I hit the last stitch.
But I was done when you called.
I won, OK? You heard me!

Before you.
I finished first.
Me too, but I called it.
Just dumb.
You know I was first
Accept it, Zuguo.
- OK, OK, pick your treat. - Men are such bad losers.
Go on, then.

I don't feel like going out just now.
You wash first. - Why?

- So toss it. - I can swap it.
Or shall I keep it?
I'll return it tomorrow. You think I'll cash it in?
Time for a snack, I'm starving.
Your turn now, Shengnan.
- What? - I've done my wash.
You said 10 o'clock
Did I say that?
If I said that...
You don't remember?
I can't deliver before 11.
However I try
No way I can do it.
So what are you doing here?
Going through the motions.
Let go, let go! Move aside!
Really, if we stop, we stop.
No way we can finish by 11.
Haven't even done any back pockets!
No-one has.
Crazy
We need 2-3 hours.
I need 3 hours.
Step on it, then!
Ok, so... half an hour.
No way!
Lapels will take that long, never mind the stitching
Love was just a tug of war,
all night long,
a one-man show all along.
we were strangers and
couldn't just say 'I was wrong'...
The middle bits go together?
Mhm.
Not easy.
Just stitch it over the other one.
I ask only one thing the rest is easy.
She finishes her quota first.
It's simple, really.
She does this pile and she's good.
See? Just two days.
Help me out here.
I promised this batch by the first.
If she leaves now,
I can't move this batch out this year.
Chen Hao let me down.
I warned him He won't be back.
You want to be paid, you do your bit.
No work, no pay.
No more Mr. Nice Guy.
I get it, she has to do her quota.
But look, she's over two months gone.
we're out of time, in two days she has to go.
Two days, fine, but I need your help.
Will she have the abortion at home?
No pressure!
- Listen, please. - Go on, tell me
She can't hide it any more,
it's just getting too obvious.
We're not telling anyone.
If she comes home to do it,
it'll be too much for my parents.
They both have high blood pressure.
So use the travel money to do it here!
A few days in a clinic, saline drip, that's it.
Time off, no problem!
But first she does this job.
Then she can relax, work at home.
She stays here in Zhili, see?
We can drive her to the clinic.
Look, it's like this Zuguo's family,
They don't really have...
you know, what we have.
But Shengnan isn't... loose, you know?
Of course not!
- My own daughter. - Of course!
The boss knows, right?
You too, I don't have to explain.
If Shengnan marries, she stays at home.
We know, we know!
Any parent would understand You don't need to explain.
If she was wild, you know,
I wouldn't care who she marries.
OK, sure, we get it.
So you will get rid of the baby?
Yes.
I told Zuguo, maybe I'm too anxious,
but yesterday I was ready
to get her the abortion.
I said, I waited all day for your answer.
Today he says no, she should keep it.
I said, how do you get a say?
I told him, you're not married to her yet,
so it's not up to you.
She's still my daughter.
What right do you have?
But I said, there's still a chance,
she won't get an abortion today.
Your parents are coming,
see what they say,
if your mother really says no.
Today I'd planned to take Shengnan to the clinic.
But I'm still waiting.
His mother got in touch,
so I told her the same,
I told her...
I explained just that, what I told you.
