Brother, you've seen many doctors...

why are you still sick?

You're getting worse.

I think you should...

Don't worry.

I know how to take care of

my own affairs if I die.

I wasn't referring to that.

I meant your estate.

Someone ought to look after that.

You have long set your eyes

on my estate.

Of the three of us,

elder brother has long gone;

You might follow him soon.

Reckon you should

leave your estate to me,

... so I can help you manage it.

Damn you,

though I have no wife or child...

I'll not leave my estate,

... to a spendthrift like you

- What...

- Hi...

Godpa, he's dying soon.

And once dead, it'll all be yours,

Who else can get?

You're right.

You better rest soon.

Master, don't lose your temper.

Dai Nan, since your father

passed away...

I've treated you as one of my own.

I know.

I now have two favors to ask of you.

Master, please go ahead.

You've been very kind to me,

I'll do what you ask.

Firstly,

After I'm dead...

bring my will and,

titles of my property ownership

out of town

Take it to my brother's fourth child

Yu Jing Chuen.

Yu Jing Chuen

Secondly, I want you to become

my second wife.

Master, l...

Don't worry, I'll be dead soon.

However, officially as my wife...

even with me dead,

my brother won't be able to

snatch my assets.

In any event you'll be his auntie.

Good.

Go to Guang zhou

once you have the opportunity.

What should I do when I get there?

Hold on to this piece of ancient jade.

Jing Chuen will recognize you.

Master.

You've practiced

the Hung and Cai fist styles,

... as well as the Liu, Monkey,

and even the Sau Fa fighting styles.

I think that's enough.

Not yet.

Master, it's time...

Time for what?

Time to meet the boat.

To welcome auntie.

Are you going like that?

Quickly, hand me some clothes.

Hand me some clothes.

Remember the letter sent by auntie.

I know.

Ancestor's Roll of Honor

Let me remind you,

Your auntie doesn't recognize you,

... and you don't know her.

The letter says

she'll wear on her chest...

the piece of ancient jade

given by your uncle.

Then you'll...

Stop being so long-winded.

Just hand me auntie's letter.

West Village Pier

Brother, how many boats

are coming today?

Only one.

Is it Shun Li's boat?

No

So that means she hasn't arrived yet.

There it is.

Brother, is it Shun Li's boat?

Yes.

Careful, watch it there.

I have never been to receive

someone from a boat.

It's also the first time

auntie travels away from home.

No wonder.

Young Master, Young Master is back.

Auntie.

Why are you shouting?

What are you looking at?

You old man, haven't you

seen a woman before?

Sorry, I mistook you for someone else.

Hey, are you looking for anyone?

Mind your own business.

Old man, I'm waiting for someone too.

Looking for your grandpa?

My grandpa is dead.

So it must be your husband.

My husband is dead too.

Losing husband at this young an age;

You must be a bad omen.

You...

Miss, please don't be cross.

I'm just joking.

Who are you waiting for?

My nephew.

Your nephew?

I'm waiting for my auntie.

Your auntie?

Yes.

My auntie is supposed to

come on this boat.

I wonder why she's not here.

At her age.

she couldn't have gone far.

She said she'll be wearing

a piece of jade.

So troublesome!

Hey, is it this one?

Yes, this is it.

Miss, where did you pick it up?

Pick it up? My late husband

gave it to me.

Your late husband?

Yu Yan Sang.

Then you are...

What?

Then you are my auntie.

Nonsense.

No, I've got proof.

I'm Yu Jing Chuen.

Then I'm your auntie Jing Dai Nan.

- Jing Chuen.

- Yes.

Do you know why your uncle...

asked me to come to see you?

Because of the deed

and property ownership.

Auntie, let's go home and talk later.

Alright.

Tea Place

Let's get a ride.

Brother, we're going to Jing Yuen Lane.

For two?

No, for my auntie only.

No need.

Be careful.

I can see that.

What?

You don't have to take me by the arm.

Auntie, this ride could be

dangerous sometime.

- Are you afraid that I'll fall down?

- Yes

Don't worry.

Auntie, better be careful.

Let me help you.

No need.

Come...

Old man, you want to

take advantage of her?

Are you still up to it?

Hey, she is young enough

to be your grand-daughter.

How come they are so rude?

These people are rascals.

Never mind them, let's go.

- Go.

- Alright.

Wait.

What is it?...

Old man.

Who are you calling rascals?

Don't get me wrong.

She happens to be my...

Your mom?

She's my auntie.

You said this young lady is your auntie.

Do you take us for fools?

What's so funny?

Jing Chuen,

don't meddle with these scums.

Let's go.

B*tch, you dare to quarrel with me?

I say you're a lousy bastard.

Auntie.

Gotta teach them a lesson.

Right.

You're good.

You skunk, you want to

take people's advantage.

... you should be beaten up.

Auntie, never mind them.

Don't take them seriously.

Auntie, your kungfu is really good.

Look, they know they are wrong.

Get on the vehicle, let's go.

Remember...

don't ever try to bully senior folk.

Listen more to the elders.

Now scram.

- Let's go.

- Alright.

Please.

This is the study.

Antiques, calligraphy;

everything from our ancestors,

... I have kept them well.

This way please.

This is the altar of our ancestors.

I pay respects to it every day.

Auntie, please go to the living room.

Please.

Ah Choi.

Master.

Ah Choi is a bit deaf..

Master.

You must have

missed your auntie's boat.

I did remind you earlier

that you've practiced past

the time you should go.

- This is auntie.

-Who's this young lady?

- Auntie.

- Oh.

Auntie.

Your auntie.

Auntie, please be seated.

and accept my greetings.

Auntie, have some tea.

Auntie, have a smoke.

Jing Chuen, I've been married to

your Uncle for long;

Yet I haven't had a chance to meet you.

Yes.

Do you know...

why I've come here from home;

I mean, in such a hurry?

Is it because there's problem

with the inheritance

... uncle left for you?

No.

Your uncle did not

leave his estate to me.

He left it for you.

For me?

Right. It's been stated in his will...

that I've to deliver in person to the

fourth son of his elder brother

Yu Yan Chi.

Uncle really loved me.

It should be for you.

My father and I enjoyed

much kindness from your uncle.

I married your uncle to repay

his kindness

... not for the inheritance.

That should be given to

third uncle instead.

Third uncle will come

and snatch it away anyway.

Your third uncle does evil deeds

... and oppresses the village folks.

Why would your second uncle

bequeath anything to him?

Third uncle is still up to his old ways

... bullying people with his kung fu?

That's why second uncle said;

his assets cannot be

bequeathed to him,

as they would only make him

more degenerate,

Jing Chuen, your second uncle

left his assets for you

as he was confident

you would manage them well.

You are morally upright

... and can take care of me.

Yes, but auntie..

I lead an easy life in the city

and you're so young
