[Love Like White Jade]

[Episode 15]

This ancient sandalwood comb implies tying the knot.

This round bronze mirror portrays the completeness of love.

The silver scissors from Bing Zhou City and ancient coins from the Western Regions

are betrothal gifts from our Jiang Family.

B-B-Betrothal gifts?

Grandma, who's getting married?

You two.

Hu and I have already discussed it.

Look at how happy you are.

You are speechless now.

No, Madam Jiang, Young Master and I have no personal relationship with each other.

How could we get married?

Wu Xia, don't be afraid.

I already notified Hai Tang at Lang Ya.

You don't have to worry that being married to Bai Yu will affect your future career.

No, no.

Grandma, that is a mismatch.

Brother Shui and I...

What did you say?

Did I make a mismatch?

Don't you like Wu Xia?

I...

Do you really not like her?

Fine, it's fine if you don't like her.

After today, you won't get another chance like this.

- No, Grandma... - See how anxious you are.

No, Madame Jiang, Young Master is out of my league.

I wouldn't dare to have any improper thoughts.

That... that is not going to work.

Wu Xia, I understand.

You are proud and aloof.

You are ashamed to admit your feelings for a silly boy like Bai Yu,

but you can't hide your love for someone.

You two are so intimate with each other at home.

I have seen it all.

No, no, I don't... I mean...

All right, all right, you don't have to explain.

Your eight characters in the horoscope are a great match.

It's a match made in Heaven.

I am a firm believer in destiny, and I have always abided by divination.

That is why I ended up where I am today.

I am telling you, three days from now will be a highly auspicious day.

That will be your wedding day.

By the way, Grandma has a small gift for you.

A'Chang, come here.

I embroidered this myself.

This implies your love will not fade if the Koi remains intact.

Wu Xia,

I am entrusting Bai Yu to you.

I...

Lady Qi.

Junior Young Master.

Junior Young Master,

Young Master and Wu Xia... They...

Illusion Embroidery's magenta with double peacock design

- is festive and auspicious. - I don't want it.

This blue clouds from Excellent Quality House

is simple and elegant.

Well, does this fuchsia and black one suit your taste?

This new dish was created overnight by Drunken Immortal Pavilion.

- It is called Flawless White Jade. - I really don't...

- Lady Shui. - Lady Shui.

I really don't need them; take it away, okay?

- Lady Shui. Lady Shui... - I really don't want them.

But Madame Jiang said we must confirm all wedding garments and dishes with you and Young Master.

- Young Master and I aren't really- - Marriage is important.

I must consider these things carefully.

You can put them here and leave. Don't disturb us.

All right.

Jiang Bai Yu, are you really considering getting married?

Master Shui, I just fear you will act impulsively and alarm Grandma.

Wouldn't that be more troublesome?

We have three more days anyway. We should take our time to decide.

"Three more days"?

Within a short while, the entire Chong'an will hear the news.

How will we cancel the engagement then?

I can't wait another minute.

Brother Shui. Brother Shui!

Wait for me!

Brother Shui, listen to me.

If you tell Grandma this is just a misunderstanding now, she will never believe you.

Do you have a better idea?

I will tell Grandma I am in love with someone else.

Brother Shui, calm down.

Calm down. I'll explain.

One, if you tell Grandma you love someone else,

she will certainly interrogate you. How will you answer?

Two, Grandma did her utmost to organize a wedding for us.

That is because she misunderstood our relationship.

How will you answer her?

But...

Don't touch me.

We must clear up this misunderstanding.

I want to tell Madam Jiang the truth.

Otherwise, it will only get worse. Don't stop me.

Brother Shui, Grandma went to He's Mansion for tea.

She's not here. There's no use if you go now.

Where are you going, Master Shui?

I am going to see Ba Xi.

Sister, have some almonds to distract your mind.

They are too bitter.

Have some broadleaf holly tea to calm down.

Do you think my life is not bitter enough, Ba Xi?

No, Sister.

You can't rush this.

You can explain it to Madam Jiang when she returns tomorrow. Isn't that right?

You should be in charge of your own marriage.

One thing Jiang Bai Yu said was right.

Madam Jiang already misunderstood our relationship.

If I tell her at this moment that I love another, would she believe me?

What about Swordsman Shen?

What would he think if he finds out?

That is why I am here.

I have something else to do. I have to go.

What I just said... that was...

You don't want to marry him. I know that, of course.

Do you have a plan?

I plan to tell Madam Jiang that I am in love with another.

If she knows I'm in love with someone else,

she probably won't push this marriage for Jiang Bai Yu's sake.

If she inquires and you can't mention me, she surely won't believe you.

By then, instead of fixing the misunderstanding,

she will think you are hurting the Jiang Family's pride and blame you.

If she kicks you back to Lang Ya Pavilion, you can't stay in Chong'an anymore.

Maybe it's a bit rash, but I can't do anything about it now.

Madam Jiang believes in destiny.

Once she believes Jiang Bai Yu and I are destined to be together,

what can I do?

I have an idea.

Since Madam Jiang worships destiny,

why don't we start from there?

Make her believe it's bad luck for you to marry Jiang Bai Yu.

Th-That is a good idea.

But how will we implement it?

Isn't that young master always foppish (foolish) and unrestrained?

He must have an idea.

You are right.

Junior Young Master.

Why?

Why would Lady Shui be in love with Older Brother?

[Gathering of Blessings and Prosperity]

All Lady Qi cares about is Junior Young Master.

If we hang up these lanterns,

Junior Young Master won't be the only one who will be sad.

Young Master is getting married.

Why must you hang up lanterns in Junior Young Master's courtyard?

Madam Jiang said we must hang them everywhere.

But I know you are upset. I was about to-

I don't need your pity.

Lady Qi, I am not pitying you.

I am empathizing with you.

You are in a good mood. Why? Have you an idea?

I do have a good idea.

Doesn't Madam Jiang believe in destiny?

If we tell her we are on bad terms, would she...

Great idea!

Master Shui, you are very smart to devise such a good idea.

You know Madam Jiang better. What should we do?

I have my ways.

Well, I shall leave it to you then.

You look so stupid.

- Don't I look good? - No.

You should try it, too.

That is so silly.

Madam Jiang, congratulations on gaining such a lovely granddaughter-in-law.

Wu Xia has won me over.

I have been fond of her since the day she came,

but I didn't expect her to develop feelings for Bai Yu.

Exactly.

What a perfect match.

Today's snow fungus soup is sweet and smooth.

Madam Jiang, you are just feeling sweet inside.

Madam Jiang,

a flock of crows appeared in the garden and they won't stop cawing.

Should we shoo them away?

"Crows"?

That is not a good omen.

Don't be anxious, Madam Jiang.

Crows love to nest and wander in mixed flocks during fall and winter.

That is not very unusual.

Madam Jiang, the goldfish in the pond suddenly all flipped over and died.

Flipped over and died?

That is not a good thing.

This is a bad omen.

- Did you find out the reason? - I don't know, Madam.

I just checked, and I really couldn't find a reason.

Go! Check again.

Yes, Madam.

Why would something like this happen?

- What is going on? - What happened?

Amitabha, Amitabha (prayer).

Amitabha.

We had just set a date for Bai Yu's wedding

when all these strange things started happening.

Those are not good signs,

really not good signs.

Amitabha.

I will come to the Buddha Hall again tomorrow

to pray for a good omen for the two of them.

Amitabha, Amitabha.

Grandma must be wincing with worry.

How about it? It is a good idea, right?

Madam Jiang is always so kind to us.

Have we gone too far?

If we don't do this, we must get married.

Why? Do you want to marry me now?

You are overthinking.

I just thought it would hurt Madam Jiang's feelings.

I really feel bad for doing this.

I was the one who did and said those things.

If anyone needs to be held accountable for this, just blame it all on me.

How would that be possible?

I'm an accomplice for allowing it.

I can't let you take all responsibility for it.

Why are you so conflicted?

You are unhappy, either way.

Are you regretting it?

Do you really want to marry me?

Oh my gosh.

If I have any feelings for you, let me get struck by lightning.

Don't jump to conclusions.

I don't think these few bad omens are enough to convince her, though.

We must up the stakes.

How about... if lightning strikes the temple?

Are you crazy?

Madam Jiang prays there. How dare you do that?

Don't worry. I will do it without leaving any traces.

Put your hand down!

[Pawn ticket for fifty taels of silver]

Lady Shui and Young Master were as incompatible as fire and water,

yet in the blink of an eye, they are getting married.

I used to think she was a better fit for Junior Young Master.

Lady Shui and Young Master are truly quarrelsome lovers yet meant to be together.

From now on, we must call her Lady Jiang instead.

Yun Cheng,

why do you think it is Bai Yu?

How did Bai Yu end up with her?

Junior Young Master,

although you are better than Young Master,

the superior person might not be the most suitable match.

Junior Young Master likes Wu Xia.

Although she is excellent,

I might be more suitable for him than she is.

Even if I said it, she wouldn't be able to hear me.

Even if she heard it,

it would only cost her extra effort to reject me.

You are not the only one.

Come on.

The night is too long to remain sober.

Let the wine be a cure for your lovesickness.

Cheers.

At least someone is worried about you.

Who would worry about me?

Yun Cheng, give it to me.

Junior Young Master, you shouldn't drink anymore.

I will just take one more sip.

Stop drinking.

I... I...

Lady Shui is in love with Bai Yu.

She must be happy now that they have set a wedding day.

Jiang Tian Ling, oh, Jiang Tian Ling, you are a joke.

Junior Young Master likes Wu Xia.

Everyone likes Wu Xia.

In my world, Wu Xia is always the main character.

No matter how hard I try and how well I do,

Junior Young Master will never develop feelings for me.

Lady Qi,

in my world, you are the main character.

I don't want to be in your world.

Fang Yun Cheng, you are an idiot.

I don't need your understanding.

How do you know I don't understand you?

Is it really right to do that?

The store is right up ahead.

Think about it; Grandma gave us only three days.

If we don't stop this, you are really going to marry me.

Why, do you want to marry me?

Buddha, bless me. Amitabha.

Sorry for the offense.

What is wrong? Why are you sighing?

You asked to come to the marketplace.

Brother Shui, think about it.

I am destroying any prospects for my future marriage.

How sad would I be?

Brother Shui. Brother Shui.

Birth date predictions and divination!

Infallible "King Wen Hexagrams" (6 line diagrams)!

Fortune telling!

[Charms]

Can this thing induce thunder?

Fortune telling!

My charms are infallible.

- Really? Let me try it. - Try it.

I will try this Gentle Charm.

He... he is a swindler!

I thought of a place. Come with me. Hurry.

You are a swindler!

What would you like?

Something like this but a bit longer.

All right. One moment, please. I shall get it for you.

Shen Qing Li?

Turns out the stall owner is a fan of Shen Qin Li, too.

He is reading books about Shen Qing Li's chivalrous actions.

Swordsman Shen is a hero indeed.

"In the blink of an eye, Shen Qing Li clasps his hands around the harlot's waist."

"The harlot coyly-"

Wait. What is that nonsense?

These are written by unscrupulous merchants to make money.

Why are you so agitated?

I... Who wrote these lies?

Who told you they are lies? These are all true accounts.

The ex-husband of my third great-uncle's daughter saw it with his own eyes.

Nonsense!

I tell you, this place is unreliable.

Let's go to another stall.

Wait a minute. You are so riled up. What are you doing?

- These are all lies. - All right, all right.

- Sir, did you find it? - Yes.

He is surely not reliable.

Young Lady, what do you think about this?

This... this is...

See? I told you he was unreliable.

Sir, let me see that one.

Sure, sure.

Young Lady, please take a look.

What do you want to do with these wires?

You can get out of our ill-fated match with this.

Boss, I will take this one.

All right.

Just to be sure, I will link up another one.

Brother Shui, are you sure this will work?

There was a lightning conductor already installed on the roof,

but if we put this high-purity copper wire in it, we can induce thunder.

Judging by the weather,

there will be thunder and lightning within two hours.

Let's wait for the God of Thunder now.

Brother Shui, you are an absolute genius.

Maybe I should just marry you.

I will just bear your bad temper.

You would wish!

I would never do something like this if it wasn't to cancel the engagement.

Sorry for the offense, Buddha.

Madam Jiang, something terrible has happened!

What is wrong?

Buddha, bless us. Buddha, bless us.

Grandma! Grandma!

- What happened? - Bai Yu, come kneel down.

Wu Xia, come kneel down.

Let's pray to Buddha now.

Bodhisattva, I don't know what I did to offend you.

Please forgive me.

I have been a devoted believer of Buddhism.

Please bless us with safety and peace.

Bless us, Buddha. Bless us, Buddha.

Grandma, what happened?

- I... - The lightning struck the altar in Buddha Hall.

Wasn't this "Buddha Hall" passed down from Great Grandfather?

I have never heard of a lightning strike.

That is very strange.

Ever since my engagement with Young Master,

the Koi flipped over and died, the crows cawed,

and we had thunder and lightning.

Now, the lightning struck Buddha Hall.

Besides, I was feeling uneasy lately.

But... the great master made a prediction

and said your union was one in a million.

These incidents might not be related to your marriage.

Bless us, Buddha. Bless us, Buddha.

"Wine and meat may pass through our bodies,"

"but Buddha will always remain in my heart."

"We were brothers. You should worship me, too."

Bai Yu! Bai Yu!

"Worship me."

Do you like it?

Louder. Do you like it?

I do.

Go play.

Next!

You can go next, Lady Qi.

You can come now.

He is... Great Master, you are an experienced exorcist.

Has my nephew really gone crazy?

He has a deficiency of vital energy,

dysfunctional internal organs, and excess internal fire.

I think he is indeed possessed by a devil.

Well, what should we do, Great Master?

"What should we do"?

Father! Father!

Why are you here?

- I... - Where is your mustache?

Your mustache.

- Yu'er. - Brother!

Brother, are you here, too?

Why did you gain weight?

- This is horseplay! - Yu'er.

Yu'er.

Wu Xia?

Wu Xia, are you here, too?

Yu'er, I am Grandma.

I am Grandma.

Wu Xia's Grandma? Wu Xia's Grandma.

Monster!

Monster! Monster!

Hurry, Monster!

Show your true self now!

Do you dare to answer if I call your name?

You wouldn't dare!

I am leaving! I am going to...

That poor child.

What are you looking at?

We are looking at...

You people are so boring. I don't want to play with you anymore.

Great Master, he must be possessed by a devil!

Do you have any other ideas?

Seems like I must use the Born-again Technique to cure him.

The Born-again Technique?

Help!

Attention, Celestial Soldiers!

I am the jade emperor!

How dare you demons tie me up?

Great Master, is there any other way

besides the Born-again Technique?

We must grill him for four hours

before we can chase away the evil spirit.

Four more hours?

Madam Jiang, you shouldn't stay here long.

Just leave someone close to him to care for him.

I will stay.

Madam Jiang, Young Master and I are engaged.

I should be the one caring for him.

Please go back and get some rest soon.

Sure. Young Lady, you must remember to untie

Young Master when it's time.

- Madam Jiang. - Madam. Please leave now.

Let's go.

Wu Xia, help me!

Wu Xia! Celestial Soldiers!

Queen Mother of the West, obey my orders!

Queen Mother of the West! I am the jade emperor.

Quick, quick! I am really dying of heat!

It is so hot!

- Why are you laughing? - You did a great act.

Did you enjoy that?

I only did it to make Grandma believe it so we can't get married.

You are so ungrateful.

You came up with that idea.

You must bear with it, no matter how much you suffer.

The servants are all watching out there.

If they find out, you must be grilled another night.

I am about to be cooked.

I will fan you.

It's all right. The only thing Madam Jiang is reluctant

to give up is our well-matched horoscope.

In due course, I will tell Madam Jiang of a problem with my fate.

That should work.

Shui Wu Xia, why didn't you tell her earlier?

Had you done so, would I suffer through this?

Oh, my young master, I can't lie

without hesitation like you.

Whose young master am I?

- Say that again. - In your dreams.

Fine, I'll tell Grandma the truth that I acted.

My young master... mine.

- So naughty. - Fan quickly.

Madam Jiang, your body can't handle it if you keep kneeling.

Life is so unfair to Bai Yu.

A'Chang, what did the divination masters say?

I asked all the divination masters in the city.

After numerous readings and countless divination,

they all say they are destined to be together.

If they miss out on each other, they will regret it all their lives.

But the repeated strange occurrences are really eerie.

Madam Jiang, it is about time.

Should we go check on Young Master?

Maybe the Born-again Technique has really worked.

- I am hot! - All right, all right.

I know it's hot. I am fanning for you now.

Why don't you think of something that makes you happy?

Maybe that can distract you and make you feel better.

What are you looking at?

I am just thinking what you would look like when you get married.

When I get married?

I don't need any ceremony.

I just want to ride with him through great mountains, lakes,

and across fields of flowers.

After that, we will say our vows somewhere we feel most comfortable.

Yu'er, do you feel better?

Yu'er!

- Madam Jiang. - Yu'er.

Madam Jiang, the time is up,

but Young Master hasn't gotten any better.

Yu'er.

Wu Xia, you are here. Wu Xia.

Wu Xia, why do you have grey hair? Wu Xia.

Yu'er, I am your grandma.

Are you confused?

Great Master, is this the Born-again Technique you prescribed?

Pardon my incompetence.

Young Master's condition is very strange and severe.

I can't do anything about it.

Then why do you call yourself "Great Master"?

Fang Yun Cheng! You won't serve me whenever Qi De Long is around.

I will seriously beat you up!

- He is... - I will beat you up!

Yu'er!

Why would this happen to this child?

I suddenly remember, when I was a child,

my family said there was a meteor shower

the day I was born.

Could my fate be changed by the meteors?

That is true.

Meteor showers cause bizarre fates.

Your fate is uncertain.

That is it then.

Maybe...

maybe the meteors secretly changed my fate.

So... Young Master's and my horoscopes

are actually incompatible, and we shouldn't be engaged.

Thus, we encountered so many strange occurrences.

Madam Jiang, if canceling the engagement

means we can save Young Master, I am willing to try.

Grandma,

let me tell you, the jade emperor wants to invite me to the peach banquet.

I can't play with you anymore.

Yu'er.

Yu'er,

I am Grandma.

The most painful thing in the world is none other

than lovers destined to part.

Wu Xia, it is tough on you

to make such a sacrifice.

Don't worry.

Even if we cancel the engagement,

I will make sure your reputation remains intact.

Thank you, Madam Jiang.

Young Master.

- Yu'er. - Grandma.

You are awake.

Grandma, I just had a very long dream.

Yu'er, do you recognize Grandma?

Wu Xia sacrificed so much.

You two have such a tacit understanding.

All right, Grandma, it's fine now.

Okay, all is fine now.

You are fine now.

- Grandma, I am fine. - You really scared me.

All right, Grandma.

I will be a good boy.
