This is a prescription specifically for the epidemic.
I asked my dad about it.
He said we could roast brown rice until it
turns golden brown and make porridge with them.
It invigorates the spleen and dispels dampness.
It's helpful against this illness.
I'll organise it into an article
and publish it on the public account right away.
I'm not
having coronavirus, am I?
What you have is more serious than coronavirus.
Drink your medicine.
Thank you, my wife.
Easy, easy.
Okay.
Are all the other matters arranged properly?
We've accepted and treated as many patients as possible.
It's all arranged,
so things are not as tense on our end.
However,
most patients
don't understand our approach.
After all,
families have to be
quarantined separately.
They would be worried about each other.
In special times,
we need special measures.
Isn't our family
doing the same?
Ouch, ouch.
Ouch, ouch
Don't move.
If this abscess doesn't heal,
you will suffer in your later years, you know?
It's fine.
In my later years,
I have you to take care of me.
Where do you get the confidence to say that?
I know.
You can't bear...
You can't bear to leave me behind.
Get some rest.
I need to write down the medical record today
and send it to my dad.
Are you still mad at me?
Mad?
Why would I be mad?
Saying you are not mad
means you are mad.
It's not worth
punishing myself
for someone else's mistake.
If you really are not mad,
come.
Sit beside me.
Professor Ren,
please behave yourself.
Saying you're not angry
means you're angry.
Saying you don't hate me
means you truly hate me.
I know
you care about me
the most.
Otherwise,
you wouldn't have
left behind four elderly people,
our son,
and risked your own life
to come to me.
You are overthinking it.
I am a doctor too.
Both professionally and personally, it's only right for me to be here.
You just
can't bear
to see me die early, can you?
I admire your
selfless dedication to TCM
and your selfless care for patients.
It has nothing to do with personal feelings.
Looks like
you really don't love me anymore.
You already have a love child.
Do you still love me then?
Did you see Mr Xie?
Yes.
Did you see his wife?
Did she enter the mobile cabin hospital?
No.
She has been taken to ICU.
I don't think
she will come back.
They put her on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
His spouse,
I remember
she once said this
to me.
She said...
What a beautiful sunrise.
I wonder
if this glimpse
would be my last one.
Who knows...
Who knows
if this glimpse
would be my last one?
As long as we love each other,
we should...
We should treat each other kindly.
Zhao Li Quan,
guess where I am.
Where are you?
(I'm in Tong'an Hospital in Wuhan.)
(West 2nd General Ward. Nurse Tian Xing Xing of Class A.)
You are here in Wuhan?
It's my duty to treat and save patients too.
Don't you know how dangerous the situation is in Wuhan right now?
If you can come, why can't I, right?
(Besides,)
(I mean,)
I feel closer to you here.
(By the way,)
(you left in a hurry)
last time.
There was something I didn't get a chance to tell you.
What is it?
Take care of yourself over there.
(We will)
(go back together.)
You too.
Stay protected.
I'll take you home.
(As the bright moon shines over the sea,)
(from far away you share this moment with me.)
(Lovers lament the distant night,)
(spending sleepless nights consumed by longing.)
(Tian Zhen,)
(you taught me this poem.)
(You said)
(it's the most beautiful one among the poems)
(you learned about yearning.)
(You even gave me a challenge at the time,)
(mentioning a famous Japanese writer)
(who used the moon to express love.)
(I asked you many times, but you refused to tell me)
(the exact line.)
(Now I know.)
(The moon tonight is truly beautiful.)
Have you eaten today?
Do you like the food?
The food is good,
but I have no appetite.
Let me see your tongue.
Do you have a bitter taste in your mouth?
I am fine.
I just feel guilty.
Guilty about what?
Seeing all of you
working so hard on the front line,
while I'm being useless,
unable to do anything.
That's enough. Stop saying those things.
It makes you breathless when you speak.
I'll add an additional herbal medicine for you today.
Looks like your vital energy is still weak.
I'm consuming resources
without contributing anything to the country.
I feel guilty.
Stop feeling guilty.
It's not beneficial to your recovery.
By the way,
Tian Zhen said
you haven't contacted Tou Tou for a long time.
She has been asking about Wu Shan Dao's treatment plan.
I didn't contact her on purpose.
You still haven't told her
you are sick?
No.
Don't you know her?
If she knew I was sick,
she would have left Shan Dao and come to Wuhan.
You don't care about your son,
your wife,
your parents.
All you care about
is this girl.
She truly is your own daughter.
She is more important than the whole family.
What's wrong?
Happy Women's Day.
You are so silly.
Looks like
you are getting a lot better.
You've never given me flowers before.
Where did this come from?
The patient I treated before
has recovered.
He is
now a full-time volunteer.
He came to visit me
and asked me if I needed anything.
I asked
if there were any roses.
And he brought me this single rose.
I will
put it here.
It gives the room a sense of vitality.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
If you think it's beautiful,
then don't leave.
Let's enjoy the flower together.
If you think
you can win me over
with just a rose,
you should reflect on
your mistakes.
Let me tell you,
I won't forgive you.
Tou Tou isn't my daughter.
I'm talking to you.
Tou Tou isn't my daughter.
Forget it.
Don't stop there.
Finish what you want to say.
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
Say that again.
Who don't you want to talk to anymore?
I don't want to...
Talk to myself anymore.
That's more like it.
Actually,
I've been thinking,
we've been married for so many years.
Why do you keep holding onto
a trivial matter like this
and can't let it go?
Where is the basic trust
between us?
Are you seriously blaming me?
If you truly trusted me,
would you have tested me with something like this?
Come on.
Let's
make things clear today.
Whose daughter is Tou Tou?
Could she be
Wu Shan Dao's daughter?
Shan Dao didn't tell me.
He just told me that
the girl he brought back is an offspring of
the Jiang family's acupuncture technique successor.
But didn't Zhao Li Quan present evidence to prove she isn't?
I don't know how that happened.
Just like you, I really haven't got a clue.
Why don't you go and ask Shan Dao
when you go back?
What can I ask him?
He said he doesn't remember anything.
Well,
even if he doesn't remember anything,
with today's scientific advancements,
a simple
DNA test will give us the answer.
Tou Tou isn't your daughter.
Why did you say she was then?
For the sake of Tou Tou,
for the trust she just established.
Given her temperament,
we firmly believed before that she was the successor of
the Jiang family's acupuncture sect.
If Zhao Li Quan demolished that belief,
then all our hard work
and efforts to change Tou Tou would have gone to waste,
wouldn't it?
You're afraid of ruining your disciple,
but you're not afraid of breaking my heart
and ruining my trust?
I always thought that
as a married couple,
we could read each other's mind
just by looking into each other's eyes.
I didn't expect that
you would crumble faster than Tou Tou.
After all these years of cultivation,
your true colours have been revealed.
Yet, you have the audacity
to sulk,
give me the silent treatment,
and take your blanket
and move to the massage room upstairs.
That's what I call failing the test.
You... You are the one who failed.
Fine.
I failed.
Who says I crumbled faster
than Tou Tou?
Actually...
Actually, I never doubted you at all.
I knew Tou Tou isn't your daughter.
I was just upset that
you put me in an embarrassing position
in front of so many people.
You didn't respect me.
All right, all right.
(Jiangzhou People's Hospital)
What's the matter?
Missing your master?
I miss them.
Them?
So, there is someone else that you miss.
Look at you,
you insisted on hiding here
when you could have gone home.
Now this is great.
Even if you want to go back,
you can't.
I don't have a home.
Look at you,
your master treats you so well.
You are so ungrateful.
It's precisely because my master treats me well
that I can't leave.
Can Ms Shen take care of
both you and Grandma alone?
I say,
has your master not contacted you for several days?
They are all busy.
Looks like your master has abandoned me.
Nephew No. 2,
don't worry.
As long as I'm around, your life won't be in danger.
I say,
although you performed acupuncture on me
under your master's guidance,
it is also
under my guidance and supervision.
I think
you should get a new master.
Don't be stubbornly attached to one side.
Starting from tomorrow,
you will ask to be my disciple.
Don't underestimate me
and think I'm incapable.
Even though your master is renowned,
don't forget that I am also a influential figure in Jiangzhou.
Even if I can't be number one,
I can at least
be number two.
I'm only telling you this,
if anyone else
wants to become my disciple,
I won't even bother.
I see how dedicated you have been
taking care of me these days.
That's why I'm willing to let go of the grudge,
and I don't mean you,
I mean the grudge against your master,
and accept you as my student.
Don't hesitate anymore.
That's quite a tempting offer.
I've made up my mind.
Made up your mind about what?
Once I'm out of the hospital,
I will kowtow to Senior Master.
If he could teach the two of you so well,
then teaching me should not be a problem, right?
It's settled, I will kowtow to Senior Master.
Child,
I don't admire anyone else, but I truly admire you.
Even when you turn someone down,
you manage to do it tactfully without hurting our relationship.
Hello, everyone. I'm Dr Peng.
I will teach everyone how to make
Fried Rice Tea and Egg Dumplings in today's live stream.
Let's start with
the Egg Dumplings.
(Class representative, Xiao Hong, are you ready?)
All ready to go.
First, let's put oil
in the pan
and evenly preheat it.
Then, we'll add the previously beaten eggs.
As for the dumplings,
I've chosen Shrimp Supreme Dumpling.
These dumplings have
whole and large shrimp inside.
Shrimp meat contains abundant protein
and essential trace elements needed by the human body.
So, we should eat more shrimp meat.
The heat of the oil is about right. Now we can add the dumplings.
Cook them on low heat for three minutes.
Remember, it must be low heat.
Careful!
This is very normal.
You know that, right?
The eggs fried this way
taste especially good, you know?
Class representative, Xiao Hong, was just a little impatient.
We were supposed to add the eggs later.
(Don't criticise her anymore. Or she won't be frying the pan anymore,)
(she will be toasting you.)
Oh, my God.
Where is it?
On the right. Bingfeng acupoint.
Tianzong acupoint.
And around Xinshu acupoint.
Is that really important whether or not Tou Tou is my daughter?
One day as a teacher,
a lifetime as a father.
Isn't that how it is in our ancient Chinese culture?
The master
is like a father.
It's different.
You really can't accept Tou Tou
as a member of our family?
I can't accept that
you have someone else in your heart.
Why have I been together
with you for so many years?
You always donate money
and visit other cities to provide medical support.
I never complained
and fully supported you.
But you haven't treated me well.
Other couples enjoy romance and love,
but with you,
it's always about hardships
and sacrifices.
I've been the one holding this family together.
In the end,
I can't even get your loyalty, which is the most basic thing.
What should I do?
You've destroyed my trust.
Now that I've told you the truth.
Have I earned your trust again?
No.
There's something that has been weighing on my mind,
and I want to ask you directly.
Today, you must give me an honest answer.
What's the deal
between you and Little Lark?
What's your relationship?
I only said that I was Tou Tou's father.
Now you're even trying to find her mother for me?
(The fact that you've been searching for her all these years)
(shows that)
(you can't forget about her, right?)
(If she hadn't)
(dropped out of school back then,)
(maybe we wouldn't have started our relationship.)
So, your trust
was built on doubt all along?
Have you always had her in your heart?
Have you?
Yes.
Listen,
it's not what you imagine.
Do you know why Little Lark dropped out of school?
It's because of me.
I made a mistake
that caused her to lose her hearing in both ears.
You don't know this,
but the hardships I faced on my journey
to learn TCM knowledge
were unimaginable
for descendants of TCM families
like you.
In order to learn the essence of TCM,
I had studied under many masters.
(Now it seems that)
(some of those masters)
(had limitation in their knowledge.)
(At that time,)
(I didn't have the ability to discern their shortcomings.)
I will insert the needle now.
(I didn't know)
the gravity of it.
I was bold
but lacked
a very good teacher
to guide me.
I was just experimenting on my treatments.
You can't imagine
how innocent and naive
those people were
(in those days.)
(She believed in me)
(and let me treat her.)
And the result...
What happened?
The result was...
She became deaf in both ears.
At that time, I thought it was temporary.
We sought treatment
from both TCM and Western doctors.
Six months passed,
and it was too late to change anything.
Stop blaming yourself.
Little Lark left without telling anyone
because she didn't want to see you like this.
She even packed her stuff by herself.
Study well.
The only thing you can do
to atone for it is to become a great doctor.
My heart always aches when I think about her,
you know?
If there's anyone
I've failed in my life,
it's Little Lark.
It was a mistake,
but in a way, it was also a good thing.
Because of her,
I have truly devoted myself to studying.
I want to learn pure TCM
and become the best doctor.
No matter where she is,
I will find her.
With my current understanding of TCM,
I want to take a chance.
I know
you have always approached TCM
with caution
and meticulousness,
and treated patients
with utmost care.
I didn't realise
that it was Little Lark who made you who you are today.
Then, did you see her at the class reunion?
Yes, I did.
She is still as cheerful as ever.
She didn't utter a word of resentment towards me.
Didn't you treat her?
I couldn't convince her.
She said she had given up on treatment.
She has adapted to the quiet world.
I feel so regretful.
Xin Zheng...
When we...
When we leave Wuhan,
bring me to her.
I will convince her.
I will treat her, okay?
Okay.
Let's seal it.
You are my dearest wife.
But I'm still mad at you.
I mean,
something this huge
has been weighed
on your heart for decades.
Yet you didn't even tell your wife.
You just didn't...
You just didn't trust me.
Telling you
would only make one more person
carry the guilt in this world.
Guilt doesn't solve anything.
The only thing I could do is to keep learning
and improving myself.
I may have a chance to change the result.
But
this big rock must be so heavy in your heart.
How many things have you kept inside?
Now you understand
why I've been so strict
with Tian Zhen.
While others praise him,
I scold him.
I just don't want him to be like me,
to be easily swayed
by a little bit
of praise and opportunities,
forgetting
the value of life.
I don't want him to make
the same lifelong regrets that I did.
He won't.
Our son won't.
He really
looks like a doctor now.
Yes.
Through this epidemic, I've seen it.
This kid
is cut out to be a TCM practitioner.
His pure heart
matches his name,
Tian Zhen.
I know, right?
Let me ask you.
Have you ever
had feelings
for Little Lark?
You know, like a secret crush.
Even Dad said
that you and her
were evenly matched in your class.
Wu Shan Dao was even a bit behind her.
That's narrow-minded.
Do you think there's only romantic love between a man and a woman?
There's also another kind of connection,
a mutual appreciation.
Come on,
just admit that you had a crush on her.
What mutual appreciation?
I've been thinking,
if I didn't
have feelings
for someone else back then,
given my mistakes,
I should have...
I should have married her.
She wouldn't have ended up
alone until now.
Ren Xin Zheng,
come clean now.
How many women are there in your heart?
Who else did you have feelings for?
I don't dare to say anymore.
Tell me!
Stop trying to scare me by coughing.
Have some water.
Do you remember
where we first met?
Of course I remember.
You always forget,
saying that it was during our university days.
Actually, I noticed you long before that.
It was when you were in your second year of university.
You came to our house to talk to my dad about your thesis.
We were on the rooftop of the old house.
I was in high school at that time.
The first time we met was at the school.
Not when you started school,
but when I started university.
I think
at that time,
you must have been in your first senior year of high school.
You were wearing a blue dress.
Lan Lan!
-Make way! -Slow down!
Unbelievable!
Slow down! Be careful!
Careful not to hit someone!
You...
Move! Move!
Don't ride so fast!
Move! Move!
Watch out!
Why haven't I seen you wearing the blue dress again after that?
Oh, right.
Where did that blue dress go?
How come I couldn't find it later?
Why did you only tell me this now?
Were you planning to keep it a secret from me forever?
We need to save our trump cards
for critical moments.
You're just too cunning.
What's wrong with being cunning?
Unlike you,
whose mind is so easy to read.
Now you understand
why your father passed on the position to me
instead of you, right?
You women
always ask men if they love you or not.
Do you love me?
Tell me! Tell me!
Actually, I'm confessing my love to you
with my whole life.
Do you understand now?
You don't feel jealous now, do you?
Am I the jealous one?
I am.
Now, I have to tell you about another thing
that you might not be happy about.
There aren't so many unhappy things in life.
It's all happy things. Happy things.
Life has a way of slapping you in the face,
reminding you
of the emotional vulnerabilities you have.
Let it slap, let it be.
With you by my side,
I have a suit of armour.
Life's default setting
is ups and downs,
twists and turns.
When you embrace something joyful,
there's always something sad waiting for you.
There aren't that many sad things.
When you have the love of your life,
it's all joy.
You no longer doubt
that Tou Tou is my daughter,
but she may become our daughter-in-law.
