DIALOGUE CLIPS (5756)
Tell me why you stay quiet.
Do you know why I had you learn to perform opera?
Life in Jiuyangou was too hard for you.
And your mom had a little brother for you.
It'd be even harder to feed you.
Before, I helped your mom and dad.
But I'm not that young anymore. One day, I'll have my own family too.
If you get into the troupe, you've got to help your mom and dad.
You'll need to support the whole family.
That'd be helping me too, got it?
If you speak up and still aren't cut out
for perform opera or this line of work, then I can let it go.
Okay? Say something.
But I didn't mean talking about meat.
One meat meal every week, got it?
Did you get what I said?
When you're out there, can you talk?
Come on, move. We're having meat today.
Line up. Line up. We're in line, we're in line. The kid just ran off to pee.
Look, we almost lost first place.
Our bowl's been sitting right here. We're in line.
No running a tab. Oh, Qiu, you... You asking for a scolding again?
How'd you catch that? Sorry. Didn't mean to. I was talking about Qiu.
I was talking about Qiu. It's obviously you, a bad influence.
