grown-up.
I believe
you won’t harm Jun anymore.
Here.
I’ll finish it first.
Mom!
Don't you want to drink, Yuan?
I will.
I’ll drink it.
I’ve finished it, Mrs. Jiang.
And the third
glass of wine
is to the New Year.
Mom!
New Year, new look.
Mom!
After today,
the old story will be written off,
and we’ll turn the page.
Yuan.
Happy New Year!
Don't you want to drink?
I will.
I will drink it.
I will drink it up!
I’ve finished it.
Jun, dig in.
Are you alright?
I need to use the bathroom.
Sorry, Mrs. Jiang.
Let me go with you.
Sit down.
But... Mom, he...
Sit down.
But...
Mom, he's...
He’s going to throw up!
Sit down!
Li,
why did you come here?
Aren’t you on holiday?
I had nothing to do.
So I came to see
if there’s anything I can help with.
Anything you can help with?
How about watching the shop for me?
Of course. You can go back.
I was kidding.
I’m serious.
Go enjoy the festival.
Perhaps later.
But I need to get some sleep first.
You know what?
A young man
came here to drink around midnight yesterday,
but half a bottle got him drunk.
We went to great lengths to send him back.
I think he must be heartbroken.
We had to comfort him for quite a while.
He’s really spoony.
Li,
what’re you mumbling?
Nothing.
I mean he’s a poor guy.
Right.
What an unpleasant New Year Eve.
Then please watch the shop for me.
I’ll get some sleep and come back soon.
Just go.
Thank you.
Happy New Year!
Xu Li, don't cry.
You’re working.
Don’t cry! Don’t cry! Don’t cry!
Don’t cry!
Eat something and you’ll feel better.
Just eat something.
I’m very happy.
I’ll eat something and start working.
I’ll work hard.
Don't cry.
Yuanyuan.
Mrs. Jiang.
Thank you.
My pleasure.
You’re my guest, but you’re washing the plates.
It doesn’t matter.
Don’t mind what I did just now.
Here.
Have some slices of apple.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
Is it sweet?
So sweet.
The apple is sweet.
Have you ever thought
about having a sweet relationship?
Mrs. Jiang,
actually,
I’m already in a very sweet relationship.
What?
You have a girlfriend?
Mrs. Jiang,
actually, I...
Stop eating!
Wash these plates as well!
What did I do to deserve this?
I’m just in a relationship with your daughter.
I went to buy vegetables.
I did the cooking.
I drank so much wine,
and now I have to wash the plates.
I'm such a wonderful son-in-law!
Mothers-in-law are always right.
Mothers-in-law are the best.
Mothers-in-law can’t be wrong.
This is my job without doubt!
Jun,
have some slices of apple.
Thank you, Mom.
Jun,
our neighbor Mrs. Li’s son is coming back.
Do you want to meet him?
Mom,
don’t always try to arrange blind dates for me.
Look how old you are now!
I hope you can find a boyfriend.
I’ll feel at ease if he can take care of you.
I could take very good care of myself
even when I was alone in college.
Just don't worry about it.
Stop checking the phone! This is important!
Jun,
Yuan already has a girlfriend.
Do you know that?
Ah?
Surprised?
Why did you take him back then?
Drive him off immediately!
Honey,
what should I do?
It seems that
Jun fell in love with a man
who already has a girlfriend.
And that man is the son of the Yuan family.
Seems they’re very close to each other.
But Yuan told me
he already has a girlfriend.
Bah!
He's such a scumbag!
Honey,
can you come tonight
and take him away?
Have some warm water.
What did my mom say to you just now?
She was so angry and told me to drive you away.
Mrs. Jiang brought a plate of apple slices to me
and asked me to eat.
She asked me if it was sweet.
I said
it’s as sweet as my girlfriend.
Right.
Then she got irritated.
I wasn’t able to finish my words. I…
Mrs. Jiang.
Yuan,
you have to sleep in the living room tonight.
Would you mind?
No need, Mom.
He can sleep in my room.
I can sleep with you.
You’re a girl.
How can he sleep in your room?
Right!
How can a guy
sleep in a girl’s room?
Mrs. Jiang,
the living room is very cozy.
The sofa is very comfortable.
I’ll sleep here.
Mom.
This is a quilt for summer.
He’ll catch a cold.
I won’t!
I’m very fit, Mrs. Jiang.
I... I’ll be fine.
This quilt is very thick.
I’m ok with it.
Thick? You’ll…
Jiang Jun,
Yuan is fit.
Don't worry about him.
Get up.
Go sleep in your room.
But, Mom, the quilt is too thin.
Get up!
Mrs. Jiang, you should go to sleep, too.
I... I...
Yuan,
good night.
Good night, Mrs. Jiang.
Mothers-in-law are always right.
You scared me a lot!
Why did you come?
I was afraid you may catch a cold,
so I brought you a quilt.
I’m leaving.
No!
Warm the quilt for me.
I’m cold.
My mom will come out!
I missed you.
So annoying.
Here.
Is it warm?
Good night.
It’s 4 am!
Why did you set an alarm at 4 am?
My mom will get up soon.
We’ll be done for it if she sees us.
One more kiss.
I’m leaving.
Come here.
Mrs. Jiang,
I... I can explain this to you.
Move aside!
It’s not your turn to speak!
Jun,
why didn’t you listen to me?
Why were you so stubborn?
What did I do, Mom?
How come I was stubborn?
You’re really driving me crazy?
Don’t you know he already has a girlfriend?
I can tell you like him.
But do you know he doesn't intend
to break up with his girlfriend?
Jun,
you should change your mind now.
Don't let him ruin you!
Mrs. Jiang,
Jun is my girlfriend.
We’re in a relationship, Mom.
Where am I?
Mom!
I can’t see anything.
Mom!
Am I sleepwalking?
Mom!
One sheep.
Two sheep.
Three sheep.
Your mom sleepwalks?
I've never seen this before.
Are you also sleepwalking?
Who knows?
Honey,
I had it all wrong!
Yuanyuan is not a scumbag.
He’s Jun’s boyfriend.
Honey,
don’t come to take him away then.
Morning, Mrs. Jiang.
Yuanyuan.
Come here! Come here!
Come here!
Have breakfast! Come!
Mrs. Jiang, what a feast this is!
Mom, this is too exaggerating.
Not at all. Not at all.
Just a simple breakfast.
-Simple? -Yuanyuan,
you haven’t eaten with us for a long time.
I don't know what you like to eat.
So I cooked a little more.
See,
the Japanese style, Chinese style,
and the Western style.
Eat whatever you want.
Tell you what,
young men
must eat many eggs.
They’re very nutritious, you know?
So,
I’ve cooked some eggs for you.
See,
the quail eggs, soy eggs, boiled eggs,
preserved eggs, fried eggs, poached eggs,
and the most important one,
very nutritious raw eggs.
Here, Yuanyuan,
drink it up.
I...
Don't you want to drink?
Mom,
let him eat something first.
Ok. Ok.
Eat something first. Drink that later.
Ok.
You must drink it. It’s very nutritious.
Come, Yuanyuan.
Hurry.
Here.
Mrs. Jiang,
thank you so much.
But, to be honest,
I’d be very content
if I can eat some
rice noodles that you cook.
Yuanyuan,
how could I possibly forget this?
Wait! Wait!
There are really rice noodles!
My mom is crazy.
Maybe you’re her own child.
I’m going nuts!
What is that?
Drink it.
Very nutritious rice noodles!
Mom,
what did you put in the rice noodles?
Nothing really.
Just a few ingredients.
Chinese Angelica, cartialgenous, sea cucumbers,
Ganoderma lucidum,
and most importantly, the turtle and lamb kidneys.
Here.
Have a taste.
My mom has put her most treasured ingredients
in the rice noodles.
You should eat them all.
Here, Yuanyuan.
Eat up.
Eat them all.
Ok.
Come.
Which should I start to eat first?
Eat the ginseng first.
It’s very nutritious.
I better eat the rice noodles first.
Tell you what, the soup is very nutritious.
You should drink it all.
It's delicious, Mrs. Jiang!
Delicious, right?
Come.
Eat some eggs.
Come.
Eat more, Yuanyuan.
You have to eat more.
Don’t touch them!
He can't eat so many eggs!
Am I your daughter?
Girls shouldn’t eat so much.
You can eat some vegetables.
Eat the vegetable and the salad.
Come, Yuanyuan.
Eat more.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang, come.
Eat with me.
Eat a steamed bun.
Mrs. Jiang,
the rice noodles are very delicious.
The taste is the same as before.
Yuanyuan,
in the future,
I’ll cook
all kinds of dishes for you.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
I’ll cook for you next time.
I’m very good at cooking.
Wait a sec. I have a phone call.
Hello?
Is it delicious?
Do you have time? Come play mahjong with us.
I can’t today.
I have a guest.
Yuanyuan, right?
Let him join us. We need one more player.
We can catch up by the way.
Ok, Cuiping.
Ok.
See you in the afternoon.
Ok.
Yuanyuan,
after the meal,
I hope you can complete a glorious mission.
Me?
What is it?
You’ll know after the meal.
Dig in. Dig in.
Ok.
Delicious, right?
I forgot the most important dish!
The “Buddha’s Temptation”.
I’ll go get it for you.
Wait.
The “Buddha’s Temptation”.
What’re you doing?
Your mom is going to play mahjong with her friends.
I need to show off my skills.
It’s just a mahjong game, alright?
My mom already likes you very much.
You don’t understand.
It’s true that
sons-in-law know their mothers-in-law better.
Who’s the son-in-law here?
You’re so shameful.
Listen,
don't show up in the afternoon.
Otherwise you’ll disrupt our plan.
What the hell is going on?
Am I a member of the Jiang family?
I’ll weep this out to my dad!
Be good.
This is more like it.
Yuanyuan,
your watch looks very expensive.
Not really.
Green Dragon.
This is just a
mid-priced watch.
Yuanyuan,
I wonder if you have
bought a house in Shanghai.
What I’m trying to say is that
you’re young,
and you’re working in a different city.
You need a house to live a steady life.
Right?
Right. Right.
You're right, Auntie.
I’ve bought two houses in Shanghai.
But
just two ordinary
commodity houses.
Right. Right.
Yuanyuan's two houses are very small.
Yuanyuan,
you’re so young,
but you’ve bought two houses in Shanghai!
Two houses.
Did your parents buy them for you?
No, Auntie.
My parents are living abroad.
-They don’t plan to move back for now. -Abroad.
The two houses
are for my work.
I bought them myself.
Then you must be
really well-paid in your company!
It depends on the projects.
If they’re small projects,
I won’t get paid very well.
Right. Right.
If they’re large projects,
he’ll earn a bit more.
Not much really.
Nine Dots!
I also have!
Yuanyuan,
you can’t play tricks.
Two Dots!
Wanjun,
let's switch seats later.
You can’t sit next to Yuanyuan.
Mrs. Jiang is just lucky.
Three Characters!
One Dot!
One Dot?
Two Bamboos!
Two Bamboos! I won! I won!
I won!
So great!
You are playing high!
Yuanyuan, it’s right what I needed!
I was too careless.
You're so lucky.
Here's the money!
Shujuan,
you’re so narrow-minded.
Yuanyuan was so busy with work.
He didn’t have time to practice playing mahjong.
How could he know how to play tricks?
Auntie, you’re right.
I was too busy.
I didn't have time to play mahjong.
So I came today
to learn from you.
Please don't loathe me.
-Not at all! -Not at all!
That’s great. That’s great.
Let’s start then.
Come. Come.
Eight Characters!
I won!
-It's a Flush! -You played high!
You are playing high!
Give me the money!
Aunties, you're so lucky!
Seven!
I won!
Wanjun, I won again!
So great!
You’re so lucky! Here’s the money!
Nine Bamboos!
I won again!
Give me money!
Okay. Let’s give her money.
Seems I won this time?
Aunties, please help me take a look.
Did I win?
Yes, you did.
You won! You won!
He really won! He won!
You won! You won! You won!
I won?
I finally won!
Take the money.
Keep the change.
I’ve won
a lot of money from you today.
I actually start to feel embarrassed.
You’re too kind, Auntie.
I was too busy normally.
I don’t really know how to play mahjong.
It’s my honor
to play mahjong with you today.
I knew it.
Yuanyuan’s of good character.
He lost so much money,
but he didn’t pull a long face,
or become anxious.
I’m sure
he’ll be a very good husband!
Yuanyuan,
I’m a straight shooter.
I’ll just be straightforward with you.
Tell you what,
-my daughter also works in Shanghai. -Wait! Wait!
Quiet! Quiet!
I gathered us together today,
right?
Of course I should go first.
Yuanyuan.
-My daughter... -Cuiping.
Cuiping.
Sorry to interrupt.
I know
what questions you want to ask.
Yuanyuan
is indeed a bit more outstanding
than some young men.
But,
he’s in a relationship with my Jun.
They’re with each other now.
Really?
You said yesterday that
Yuanyuan is not Jun’s boyfriend.
Shujuan,
I was too shy to say it yesterday.
I already have a girlfriend.
That’s good. That’s good.
I need to go back to cook.
Auntie, why are you leaving?
Let's continue.
We’re leaving. We’re leaving.
Have a good time.
See you, Aunties.
Let's play again next time!
Let's play again next time, Aunties.
Come again.
How was it, Mrs. Jiang?
Did I perform well enough?
Very successful!
Actually, I knew she wanted Four Dots
when I threw it away.
Mrs. Jiang, wait a minute.
Hello.
How much is it? I’ll buy two bags.
20 yuan per bag.
40 yuan for two bags.
Ok.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Yuanyuan,
can you eat so many?
Jun loves to eat roasted chestnuts.
I think probably you love to eat them, too.
So I bought more.
When Jun was a kid,
her dad always bought roasted chestnuts for her.
Right.
Brother Yuanyuan,
you're awesome!
Do you want me to teach you?
But,
you’ll have to call me
Brother Yuanyuan three times first.
Jun.
Dad.
Guess what I bought for you.
Chestnuts!
Thank you, Dad.
Eat the chestnuts with Yuanyuan.
I’ll go cook rice noodles for you.
Brother Yuanyuan, let’s eat chestnuts.
I won’t.
How does it taste?
Is it sweet?
A little.
Seems you don't really like chestnuts.
I like them very much.
Why don’t
you peel them for me?
I’ll be responsible for eating them.
Why would I peel them for you?
Because my hands are small and weak.
My dad always peeled them for me.
But now he went to cook.
Then how did you
peel that one just now?
I bit it.
Alright.
Well,
call me Brother Yuanyuan three times
and I’ll peel them for you.
Brother Yuanyuan! Brother Yuanyuan! Brother Yuanyuan!
Give them to me!
Here you are.
Is it sweet?
Yuanyuan,
Roasted Chestnuts
thank you.
Thank you for caring about Jun’s feelings.
After her father died,
seemed she grew up suddenly overnight.
She never cried again.
I don't know
if she really has become stronger,
or she was just pretending.
But I know that
she was afraid I may worry about her.
But that made me
worry about her even more.
Now she has you.
I can feel at ease.
Mrs. Jiang, it’s my responsibility.
Yuanyuan,
can you promise me one thing?
Mrs. Jiang,
go ahead.
I hope that
no matter how
your relationship changes
or what happens between you two
in the future,
you should always treat her nicely
and not be the one who makes her cry.
Mrs. Jiang,
don’t worry.
I’ll take good care of her,
and won't let anyone bully her.
In this lifetime,
I’ll only make her laugh,
not cry.
Thank you, Yuanyuan.
That street stall, right?
I haven’t eaten them for a long time.
Stop.
It’s my job to peel them.
You’re the best.
Come here.
Try it.
How does it taste?
So delicious.
Delicious, right?
Is it sweet?
Sweet.
Yuanyuan,
You’re spoiling her too much.
Mrs. Jiang,
this is how young people are in a relationship.
You won’t understand.
Mrs. Jiang,
girlfriends
are supposed to be spoiled.
Let me peel one for you as well.
Yuanyuan,
no need.
I can peel it myself.
It’s fine. It’s fine.
Come. Try it.
See if it tastes good.
Thank you, Yuanyuan.
You’re welcome.
Here. Have some oranges.
Ok.
Get me some water. I’m choking.
Eat slowly.
Here you are.
Jun, be careful!
It’s fine, Mrs. Jiang.
It wasn’t on purpose.
You’re so careless!
Come, take it off. I’ll dry it for you.
Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.
You’re so clumsy!
It’s fine.
This kid.
Are you alright?
Is there anything in your pocket?
Let me see.
I’m fine. Wipe your clothes.
Look what you did!
Are you alright?
I’m fine.
Yuan Shuai
You're so clumsy.
MH?
Yuan Shuai?
What's with this?
This... This...
Jiang Jun,
come with me.
This...
This... This...
Jun,
why didn’t you tell me the truth?
Mom, I was afraid you may get worried.
When you wanted to go to Shanghai,
I didn't agree with your decision.
Working in big cities is very stressful,
and there are all sorts of people.
But you said
you wanted to have a try there.
I didn’t stop you.
I didn’t want you to do a stressful job.
But you majored in a related subject at college.
So I approved it, right?
But why did you ignore
what I told you?
People in places like MH are very sinister.
I don’t want to hear this name in my entire life.
Can’t you listen to me for once?
Especially your dad...
Mom,
I used to think the investment banks were inhuman.
But after 6 months working there,
I found it’s not about the industry,
but the people in the industry.
And I really love this job very much.
Say no more!
Quit the job when you’re back.
I won’t compromise with you on this matter.
