Are you tired?
You promised me, Dad. You'd help me to do my homework.
Otherwise, my teacher will scold me.
Are you listening to me?
Dad.
Dad.
Dad?
One, two, three...
That's not cool, Dad.
I told you. I'll be right where you are on the count to three.
One,
two,
three.
I can go to school tomorrow, right, Dad?
Not yet.
The doctor said
that you need to stay at home for a few days more for observation.
If so, I'll fall behind. Semester exams are coming.
It's okay.
I'll borrow your friends' notes. You can catch up.
You promised!
If I fail this time, it's on you.
I know.
I promise.
Now close your eyes.
Okay.
- Happy birthday, Sweetie. - Thank you, Daddy.
Yes, Nam?
Hurry, go back to the factory. Something's up.
Faster. What makes you so slow?
Wait, hold up!
- Phuong, they're damaging our mats. - All you need to do is bring them outside.
- Why are you guys so slow? - Oh, my God, the mats!
- I failed to stop them. - Hey, over here. Hey.
- Mrs. Tu! - What?
The resort corporation ordered these mats months ago.
They just haven't picked them up yet.
Once they complete their purchase, I'll pay you back right away.
- I promise. - I'm a grown-up.
I am no kid for you to fool.
Who would go to a resort to sleep on a mat?
They aren't for sleeping.
They'll use them to decorate the ceilings or walls.
Mrs. Tu, please take pity on me.
Please wait until the end of this month.
If I can't make it, you can do whatever you want.
Please give me one last chance. Mrs. Tu.
I'm begging you.
Okay.
I'll give you one last chance.
But keep your word and stop getting on my nerves.
- Yes, ma'am. - Quit it, you guys.
Return those mats and leave.
What should we do now, Phuong?
Tell our people to bring the mats inside
- in case of rain. - Yes.
Dad, fire! Fire!
Fire!
It's out! It's out!
Nam is the only smoker here.
How many times did I remind you that you should go outside to smoke?
Can't you see how flammable this place is?
I'm sorry, Phuong.
The landlady scared the life out of me, so I forgot this.
I promise it won't happen again.
I asked you to call our friends to help with my wife's death anniversary.
How was it?
I'm sorry, Phuong.
Hey, An.
Can you come over at lunchtime to help me with the death anniversary?
Shoot! I lost track of time.
Please tell others to come early, too.
I know.
I got you.
MAT-WEAVING VILLAGE, SEDGE-DYEING VILLAGE
- You've finished early today, huh? - I have a death anniversary to attend.
What are you staring at, you lout? Every single time!
You always get an eyeful.
They're right in front of my eyes. How can I avoid them?
Try to wear them backward next time.
What's up? Don't tell me that you want to borrow my money again.
Is money everything to you?
Today is Phuong's wife's death anniversary.
He asked me to help him.
Then why aren't you there already?
I've just come back home. See? Gotta wash myself first.
Hey!
Dang!
Your wife's looking sharp, bro.
Stop bullshitting. Hurry up.
Why did you come home so early?
I need to attend Phuong's wife's death anniversary. Sorry, honey.
Hi, sisters. Another new item.
This is a work skirt. It's 200,000 VND.
Anyone who orders up to two items today will get free shipping.
Now, I have to end this livestream.
My hubby is home early. So I have to cook for him.
Message me if you'd like to order something.
Bye-bye. Thanks so much, y'all.
Honey, do you have time today? I need a ride to the hospital.
What? What happened to you, love?
Prenatal check-up.
- What? - I'm pregnant.
Prenatal check-up?
You're pregnant?
You're full of soap. Don't come near me.
It doesn't matter! You're pregnant!
Am I going to be a dad?
Hey!
This skirt is sold. Don't.
Who cares? I'll buy it!
I'm going to be a dad!
I'm going to be a dad! Wait for me.
I'll finish showering, go to the death anniversary,
I'll take you for prenatal check-up.
I'm going to be a dad!
Mom, Dad, I'm home.
Why are you home so early today?
I have some errands to run today.
Dad, why don't you try these herbs? I got it from a new apothecary.
Another new place? But my back pain didn't ease up at all.
Dad, if you want to get rid of it, you have to take a break.
Nothing helps if you work like this every day.
I've already told you.
Automatic factories are down to their last cent.
You're still working nonstop.
If we hadn't done it, how could we raise someone like you?
Go wash yourself, then we'll have lunch.
- Come on. - Beat it.
Hello?
- Make sure you drop by Phuong's house. - All right. Okay.
- Why don't you try your luck today? - I'm dead broke.
- You're always broke! - Don't mess around.
Only 20 million VND left. Let me bring you tomorrow.
- Take off your ring. - Let me call my wife.
She'll bring money straight away.
- No, I want it now. - It's quick.
Chill, bro. I'll pay later.
Look, she is calling me.
- Hurry up. I'll go weigh the chickens. - All right.
Give me a sec. Hello?
Why do you keep giving me surprises, Loc?
Enough is enough. You even take my tontine now?
You troublemaker scum, Loc.
Oh, please, it's for the death anniversary.
Whose? Your grandad?
You go to a hundred death anniversaries a week, everyone here must have died.
Keep it down. You give me a bad name.
You still have a name? I'll trash your party.
Come home now!
Hello? Bring me the money quickly. Hurry. They're waiting.
Hey, he's making off!
Hey!
- Hey! - Hey!
You fatso!
- Eat this! - Ouch!
- Fatso! - Ouch!
Oh, shit!
It hurts.
He's not going to stop. Why do you keep telling him to stop?
Have a drink.
If they refuse to sell the house next to yours, I'll handle them.
Khanh, help me.
I saw a guy just stopped here. Where is he?
To whom are you asking?
I'm asking you! Where are you hiding him?
Help... Help!
Help...
Help...
Help! Help!
What're you looking at?
Didn't your mother teach you how to behave at someone's house?
Hello. I'm at the market. Where is it?
Yeah. I'm with Big Boy.
Right away? Okay.
Hey!
I won't let this slide.
Let's resume, shall we?
If you wish to expand your site, open a smithy first.
Keep slamming it day by day,
your old neighbors will have no choice but to settle it with a small price.
- I like your method. Okay. - Let's do it.
- Thank you. Okay. - Thank you, mister. Yes.
Why haven't you left?
- I'm afraid they're still around. - Why did you still gamble?
Go wash yourself, then get going to Phuong's.
Yes.
Gosh, I thought I was the first to come. But Loan even got here before me.
He is only by himself.
And I live next door. I just want to give him a hand.
How can Phuong hold his ground against someone as capable as you?
By the way,
why don't you take this chance to light an incense and ask Ly for a blessing?
She must have known by now. Why do you two still keep it a secret?
Then you can make an announcement to both families.
- Am I right, Mrs. Bay? - Truly.
Happy birthday, happy birthday Happy birthday to you
Yeah.
Have a wish.
- Okay. Blow out the candles. - That's right.
