Where is he?

Why can't I see my handsome and confident Brother Ye?

Who is that woman?

I told you to keep a close eye on Brother Ye during my absence in case other women approached him.

Tell me. What happened?

Your Highness. Young Master has never been interested in women.

He had just married this Madam Ying a few days ago.

I thought she would be like the first three madams.

Who knew she would suddenly gain the Young Master's affection?

That pisses me off!

The childhood sweetheart I raised has been stolen by someone else.

[The Blessed Bride] [Episode 4]

Who are you? Why are you suddenly in my master's room?

How dare you!

This is Princess Luoxin, the precious daughter of the Eighth Prince.

You're Brother Ye's new concubine?

Brother... Ye?

Yes.

Brother Ye and I grew up together.

I've always called him by this nickname.

Why does Ling Qiye only attract these kinds of women?

This will be a headache.

Since you call my husband "Brother Ye",

then shouldn't you call me "Sister-in-law" Liuying?

Come on. Let me hear it.

This is Brother Ye's favorite thing.

Ever since I was little, he's only let me touch it.

I think I rinsed my mouth with it yesterday.

This is the calligraphy brush I gave him.

I didn't expect him to have treasured it until now.

This? He stopped using it a long time ago.

Now, I use it as a backscratcher.

He likes sweet food.

He likes spicy food now.

His favorite color is turquoise.

He said I look best in turquoise, so he asked me to wear it often.

He went to the Imperial Academy with me, spent several Chinese Valentine's Days with me,

and went rafting on the lake with me.

He...

sleeps with me.

What do you mean? How dare you talk back to Her Highness?

That's far from the truth.

Your Highness. Everything I've said is the truth.

To be honest with you, I'm the future madam of the Ling family.

I'm of noble birth and am favored by His Highness.

If you mess with me again, when I become a member of the family...

Your Highness.

Come with me.

Brother Ye.

Young Lady.

When did you get back?

Early this morning.

Brother Ye, I came to see you as soon as I got back.

Did you come to see me or cause trouble for my concubine?

Sorry.

I won't do it again.

Your Highness. You were too young before, so I didn't say much.

Towards you, I've always seen you as my younger sister.

I have no romantic feelings toward you at all.

So I hope that you'll stop causing trouble for Madam Ying.

When I meet His Majesty in the future, I'll help you choose a great husband.

In what ways is she better than me?

She isn't as pretty as I am and her social status aren't as noble.

Why do you like her and not me?

She does have many flaws.

She likes to mess around because she's a little bit clever.

She likes to act like a spoiled child in front of me because she thinks she's pretty.

At the same time, she's also a despicable woman.

She is too kind to the people around her, making her an easy target.

If she's not that great, then why do you like her?

You're right.

Why did I fall for such a woman?

Brother!

Brother. What's wrong, Brother?

You're here?

What happened to your mouth?

A minor problem. It'll be fine in a few days.

Then why did you have someone pass me a message saying that you're terminally ill?

I thought something was seriously wrong with you.

I was so worried.

- Do you want some? - No.

Sister, actually, I do have something to talk to you about.

Do you see the wooden box above the cabinet?

Go...

Go get it for me.

Here you go.

Be careful.

Your great-grandfather's mother's uncle's

second uncle's uncle's grandaunt's boyfriend neighbor

developed this magical Yangchun Pill.

This?

This pill has been passed down for several generations and is very precious.

It needs to be stored in a special way in order to retain its unique medicinal properties.

This method really is strange.

Then... what does it do exactly?

This Yangchun Pill is a holy grail product for nourishing yin and strengthening yang.

After one course of treatment, one day in the mountains would be a thousand years in the world.

To tell you the truth,

I went to the Ling's Residence last time to find out

whether Ling Qiye's feelings for you are sincere.

It seems that this Ling Qiye is indeed a qualified husband

and worth trusting.

Now, I'm passing the last amazing, secret recipe of the Zhou family to you.

I hope you can take it to greater heights.

Brother. You mean I don't need to take action against that Ling Qiye anymore?

Right.

I thought it through after getting sick.

As long as my sister is happy, what more can a brother want?

So, you can give this secret pill to the Ling family.

Count it as... my gift as part of your dowry.

Being able to make you come around is more difficult than getting Chang'e to marry Zhu Bajie. (TN: the moon goddess and a pig character from Journey to the West)

Then, I'm accepting your goodwill.

Thank you, Godbrother.

What?

You want to eat green onions?

I said, you're deaf.

Eat green onions?

Tear green onions?

Sounds so familiar.

[Huichun Hall]

Put the freshly dried herbs over there.

Be careful!

Don't you drop this medicine pot!

Okay.

Put this down there. These two cannot be stored together.

Everyone! I have something to say.

Our previous mahjong shop did quite well financially, but

how can it be as great and meaningful as benefiting mankind?

Right?

So, I've decided that from now on, the future of our shop will be up to me,

Yue Liuying, to ensure it prospers.

- Great! - Wonderful!

Everyone, get back to what you were doing.

Let's get back to work!

Madam Ying. Let's have a word.

Well, is our pill actually effective?

Drop the question mark.

Of course, it's effective!

This is the Zhou family's ancestral secret recipe.

Haven't you heard that song before?

What song?

One pill a day,

spirits are high.

Three kids in two years, eight kids in five years!

I heard it when I was a kid.

So this is what it was referring to?

Then, we'll definitely make a lot of money!

You can just wait for Young Master to praise you.

But, shopkeeper, I’m counting on you

and an the entire staff to work hard to achieve these results!

Right. Work hard, everyone!

Go get it!

The future is up to you all!

With this recipe, the Ling's Infimary will be raking in the money.

I'm really an ordinary, little money-maker.

Brother Ye, I wrote something for Sister Yue.

I want you to help me take a look. [Tea]

Brother Ye? If you still don't say anything, I'm going to enter your bedchamber.

Brother Ye?

This is a great opportunity.

Let's see what this evil woman's real relationship with my Brother Ye is.

Even their necessities aren't placed in the same place.

As expected, their love is fake.

If Brother Ye's parents find out, this evil woman will be kicked out for sure.

Brother Ye, I'm definitely going to snatch you back.

You brat!

How long were you planning to hide it from us?

If Luoxin hadn't noticed, right now I would've still been kept in the dark!

I didn't expect that you would still be so hot-tempered even after fasting and praying to Buddha a month.

My poor grandson!

Even now, you're still only a star in the sky!

Are your ungrateful parents

still planning to bring you, the shining star, here to our Ling Manor?

Your poor grandmother!

Our family property is ready,

but the heir is still not here yet!

Mother, you've misunderstood.

Liuying and I indeed have been sleeping in separate rooms lately,

but this is to prepare for the birth of a healthy child.

I even asked the physician.

The physician said, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

It's easier to conceive this way.

In that case, I've misunderstood you.

Mother, don't worry.

It's our duty and responsibility to carry on the Ling family's legacy.

Since when was that on our agenda?

- Here you go. Take care. - This way.

This is yours. Here you go.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Madam Ying. Let me tell you.

The profit of our infirmary this month has grown this much.

That much?

When I just came, I saw two unknown servants carrying two boxes.

What's in them?

They were carrying Yangchun Pills.

Look!

These pills are in short supply now.

Although we have the secret formula, we can't produce that many.

Luckily, your godbrother asked people to send ready-made pills here every day to help us.

Otherwise, I really don't know how we could satisfy the strong demand from the people.

These troublesome Yangchun Pills are also my godbrother's love for me.

Right.

Shop keeper. Were these delievered today?

Yes.

I wonder if this batch will be different from the previous ones.

Since you're busy, I shall leave first.

Madam Ying, take care!

Take care.

This way, please.

[The Secret of Mandarin Ducks]

Mother! Why are you locking the door?

Mother! Open the door!

Stop wasting your breath.

She won't open the door.

What is she doing?

Is she really to force us to do it behind closed doors?

Congratulations, you're right.

Darling. What were you reading?

That's too spicy!

I wasn't reading. I was looking at you.

My mother gave us this "Secret of Mandarin Ducks" book.

She ordered us to study it over and over again.

We must study it three times a day, then she'll allow us to leave this room.

Since when do you listen to her?

Is it like this?

Be careful!

All right.

You're in my way. Move aside!

Young Master is busy right now. He has no time to see guests right now.

Busy with what?

Thanks to Your Highness, Young Master and Fourth Madam are trying to get pregnant.

You...

We're done!

We can finally show report back.

You're planning to show this to your mother?

She'll be furious!

But I think they are pretty cute!

I wonder if our future child will be this cute too.

If that's the case, then should the two of us work hard at it?

You short sighted fool!

I'm sorry, Your Highness. I made a mistake, Your Highness.

Your Highness...

Even if Your Highness can't get the man you love, there's no need to vent your frustration on others.

Who are you?

How do you know that I'm the princess?

Ying'er told me of course.

Not only did she tell me this, but she'll also tell me everything that happens in Xuling Manor.

Ying'er?

Madam Ying?

That's right.

To be honest, Ying'er and I both have a irreconcilable grudge against the Ling family.

She went to the manor to take revenge with her own hands and bring the Ling family down.

So she's the one who told me all this.

How dare Yue Liuying!

How dare she treat the Ling family like this!

I'm going to tell Brother Ye!

Do you think Ling Qiye will believe a word out of you?

Then, why did you come to me today?

You make a great ally.

Your Highness.

Ying'er doesn't like Ling Qiye.

If you want to be with him so badly, why don't we collaborate?

After our job is done, I'll have Ying'er personally deliver Ling Qiye to you.

Who exactly do you think you are?

I would never betray Brother Ye.

If you and your hypocritical sister dare hurt Brother Ye in the slightest,

I won't let either of you off!

Should I go then?

Show him out!
