[Cinderella Chef]
[Episode 38]

Hello, Madame.

What are you doing here?

Mingyu? They all told me that you lost your memory.

Now, I think it's true.

Child, are you well?

I can't remember who you are.

Why don't you at least show your respect, this is the Princess Royal.

- Princess Royal? I pay my respects to Your Highness.
- There's no need.

You must have gone through a lot out here.

Your Highness, he is now living in the Marquis Manor.

I will take care of him, let's get back to our main task here.

Mingyu, did you see Liuli?

Your Highness, he can't remember anything.

In my opinion, let's look for her by ourselves.

- Hey, what are you doing?
- Sorry.

Let me rest here a bit.

Liuli, I like you so much.

The wine, the wine...

Your Highness, this way, please.

Why are you here?

I come here with Mingyu to taste the dishes made by Madame Rong.

Are you here for the same reason?

Where did you hide them?

Who? Who is my mother looking for?

They are not here. They must be somewhere else.

That's enough, Wen Zhen.

Xia Chunyu,

it's been years since we met. It's no surprise that you grew up into a man with fine features

and much charm.

Today, I have become exhausted by doing all this with you. Let's leave.

Princess Royal!

Chunyu, how was it?

Thanks to you, Mingyu.

Not a big matter. I do what I can to serve the world and the people in it.

Chunfeng, your mother's heart is deep and quite scheming.

I am afraid she might come back again. Let's get out of here.

Don't touch me. You bastard!

Princess, you know his personality.

The incident was not his true intention. Somebody else designed this.

It's getting late if you don't go back now.

How will you explain the reason to the Princess Royal.

But...

I was insulted and humiliated with shame.

Princess...

Brother Chunyu...

If today's incident was heard by others

your reputation will be badly tarnished.

So you should keep this secret for the best of everyone.

- Do you feel better?
- Yes.

We have to go.

Let's go.

Yes.

I promise you.

Shopowner, here she is.

Move aside.

Shopowner.

Chef Ye, all of this is due to you.

Shopowner, you also devoted a lot. How can I help you?

The room you are living in now is dirty and shabby.

It's hot and stuffy, plus there are too many men up there.

I feel that it's kind of inconvenient for you.

You should move to a better place.

The first time you saw me you knew that I was a woman,

you didn't think it was inconvenient at that time.

How can then and now be the same? What is your role right now?

The first Chef of the Capital bestowed by the Emperor.

You should live in a better place.
(House Deed)

This is for you.

Did you rent or buy this?

I bought it.

Your name is even on it.

[Ye Jiayao ]

Shopowner, based on the average price,

- such a big house is not cheap..
- That' true.

My monthly salary is only 15 liangs of silver. Even if you increased it,

I can't buy such a big house.

Also, you see, this house is really far away from our restaurant.

That might make me late for work. I don't want it.

No, no, you can be late for work. This house is only for you.

What do you mean?

Boss, just tell me your mind directly.

Even if you don't give me this house, I will help you if you want me to do something for you.

Your reputation represents our restaurant.

So you can come to cook when you are happy.

If you are not happy, you can choose not to come. I will pay you regardless.

And the salary will increase by one time, two times, three times, four times, five times!

You're scaring me.

Didn't you tell me before,

that Tianshang Hall...

was open for business, not for charity!

Are you sure you can be this generous?

Of course!

- Hello, Madame Xia.
- Madame?

Madame? What Madame? Are they talking to me?

Yes, you are the Madame.

You finally realize it.

The Marquis' Heir Apparent said it in front of the Emperor,

about the relationship between you and the Marquis' Heir Apparent.

So, from now on, won't your life go wherever you want it to?

Our restaurant will also benefit from you.

Please take care of us. Thank you so much!

Boss, thank you for the good intentions. But I can't take this house.

Huh? No, Chef Ye!

This is your private belonging, you should take better care of it.

Royal Aunt...

It's all right.

I didn't mean to blame anything on you.

Xia Chunyu is a handsome man.

It's hard to find a man like him.

I was young before and I know your heart.

Madame Xia is here.

Showing my respect to Your Highness and Princess.

Rise and please sit.

Xiaoya, please bring the Jade Buddha artifact.

Yes.

Royal Aunt?

Wen Zhen, what do you think of this treasure?

It's such a delicate artifact which is like it was made by nature.

This is not only expensive, more importantly, it is my personal favorite.

I plan to bestow this on your Marquis of Jian'an Manor.

Your Highness, this is your personal favorite.

How can I take it from you?

When Liuli becomes the Consort,

I will give it to her as a present.

Wen Zhen, if you accept it, please take good care of it.

I don't know who caught Your Highness' attention.

It was Xia Chunyu.

There is something Your Highness may not know very clearly.

My son, Chunyu, already has a match for marriage.

Although, they didn't have a formal wedding ceremony,

in terms of attachment, since they have strong feelings for each other.

I wouldn't dare such a thing as to separate mandarin ducks such as they.

But since Xia Chunyu is not formally committed,

why can't this palace fulfill the dream of our princess?

Liuli, in the future, you have to take good care of your husband.

I will.

-Your Highness, but...
- Also,

Princess, you are very important to me.

Your appearance and personality are among the best in the Empire.

Who knows how many more women cooks are out there? Madame.

Oh, yes.

Thanking you for your kindness.

Rise.

Lately, the Emperor has been upset about the incidents in Ximin.

I will send the request for this marriage to the Emperor.

Royal Aunt, I want to be with you for several more years.

This is not from your heart.

Royal Aunt, please don't make fun of me.

Royal Aunt.

If you have somebody to rely on, then I will be pleased.

If I am happy I will naturally live longer.

Xiao Jing Jing, take it easy.

- Xiao Jing--
- Da Yao Yao.

Why did you bring me here?

Wait a second.

Look.

What do you think? Isn't this beautiful?

Yes.

The fireworks are so beautiful, you should also be happy every day.

I am delighted every day.

Don't you know?

Princess Royal has bestowed Princess Liuli on Brother Chunyu for marriage.

Even the Emperor hasn't given the edict yet.

But this is almost certain to happen soon.

No wonder he was in a hurry to get me in that golden house.

Da Yao Yao, can you be with me?

I don't care what happened between you and Xia Chunyu.

I don't care at all.

Da Yao Yao, be my woman, all right?

Let's go travel and taste all the delicious food around the world.

No, Xiao Jing. Since we met,

I look on you only as my friend, my younger brother.

I didn't know that you were a girl before.

Look, you can cook and I can taste.

We are a heaven-made couple.

We are not.

No, we are.

I haven't liked any girl before, like now.

You know that.

We match each other in personality, temper, and many other aspects.

- Xiao Jing.
- Look,

you know this bracelet from before, this is--

That's enough, Xiao Jing!

You are a grown-up now, how can you still not know to never steal a friend's wife?

What friend's wife? You are going to marry someone else. Do you want her to be the concubine?

What nonsense you are talking about?

In the past, present,

and in the future, Yao Yao is my only wife.

She won't ever be together with you.

This is only your own opinion.

You see. Da Yao Yao didn't admit to your words.

What I can give her,

what can you give her?

What do you mean by saying that?

Considering that you are still a kid, I don't want to argue with you in detail.

But if you go too far,

don't say that I am being rude.

What can you do? Beat me?

So what if you have such a high level of martial arts? Beat me then.

- Beat me.
- Try me.

- I am not afraid--
- Stop it right now!

- Yao Yao.
- Da Yao Yao.

I don't want to listen to either of you talk or see you start fighting each other.

- Yao Yao!
- Da Yao Yao!

Don't either of you follow me!

N-No, I really like you--

You shut up!

Yao Yao.

- Yao Yao.
- Move.

Before the Emperor announces his Imperial Edict,

we still have a chance to change the result.

Even without Liuli,

I won't be together with you anymore.

What do you mean?

Last time, you said, let's start over. I thought about it.

We have so many differences in terms of roles, social status, and family.

We don't match each other. We don't think alike.

If you're really thinking of a situation that's best for me,

let me go to Tianshang Hall and be a good chef there.

That's more than enough.

Staff, before we start our business today,

I want to tell you one thing.

I've sold Tianshang Hall.

What?

Didn't you hear me clearly?

Boss, our business is booming. Why did you sell it?

Yes, why?

Are you the boss or am I the boss?

Also, the new boss is strict, unlike me who is lazy.

He told me I have to do this hand-over task well.

So, everyone what do you say?

Everyone must be refreshed!

Yes.

Dismissed now.

Chef Ye, please wait a second.

What's wrong?

Boss, I understand that you are not in a good mood.

Someone said that you asked for two days off?

Didn't you know that? I went to find Longfeng for cooking skills.

Even your cooking skills are linked to our restaurant's reputation.

But I think this better not happen anymore.

Why are you a bit different from before?

Ah... I got it.

Is it because there are some spies around here arranged by the new boss? Your acting skills are not bad.

Be serious, I am talking about a serious matter with you!

Do you know that all of these are because of you! You! You! You! You!

The cost of our private room on the third floor decreased over 20%!

So this 20% will be made up by deducting it from your salary.
- No.

- No wait, I--
- Also.

The verbal promise we made about your subsidies,

our new boss thinks this is really bad.

So starting now, those promises are no longer valid.

I...

Okay, new officials tend to apply more strict rules. But tell him that

what he is doing will lose more talents.

I don't think he will.

Okay, let me give you two options.

One is that everything goes on like before. Or...

I will just quit.

Great, the new contract talks about this very clearly.

If the chef wants to quit her job,

she has to pay for the economic losses of the restaurant.

Plus 620 liangs of silver each day for the water.

You signed a contract for three years but you've only worked for a few months.

With words going back and forth, that probably comes to 2200 to 3200 liangs of silver.

So you can pay the money all at one time and you can leave.

No, how much money do I earn a month, a few pieces of silver?

2300 liang? Why don't you just rob me?

Before I didn't bother to manage you well... Go to work now!

Before, I thought you were a man with a kind heart.

Now, you change faces faster than any woman!

Let me ask you, is our new boss

the master who gave you the money?

What master? Nothing to do with any master.

But I have to tell you that I am still a man of kindness.

Now go to work! Farewell!

I know! Deduct the money!

Chef Ye, your work hours didn't reach six hours yesterday. Deduct the money.

Chef Ye, why didn't you serve the soy sauce meatballs yet? Deduct the money.

Chef Ye, you waste my ingredients when you invent new dishes. What do you think we should do?

Let me say it for you. Deduct the money.

All right. After several calculations,

you only have 1 liang of silver for payment this month.

Evil capitalistic blood-sucking ghost!

All right, bring on the raging storm.

- Are you satisfied?
- It was delicious.

Thank you for your coming.

Now the business in our restaurant is getting better and better.

- Let me tell you...
- The new boss?

I want to see who you are exactly.

The revenue for this month

increased to the three times that of last month.

I am not worried as long as you deal with these matters.

What about Yao Yao lately?

You want her to struggle,

so, of course, I did what you told me.

Remember, the worse her life is, the better this will be.

However badly her life becomes, is how much money I will reward you.

Thank you, Master.

Xia Chunyu, so it turns out you're the perverted boss!

You two talk it out first.

Are you tired? Have some tea.

Tea... what tea?

Mister High and Mighty, you spent a whole lot of money buying this restaurant

just to make me miserable?

I just happened to have had a lot of money and wanted to run a restaurant.

This is all about business, you think too much.

Liar! What do you want exactly?

I just wanted to tell you the truth.

You can't say such harsh things and not take a hit for it.

Here, the owner changed, and your life became uneasy. Right?

So what?

So you thought I'd have to depend on you, right?

That's not what I meant! Listen to me first.

I don't care what you meant.

Xia Chunyu, you are such a male chauvinist. You don't respect women at all.

Even if I don't have a penny or whatever,

I won't let you get what you wish to happen.

Yao Yao, listen to me first. Yao Yao!

Yao Yao!

This woman is still so bad-tempered and cranky!

She only listens to half of what I want to say!

Chef Ye...

Chef Ye!

Did the Heir Apparent do anything to you last night?

What do you think?

Actually, everyone knows how the Heir Apparent treats you.

If you admit your mistake, everything will be solved.

I don't want to listen to that. Can you not interrupt me when I'm cooking?

I didn't come here for that anyway.

A Special Envoy is coming to the palace today and the Princess Royal selected you to cook for them.

What?

Yes, go ahead.

Royal Aunt, you may taste the pear.

Liuli, your cooking is still so skillful.

Wen Zhen, Chunyu, please share this and taste it.

Little Princess is so loyal and obedient, it's a good blessing for Your Highness.

Liuli is not only my good blessing,

she's also a good blessing for your Marquis of Jing'an Manor.

Your Highness, I have something to say.

Don't hurry. You can talk after having the meal with me.

Your Highness!

Chunyu...

Sit down, please.

What is the trick you're playing this time?

Take it easy. You will know soon enough.

Royal Aunt, the dishes today are kind of different.

Of course.

These were prepared by the winner of

the cooking competition recently,

The Chef of the Capital, Ye Jinxuan.

For example, this grilled beef.

The beef is from a carefully raised small 19-month-old cow.

The meat would be too old if one month older.

The meat would be too tender if one month younger.

If it's that good, then please cut it and serve everyone.

Yes.

Take it slow.

This chef's knowledge of Paoding might become a favorite tale. (Paoding - use of the knife by chef to dismember an ox skillfully)

It means that to cut a piece of complex-stringed beef

is an artful skill.

How about asking Chef Ye to do it?

Please invite Chef Ye in.

Showing my respect, Your Royal Highness.

Princess.

Milady, Marquise of Jing'an.

Heir Apparent of Jing'an.

Your Highness, what about letting me cut the beef?

I am also good at cutting food, if not better than most cooks.

You are a Prince and Heir Apparent.

How can you do things servants should do?

You have to know the difference between the royal and citizen classes.

Each class should behave as they are supposed to and have expectations conforming to their class.

Only in this way can the two-classes be harmonious with each other and abide longer.

Chef Ye, don't you agree?

Yes, Your Highness, you are quite right. Now, I will cut the beef for everyone.

There's no need to trouble the Heir Apparent.

Afterall, isn't Chef Ye's main task in Tianshang Hall

to serve people?

Or is it because the social status of Princess Liuli and I

is not high enough to warrant the personal service of Chef Ye?

My son, Chunyu, doesn't mean that at all.

I hope Your Highness won't misunderstand.

Or is it because the Heir Apparent

just wanted to defend Chef Ye in front of me?

Your Royal Highness,

the Heir Apparent became the boss of Tianshang Hall restaurant.

He increased my working hours, cut my wages, and treats me quite rudely.

There is no evidence of him showing any defense of me whatsoever.

Today, he is only showing care about servants to look like a good master.

I think he's probably pretending all of this.

Your Highness, I am not feeling well. I will leave first.

Royal Aunt.

Brother Chunyu caught a cold and is afraid of also making you sick.

That's why he is in a hurry to leave.

Brother Chunyu, you respect your parents highly. Maybe Princess Royal just overthought it.

You can try talking with Royal Aunt.

Royal Aunt will be very happy.

Yes, Chunyu, sit down now.

- This is?
- This is from when the Ximin Envoys visited us.

This Huren Dance was introduced by them.

Very nice.

Your Royal Highness.

Princess.

Marquise, if you please.

Thank you.

This Huren dance is very interesting.

We don't know how he does it.

The slippery glass ball

travels inside and outside from his palms,

but always returns and stays in his hands.

Liuli...

- Yao Yao...
- Princess,

are you all right?

I'm fine.

How dare you! How can you perform when your skills are not ready. Somebody come here and drag him out!

Please spare my life! I beg your forgiveness!

Forgive me! Forgive me, please!

Xia Chunyu, Ye Jinxuan, are you aware of your faults?

What is it? What's wrong?

Aiya! This is such a sin!

I assume she is probably...

Xia Chunyu, do you have anything to say?

If Your Highness wants me to start from the very beginning,

then actually, Ye Jinxuan and I married a long time ago.

Even though we didn't have a marriage decree or a ceremony,

our lives are tied together and our love will last forever.

It doesn't make sense for me to marry another woman.

Your words seem quite persuasive,

but why, several days ago,

did you and Princess meet each other in secret at the Fengyun Hotel?

Frankly speaking, was it because you were cheating

and you just wanted to want to have both?

When did I ever meet the Princess in secret?

I happened to see the handkerchief of the Princess, I have it as evidence.

I think there are more things to be considered in this matter.

If you are smart and pragmatic enough, go back and prepare yourself well

to become her husband more cheerfully.

Otherwise, since today, the Princess's body was injured,

think on how you and that cook should be punished.

I will be responsible for that incident by myself.

But as a husband, if I didn't protect my wife well,

how could I qualify the merits of kindness, justice, filial piety, and fraternal duty?

What utter nonsense!

Considering that Ye Jinxuan is pregnant,

I will allow you to accept her as your concubine after three months.

I do this because of the Xia family's contributions to the country.

I have shown the maximum of my generosity in this decision.

This shouldn't even be considered, Your Royal Highness!

Ye Jinxuan is a strong-willed woman. If you insist on forcing her to become a concubine,

she will kill herself and so will I.

She is the only person in my heart.

And it is absolutely not half-hearted.

If I can't stay with her,

I prefer to die along with her...

and together become a ghost couple!

Xia Chunyu!

What are the advantages of this lady chef?

May I dare to ask you a question?

Are there any other important things to be done today?

What does that mean?

Since you asked me to tell you all of Ye Jinxuan's advantages,

I'd have to speak for three days and nights.

Of course, I need to ask you if you have the time to listen.

All right.

You may leave now.

Thank you!

Thanks to Madame's arrangements,

I heard Stupid Donkey's true words.

♫ Please stop at this moment. ♫

♫ Freeze the time. ♫

♫ Just Fading away from the scorching heat. ♫

♫ It still warm in my heart. ♫

♫ Looks like a big feast. ♫

♫ Memory is somehow sweet. ♫

Da Yao Yao.

Is this yours?

Yes, this handcuff was the starting point of our fate.

When Shopowner Zhong unlocked the handcuffs, I secretly hid one.

Later when I found out you were a girl, I hired someone to redesign it.

I had made it into a bracelet all by myself.

I wanted to give it to you a long time ago, but I never got a chance.

Now, at last, I can.

I can't accept it.

Why not?

Is it not beautiful enough or not expensive looking enough?

You know the real reason.

But Xia Chunyu tortures you too much, while using the premise of being the boss of Tianshang Hall.

- I think you two are--
- There is a reason for him to do that.

Actually, Xia Chunyu gave me a key before.

That key holds a lot of memories.

Although, I didn't do what he expected,

I still have that key in my heart.

So you see, I can't accept your bracelet.

I don't understand. Da Yao Yao, I don't like the woman you've become now.

I think everything has changed. We used to be very happy, you know.

Yes. I also hoped that I would always be Li Yao.

Have friends like you. Be happy every day.

Drink a lot and eat a lot of meat.

I'd forget all that happened to me.

But I know now in my heart,

that was all an escape.

I don't care who you are.

You want to be Li Yao then you are Li Yao. If you like being Ye Jinxuan, then you are Ye Jinxuan.

But I will always be your Xiao Jing Jing.

I can give up everything and leave the capital with you.

I don't mind if you have Xia Chunyu in your heart forever. Really.
