Reliving the nightmarish (or fun?!) experience that was Chinese New Year with the girlfriend's family! Have you experienced this before? What was it like? Sound off in the comment section below!
Oh and Happy Chinese New Year from all of us at OTGW!
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited for Chinese New Year.
Didn't you have fun last year?
I took you to meet my family.
Yes?
No, it was a disaster.
I mean, I started messing up right from the start.
What?
Shoes.
Oh.
I'm Lily's mother.
Hi Lily.
Hi.
You no touch of my wife.
Yeah, sorry.
I forgot to tell you that we don't really hug in our family.
But at least you got a red envelope.
He don't understand our culture.
Take this hongbao.
Yeah, and then your mom asked us a ton of awesome questions
and like totally embarrassed you.
You so thin, you should eat more.
By the way, how much money you making?
I'm in the $15,000 to $85,000 range.
Well, that's too bad, but you're welcome anyway.
And you know, this is Lily's father.
You already met him.
This is Lily's auntie, Cici.
And this is her cousin Tingting from China.
And Mia, you're getting so fat lately.
I think that's why you don't get a good man.
I mean, look at Tingting.
She's so wonderful, so beautiful and so talented.
Tingting, play her something.
Play her something.
Yeah, yeah.
I guess Tingting was like the ideal daughter or whatever.
And then there were more awkward questions.
So how long you two been friends?
And will you get married soon and buy big house?
Don't ask too many questions.
You're going to scare him.
You know how much money you make exactly?
Yeah, that.
But anyway, don't you want to see my sweet auntie Cici
and have her famous dumplings again?
Auntie made dumplings.
They look like gold ingots,
so they symbolize wealth and good fortune.
Money.
Dumplings.
Sweet auntie Cici?
Yeah.
She almost killed me with her knife.
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop.
Dumplings.
Oh, come on.
Let's just say that she has some sharp knife skills.
But you know what, though?
You should be glad you got to hear my dad's stories.
He only tells stories to people he likes.
When I was your age, I climbed down the mountain.
I swam across the lake.
I even walked 15 miles.
Every day?
Every day to school.
Getting the education, you know.
That's not how I would describe it.
I think it went a little more like this.
When the Guai Luo, you come to my village.
I always drink too much.
Okay, but I guess there was one thing I said
that totally impressed all of them
and totally made up for all my blunders.
Yu Lai Luo?
Fish in Chinese sounds the same as...
Nian Nian You Yu.
Uh, excuse me.
That's totally not what happened.
Yu Lai Luo?
Fish in Chinese sounds the same as...
