[Meet Yourself]
[Episode 21]
Huang.
Please give the salaries
to the construction team.
Mr. Xie,
although I felt sorry,
please help me to transfer this hotel.
Okay.
I'll do it.
Don't worry.
I...
I don't know how to thank you.
When I selected the site,
you've been helping me.
You helped me a lot,
and I left such a mess to let you deal with.
Don't say that.
We just did what we can.
I'm sorry we can't help you anymore.
Hold on.
It will be better.
Thank you.
Okay.
Don't be so emotional.
Just hold it.
But I'm sad.
I know you're sad.
But it's not good crying back to the village.
You're not sad?
Of course, I am.
I complained a few days ago.
Me, too.
I even scolded them.
You're too mean, Xie Zhiyao.
Do I also need to cry?
No.
You need to drive.
They are so bad.
Huang is an official here,
so she should help them.
But it's none of your business.
You've been helping them,
but they blamed you.
Wait, Hu...
Just stop.
Let me tell you what he will do next.
He'll ask you to transfer the hotel.
After that,
they'll give the renovation costs
to the construction team.
You're in charge of it.
They're sure you can't leave them like that.
Hu, don't just blame them.
Just let me tell...
What is wrong with you?
Why couldn't I blame them?
You're mad.
His wife has cancer.
They resigned from their jobs in Shenzhen
and decided to open a homestay hotel here.
They thought they would live here.
At the beginning of the year,
his wife's legs felt painful.
They thought it was a calcium deficiency.
When they went to the hospital,
the doctor said it is bone cancer.
And it's in the mid-term.
After they discussed it,
they thought,
the money is needed here,
and they don't want to trouble us.
Then they decided to continue
building the homestay hotel,
and receive treatment in Shenzhen.
However,
their family knew about it.
They were worried.
His father had cerebral infarction,
and is living in ICU now.
The money was spent quickly every day.
They really met trouble.
Well,
misfortunes never come singly.
Why didn't you tell me early?
Before Mr. Xie said anything,
you started to blame them.
Mr. Xie wanted to interrupt you,
but you didn't listen.
Well done.
Let's go.
Well, do you think we need to donate some money?
Spray it again?
Damai, what are you doing?
I have blisters on my feet.
Two on each feet
and it's symmetric.
See?
Do we need to go tomorrow?
No.
Xie Zhiyao said Yang Guanjun will go there.
We don't need to go.
Hu and I told Auntie Feng,
we'll go there late.
Because the lunch tomorrow is,
roast pork.
You won't update the novel?
I'll write the novel
after putting the plaster on.
If you have no idea today,
you can't update tomorrow.
Don't worry, I've written more,
for two days to update.
Two days? That's quite enough.
Two days?
That's not enough to write the unit event
of investigating the water source.
Don't try to hide it.
I've noticed it.
Do you?
Nana will use three accounts to comment.
And Hongdou has two.
How did you know that?
It's simple.
Because these accounts
were registered at almost the same time,
and only commented on my novel.
Then how did you distinguish us?
By pet phrases and typing style.
When Nana sends messages,
she likes to use a wave sign and smile.
And her three accounts
are mainly used to blame those haters.
But I read her comments,
it's like,
your parents raised you,
do they want you to be an Internet troll here?
You're so mean.
You are the rubbish on the Internet,
and so on.
Although she commented a lot,
what she said is not aggressive at all.
The comments Hongdou wrote are like poems.
It feels ethereal,
and makes people think she is capable.
But you're not sure,
which point she praises.
For example,
in the writer's novel,
time is like a desert,
making people drained.
What's the key point of praising people?
That is to be straightforward, strong,
direct and praise as much as you can.
You should let the writer feel the power,
and let her feel sorry for you
if she didn't write 20,000 words.
I'm just kidding.
I didn't praise like that.
I just saw people praise like that.
I just blamed those haters.
I didn't write others.
It's you.
What's wrong?
All we did was in vain.
You knew it was us.
Actually,
although I knew it was you,
when I saw those encouraging comments,
and felt your care and love,
my heart was filled with courage and power.
And I've decided.
I won't look for a job.
I'll continue writing novels.
Really?
Yes.
I've started to write
the outline of my next novel.
So,
Barley Tea,
you won't stop writing?
I won't.
I'll continue.
We've been trapped in others' comments,
but we need to understand one thing.
When the flood comes to you,
you are drowned,
but it's not your fault.
That's right.
Where is my phone?
You didn't bring it here.
I didn't?
What I said just now is an aphorism.
An aphorism, you know?
That is the theme of the unit
of water source investigation.
I know what to write, dear sisters!
I'll go back and write.
Be careful.
Great!
♫ I've been longing, ♫
♫ to realize my dream. ♫
♫ The more you want it, ♫
♫ the more clumsy you are. ♫
♫ Your confusion, ♫
♫ my panic, ♫
♫ it is watching us, ♫
♫ but it said nothing. ♫
Dou said,
she picked the plums herself.
Then she packed them
in the orchard and sent them to me.
It's much cheaper than those in the market.
That's right.
It's also helping the orchard workers.
Guisheng, drive here.
I'll pack two boxes for Kexin.
There are plenty of plums.
I sent twenty boxes for you.
It's not too much, just about 50 kilograms.
You can make them into jam.
It's not expensive.
The fruits are cheap here.
Okay.
Make delicious food for me?
Just wash the plums first.
Okay, bye-bye.
[Nanxing's mom]
[Sister]
Hello.
You received it?
You want me to sell plums
at the metro entrance by sending me so many?
It's not too much.
You can give them to your friends,
to some relatives,
and Lingdang's teachers.
How's your vacation?
Good.
It's comfortable to stay here.
Really?
Are you hiding anything from me?
What?
But I feel there is something.
Fine, just try to feel it.
Okay, bye-bye.
How's it?
Did you get the result?
Sister Hongdou, can I quit math?
Of course not.
But I don't like math.
Why is that?
Eight plus nine.
Eight plus nine.
You can't figure out the result in 20 minutes?
Mom, don't talk so loudly.
I can hear you.
You can hear me?
Then do it again.
Come on.
Count.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
Eleven.
Twelve.
Thirteen.
Okay, stop.
There.
There is a finger, right?
Is my finger too short that you can't see it?
Mom, I saw it.
Don't be angry.
I'm not angry.
You can't figure out such a simple question.
What can you do in the future?
Don't look at me like that.
Just continue.
We'll stop when you can figure it out.
Do it!
Overcome difficulty.
Just help me this time.
Please.
Only this time.
Do it again,
understand?
♫ I've been alone ♫
♫ Into the unknown ♫
♫ Can I get a guide through the dark ♫
♫ I'm searching for ♫
♫ a meadow of mine ♫
♫ Till you came in with the breeze ♫
Why are there so many annoying things?
Nothing went on well.
How do you want to transfer the hotel?
It's not cheap.
Who will buy it?
If there is a Shaohua Bookstore in the village,
I can transfer the hotel to whomever I want.
What if they won't invest in a bookstore here?
Then I'll run the hotel myself.
Do you have money?
No.
Then how can you run it?
I'll go out to make money.
Just listen to what you said.
It seems money is like mushrooms,
it will grow after rain,
then you can make as much money as you want.
Why didn't I study hard back then?
If I went to college,
I could help you now.
You stayed here and opened a barbecue stand.
When I am hungry,
I don't need to go far to eat delicious food.
You can drink with me sometimes,
and listen to me,
this is helping me.
You're right.
People are relying on you.
Who can you rely on?
You have heavy pressure.
Everyone has pressure.
It's no big deal.
Okay,
come down.
Be careful.
Xu Hongdou ordered a takeout.
You can bring it to her.
What did she order?
I won't tell you.
She likes shrimp.
Take this.
She ordered that.
The eggplant.
A big one.
Can you shut up?
The vegetables.
Watch the fire when you're barbecuing.
Less oil...
You can do that.
Just hurry up.
Why are you standing outside the yard?
Yang Guanjun told me you drank wine.
I'm afraid you'll sleep in the alley,
so I'm here to pick you up.
You didn't have supper yet?
I did.
I ordered for Damai and Hu.
You drank a lot of wine.
Not too much.
Do you have wine?
How about drinking some with me?
Okay.
Let's go.
Your wine.
Milk?
You drank a lot tonight.
When granny sees you,
she'll worry about you.
Drink some milk.
You added sugar?
It's honey.
Are you okay?
I'm fine if you don't ask.
When you asked me,
I feel a little upset.
Well,
it's hard to say.
After meeting Li that day,
the boss of the homestay hotel,
I felt a little upset.
I can understand.
And I often met his wife.
She would treat us to a meal
every time we went there.
She said,
after the homestay hotel was built,
she'll invite her parents
to come here to enjoy life.
Although her kid is only two years old,
he can go to kindergarten in the town.
Even if they can't make much money,
the price is cheap here.
It can support the whole family.
But,
she is such a good person,
and so young.
Her kid is so little.
She still has a long way to go.
Why did she suddenly have cancer?
My mom told me,
there is no old or young on the way to death.
You never know
when and how a person leaves the world.
So,
when I think of this,
I feel,
a little afraid.
Afraid?
Well,
many people are relying on me now.
If I have a serious illness,
or have an accident,
and I suddenly died,
and leave such a mess for them,
what can they do?
When I think of this,
I feel,
I feel a little upset.
Fear, anxiety, scare,
and a sense of insecurity,
they surround me.
Do you think I thought too much?
I understand.
As a man,
I'm so sensitive.
Just ignore me.
Ignore me.
I can understand you.
I totally understand you.
Trust me.
It's like missing a step.
That,
anxiety,
fear,
uncertainty of future life,
without a sense of security.
It's like,
in the desert,
when you look around,
there is nothing,
and you don't know where to go.
I thought you can't understand such a feeling.
Let's go to my room.
Can you walk?
I can,
but is it too late now?
I want to show you something.
Close the door. Don't let the mosquitos in.
I want to share with you the story of my love.
You didn't let me see this,
why do you let me see it now?
I was not prepared before.
[Making friends]
[Today's Xie Zhiyao]
Xie Zhiyao, not too bad.
I'm just a not-too-bad person?
I was just starting to write it.
Why are you writing these?
It's for her.
Who is it?
Chen Nanxing.
Chen Nanxing is a girl?
It's not your ex-boyfriend?
She is the love of my life,
my best friend,
and will always be.
She is busy working,
so you wrote this for her?
She died,
because of cancer.
I can understand what you said.
And I might have
a deeper understanding than you.
The peer around you,
the one who has been companying you,
suddenly encountered a huge misfortune.
Our hearts will shake with that.
It's like being trapped in a nightmare.
It's like missing a step on the high ladder.
It's like a plane missing in radar.
It's like missing the direction in the desert.
It's like a polar bear sitting on melting ice,
and can't find the direction.
I can't tell people
my fear, anxiety,
and the doubt in life.
What am I?
Even my best friend,
her death made no difference to my life.
I'll go to work, go home,
go shopping and watch movies.
I would miss her when I was alone and sad.
♫ Listen to the rain
falling into the silent forest ♫
Her parents lost everything when she died.
I think...
I think I...
I'm not qualified to be sad
for a long time when I lost her.
Xu Hongdou.
The moral standard
you set for yourself is too strict.
Even feeling painful
and how long you'll be painful,
you should be qualified?
Maybe.
Nanxing said,
she wanted to come to Yunnan with me.
But at that time,
I don't want to delay my work.
I want to have a promotion.
Now here I am.
But see?
She is not here.
♫ The light and shadow of four seasons ♫
♫ I've seen the meteor
that lights up the night sky ♫
♫ When the wind rises,
the sky will be cloudless ♫
♫ The reflection of clouds, the changing moon
and the stars all over the sky ♫
♫ The lost footsteps will be gradually erased ♫
I'm fine.
♫ I've seen the meteor

♫ When the wind rises,

♫ Go to a windy place to meet you ♫
[Thank you for listening to Nanxing's story.]
[I feel happy to tell you this story.]
[Just take it as our secret, thank you.]
[I'm also happy. Sleep early, good night.]
Why did I say nothing at crucial moments?
I can't even comfort her.
So silly.
Barbecued meat sandwich.
Have a try.
How's it?
Not good.
The meat is too greasy,
and it's too sweet.
Strange taste.
And advantages?
The bread is soft and delicious.
It seems I should put less chocolate jam.
And the meat should be more scorched.
Come here tomorrow morning.
Let's continue.
Again?
Just take it as breakfast.
Don't waste it.
I won't come tomorrow.
I'll eat at home.
It seems you also said that yesterday.
Hi.
Mr. Xie.
Hello, my brother.
Morning.
- You're also here, Xiaxia.
- Morning.
I am being poisoned.
He is trying new dishes for me.
Good morning.
Morning.
Coffee?
I drank it at home.
Okay.
I'll show you something.
What is it?
The promotional video.
Sunzi sent it to me this morning.
So quick?
Are you ready?
[Come to a windy place]
Where is this place?
It's so beautiful.
There is Xinxin.
It's more than that.
Huang is the leading actress in it, okay?
♫ Enjoy the mountainous landscape at sunset ♫
♫ The raindrops on the roof
fall into the eyes secretly ♫
♫ The world is like a quiet island ♫
Qin.
There are your mom and Auntie Gui.
♫ Waiting for the seabirds
to call forth the ripples ♫
♫ Waiting for the sunlight to shine into
my heart across the lake ♫
♫ Set sail when it's windy ♫
♫ The reflection of clouds, the changing moon

Nana.
Your hands are good at acting.
♫ The light and shadow of four seasons ♫
♫ I've seen the meteor

♫ When the wind rises,
the sky will be cloudless ♫
Wow, amazing.
Be together.
Get married now.
My brother, I'll be your groomsman.
Sister-in-law, well,
Hongdou.
Enough, will you watch it or not?
Yes.
♫ Waiting for the seabirds
to call forth the ripples ♫
It's beautiful.
Where is this place?
There is no video effect in it, right?
It's the real galaxy.
Yes.
My brother took me there the year before last.
We drove the jeep there.
There are so many stars,
it's bright.
I want to go there.
I knew you want to go there.
So,
I'm organizing a team-building activity again.
Again?
Which place needs free labor this time?
This time is real.
You were tired of picking the plums,
so I'll organize a camp at night
and play for a whole day.
Can I go with you?
I also worked for two days.
You can go with us.
Will you go and play with us?
That place is beautiful.
You can take pretty pictures.
When will you go?
Tomorrow afternoon.
We'll camp out for one night
and come back the next day.
It won't bother work.
Okay.
I'll ask who wants to go with us in the group.
Okay.
Good.
I'll prepare the rest things.
Dismiss.
♫ The light and shadow of four seasons ♫
♫ I've seen the meteor
that lights up the night sky ♫
♫ When the wind rises,
the sky will be cloudless ♫
It's so quiet and comfortable.
It feels like there are only us in the world.
You're right.
I have some inspirations for my new books.
Enough, Damai.
Enough.
Just finish the ending first.
Okay.
Come here to help to put up the tent.
Coming.
Just work.
How to do it?
Hold this.
I'll plug the nail in.
Hu.
Why are you being lazy here again, Hu?
Come here and work.
He pretended not to hear us.
Hu, you didn't work,
and didn't help me with this.
You can't ask an artist to work with his hands.
Xiaxia.
Don't do that.
Come here.
Drink coffee.
We can always believe Huang.
I'm not an artist.
I'm improving your position,
and you won't accept it.
Let's pick some firewood.
Let's pick more.
It will be cold after sunset.
Let's go.
That way.
Pick the thin sticks.
Yes.
Okay, this is good.
How I wish to fall in love.
Don't think too much.
They can't be together.
Why not?
They are not married,
and like each other.
Hongdou's rent is over next month, right?
You don't understand, little girl.
With a time limitation,
there is possible to be a short and strong love.
You agree with him?
Yes.
I'm experienced.
A girl would tell you,
when you're singing to me,
I have a special feeling.
It's love.
When I just started
to feel the fragrance of love,
she sent me a message,
and said,
it's just a dream,
just wake up.
I asked why.
Guess what?
What?
She blocked me.
The light is good. I'll take a photo for you.
Love comes and goes like a tornado.
Although I agree with him,
I think,
Hongdou and Mr. Xie are rational people.
If they can't be responsible in a relationship,
they won't start.
Reason,
can prevent yourself
from entering a relationship,
but it can't prevent yourself
from emerging in love.
Nana,
what do you think of the story
that the president went on a tour,
met the most handsome guy in the village,
and helped him to start his business?
♫ Don't know where to go ♫
I have an image now.
Write me in your story as well.
No.
Even the most minor character?
No.
Come on.
Cheers.
Come on.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
This sweet potato is so delicious.
So sweet.
I felt all food is delicious recently.
Me, too.
I think the meals
Auntie Feng made are delicious.
So,
people should work more,
and pay more effort.
This potato,
with spiced salt,
is the most delicious.
Enough.
Drink less coffee,
in case you can't fall asleep tonight.
I won't sleep.
I'll watch the stars for the whole night.
Watch if you're not cold.
How great.
It's great for us to gather together.
It's a pity.
Mr. Ma is not here.
If he is here,
it would be better.
Damai.
When will you leave?
Next week.
I told Xiaochun I'll check out next week.
Can you stay here for a few more days?
I've been out for too long.
My parents would often call
and ask me to go back.
Have you told your dad you won't look for a job?
And I promised my dad,
I'll go out at least four days a week.
That's it.
Damai.
Will you come back and visit us?
Of course.
I'll come back and live here
for a while next year.
Will you be here?
I don't know if they'll be here,
but I'll be here.
I have no place to go.
Me, too.
You have no place to go?
That's great.
I'll save a room for you,
and give you some discount.
No need.
She can sleep with me,
and doesn't need to pay.
Mr. Xie.
When we talk about this,
you act like a mean merchant.
Thank you for your praise.
I'm a mean merchant,
and you act like a mean merchant.
I heard you only charged Mr. Ma 200 yuan
for the love story in the tea shop?
This is my principle.
I can charge him a low price,
but he must pay me.
I really admire that.
If Damai left,
no one would make noodles
and share with me at midnight.
My friend,
don't be sad.
It's like a dinner served when guests arrive.
We'll leave after we finished eating,
and we'll come again the next day.
That's right.
Hu.
At this moment,
I think you should sing a song.
That's right.
Okay.
What do you want to listen to?
I'm different from you.
I won't charge.
The Cost of Love?
What's the song you sang in the room last night?
It's good.
That's my new song.
Sing that.
My new song,
Wind,
for all of you.
Applaud!
Okay, enough.
