Crazy Rich Asians

Nick and Rachel head to Tyersall Park, and when they arrive, they find Nick’s Ah Ma (grandmother), Su Yi, on a ladder putting plastic bags over the fruit in the trees. They join her in the greenhouse for a British-style tea, which Ah Ma reveals that she only started serving once she married James Young, who was raised more British than Chinese. She reveals that she never takes British tea herself. She turns the topic to China’s promising economic future, asserting that Nick’s future is in Asia and not the West. When Nick objects, Su Yi says that he has become too comfortable with Western ways. Nick, not wanting to offend his Ah Ma, excuses himself to go and welcome her other guests, leaving Rachel alone with her.

Su Yi asks Rachel where her family is from. Rachel tells her that her mother is from Guangdong but that she never knew her father because he died before she was born. Su Yi asks about her mother, and Rachel explains that Kerry put herself through school and is now a real estate agent. Hearing that, Su Yi tells Rachel about her father’s ability to see people’s entire future just by looking at their faces.
