Queen of Kowloon (九龍皇后)

My name is Leung Yin-ho, I came from Wei-yang City.

Sister Heung said my original name is too corny, so...

she named me Tai-tai, it means bringing a son in Chinese.

She hopes that I'd bring her good luck

to give birth to a son.

However, after many years, she has had no son.

So she named me Tai-kam, it means bringing money in Chinese.

She hopes that I'll bring good luck to her husband.

However, from that time onwards,

Ka-ming's been a herbalist doctor by renting a desk a drugs store.

But he hasn't made big money.

Brother Fred.

Be careful, Ah-si.

I was pregnant twice.

But my babies came to earth when they were...

just 4 months old.

Both were boys.

I felt that they looked like Ka-ming.

Ka-ming was very miserable to know it.

But, Heung said we still needed a celebration to bring good luck.

So, she named me Ah-si, a common name for maids.

She said this name fits me most.

My best friend is Auntie Hung.

Auntie Hung. - You're back.

She came from Shanghai.

She had several names before.

Finally, she left her family.

She named herself Auntie Hung.

She always shows her concern to me.

She is a kind-hearted person.

Good morning, Ah Si. - Good morning.

Where are you going?

I went over there to bring back all these.

Look, what a reward!

So many of it!

They celebrated a festival yesterday, that's why they had fine food.

Come on, have a bread. - Thank you.

Why hasn't Bee come yet?

Stare at the foothill, I guess Bee will arrive any minute.

Here Bee is...

Come and eat something.

Auntie Hung, please take it for me.

Eat something.

This is a treat of Auntie Hung.

It's tasty!

Auntie Hung, look!

The Emperor is writing under the flyover!

This is his habit.

I'll go and see what he's writing.

Emperor, beautiful calligraphy!

I know these words,

this is Ten, Nine, and world.

Emperor, what is this word?

This is Ancestor. - Ancestor! I see.

This is the father.

What is meant by ancestor?

Four Ancestor!

Is it my name?

Right, this is word "Yin".

This is my name.

Sai-cho.

Ah Si, it's time to go to market.

Hurry up.

I've got to go now.

See you tomorrow, bye!

Auntie Hung, Look!

She is running like a little girl.

Why haven't I seen her before?

Of course!

She just moved in.

She was a gold-medal winner once in the Olympic Games,

she won three medals before.

Don't you know it?

That' bull shit!

Time's up.

Do you want a lesson?

I've known Little Wing for 2 decades.

He is still a bachelor.

Wing, please give me some ribs.

I want to make sweet and sour pork tonight.

I am sorry, Mrs. Chan, the ribs are sold out.

How about pork?

All right.

Ten dollars please.

Thank you! - Thanks for coming!

Hello, Wing. - Hello, Ah Si.

The ribs are ready, sweet and sour pork, right?

The spare rib are for cooking soup.

The meat is sliced, you can fry it together with vegetables.

The minced pork is for steaming with eggs.

Thank you. - Thank you!

Bye! - Bye!

A customer left a pair of shoes here.

You do morning exercises every morning, I think you'll find them useful.

This is a pair of beautiful shoes!

The one who lost it must feel so sad.

You'd better keep it.

Maybe she will come back for it.

Okay!

Bye! - Bye!

You ran so fast! I can't catch you up!

Heung, you seem to get along well with Ah Si, don't you?

Uncle Ming is so lucky!

It's out of my control!

You're so open-minded, you're generous!

If my husband gets a hard-working concubine as Ah-si,

I won't mind either.

Ah-si. - Sister Heung.

I've taken back the dress for you! I'll put it inside your room.

Thank you.

Roasted duck head.

The dinner will be ready soon.

Thanks.

It's time to eat, Sister Heung.

All right. - Thank you.

I am going to deliver dinner now.

Take care. - Got you.

Sister Heung, why so you let Ah Si eat with Uncle Ming?

She cooks for Uncle Seven too,

so she'll eat with them.

She'll be back in a ten more minutes, it'll be fine.

You'd better keep an eye on her.

Do you agree? - Yes!

Let's eat, the food is ready for us.

Let's eat after this game, okay?

That's right! It's your turn, come on.

This is my happiest time in one day.

Because I can eat with Ka-ming at the drugs store.

You seem to have caught cold.

Don't eat cold food.

Here is your dinner.

What food do we have?

Same as usual, sweet and sour pork!

Let's eat, Ah Si.

Ah Si, take a seat.

Ah Si, the pork is really tasty.

So eat more.

Don't you eat too much! You are on diet.

Have you drunk?

Yes, I have.

You want to have a lesson?

Remember?

It's been 25 years! You haven't gone back to hometown.

How about joining the litchi tour together?

It' a great idea! - Okay?

It's been 25 years,

do you think the litchi garden is still there or not?

I am sure it is still there.

Are you sure?

We must go with Sister Heung.

The 3 of us share a room?

Of course not.

I'll ask Auntie Hung to go with us.

So...

Come on! It's deal.

Pork in soup.

Seasoned pig's liver and kidneys.

Sweet and sour pork.

This is minced pork in egg.

Let me take a look at this.

Sliced pork with vegetable.

Heung, why all these are pork?

I eat whatever Ah Si made.

We are getting old, don't eat too much meat.

That's right.

Ah Si is quite lazy.

She's familiar with the butcher Ah Wing, so she always buys pork from him.

Are they having an affair?

Let's eat.

Sister Heung.

Are you interested in joining a saving fund?

Are you going to be the organizer?

But I have a rich friend, she is a woman of hospitality.

Usually she pays all expenses

when we go out with her.

This time, she wants to organize a saving fund.

Would you like to join us?

How much is to be paid each month?

Five thousand.

Heung, I'm leaving for Irene's home.

Ah Si is going out again.

She is going to tidy up my daughter's home.

Sister Heung.

Don't mind me of being nosy.

Ah Si is so hard working to make money...

Guess her motive!

She is money minded.

Money minded?

You monitor Ming's income.

He can't pay her money.

So she tries hard to make money.

I think she's earned much money in these years, right?

Then, she will kick you out anytime.

If she wants to leave, that's all right.

Will she leave? Don't be naive!

She is younger than you, and she is keen to make money.

If Ming is going to choose between you and her, what do you think?

She's rather close relationship with Irene too.

But I worry that you'd lose everything suddenly.

Sister Heung,
