Love Blossoms

I've been watching Mediacorp's LOVE BLOSSOM (I & II) lately...
on Astro AEC, 8pm weeknights...

well... part I is more cheerful, and part II, due to the frequent apperance of certain irritating character (for eg. Lu Gua, and Zi Pen) it's showing a little bit of straining emotion among characters in this show...
and also, finally the way Kai Wang live his life... timebomb exploded (last night's episode, I think it's 28)

anyway...
as the closest asian chinese life to m'sian chinese will be s'poren, maybe that's the reason I watch this show...
as it portrays lots of social/family problem, that can be very similar to what m'sian maybe experiencing...

1 event just happened lately, to Kai Wang and Qing Xiong (KW's brother-in-law)...
which keeps telling me... and the rest of the audience (I suppose)
first, do not blame others for your misfortune (not really misfortune, but chinese's saying is, "not given a good chance")
second, do not be greedy, especially those big earning opportunities...
ultimately, ie. telling you, do not be greedy!!! there's no free lunch in this world... period!

Kai Wang - a good person indeed, always like to help friends (but help too much that he ignores his own family's interest), and trust anybody easily...
his wife Zi Jing scolded him this, which is very true, I think... (to some people out there, of course, I'm not referring to anybody ^_^)
she scolded him, that, he only knows how to blame the others when things happened, for eg. his business no good, he didn't manage to bid a stall in the market to re-start his business, etc. he blames others for his misfortune, by not realizing his own problem...
his wife, Zi Jing, after getting over her gambling addiction problem did not want to go back to him, he blames her for falling in love with another man, and blame that man (the one who gave his wife a second chance) for snatching his wife away...
but as Zi Jing keep telling him, their problem is not external, it's within the 2 of them...
ie. the way Kai Wang lives his life... he's his own florist business (those that sell flower in the market, doing auntie's business) and he does not have saving, in Love Blossoms I, their problem is, he keeps asking Zi Jing to have a second child, but Zi Jing refused to, as he does not provide her with financial security... I was a bit irritated when I watch part I, when Zi Jing keeps saying money money money... but then, in part II, I am kinda siding Zi Jing more, as what she's saying is right...
he doesn't have stable income, doesn't have savings, and whenever friends need help, he just lend them as much as he has, leaving the flower stall aside... leaving the wife taking care of the stall herself...
and when their only daughter Fei Fei grows older, need computer, need to attend dance class, etc. he doesn't have THAT BIT of EXTRA $$$ to provide to them...
ya, if I'm Zi Jing, probably I'll die, vomitting blood, having this type of 'childish' husband!!!
and that's why, Zi Jing refused to have a second child...

anyway, regarding Qing Xiong...
ya, have a short affair with some don't-know-who woman, cheated all his money, a.k.a investment for gemstone mining in somewhere...
and that's what I call GREED...

as we all know, even at present, in m'sia, we can still hear news where there're people who got cheated
(oh, let me sidetrack a little bit, as I was watching the "police news" - a local short film telling day-to-day crimes, there're actually people who believe by paying certain amount of money to somebody, and somebody can give them some NUMBERS so that they can strike lottery!! ya, "like that also can ah??", yes, I tell you, LIKE THAT ALSO CAN, else why would the police talks about it in TV shows... but I just find it unbelieveable, why would there be people who'll believe that, they can have money in such manner!!.. the only way to have money, is to earn it yourself, with hardwork!!)

as of yesterday's episode, Qing Xiong runaway, cos, he actually cheated his clients' money (those cupid centre, bring "wives" from vietnam for s'porean men) after being persuaded and conned by that don't-know-who woman... and he handed that mone to this woman, this woman runaway with the money with the man behind all this scam!!!
come on, if anybody come and tell me that giving tham a few thousands, can have handsome return, I won't give.. what more to say, if I've already have my own business which is quite established!!
why would I??

chinese saying:
腳踏實地
不要怨天尤人

ps: after these straining relationships in the show, the part that I like to watch most, is the Peter Pan's family and Wen Hao... at least, that side is more cheerful...
ps: even the relationship between Hai Tong & Machi's... this storyline is putting me on my nerves... just too draggy a little bit, in Part I, actually I don't mind Hai Tong, but in Part II, she gets on my nerves!!
