[Fill Your Belly]

We finally found it.

Yeah, this is it.

Let's go.

Stop right there.

Why is there someone else here?

Didn't you see him?

Didn't you see him just now?

Put down the title deed,

and I'll let you go.

Not happening.

I'm walking out loud and proud.

Try and stop me.

You darn scoundrels.

Put it down now!

You nosy neighbors

really don't know when to quit.

All lining up for death, huh?

Before you go anywhere,

see if my broom

agrees!

Get over here.

I dare you.

You old geezer.

You run, I chase.
You're not going anywhere!

Wait!

Trying to run, huh?

You think you can run?

Are you okay?

I'm not!

You dare hit me?

Yeah, you're exactly who I meant to hit!

I... I'll teach you a lesson!

For doing evil!

I'll teach you a lesson!

For doing evil!

For doing evil!

These blows don't miss.

Find somewhere to hide, now!

You stubborn old fool.

Take that! Take that!

Changyu!

Changyu, Changyu, quick!

[Fan]

Mrs. Zhuang.

Please look after Changning for me.

Okay.

Get lost!

Miss Fan.

Listen to me!

I dare any of you!

Quick, come on.

Changyu.

Stop hitting them.

Zhao has beaten them half to death.

If you step in,

they're really not going to make it.

You never learn, do you?

Miss Fan.

Dear Miss Fan.

Please don't get the wrong idea.

We came this time

because we heard you're getting married.

We're here to congratulate you.

Yeah, that's right.

W-We're here to congratulate you.

We're not here to take the title deed.

You call this offering congratulations,
coming armed like this?

My husband was already injured,

and you still ganged up on him!

No, no, no!

-We didn't!
-We really didn't!

We didn't even lay a finger on him.

W-We didn't hurt him.

We didn't hit him.

But you frightened him.

And that's not acceptable either!

Please don't. Don't.

So this is your esteemed husband.

We didn't know
who we were dealing with.

We truly didn't.

Money. Bring out the money.

We really came to
offer our congratulations.

Congratulations.

Please spare us.

That's all we've got.

Please spare us.

Get lost.

If you dare come back
and cause trouble again,

you'll deserve it
even if you get beaten to death!

Let's go.

Leave at once! Get lost!

-Well done!
-Well done! Well done!

Are you okay?

So they did hurt you after all.

I'll go kill them.

They're not to blame.

Then who's to blame?

Me. I'm to blame.

I sat on him.

I was part of it too.

Me too.

And me.

-Alright.
-Come on.

-Here we are. Be careful.
-Excuse me. Make way.

Your uncle is to blame. He's so clumsy.

I was just out buying groceries,

and he hurt him by sitting on him.

Just when he was recovering.

Actually, he survived
thanks to Mr. Zhao's help.

I should be thanking you.

Mrs. Zhao, you guys go rest.

I'll take care of Yan Zheng.

Okay.

I'll go make some dishes
to treat everyone.

Alright.

-Let's go.
-Let's go.

Go outside.

Yan Zheng, give me your hand.

Zhao, come out here.

What for?

What do you think?

But I haven't checked his pulse yet.

Forget about it.

Can't you read the room?

Read what room?

The wound on your back reopened.

There's a large bloodstain.

It needs cleaning.

I-I'll do it myself.

Let me.

You beat those men, didn't you?

This wound of yours—

even if Mr. Zhao sat on it,

it wouldn't have torn open like this.

You must have fought.

With a build like that,

it's obvious that

you're trained in martial arts.

I used to be an armed escort.

I traveled all over,

and just picked up some fighting skills
for self-defense.

I didn't mean to hide it from you.

No wonder.

My father used to be an armed escort too.

He also had many old wounds like yours.

Being an escort

is truly a life-threatening business.

Bear with it.

So you were wounded

by bandits at Huchakou

as well?

Yes.

There's nothing valuable in our home.

If they wanted to smash things, let them.

Why did you step in?

If I hadn't stepped in,

they would have taken this.

[Deed of House Sale]

So you stepped in

for this title deed?

Thanks a lot.

[Pursuit of Jade]

[Episode 4]

When I swung my broom today,

they all fell.

Whoever I touched went down.

No wonder they say,

even a rabbit bites when cornered.

If we hadn't fought,

how would we know we were so capable?

Exactly.

You gentlemen

are the Gods of War of Xigu Lane.

-That's right. Come on.
-Of course.

Cheers.

Drink up.

If you ask me, we're no worse than
that Marquis of Wu'an.

Don't you agree?

Of course.

I agree.

It's just

you're a bit weak, kid.

You got injured just because
I sat on you for a bit.

Changyu, you should nourish him properly.

Uncle,

he's only like this
because his old injuries haven't healed.

Come on, let's have a drink.

Don't drink alcohol. Have tea instead.

Have some tea.

You care so much about your husband?

It's fine. A little wine won't hurt.
It improves circulation.

Zhao!

Why are you making a fuss here?

He just recovered. He can't drink.

You think everyone's as reckless as you?

-Go over there.
-Zhao. Come on, come drink over here.

Let's drink.

Changyu, did Fan Daniu
really file a lawsuit?

Is he really that shameless?

How about we hire a lawyer?

Hiring a lawyer would be too expensive.

What should we do then?

How about talking to Song Yan?

He's the only scholar in our Xigu Lane
after all.

Even officials can't make
a provincial candidate kneel.

He can surely help you
with the lawsuit, Changyu.

Changyu won't ask a bad guy for help.

Changning is right.

We won't ask that ingrate for help.

Right, let's not talk about that ingrate.

Come on. Let's have a drink.

Come on, buddy, drink up.

Let's drink.

Cheers.

This wine is really good.

Don't worry.

I'll help you.

You?

This is everything.

These were used by my mother before.

Make do with them.

I'll write down
the entire response process

and the proper legal phrasing.

Memorize it,

and you'll pass the hearing
without trouble.

[Household Statutes,
Legal Code of Great Yin]

You know how to write?

And you even have knowledge of this?

I've traveled far and seen much,

so I naturally picked it up.

What's wrong?

I used to think

Song Yan was the most formidable person
in the world.

I never imagined you'd be
even more impressive—

not only skilled in martial arts,

but also able to write so well.

Is he the provincial candidate

who refused to help you

even though Mrs. Zhao
shouted herself hoarse?

Why don't you go to court on behalf of me?

According to the Legal Code of Great Yin,

only the head of the household
can appear in court.

I'm not the head of the household,

so I cannot go.

You're really putting me on the spot.

It's almost my turn.

Silence.

Who is the petitioner below?
And what case do you present?

State it now.

You look so imposing.

You look so imposing.

Your Honor,

I am Fan Changyu,

and I'm here for...

My house.

Are your parents alive?

Both are dead.

According to the Legal Code of Great Yin，

if a household has no male heir,

the house goes to the next of kin.

If the older brother dies,
the younger succeeds.

-And if the younger brother dies...
-That's nonsense!

That's nonsense.

For causing a disturbance in court,

you, Changning,

are to be flogged 10 times.

Got it.

One. Two...

You're serious?

Your Honor.

According to the Legal Code of Great Yin,

specifically Article 17
of Extinction of a Household Circle,

when a household is extinct,
circle circle inherit,

and when there's a circle,
a circle makes the choice.

Stop.

Circle...

Extinction of a Household Circle?
What's a "circle"?

I can never remember the characters.

So my mother told me

to draw a circle
for each character I don't know.

I'm used to reading like this.

[Article 17, Extinction of a Household Section,
Household Statutes, Legal Code of Great Yin]

I really can't remember these.

How about this?

Let's find a sack

and kidnap Fan Daniu. What do you think?

What then?

Mr. Wang said

if he's not there on the day of the trial,

the case won't count.

Since it happened once,

it will happen again.

Why not

just kill him

and be done with it?

K-Killing is against the law.

L-Let's not.

Since you can't bear to be that ruthless,

you'll have to suffer through it yourself.

Keep reciting.

Extinction of a Household Section,
Household Statutes, Legal Code of Great Yin.

Article 17:

"In cases of household extinctions…"

Don't be mad.

Your health comes first.

I'll keep reciting.

Never mind.

Just recite this Seven-Step Poem.

Laws are ultimately grounded in reason,

so this might be more persuasive.

Magistrate Cui is a double-ranked
scholar-official, after all.

What Seven-Step Poem?

"Boiling beans by burning the beanstalks.

The beans are sobbing inside the pot.

Both of them were born from the same root.

Why rush to torment each other?"

What does that mean?

It speaks of boiling beans
with beanstalks for fuel,

a metaphor for the deadly strife
between brothers of the same father.

By extension, it condemns Fan Daniu
for abusing his brother's daughter,

an act devoid of kinship and morality.

That's brilliant.

It's like this poem was originally
written for Fan Daniu.

He's not worthy of that.

What does "Fu" mean?

Pot.

"Same root" must mean
having the same father.

What about "torment"?

Is it a cooking method?

It's a metaphor for killing.

Got it.

You really got it?

Boiling beans by burning the beanpoles.

The beans

in the pot cry out:

"we share the same father,

so why kill me first?"

Is it wrong?

I wouldn't say it's wrong.

Your Honor!

Your Honor!

Boiling beans by burning the beanpoles.

The beans in the pot cry out:

"we share the same father,

so why kill me first?"

[Xigu Lane]

Boiling beans by burning the beanpoles.

The beans in the pot cry out.

"we share the same father,

so why kill me first?"

Your Honor!

Your Honor!

Your Honor!

Yan, where are you going?

I'm just tired from studying.

I want to go for a walk.

You still have the metropolitan exam

and the palace exam ahead of you.

Don't get any foolish ideas.

Okay.

Boiling beans...

Mother.

Mother.

I'm so tired.

Did I wake you?

I fell asleep on your hand just now?

You must be sleepy from reading too.

I totally understand.

Why did the lamp go out?

I'll go find a fire starter.

It's so late. Who's knocking at the door?

Song Yan?

Why are you here...

Let me in first.

Don't let my mother see me.

I have...

Have what?

Changyu.

I'm risking the crime of
disobeying my elders

and committing a great offense
to come here

and help you keep this home.

What?

A few days ago,

I thought for a long time

and finally came up with a solution.

I came to tell you

that I'm willing to take you
as my concubine.

Are you out of your mind?

Don't celebrate too early.

I can only try to beg the Magistrate

to grant me a special dispensation.

Hopefully, with my status
as a provincial candidate,

the Magistrate will do me this favor.

This way, you can keep your house

and get the title you've wished for.

Song Yan.

You think just because I'm a butcher girl,

and you're lowering yourself
to take me as a concubine,

I should be thanking you, right?

That's not what I meant.

I just never expected

that for this house,

you would act so rashly

and give yourself to
a crippled refugee from Chongzhou.

A crippled refugee?

Yes.

Song Yan, I'm really curious.

What gives you the right
to look down on him like that?

Even setting aside the fact that he's both
learned and skilled in martial arts,

educated and reasonable,

just in terms of looks alone,

Yan Zheng's 10 times better than you.

Most importantly,

he knows how to appreciate
what others do for him.

He understands my difficulties

and is willing to marry into my family.

Even when he was hurt,

he still stood up for me

and helped me seek justice.

Such devotion—

isn't it 1,000 times better than yours?

You're just unwilling to let go now

and want to earn a good reputation
in the neighborhood,

so you had no choice but to come here.

Song Yan.

You just can't miss out on

any good thing in this world, can you?

It's not like that.

My feelings for you are sincere.

I, Song Yan, hold your hand now,

and swear to Heaven...

I...

Who are you?

Who am I, you ask?

The crippled refugee.

I think of you every night,

and this is how little womanly virtue
you have?

Who are you to me?

Why should I observe any womanly virtue?

You've disregarded all sense of
decorum and morality!

It's simply scandalous!

According to the Legal Code of Great Yin,

those who commit adultery are guilty of
fornication and shall receive 80 lashes!

According to the Legal Code of Great Yin,

your breaking into a private residence
at night counts as burglary,

and death would be deserved.

See for yourself.

This is my husband,

the man lawfully married to
me, Fan Changyu.

You two...

You two are just shameless!

Shameless!

To commit such acts against public morals—

this is simply scandalous!

Why did I kiss him?

If I scared him so much that
he won't marry into my family,

wouldn't I be losing a great deal
for a small gain?

It's all that bastard Song Yan's fault.

Bastard.

Bastard. Bastard. Bastard.

What on earth was that woman thinking?

[Only My Virtue is Fragrant]

All for that pathetic
matrilocal husband?

Mrs. Zhao, where's Mr. Zhao?

He went to town.

Mr. Zhao, you're back.

Mrs. Zhao, I need to go out for a bit.

Changyu.

Mr. Zhao.

This young couple...

Why are they acting like
they're avoiding each other?

Brides get nervous before the wedding.

Even though Changyu has a boyish nature,

she gets shy too.

So you were also shy before marrying me?

Shy?

-I didn't even know who to cry to!
-Look at you.

Yan Zheng.

Yan Zheng, you're awake.

Changyu just went out.

I know.

I need to talk to you about something,
Mr. Zhao.

I want to talk to you too.

Come on.

This way.

Be careful.

Those essays you wrote

can sell for so much money?

Is this a lot?

Twenty taels isn't a lot?

I almost thought the bookshop owner
had lost his mind.

[Wuqi has arrived at
Lin'an Four Seasons Bookshop]

What kind of divine calligraphy
did you write?

I've traveled a lot and seen much.

I just casually wrote some nonsense
to bluff people.

I didn't expect

the bookshop owner to actually buy it.

That's pure profit.

Write a few more. I'll sell them for you.

I was only imitating the masters.

If I write more, I might be exposed.

It's not appropriate.

Right, right. Can't be showy.

But writing once in a while

would make enough for a year's expenses.

This little bit of silver
is enough for a whole year?

For a humble household,

if you budget carefully,

it's even enough for 2 or 3 years.

It seems I miscalculated after all.

About me selling essays,

please help me keep it a secret, Mr. Zhao.

Don't tell anyone.

I understand.

I'm discreet.

I know how to keep my mouth shut.

That little fool

actually got herself a husband
who knows how to make money.

Her hard times are over now.
Truly blessed.

Changyu.

Mrs. Zhao.

What took you so long?

Come and see who's waiting for you.

Mrs. Chen, you're here.

Changyu.

Open it and take a look.

Come on, open it.

This...

For me?

Didn't you say you were only making one
for the groom?

Girls always side with their husbands.

I deliberately saved some fabric

and borrowed some scraps

to make

a set for you too.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

So pretty.

Look.

It's truly pretty.

So pretty.

What is this?

What, you don't like it?

I do.

But you've embroidered
such beautiful flowers—

who's even going to see them?

It's not for you to see.

As long as your husband likes it.

So this is for him to wear?

My silly girl.

You're wearing it for him to see
on your wedding night.

Mrs. Zhao!

Alright, alright.

Boiling beans by burning the beanstalks.

The beans sob secretly in the pot.

We share the same father.

Why rush to torment each other?

Boiling beans by burning the beanstalks.

The beans weep loudly in the pot.

Oh no.

-Boiling beans by burning the beanstalks.
-I shouldn't have hidden it under the bed.

The beans weep loudly in the pot.

We share the same father.

Why rush to torment each other?

Why are you here?

Didn't you ask me to come and
try on the wedding suit yesterday?

But our wedding outfits

are with Mrs. Zhao.

Why is she sitting on the bed?

Why is he sitting next to me?

Let's go try them on together then.

Sure.

Let's go together.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Why isn't he moving?

Did he see it?

Where's the box? Why can't I feel it?

-Have you finished reciting it?
-Are you done with your business?

R-Reciting?

I...

Where was I?

We share the same father...

Both of them were born from the same root.

I'll get going then.

She probably didn't see it.

I'll give it to her another day.

He probably didn't see it.

He definitely didn't see it.
Didn't see it, didn't see it.

So embarrassing.

What should I do?

[Happiness]

[Fill Your Belly]

[Happiness]

It's so lively.

Today is Changyu's big day.

Make sure you get the rituals right.

Don't worry. I know you're an expert.

But today, you're the host.

Just relax and drink the wedding tea.
I've got this.

Are you saying that matrilocal husband
is ugly,

and he's a cripple?

If he's not ugly or crippled,

who would choose to be
a matrilocal husband nowadays?

Granny Kang, it's a joyful day.

Watch your tongue.

She's got so much to say.

Why is she here too?

She's a distant relative of
the Fan family. Can't be helped.

The Fan family's son-in-law is coming out!

What did I tell you?

Look, if he's not missing any limbs,

why would he be a matrilocal husband?

I, Song Yan,

am here specifically
to offer my congratulations.

What are you doing here again?

Changyu.

I'll give you one more chance.

If you are willing to be my concubine,

I'll keep my vow and take you in
as a concubine.

As a concubine?

That is truly disgusting.

Aren't you just trying to disgust Changyu
on purpose?

Exactly. Aren't you just trying to
disgust Changyu?

This is the token of love Changyu gave me.

But now that
she's become only like a sister to me,

it naturally should be passed on to
this matrilocal husband.

I was only 6
when I gave you that clay doll.

How does that count as a token of love?

You still remember things from
when you were 6.

It shows you've never let go of this
in your heart.

Don't make me slap you.

My childhood sweetheart is getting married.
How can I not bring a gift?

Fan family's matrilocal husband.

Will you accept this gift or not?

♪ In the east wind,
flowers bloom at night ♪

♪ Blowing down the stars like rain ♪

♪ Fine horses and carved carriages
fill the fragrant streets ♪

♪ The phoenix flute resounds ♪

♪ The jade pot light revolves ♪

♪ A night of fish-and-dragon dances ♪

♪ In gold-thread dress,
with moth or willow ornaments ♪

Those looks.

No wonder Changyu said
she wasn't losing out.

Who was the blind one earlier,

making up stories about the groom,

saying he was some ugly cripple?

Wasn't it you, Granny Kang?

♪ Giggling, she melts into the throng
with trails of scents ♪

With my years of matchmaking experience,

with those looks,
not only is Song Yan far behind,

in our entire Lin'an Town—

no, in the whole Qingping County—
you can't find another.

I'm asking you. Will you take it or not?

I...

Will.

♪ I find her there ♪

We'll take it.

Wait, what are you taking?

I was asking you to take my token,

not to take each other's hands.

One shouldn't be too kind.

Aside from keeping this ingrate,

you didn't keep anything else
that bites, did you?

I've raised many livestock.

The only one that bites the hand
that feeds it

is this one.

Thank you,

for having eyes but failing to
recognize a true gem.

Fan Changyu.

I'll assume you're blinded by lust
and confused for a moment.

I won't hold it against you.

I'll ask you one last time.

Are you willing to...

You...

Let's go.

Very well.

Listen!

You will regret this one day!

You all...

Fan Changyu, Yan Zheng,

don't get too smug!

When I place first in the imperial exams,

I'll make you pay!

Bow to the parents.

Bow!

[Memorial Tablet of Meng Lihua]
[Memorial Tablet of Fan Erniu]

Share the sacrificial meat.

Share weal and woe from now on,

and never leave each other.

Have a drink together.

Perform the gargling ritual.

Treat each other with respect.

Drink the nuptial wine.

As the sweet wine blends,

may the couple live in harmony forever.

-Wonderful!
-Excellent!

-Wonderful!
-Excellent!

Wonderful!

Bride and broom bow to each other,

and the ceremony is completed.

Wonderful!

-Great!
-Excellent!

The matrilocal husband must change
his surname according to tradition.

No need.

My husband doesn't need to
change his surname.

He'll keep the name Yan Zheng.

It sounds quite nice.

If you have children,

they must take the mother's surname.

Well, no need for that either.

We'll have a couple of children

and use both surnames.

Keep reading.

The most important part:

the matrilocal husband must remember
that women are superior to men.

The wife is the head of the household,

-and you must follow your wife in everything...
-No need.

To ensure marital harmony!

-Great!
-No, no, no need.

From now on,

I will obey you in everything

without fail, darling.

In the future,

we will discuss everything

and make decisions together.

Okay.

What are you waiting for?

To the bridal chamber!

Come on.

Yan Zheng.

Go on, Yan Zheng.

The bride is here to propose a toast.

Thank you.

Thank you, everyone.

Congratulations.

The bride is here to propose a toast.

Changyu, congratulations.

Everyone worked hard today.

Please enjoy the food and drinks.

-To the bride.
-Come on.

Come on.

[Wound Healing Elixir]

Everyone, enjoy yourselves.

Changyu.

Changyu.

Mr. Wang?

Forgive me.

I'm late.

What took you so long?

Changyu.

I came late.
I'll have a penalty drink first.

Come on.

Changyu.

These days,

you've been through a lot.

I've seen it all.

Your father and I were old friends.

From now on,

treat me as half a relative.

And Zhao can be the other half.

Changyu, I only wish you

a life that gets sweeter by the day,

a path that grows ever wider,

marital harmony,

and a long life of love together.

Well said!

Thank you, Mr. Wang.

Come on. Cheers.

Thank you all for today.

Don't mention it.

Look. How beautiful.

Changyu, you've had a long day.

Go back and rest early.

Okay.

Get home safe.

Congratulations, Changyu.

-How pretty.
-Rest early.

Rest early.

What are you doing?

I'm going to wash the dishes.

Hold on.

You don't need to wash them.

[Intimacy Instruction Drawings]

I won't need this.

He's injured so badly. We won't need this.

You'll need it sooner or later.

Come on, go back to the bridal chamber.

I still need to help you with the dishes.

No need. Hurry up and go.

Don't stand here in my way. Hurry.

Changyu! Changyu!

Hurry up and go upstairs.

Every moment of the wedding night
is precious.

Alright, alright.

Let's go, let's go.

Wait.

I'm sorry.

I'm used to living alone.

I keep forgetting
there's a man in the house.
