:02:00
- everything your mommy wants for you.
- Oh.
:02:04
Like blowing out candles
on your birthday cake.
:02:21
- Like it?
- It's great.
:02:24
It's gonna be great for June..
:02:27
I bet the twins
are in China right now...
:02:29
dreaming about
their little American sister.
:02:33
Yes, but their mother...h
:02:35
that's who they waited for
all these years.
:02:39
- They will be so sad.
- They already know.
:02:42
Auntie Lindo wrote them.
:02:52
As a little girl,
I wondered every day.
:02:58
Worst of all,
I had to wonder in secret.
:03:03
I had no memory
of my mother...
:03:06
because she was
kicked out of the house...
:03:08
when I was four years old.
:03:12
An Mei.
:03:16
You are not my daughter.
:03:22
If you have any self-respect...
:03:23
you should kill yourself.
:03:29
Your husband just died...
:03:31
and you've become
another man's concubine.
:03:38
- An Mei!
- The scar from the soup...
:03:41
was all I had left
of my mother.
:03:45
My grandmother, my uncle
and my aunties...
:03:49
they taught me to hate her.
:03:52
They accused her of breaking
her vow as a widow...
:03:56
and running away
to marry a rich man...
:03:59
who already had a wife,
two concubines and other children.
