【BM SUB】Sisterhood EP1 | Shane, Xiangyu Dai | iQIYI Malaysia
[English subtitles are available] [Sisterhood] [Episode 1] My great-grandmother was from Sanshui, Guangdong. On the day she was born, it rained heavily. The Jiuqu River at the entrance of the village overflew. The fortune teller said my great-grandmother had the Element of Water in her life, so she would leave her hometown
And live wanderingly all her life. My great-grandmother’s grandmother said a woman is born to be a flower. When the wind blows it into the water, it drifts with the water. Wherever it drifts to, [Xingzhou [Now Singapore]] it stays for life. My great-grandmother traveled across the sea to Xingzhou at the age of 18.
When she was young, she used to stay here for only one night. That was a long time ago. At that time, my great-grandmother ♫With the first fold, you won’t be scorched by the sun♫ was a Red Scarf. ♫With the first fold, you won’t be scorched by the sun♫
♫With the second fold, you won’t get wet in the rain♫ ♫With the second fold, you won’t get wet in the rain♫ ♫With the third fold, you’ll make more money♫ ♫With the third fold, you’ll make more money♫ ♫You can go home after you make enough money♫ ♫And your family will be prosperous and blessed♫
Girls, look! A Red scarf. She must be here to pick us up. Let’s go, girls. Let’s go. Are you from Sanshui? Yes. I’m Ling. Hello, Ling. What’s your name? My name is Ouyang Tianqing. You’re right. Young girls call me Ling. -Hello, Ling. -Hello, Ling. Ling, you’re our big sister, right? You are famous
In our hometown. Don’t talk nonsense. Our big sister is Miss Qi. She’s very nice. You’ll see her when you go back with me. Sorry. Sorry, Miss. We caused your film wasted. Luckily, I have some in my luggage. Let me give you a roll as compensation. No need.
It was also my fault to be in the way. I’m sorry. -Behave yourself. -Behave yourself. Go! Hurry! Hurry. Hai, we caught a ticket evader. What’s your name? You can’t speak? A mute? I think so. We caught her a while ago, but we haven’t heard anything from her. What’s a mute doing in Xingzhou?
You didn’t even buy the ticket. What do you want now? Do you think I’m negotiating with you? You didn’t buy the ticket. You should be thrown into the sea. That’s what I do. Jiu. Tie her tighter. No need to stump her mouth. She’s mute anyway. Okay. Let’s go. Hurry up! Go! What?
Even a mute has last words? Stop! Who are you? Why are you photoing us? If you do something bad to that girl, this is the evidence. Don’t move. Miss. You just got off the boat, right? Here’s my advice. Mind your own business. If something happens to this girl, the law will punish you.
The law of Xingzhou won’t care about such a woman. What did she do wrong? She didn’t buy the ticket. She’s a thief. She’s worse than a thief. She hid in the cabin. If she had broken the machine, the whole ship would have sunk. That’s right. You would have been drowned too.
Think about it. Shouldn’t this kind of woman be thrown into the sea? But aren’t you afraid of karma if you kill people? Let’s go. You pity her, right? Then pay for her. How much? It’s cheap. 200 dollars. Are you ripping me off? This is too expensive. Miss. How can you bargain with me
If you try to be a hero? After all, she just owe you a ticket. The second-class cabin cost me 30 dollars. How much did it cost for her to have stayed at the bottom of the cabin? Five dollars is enough. Deal. How can you bargain like this? You think it’s too little?
Six dollars. Can’t be higher. Miss. I have a temper. Leave now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude. Are we going that way, Ling? Yes. Is it far? Yes. Tianqing! Tianqing! Ouyang Tianqing! I’m He Xiaochan. Help me, Tianqing. What’s wrong? Xiaochan. Help me. Tianqing! Stop screaming. Tianqing! -Xiaochan. -Help me! Xiaochan. Tianqing.
What’s wrong? Xiaochan. Why are you here in Xingzhou? Were we in the same boat? Why didn’t I see you? Of course you didn’t. She didn’t buy the ticket and hid in the mechanical cabin. He… He just said he would throw me into the sea to feed the fish.
You want to throw my friend into the sea to feed the fish? Is she your friend? She pretended to be a mute. Be careful. You should guard against her. She’s very scheming. We grew up together. Stop sowing discord between us. Do you believe I will throw you into the sea? So arrogant.
Why don’t you ask who I am? I’m a villain of Ann Siang Hill Street and Xingzhou’s local tyrant. Xingzhou’s local tyrant? Then I’m Sanshui’s dragon who crossed the sea. Today, I’m going to see whether Xingzhou’s sea is deep or shallow. Oh no, they are going to fight. Will someone die?
There’ll be no harm. Say it again in a nice way. Harmony brings wealth. Be prosperous. You’re from Sanshui? How dare you be so arrogant as a Red Head Woman? Hai. We have to teach her a lesson. She called herself a dragon. It would ruin our Dragon King Gang’s reputation.
Do you want to die? It’s you who want to die. You’re like a braised duck. The only tough thing left is your mouth. My fist is tougher. Do you want to try it? Ling, what should we do? What should we do? Tianqing! Tianqing! Tianqing! Tianqing. See? I have so many friends.
They each can beat several of you. Are you afraid? They came to Xingzhou to make money and earn a living. Do you think they would fight for you? You, you, and you. Don’t get involved. Get lost! Do you hear it? Get lost! Who are you trying to scare?
Who are you asking to get lost? Rascal. Who are you calling Rascal? I’m calling you. You men are here to bully a little girl. Shameless! If you’re not a rascal, then what? I’ve beaten many people like you back in my hometown. I’ll beat you up every time I see you. Crazy woman.
I gave you an out but you refused. Beat me if you dare. I’m not afraid of you, you rascal. Do you think your life is too long? I’m not afraid of you. In my whole life, no woman has been so close to me except my mom. Are you scared?
Call me mom if you’re afraid. Then I won’t hit you. I don’t need another mom. But I need a wife. If I call you Honey, do you dare to say yes? How dare you? Honey. Hai. You rascal. The Heavenly Lady is parading. I’ll hit you to death. The Heavenly Lady is parading.
How dare you bully my friend! How dare you take advantage of me! You rascal. -Let’s go, Tianqing. -Rascal. Rascal! Run! You let them go so easily? Bastard! The people in the Dragon King Gang are all worthless. Fellows, go! Go. Hai. Don’t move. You can’t run without giving the money. Stop! Stop!
The Heavenly Lady is parading. Can’t you see that the Heavenly Lady is parading? Don’t get yourself into trouble. Everything is going well. Come back. The Heavenly Lady is parading. I agreed to pay six dollars. I’ll pay for her ticket. Everything is going well. Who is she? I don’t know her.
But she helped me just now. Since you took the money, this matter is over. Let’s go. Miss, let me carry it for you. No, I can carry it. Thank you for saving my friend. I will find a way to pay you back. Yes, I will. Just leave your name and address.
My name is Bai Wei. I don’t have the address yet. You don’t have to pay me back. Good luck. See you again. The Heavenly Lady is parading. Tianqing, hurry up. I was so scared today. What’s there to be afraid of, Ling? As you saw, as long as we are tough,
They will be afraid. My grandpa taught me this when I was young. Do you think he’s afraid of you? They are afraid of the Heavenly Lady. The Heavenly Lady? The Heavenly Lady is the deity of Xingzhou. She protects women, especially poor women like us, from being bullied. Bow to her. Girls, hurry up.
Bow to her. The Heavenly Lady is parading. The Heavenly Lady is parading. May the heavenly lady bless all beings. Bless the world and the weather. Good luck. There’ll be no harm. Safe trip. Be prosperous. Comfortable. Comfortable. So comfortable. Hai, what are you talking about? Jiu. I just called that crazy woman “Honey”.
Did she agree? No. How come she didn’t? I heard it. Really. She slapped you and kicked you. Why do I feel she agreed? Hai, are you okay? I’m not. Jiu. I think this crazy woman had poison on her hands. What? Haven’t you heard of “love poison?” Yes, “love poison”. Do you understand?
My life is over. I belong to that crazy woman now. Hai, are you alright? Did you lose your mind just now? I told you I’m not okay. I’m dying. Why don’t you bring that crazy woman back and pay for my life? You’re not going? I’ll go after her myself. Jiu.
Call her Sister-in-law if I catch up. I don’t want such a fierce sister-in-law. Hurry up. Hurry up! Watch the cars! Brother. How many people were on the boat that you came back on? They all think Xingzhou is good and are dying to get here. Brother. Were all these girls
On the same boat with me? Why haven’t I met any of them? They were all at the bottom cabins. Of course you couldn’t meet them. But why did so many girls come to Xingzhou? To work. Certainly, some of them will build buildings for our Lu family. Do you believe it? Women build buildings?
Working as a labour on a construction site? Yes. The construction site of ours is nearby. Do you want to take a look? That will be the most magnificent building in Xingzhou. Okay. Hurry up. Don’t dawdle. You guys are the slowest. Hurry up. If you slack off again,
I’ll deduct your salary for half a day. Hurry up. Why are there so many female workers? What? Do you pity them? Brother. You are still the same as when you were a child. You haven’t changed at all. Here’s the thing. The Government House has issued a restriction order
To forbid foreign males from coming to work in Xingzhou. Now, only women can come. After this restriction order was announced, the price of male workers in Xingzhou has increased. But female workers are cheap. They work as well as men. In fact, we can benefit from it as the boss. Hello, Boss.
[The Heavenly Lady is parading] The Heavenly Lady is parading. The Heavenly Lady is parading. How unlucky. A parade? It’s fun. -I’ll go check. -Don’t go down. What’s wrong, Brother? This is the Heavenly Lady. It’s Nan Lan. Eldest sister-in-law? What eldest sister-in-law? The demoness who got Xuelin killed. I remember
Nan Lan used to dress up as the Heavenly Lady to parade every year. Twice a year. This month and next month. The parade will last a whole day. They will go all over Xingzhou streets and alleys. Is she still living with us? How is that possible? After Xuelin’s accident,
She opened a Goddess Hotel. I think it should be called Demoness Hotel. Their business is good all because of seducing men. Xueqiao, don’t say that. Nan Lan is a good person. Good for what? She killed Xuelin. About this, when I received a letter from the family, I knew something was wrong. The police
Haven’t solved the case yet. I remember Nan Lan is a very kind person. I don’t believe she would kill Xuelin. I remember they were very close. They were close? She is the Heavenly Lady. I think she used the Tame Head on Xuelin. Otherwise, how can a man in our Lu family
Fall for her? It’s been four years. We don’t know wether Xuelin is alive or dead. If she didn’t kill him. Who else could it be? Xueqiao. I think you and mom are prejudiced against Nan Lan. It is said that the Heavenly Lady is going to kill her husband. Her mother is
The previous Heavenly Lady. Her mother killed her father with her own hands. All the elderly in Xingzhou knew about it. As for why they couldn’t find the body… I suspect Xuelin was made into soup by this woman and has been consumed. Xueting. Have some soup. I used to drink the soup she cooked.
The soup was delicious. I’ll visit her someday. Goddess Hotel. Xueqiao, have you been there? Are you kidding? Would I go to the Demoness Hotel? Don’t tell mom these. Be careful of being flogged. You’re the only one who will get flogged. Mom wouldn’t want to flog me. Right.
You and Xuelin are favored by mom. I’m the only one who doesn’t entertain her. Hurry up. Or we can’t catch up with them. Let’s go. Xiaochan. Weren’t you getting married? Why are you here? Don’t mention it. I saw that man. He’s short. His eyes are this narrow. So ugly. I didn’t like him.
So I ran to catch up with you. When I got to the dock, you got on the boat. I didn’t bring money to buy a ticket. I was anxious. I got on the boat when there was a chance. How dare you! You came empty-handed. You didn’t bring any clothes?
I’m not afraid. You’re here anyway. Tianqing. I’ve treated you as my own sister. Shamelass. You were born in August and I was born in September. You’re one month older than me. I don’t care. You are my elder sister. I’ll go wherever you go. I know you’re generous. You won’t let me starve
As long as you have something to eat. Honey! Honey, I’m here. Isn’t he the one by the beach… Ignore him. My name is Kuang Haisheng. Just call me Hai. What’s your name, honey? Tianqing, he’s handsome. Shut up! I’m 25 years old. I have no parents. I’ve never been married. Honey. No discord,
No concord. We are a perfect couple. Honey. They two bumped into each other. Look. Sorry, Sir. No need to ask her name. Just call her Honey. You already called her that. -Yes, Sir. -Go. Honey, wait for me. Watch out. Look. Who’s your Honey? Do you want me to drive you
To the bridal chamber? Jiao. I… Well. I was just kidding. Get in the car. My brother is looking for you. [Tofu Street] Sir, two fried dough sticks. Okay. Take the money. Take it. Thank you. This is Tofu Street. Tianqing, look. Look. It’s so fun. Ling. You’ve picked up newcomers again?
Sir, you’re doing good business today, right? Thanks for your kind words. I’m doing great. Come and have a bowl later. I’ve left you the best soup. Thank you. It smells so good. Stop looking. Ling. Ling, you’re back. Girls, you’ll live here from now on. Miss Qi came here first.
She thought about girls in her hometown. So she kept looking for jobs for everyone. She was afraid there would be no shelter for us. So she rented this Tofu Village for a long time. Everyone must remember Miss Qi’s kindness. Listen to her, respect her and love her. -Okay. -Okay. Let’s go home.
You’re an idiot. What makes you so obsessive? Ling. Miss Qi is mad at Xiuhe. Yes, I heard it. Let the girls go upstairs to settle down first? No, there’s one extra person. Let’s wait until Miss Qi decides after she meets her. Miss Qi. I’ve thought about it for a long time.
I can get 60 cents for a full day’s work. If I work for a rich family, without staying at their’s, I can work in the morning, afternoon and evening for three households. With 40 cents per household, I can get 1.2 dollars. You’ve planned it all out. To work for three households a day?
Are you made of iron? If you work all day long, do you want to die? I have no choice. Our family need money urgently. You husband needs money urgently to marry a concubine? I’m now working in Xingzhou. I can’t have a child for him. My parents-in-law are worried too. Okay.
Buy a ticket. Go back to your hometown. Come back after you give birth to a baby. I can’t do that. If I go back to my hometown, how can my family be fed? I can only do a few more jobs and make more money and send them back to hometown. If his concubine
Gives birth to a boy and a daughter, when I get old, they will also support me. You’re not an idiot. You are bewitched. Even God can’t stop you. Are you determined not to be a Red Scarf? Miss Qi, please grant my wish. I’m not your mother. Why are you kneeling? Get up.
Take it off. If you take off the red scarf, you can never wear it again. You know the rules, right? Yes. All women from Sanshui who come to Xingzhou to work. After wearing the red scarf, she’ll be my sister. After taking off the red scarf, she will have nothing to do with me.
Xiuhe. Xiuhe. Xiuhe. Where are you going? Calm down. Ling! Don’t you have manners in front of the newbies? Xiuhe. I’m Tianqing. Ouyang Tianqing. When we were in our hometown, we used to work together on the construction site. I followed my dad. I was only 13. Do you remember? Ling, tell the newbies rules.
She took off the red scarf. We… We won’t talk to her anymore. Xiu… Girls. This is Miss Qi, our big sister. Hello, Miss Qi. Ling. Miss Qi. What’s your name? You. Hello, Miss Qi. Her name is He Xiaochan. I’m Ouyang Tianqing. We’re from the same village. We grew up together.
Did I ask you? She is timid. She doesn’t dare to speak in front of strangers. I didn’t want you to wait so I said it for her. You’re amazing. You were the one who talked to Xiuhe, right? Yes. Okay, let me ask you. The name list shows
There would be 12 Sanshui girls who would come to Xingzhou. I’ve only prepared 12 red scarfs. Why is there one more person? He Xiaochan. I don’t need to read the name list to know your name is not on it. You bring no luggage and are oil stained.
You didn’t come sitting on a boat seat. You hid in the mechanical room. You weren’t caught and thrown into the sea to feed the fish. You’re so lucky. I won’t accept someone like you. But she has already come to Xingzhou. What should a girl like her do alone? This is her business.
Leave the Tofu Village now! Big sister. You just said we were all sisters from Sanshui. I was so touched to hear that. Xiaochan is indeed from Sanshui. It can’t be fake. She and I grew up together. We’re from the same village. Our families are just a few trees apart.
We’re all sisters from Sanshui. Big sister. Please be kind. Let her stay. She got on the boat secretly. Who knows what affairs she is invovled in? What if she causes any trouble in my place? I said she can’t stay. I mean it. Why are you wasting your time? Miss Qi.
They’ve never travelled far and have no experience. They just came to Xingzhou. Well. They’re unfamiliar with the place. If you kick her out, she might have nowhere to live, if anything happens to her… Shut up! Looks like I can’t help you. Tianqing. It’s okay. I’ll be with you. I’ll go with you.
We are friends after all. Let’s go. Tianqing. She said she won’t keep you. It’s useless to say more. We have all four limbs intact. We just won’t work here. We won’t starve to death. Let’s go. Miss Qi. My name is He Xiaochan. I didn’t buy the ticket because my family was too poor.
When I was six, my father was seriously ill. In order to treat him, we sold our house and land but couldn’t save him. It was not easy for my mother to raise me up. Now she’s sick. She can’t work anymore. I came here to make some money and send it back
So that my mom can live a few more years. I’m not afraid of hardships. I can do any tiring work. Please let me stay. I will work hard. I won’t embarrass you or us Sanshui sisters. Miss Qi. She is quite pitiful. She is filial. You are not afraid of hardship?
Why do I think you don’t seem to be able to work hard? I can. I really can. I swear. What a filial kid. She’s a filial kid. Didn’t Xiuhe leave? How about keeping her to replace Xiuhe? Get up. Miss Qi has agreed? Get up. Thank Miss Qi. Thank Miss Qi.
Thank you, Miss Qi. Put up the flag of the Dragon King Gang before you cross Malacca. The pirates would give me some face. Hai, I’ll leave everything to you along the way. Don’t embarrass our Dragon King Gang. Long, I… What’s wrong? Nothing. Why are you hesitating? Just say it. He has a lover.
He doesn’t want to leave Xingzhou. No, Jiao. I said it was a joke. How can you embarrass me in front of Long? Long. I just want to ask you can you let someone else to escort the boat? I am a pumpkin growing in a tile pot. I’m good for nothing. Long.
Escorting the boat is a big deal. I’m afraid I can’t do it. You’re really hopeless. I’m promoting you. Do you want to work at the wharf for the rest of your life? My brother wants to give you a chance to make more money. If you don’t want to go,
We can ask others to. I’ll go. Hai. Didn’t you burn incense at the Tianfu Palace yesterday, hoping Long can promote you? What’s wrong with you today? I already have a wife. That fierce woman. You can flirt with her. Why do you take it seriously? What do you know?
I burned incense and made a wish to get a wife. Let me tell you. Tianfu Palace really works. I just prayed yesterday. My wife came to Xingzhou today. Honey. Long sent me to escort the boat. I’m afraid I won’t see you in half a month. What a loser. With a boss like you,
When can I become decent? Do you want a beating? Hai, can’t you see Jiao likes you? Nonsense. It’s not that you didn’t see it. You’re just playing dumb. Instead of being Long’s brother-in-law, you would rather chase a Red Head Woman who just got off the boat. What Red Head Woman? It sounds awful.
Isn’t that how people call them on the street? Didn’t you see they are young girls? Call them Red Scarf. Red Scarf sounds better. Okay. From now on, I’ll call them Red Scarf. Excuse me. I think you’re really obsessed. Brat. What are you talking about? I’ll break your legs. [Lu’s Residence]
Miss Bai has studied abroad. If you’re willing to be humble to be a family teacher of Zhanyuan, then it’ll be lucky for him. I’m flattered. How many years have you been in England? Well, I have studied for three years and one year of internship at Birmingham. Ma’am. Your English is so good.
You studied abroad too? I wish I had. Then I don’t need to hire someone to teach Zhanyuan. I can only speak a little, even though, I can’t speak well. No. Your pronunciation is very standard. Sorry for making you laugh. We’re not familiar with Mrs. Mai. But last year when she and Mr. Mai
Came to Xingzhou, they came to visit once. I remember I mentioned to hire a family teacher for Zhanyuan to help him study English. I didn’t expect she is quite warm-hearted. She wrote such a long recommendation letter, Mrs. Mai is really enthusiastic. She knew I was coming to Xingzhou, so she introduced me
Your Lu family, the most prestigious family in Xingzhou. Miss Bai. You praised both Mrs. Mai and our Lu family. You’re really broad-minded. You have studied in Britain. In Shanghai, you must be a valued talent. Why would you come to Xingzhou to be a family teacher? When my father was young,
He has been in Xingzhou and couldn’t forget this place. Now, he’s gone. I want to revisit it to fulfill his wish. What a filial child. I admire you. Others say our Lu family is wealthy. I didn’t know until I took care of the family. It’s just a bluff. So I can’t afford
40 dollars per month. How much would you like to offer? Zhanyuan. How much do you think is appropriate for us to offer Miss Bai for teaching you? Give her four hundred. She’s so pretty. You should give her more. Young Master. Thank you. What a kid. Go play. When your grandma comes out,
Come and tell me. Miss, see you tomorrow. Go. Miss Bai. Zhanyuan goes to the best school in Xingzhou. You just need to tutor him at night. You will eat and live the same with me. 30 dollars a month. What do you think? Well. As you wish. You are straightforward. It’s settled then. Sister.
Sister. Why isn’t dinner served? I’m starving. Don’t eat. I’m hungry. Your dress has a narrow waist. What if it breaks if you eat too much? Don’t you want to leave a good impression on Xueting? Sister, your necklace is so beautiful. Mom is biased. She leaves you the only one that’s gorgeous.
I have nothing. Look at my neck. Still naked. Bihua, we have a guest. Who is she? You came by boat? You and Lu Xueting took the same boat? You came with him? So, you and him are… My name is Bai Wei. I’m here to apply for the family teacher of the Young Master.
Family teacher? You scared me. Miss Bai, please sit down. My sister, Jin Bihua, has been spoiled by me since she was young. Don’t mind it. Sister, you didn’t spoil me. If you really spoil me, just give me this necklace. Bihua.
It’s not like I’m taking it. Just lend it to me for one day. Mom. Grandma, Uncle Xueting, and my dad are downstairs. Xueting. What’s the hurry? My lady, dinner is ready. OK. I see. Go. Let’s go. Miss Bai. Excuse us. My brother-in-law came back from studying abroad. I can’t treat you alone.
Ms. Huang will arrange dinner for you. Thank you, Ma’am. Mrs. Huang, thank you. Yes. Miss Bai, please come with me. Thank you. I’ll carry it myself. Here we are. This room is so beautiful. Dinner will be here soon. Wait. Thank you, Mrs. Huang. Miss Bai, right? I dare not accept the money.
I didn’t even carry the luggage for you. I don’t know how many more trouble I will cause you in the future. Thank you, Miss Bai. You’re welcome. Dinner is ready. Hurry up. Dinner is ready. Hurry. I’m really hungry. Me too. Smells good. Here, have some. Tianqing, the seats are all taken.
Where should we eat? Let’s go. Let’s eat inside. Who is it? Why are you looking at me? Eat. What dish is this? It’s dried with salt and steamed with the rice. Just eat it. How? Why did you come here to eat? To attract flies? If the flies keep buzzing
And bite on your faces, will you be able to sleep? Even if you will, I won’t. I fear flies the most. Get out. This is where you sleep. Don’t ever bring food in. Remember this. We… We’re new here. We don’t know the rule. I’m sorry, Gui. Get out. The room smells like food.
Let’s go.
