1
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:51,400
Miss.
2
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:53,680
Tong'er.
3
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,880
Why are you here?
4
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,640
The person who brought me here
5
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,920
told me that Duke Su asked me
to take care of you here.
6
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,160
How are you doing, miss?
7
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:05,920
Did Duke Su make things difficult for you?
8
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,320
I'm fine. All is well.
9
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,199
Miss, when I arrived just now,
10
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,800
I heard someone outside saying
11
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,000
that the Jiang family is going
to welcome Ms. Jiang Li.
12
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,400
Does it mean that we can go home?
13
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,280
Tong'er.
14
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,080
There's something I have to tell you.
15
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:23,720
I can't do anything
16
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,240
against those who killed Jiang Li now.
17
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,600
I wonder if Li'er would resent me
18
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,160
if she knew.
19
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,560
She wouldn't.
20
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,040
Those who killed her ladyship
21
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,920
are the Jiang family members
who abandoned her.
22
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,200
Returning to the Jiang family
is like going into a tiger's den.
23
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,760
If they find out
I'm pretending to be Jiang Li,
24
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,720
both of us might be killed.
25
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,160
Tong'er.
26
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,560
You've suffered enough
at Zhennv Hall for so many years.
27
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,720
Now, you have the chance
28
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,400
not to go with me.
29
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,400
The world is big.
You can choose your own path.
30
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,640
You don't have to risk your life
to go back with me.
31
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:06,840
Tong'er.
32
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,080
Miss.
33
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,520
If Madam Ye didn't take me in
as her ladyship's maid,
34
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,200
I would've been sold to a brothel.
35
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,640
I swore that I would protect
her ladyship with my life.
36
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,960
But I couldn't keep my promise.
37
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,720
If I don't do anything for her,
38
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,040
I'll be ashamed to face her
in the afterlife.
39
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,720
As long as we can clear
her ladyship's name,
40
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,440
you'll be my master from now on.
41
00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:29,760
I will serve you forever.
42
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,040
I'll do anything.
43
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:39,720
All right.
44
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,560
From now on, we'll go through
thick and thin together.
45
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,600
Madam.
46
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,200
Are you really going
to take that girl back?
47
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:58,920
It wasn't easy to send her away.
48
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,440
If you bring her back...
49
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,520
What do you know?
50
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,640
Although His Majesty
didn't say it outright,
51
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,760
to my husband,
52
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,680
it's like an imperial decree.
53
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,880
We have to bring Jiang Li back.
54
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,400
It's fine to bring her back.
55
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:17,320
But what was Duke Su thinking?
56
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:19,800
Why welcome her with the Duke Mansion's
ceremonial weapons?
57
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,560
Won't that give her even more prestige?
58
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,240
These clothes are made
with high-quality fabric.
59
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,360
When you pick up Jiang Li tomorrow,
60
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:27,360
bring these to her.
61
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:28,520
At this point,
62
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,480
why must we still give her
such high-quality clothes?
63
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,600
This would flatter her more.
64
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,720
It won't be easy
to control her in the future.
65
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,920
With the carriages of the Jiang family
66
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,720
and the Duke Mansion's ceremonial weapons,
67
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,680
she'll live in a bubble of pride.
68
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,080
We need to make the bubble bigger
69
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,400
until it pops.
70
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,160
There's something
that I'm a bit concerned about.
71
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,520
It may just be a coincidence
that Duke Su is involved in this.
72
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,520
But Mrs. Liu is not a fool.
73
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,240
It's not a coincidence
74
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,200
that the incident at Zhennv Hall
75
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:07,360
made its way into the imperial court
through the Vice Minister of Revenue.
76
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:09,240
The only one who knew
77
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,040
about Mrs. Liu
and Ye Zhenzhen's relationship
78
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,560
and could use that
to make this happen is Jiang Li.
79
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,160
All these years,
80
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:21,080
Old Madam
has never forgotten about that girl.
81
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,560
She keeps thinking and talking about her.
82
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,640
If she's actually that scheming,
83
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,440
and with Old Madam Jiang doting on her,
84
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:33,200
it'll be
85
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:34,880
hard for us.
86
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,360
I'll pay attention to that.
87
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,520
DUKE SU'S MANSION
88
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,280
Ms. Sun.
89
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,640
You are...
90
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,520
Jiang Li.
91
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,320
Are you Jiang Li?
92
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,880
Perhaps you can't recognize me
93
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,440
because it has been so many years.
94
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,720
That's not true.
I just haven't seen you in a long time.
95
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,600
Besides, I heard that the Chief
of Zhennv Hall was taken away.
96
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,720
I'm also worried that my eyes
are bleary with age.
97
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,280
So I have to look more carefully.
98
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:37,080
Here.
99
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,080
This is the hairpin
that my mother left for me.
100
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,200
Look at it carefully, Ms. Sun.
101
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,520
It seems like not only
are Ms. Sun's eyes bleary,
102
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,800
she also has a poor memory.
103
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:55,800
If Mother and Father
don't want me to go home,
104
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,680
forget it.
105
00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,360
My lady, please wait.
106
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:00,920
I've spoken out of line.
107
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,200
I should slap my mouth.
108
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,920
It's just that
I haven't seen you in a long time.
109
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,920
Please forgive me, my lady.
110
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,120
Madam Ji
111
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:09,560
misses you so much
112
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,640
since you've been
at Zhennv Hall for so long.
113
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,520
So she kept urging his lordship
114
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,000
to bring you home.
115
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,960
Finally, not long ago,
116
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:17,920
his lordship agreed.
117
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,360
And Madam Ji immediately
asked people to clean your room
118
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,800
and sent me
119
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,680
to pick you up personally.
120
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,600
If Madam Ji sees
121
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,560
how beautiful you've become,
122
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,400
she'll be so happy.
123
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,080
I'm really grateful to Mother.
124
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,120
I miss her a lot all these years
125
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,240
when I was at Zhennv Hall too.
126
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,880
I always felt regretful
that I couldn't stay by her side
127
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,960
to take care of her.
128
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:42,640
But this is great.
129
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,560
I'm finally going home.
130
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,480
I'll surely be filial to her
131
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,240
just like how much she favors me.
132
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:50,760
That's great.
133
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:52,760
Bring it forward.
134
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:55,640
Look.
135
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,360
Madam Ji
136
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:58,800
especially asked me
137
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,760
to buy these new clothes for you.
138
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,040
She's afraid you won't be
comfortable in your old clothes.
139
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,200
Look.
140
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,000
They're all made from high-quality fabric.
141
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,240
I think you should change into them now,
142
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,080
so that you'll look grand when you go home
143
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,080
and show your status.
144
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:15,880
Thank you, Ms. Sun.
145
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,320
Tong'er.
146
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,000
Here you go.
147
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,680
My lady, after you.
148
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:50,640
Like you said,
149
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Old Madam dotes on Jiang Li the most.
150
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,680
So Ji Shuran knows very well
151
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,840
that Old Madam
is the only one we can rely on.
152
00:08:58,320 --> 00:08:59,840
I'm sure she won't let us
153
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:01,280
get close to Old Madam easily.
154
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,120
Tong'er.
155
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,360
Do you know what taboos Old Madam has?
156
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,720
I remember Old Master Jiang
157
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,720
once took a woman
from a brothel as his concubine.
158
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,120
That woman was haughty.
159
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,520
She loved luxurious dresses
160
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:15,840
and brocade was her favorite.
161
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,840
That kind of fabric
is as expensive as gold.
162
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,760
She spent a lot of money,
163
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,000
so Old Madam hated her so much.
164
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,760
MAKE WAY
165
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,160
MR. QIN'S FATHER
166
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,600
Duke Su, you arrested my son
167
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,680
without any valid reason.
168
00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:50,760
You really have no respect for me,
169
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,840
a senior statesman
who has served two reigns.
170
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,000
Trafficking salt is like stealing
from the National Treasury.
171
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,080
I'm investigating
under His Majesty's order.
172
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,840
If he's guilty,
173
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,760
His Majesty will make the final decision.
174
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,000
If he's not guilty,
175
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,360
we can prove once and for all
that he's innocent.
176
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,520
It's too early to say he was arrested
177
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,040
for no valid reason,
178
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,560
Duke Qin.
179
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,240
I'll give you
a few more days then, Duke Su.
180
00:10:19,560 --> 00:10:23,560
If you can't find any evidence
and still refuse to release him,
181
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,360
I'll seek justice for my son even if
I need to sacrifice the life I lived
182
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,440
doing meritorious deeds
serving two reigns.
183
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,520
I believe
184
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,840
that someone as filial as His Majesty
185
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,200
will understand
the love I have for my son.
186
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:49,560
I won't see you off.
187
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,560
Duke Qin's son still refuses to confess.
188
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,720
Should we torture him?
189
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,720
Mr. Qin knows that his father
will back him up.
190
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,240
Of course he won't confess.
191
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,920
Are you worried I won't get
a confession with my gentle techniques
192
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,520
or that his father
193
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:10,840
will report this to His Majesty?
194
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,680
In our job,
195
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,360
are we afraid of trouble?
196
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:15,960
So reckless.
197
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,560
It is Ms. Jiang Li's fault
for tricking us.
198
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,280
At first, I thought that
199
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,360
we could find the mastermind through her.
200
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,600
But now, we are stuck.
201
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,520
This is no fun.
202
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,080
BENEFITTING THE PEOPLE
203
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,080
MAKE WAY
204
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,640
It seems like she's being taken home.
205
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,920
The Duke Mansion's
ceremonial weapons are indeed grand.
206
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:48,920
MAKE WAY
207
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,040
My lord,
208
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,160
Chancellor Jiang is bringing his daughter
back from the Duke Mansion.
209
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,400
You even gave her
half of your ceremonial weapons.
210
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,120
We haven't found any evidence
but we're watching from here,
211
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,280
is that appropriate?
212
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,600
Look, I didn't expect flowers
to bloom so early this year.
213
00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:12,520
Yes.
214
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:14,880
Are you going to take them all?
215
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,040
-Don't worry. I have money.
-Let's check out another store.
216
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,480
EARNEST PEOPLE, PROSPEROUS LAND
217
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:45,760
My lord.
218
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,680
Ms. Jiang Li is quite interesting.
219
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,960
She tricked us
in order to return to the Jiang family.
220
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,800
Now that
she's in the Jiang family's carriage,
221
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:53,600
she forgot all about you.
222
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,400
What does this mean?
223
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,120
Five canes.
224
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,640
Are you going to flog me again?
225
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,360
If she's the real Jiang Li,
226
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,240
consider that half of my
ceremonial weapons as a gift for her.
227
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,240
Are you saying that...
228
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,840
Her identity is suspicious.
229
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,200
And it involves an important official.
230
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,720
I need to be thorough.
231
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,000
Tell me.
232
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,880
Why would a troublesome person
233
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,680
want to enter
234
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,880
a troublesome place?
235
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,600
I don't believe in coincidence,
236
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:32,680
regardless of looks
237
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,480
or other things.
238
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:36,240
But she's back in the Jiang family now,
239
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,360
it'll be even harder
to interrogate her after this.
240
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,720
We don't have to interrogate her.
241
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,480
It's better to let her go home
and see what she's going to do.
242
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,680
-Watch her closely.
-Yes.
243
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,560
What are you doing, dear?
244
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,080
Mother reminded me yesterday.
245
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:14,880
I haven't seen her for ten years.
246
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,200
I should prepare a welcome gift for her.
247
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,040
Now, Duke Su is even sending her back
248
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,520
with his ceremonial weapons.
249
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,680
If I don't prepare well,
250
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,920
I'll become a joke to people in this city.
251
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,840
Dear, this is a gift from His Majesty.
252
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:33,960
What do you think?
253
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,360
You love precious jade.
254
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,120
But Li'er is just a kid.
She won't know much about it.
255
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,680
What about this calligraphy and painting?
256
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,280
It's from a famous artist,
257
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,400
rare and precious.
258
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:53,840
Have you forgotten?
259
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,280
Li'er grew up at Zhennv Hall
260
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:56,720
and hasn't been to school much.
261
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,640
She'll be sad
if you give her gifts like these.
262
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,600
Take a rest.
263
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,480
I've overlooked that.
264
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,520
I've already made arrangements.
265
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,680
I already asked someone
to bring her some clothes
266
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,600
made out of high-quality fabric.
267
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,800
Ruoyao likes them,
but I didn't even give them to her.
268
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,120
Li'er will come back beautifully
269
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,360
and respectably.
270
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,600
No one would dare say she's ill-treated
by the Jiang family.
271
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,240
Thank you, dear.
272
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:48,520
I'll get changed first.
273
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:12,840
Why isn't she here yet?
274
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:13,800
Right.
275
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,040
Yes. It has been so many years.
276
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,760
I wonder how Ms. Jiang looks.
277
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,600
How pretty can a wild girl
who lived in the mountains
278
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:23,800
for so long be?
279
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,560
-That's right.
-Yes.
280
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,000
Welcome Ms. Jiang back
from self-cultivation!
281
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:30,840
She's here.
282
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:31,880
MAKE WAY
283
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,200
Start the music!
284
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,160
Is she Ms. Jiang?
285
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,720
See? I knew it.
286
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,400
Ms. Jiang looks so tacky.
287
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:00,920
-That's right.
-Yes.
288
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,280
The Jiang family is wealthy.
289
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,280
Is this how they treat their own daughter?
290
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:46,760
Is she Li'er?
291
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,040
JIANG RESIDENCE
292
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:49,960
Li'er.
293
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:51,960
YOUNG TONG'ER
294
00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:02,360
As long as you apologize to your mother,
295
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,440
you won't have to go
to the mountain to repent.
296
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,160
I didn't do anything wrong.
297
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:33,680
Greetings, Father, Mother.
298
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:43,760
Rise.
299
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,400
Li'er.
300
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,400
Why are you wearing clothes
from Zhennv Hall?
301
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,560
Didn't you bring new clothes to Li'er?
302
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:03,680
Ms. Sun.
303
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,320
Didn't I ask you
to bring new clothes over?
304
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,880
I brought the clothes very early
to Ms. Jiang.
305
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:11,960
But when she heard
that they were from you, she...
306
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,680
Maybe she didn't like them.
307
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,680
Li'er, those clothes are a gift
from your mother.
308
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,600
Why didn't you wear them?
309
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:24,240
Maybe Li'er doesn't like the clothes
310
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:25,800
that I sent.
311
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:27,800
She can go shopping tomorrow
312
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,360
and choose some new clothes herself.
313
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:31,360
Mother.
314
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,480
The clothes you gave me
315
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,120
are made out of high-quality brocade.
316
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,760
I love them and I'm grateful.
317
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:42,160
But...
318
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,880
But what?
319
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,440
But maybe it has been too long.
320
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,160
Mother has never visited me
at Zhennv Hall,
321
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,720
so she doesn't know my size.
322
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,360
I couldn't fit
into any of the clothes she gave me.
323
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,560
How could you be so careless?
324
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,840
My lord, it's all my fault.
325
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,400
Madam Ji did ask me to find out
326
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,200
Ms. Jiang's size and measurements.
327
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,800
But I overlooked it.
328
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,040
Please punish me.
329
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,320
Don't be mad anymore, dear.
330
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,360
Maybe I'm too happy
331
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,160
that I've forgotten to supervise it.
332
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,840
Li'er, let's come in first.
333
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,160
Don't make your uncles and aunts
wait long.
334
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,080
Li'er, greet your uncles and aunts.
335
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,120
Second Uncle.
336
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:56,640
Aunt Lu.
337
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,920
Your second uncle, Jiang Yuanping,
338
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:04,920
is tall
339
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,120
and looks kind.
340
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,280
He's Jiang Yuanbai's legitimate brother.
341
00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:10,600
His wife, Madam Lu, is the daughter
of the Gentleman for Rendering Service.
342
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,080
Jiang Yuanping is famous
for doting on his wife.
343
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,000
Back then, Madam Lu caught a cold
during postnatal care,
344
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,400
resulting in chronic headaches.
345
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,040
He feels really guilty about it.
346
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,760
It's good that you are back.
347
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,600
I don't know what you like.
348
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,840
Please take
this jade bead rosary as a gift.
349
00:21:31,120 --> 00:21:32,240
Thank you, Aunt Lu.
350
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:33,800
Aunt Lu,
351
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,000
have your headaches gotten better?
352
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,280
My headache is not that severe anymore.
353
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:43,520
Your second uncle
got many physicians to treat me.
354
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,080
I don't get much headache now.
355
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,840
How kind of you to worry about me.
356
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,120
Li'er has always been very sensible.
357
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,000
I always held her when she was young
and she never cried or threw a fit.
358
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,320
Now, she's already a young lady.
359
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,680
Third Uncle, Aunt Yang.
360
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,760
I've prepared
a pair of pearl earrings for you.
361
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,760
Jiang Yuanxing, the third concubine's son.
362
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:10,760
He has big eyes.
363
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:12,000
As the third concubine's son,
364
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,360
he's not valued by the Jiang family.
365
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:14,640
He loves fishing.
366
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,600
Madam Yang is the Court Gentleman of
Manifest Virtue's illegitimate daughter.
367
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,880
If it wasn't because she was getting old,
368
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,120
she wouldn't marry a teacher
like Jiang Yuanxing.
369
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,440
Do you like them?
370
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,440
Thank you, Aunt Yang.
371
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,480
Third Uncle, do you still go fishing?
372
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,280
When I usually went out to chop firewood,
373
00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:39,280
I saw many lively fishes
in the river of Qingcheng Mountain.
374
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:40,760
The view was amazing too.
375
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,000
I haven't gone fishing in a long time.
376
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,440
Li'er is such a thoughtful child.
377
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:48,560
You're right.
378
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,960
She still thinks about us
after so many years.
379
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,080
Yuanbai, since all of us are here today,
380
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,160
let's have a reunion dinner tonight.
381
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,080
We can invite Old Madam too.
382
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,280
Sure.
383
00:22:58,360 --> 00:22:59,840
Li'er has just returned.
384
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:01,960
I'm sure she's tired from her journey.
385
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,200
We can have dinner tomorrow.
386
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,240
Please be understanding.
387
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:07,960
Don't make Li'er too tired.
388
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,000
That's good too.
389
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,360
Am I right, Li'er?
390
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:20,520
As you wish, Mother.
391
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,520
Li'er has really grown up.
392
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,120
You've become more sensible now.
393
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,080
You are so considerate, dear.
394
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:30,800
Li'er.
395
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,560
Let your mother take you
to the rear courtyard to take some rest.
396
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:36,480
All right.
397
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,320
Let's go.
398
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,640
How tiring can it be
399
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,360
to have a reunion dinner?
400
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,560
Take a good rest, Li'er.
401
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,240
If you need anything,
you can always come to me.
402
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:12,800
Li'er.
403
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:14,320
What's wrong?
404
00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:17,760
I haven't been back in a long time.
405
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,400
Our residence has changed drastically.
406
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,040
I don't quite remember my way.
407
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,760
We've renovated the front
and rear yards these past years.
408
00:24:30,120 --> 00:24:32,520
Come. Let me show you around.
409
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,680
Do you still remember this place?
410
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:46,760
It has changed.
411
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:48,880
Father.
412
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,000
Look.
413
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:53,120
I remember
414
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,040
that I cried in fear
on that decorative rock.
415
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,560
I want my mother!
416
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,920
Mother!
417
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:08,160
Li'er.
418
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:09,880
Don't be afraid.
419
00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:11,600
I'm here to save you.
420
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:13,280
Later on,
421
00:25:13,360 --> 00:25:15,000
you said something
422
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,560
that gave me the courage
to jump down from there.
423
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,680
What did I say?
424
00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:21,760
I forgot.
425
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,120
Back then, you said...
426
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,480
Don't worry.
427
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,600
I will never let you get hurt.
428
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,720
I never thought
that you would remember so many things
429
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,280
from your childhood clearly.
430
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:46,920
I remember
431
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:49,920
that our family used to love
432
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,600
sitting there to watch the moon together.
433
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,520
Grandmother loved sitting over there
to watch a performance.
434
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,240
Yes.
435
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,040
By the way, how's Grandmother?
436
00:26:02,120 --> 00:26:03,800
She doted on me the most.
437
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,320
I'm unfilial.
438
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,480
I haven't been able
to take care of you and Grandmother.
439
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,680
Your grandmother has always doted on you.
440
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,600
She won't blame you.
441
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,000
It was my fault for making a mistake.
442
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,240
If you hadn't sent me to Zhennv Hall,
443
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,920
I wouldn't have repented and changed.
444
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,080
Let bygones be bygones.
445
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,120
You're all grown up now.
446
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,760
We need to look forward.
447
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,000
Is Grandmother still mad at me?
448
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,280
Old Madam is a kind lady.
449
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:37,400
Why would she blame you?
450
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,680
If you want to pay her a visit,
just tell us.
451
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,760
Don't torture yourself
by talking about the past.
452
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,280
You're breaking my heart
453
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:47,200
by saying those words.
454
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,400
At first, I wanted to let you rest
because I worried
455
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,200
that you would be tired from your journey.
456
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,040
Since you can't wait to see her,
457
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:55,760
I'll go with you.
458
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,080
Mother, Li'er has returned.
459
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,680
OLD MADAM
460
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,440
Is Li'er really back?
461
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,520
Old Madam was very kind to her ladyship.
462
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:27,800
Her ladyship got cold easily.
463
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,680
She was down
with fever and cough during winter.
464
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:32,080
When Old Madam found out,
465
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,040
she'd personally cook pear soup
for her ladyship.
466
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:38,840
Greetings, Grandmother.
467
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,120
Let me take a good look at you.
468
00:27:58,840 --> 00:27:59,840
Is she really Li'er?
469
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,000
Yes, Mother.
470
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,760
My grandchild.
471
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,960
It has been hard on you.
472
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,080
I've become older and less mobile now.
473
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:13,680
I could only send you some gifts
474
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,040
on occasions.
475
00:28:16,120 --> 00:28:18,320
But you only had Tong'er with you.
476
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,120
And she's still a child.
477
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,080
I wondered if she had taken good care
478
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,200
of those things I sent you.
479
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,640
If Old Madam really cared about Jiang Li,
480
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,720
did she receive anything
481
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,840
from the Old Madam in the past ten years?
482
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:37,720
We can't be sure.
483
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,040
Maybe she sent them.
484
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:41,880
But someone blocked them.
485
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:44,520
I've been living well,
486
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:46,920
thanks to your care.
487
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:48,720
I regret not being able
488
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,680
to see you and take care of you
489
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,280
by your side.
490
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:54,760
Since you are home now,
491
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,760
let's not talk about it anymore.
492
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,880
If you need anything in the future
493
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,120
or if you want to eat anything,
494
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,480
you can come to me.
495
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:08,680
Thank you, Grandmother.
496
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:11,960
Ms. Zhang.
497
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,920
Go and cook some pear soup for Li'er.
498
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,760
I remember she loved it
when she was young.
499
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:17,680
Yes.
500
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,080
Li'er, come.
501
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,040
Come here.
502
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,520
Come, sit down.
503
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,480
Put this on.
504
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,280
No, Grandmother.
505
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,160
This is too valuable.
506
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,080
Take it.
507
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:45,560
-Here.
-Grandmother.
508
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,840
I'll make up
509
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,280
for what I've owed you for ten years.
510
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,000
Thank you, Grandmother.
511
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,080
You have lovely hands
512
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,840
and a beautiful face.
513
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,800
She didn't look like this in the past.
514
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,720
She looks so different now.
515
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:08,880
Young Master.
516
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,880
Grandmother, I want to play.
517
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,680
Little Bingji.
518
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:13,600
He is...
519
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,040
You're the bad girl
520
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,800
who tried to kill my mother and brother.
521
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,680
-I'll hit you! You're a bad girl!
-Bingji!
522
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:21,600
-Bad girl!
-Bingji.
523
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,000
Bingji, shut up.
524
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,400
-Well...
-Bingji.
525
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:26,320
Why did you bring Bingji here?
526
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,800
After waking up from his nap,
527
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,720
he wanted to find his mother.
528
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,880
I couldn't stop him.
529
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,040
When have you given birth
to such a cute young boy, Mother?
530
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,680
You are so beautiful, my sister.
531
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:46,320
Mother.
532
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,040
I'm not your brother.
533
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:51,080
You are a murderer.
534
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,160
You killed my brother.
535
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,880
-Nonsense, Bingji.
-Bingji, what nonsense is that?
536
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,080
I don't want
the beautiful sister to be here.
537
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,120
Grandmother, I don't want her here!
538
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,040
Get up.
539
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,160
-I don't want her here.
-Get up.
540
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,520
Grandmother, I don't want her here!
541
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,600
Grandmother, I don't want
the beautiful sister here.
542
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,040
Bingji.
543
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,200
Get up.
544
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,120
He's such a young kid.
545
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:15,840
-He wouldn't say this
-What's going on?
546
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:16,960
unless someone taught him.
547
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:18,920
You're right, Madam.
548
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,240
I've been so busy
549
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:21,920
preparing Li'er's return
550
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,720
that I've overlooked Bingji's education.
551
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:26,640
It's my fault.
552
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,040
Maybe Young Master
553
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,480
heard the servants gossiping about it.
554
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:31,480
Old Madam.
555
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,240
Please punish me.
556
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:35,560
Bingji is still young.
557
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,720
We just have to teach him
better after this.
558
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,040
Today is Li'er's return.
559
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:42,720
Let's not punish the servants.
560
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:47,720
Li'er is back.
561
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,680
She came back grandly outside.
562
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:51,960
But in the family, it's a mess.
563
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,360
This is unacceptable.
564
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,320
I might sound harsh,
565
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,280
but I'm not blaming the child.
566
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,640
I just wanted to remind you
567
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,040
that be it adults or kids,
568
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,280
they must be educated carefully
so that they won't develop bad habits.
569
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:07,760
That's the whole point
570
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,880
of this family reunion.
571
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:11,920
You're right, Mother.
572
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,360
Forget it. You may go.
573
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,840
All right. We'll let you rest.
574
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,440
Ms. Sun, take Li'er back
to her room to rest first.
575
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:25,840
Yes, my lord.
576
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,120
This is your courtyard, Ms. Jiang Li.
577
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,040
FANGFEI COURTYARD
578
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:55,720
"Fangfei Courtyard."
579
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,480
This is really fate.
580
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,680
This is the courtyard
where you stayed before.
581
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:10,960
You still remember it, right?
582
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:13,400
But it looks
583
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,520
a little bit rundown now.
584
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,080
We didn't dare to touch it
585
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,880
because you weren't here.
586
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,360
I think it'll look nice
once it's cleaned up.
587
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,280
Your return is too sudden.
588
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,280
There were too many things
to do in a short time.
589
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,280
The servants didn't have enough time
to clean the place too.
590
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:31,280
I think
591
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,920
we'll have to trouble you
592
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:35,760
to clean up the place yourself.
593
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:37,880
Then it'll actually be
594
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,120
to your liking, right?
595
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,000
Here. Take a look.
596
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,360
What do you think? Do you like it?
597
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,680
If you don't,
598
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:57,960
I'll tell Madam Ji at once,
599
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,240
so she can move you to a bigger courtyard.
600
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,800
Thank you, Ms. Sun.
601
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,360
Although the yard is run-down and messy,
602
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,360
it'll be nice once it's all cleaned up.
603
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,040
I'll get going then.
604
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,120
All right.
605
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:17,800
My lady.
606
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,000
We just arrived
and this is the courtyard they gave us.
607
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,120
You can report this to his lordship
608
00:34:22,199 --> 00:34:24,320
to punish Ms. Sun
for her dereliction of duty.
609
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,199
If we don't like it,
we can move to another courtyard.
610
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,880
If we report her but don't want to move,
611
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:38,800
isn't that unreasonable?
612
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,440
What if we move to another courtyard?
613
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,239
Then it'll confirm that we're picky
614
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:44,840
as soon as we got home.
615
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,360
No wonder.
616
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,920
Ji Shuran must have asked someone
to take Jiang Bingji there too.
617
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,000
I was curious why she was so kind
to let you meet Old Madam.
618
00:34:53,679 --> 00:34:54,960
So it was a part of her plan.
619
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,400
Old Madam is sincere towards Jiang Li.
620
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,520
But she didn't stand up for you just now.
621
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:07,240
This courtyard is just
an initial show of power.
622
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,160
More will be coming.
623
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,440
I always fell sick when I was young.
624
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,840
Madam Ye and her ladyship
took care of me back then.
625
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:32,760
They refused to let me do anything
626
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:34,600
until I recovered.
627
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,800
Her ladyship and Madam Ye
were great people.
628
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:44,840
But after Madam Ye passed away,
629
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,200
they tortured her ladyship so much.
630
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,160
The Jiang family
can never repay her ladyship
631
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,760
what they owe.
632
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,040
Tong'er.
633
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:17,200
I'll take back everything
that belongs to Jiang Li.
634
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:27,520
SIMPLE AND ELEGANT
635
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:28,440
Madam Ji.
636
00:36:29,240 --> 00:36:31,360
I already brought Jiang Li
to Fangfei Courtyard.
637
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,000
Is there anything that seems strange?
638
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:35,680
Ever since we took her back
639
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,200
from the Duke Mansion,
640
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:38,520
she started scheming against us.
641
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,120
All sorts of lying, acting pitiful,
and pretending to be good.
642
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,960
If you didn't make plans beforehand,
643
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,160
we would've lost this first round.
644
00:36:47,240 --> 00:36:48,600
She's intelligent.
645
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,480
When Old Madam asked her
if she received her gifts,
646
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,400
she didn't reveal the truth.
647
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,840
She's good at bidding her time.
648
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:02,640
What's wrong?
649
00:37:02,720 --> 00:37:03,680
Madam Ji.
650
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,800
Don't you think that this Jiang Li
651
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,080
is too different from ten years ago?
652
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,120
Are you talking about her temperament
653
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,280
or her looks?
654
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,440
Jiang Li was very young when she left.
655
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,000
She looks somewhat similar to her.
656
00:37:21,720 --> 00:37:22,960
But her temperament
657
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,960
has totally changed.
658
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:27,320
Be careful with your words.
659
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,840
SIMPLE AND ELEGANT
660
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,240
Don't say things like that
661
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,240
in front of his lordship and Old Madam.
662
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,040
If word gets out,
663
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,840
people will think that I'm not willing
664
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,040
to acknowledge
the Jiang family's legitimate daughter.
665
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:46,520
Since she dares to return,
666
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,640
it means that she's fully prepared.
667
00:37:49,720 --> 00:37:51,640
If she's the real Jiang Li,
668
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:53,880
I'll show her
who calls the shots in this place.
669
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:56,960
If she's fake,
670
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,120
she'll expose herself eventually
671
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,920
under my watch.
672
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,400
Then we'll find out what her motive is
673
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:07,640
when the time comes.
674
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,600
Send two maids to her tomorrow.
675
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,040
Remember.
676
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,600
They must serve her well.
677
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,520
Ms. Jiang.
678
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:36,800
Ms. Sun.
679
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,440
They are Xiangqiao and Yunshuang.
680
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:50,360
-My lady.
-My lady.
681
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,600
Xiangqiao is...
682
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,000
-What should I say?
-Clever and quick-witted.
683
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:56,640
-Clever and quick-witted.
-Obedient and sensible.
684
00:38:56,720 --> 00:38:58,880
-Obedient and sensible.
-All right.
685
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,080
Yunshuang is...
686
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,360
Introduce yourself. Hurry.
687
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,240
-Diligent.
-Diligent.
688
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,280
Hard-working.
689
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,600
Hard-working. All right.
690
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:10,920
-My lady, you're so pretty.
-My lady, you're so pretty.
691
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,760
Yes. She's beautiful.
692
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:13,680
Both of them
693
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,560
used to serve Madam Ji.
694
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:16,480
But since you
695
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,080
only have one maid with you,
696
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:19,560
it's too constraining.
697
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,600
So she told me
698
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,040
to send them here to serve you.
699
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:24,360
Please relay my thanks to Mother.
700
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,720
My lady, look.
701
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:35,920
These are the new clothes,
702
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,120
new jewelry,
703
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:39,440
and the monthly allowance
704
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:40,800
that Madam Ji prepared for you.
705
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:41,880
Please keep them well.
706
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,760
Mother is so kind.
707
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:44,760
Put them at the back.
708
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,680
Xiangqiao, Yunshuang.
709
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,360
Serve her ladyship well.
710
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,520
With all your heart.
711
00:39:59,720 --> 00:40:01,880
I'll get going now.
712
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:03,800
All right.
713
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:22,960
Xiangqiao.
714
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,280
Go and wash the cups.
715
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,640
All right.
716
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,960
How frightening! What should I do?
717
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,360
I broke them.
718
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,800
How could you break them?
719
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,840
My hands are calloused and rough.
720
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,520
I can only do some menial work.
721
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,120
I still need some time
722
00:40:51,240 --> 00:40:52,680
to get used to delicate work.
723
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,040
Although your hands
are calloused and rough,
724
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:57,360
this is not skilled work.
725
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,720
And you can't even do it.
726
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,040
If I say that it's menial work,
727
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:01,560
then it is.
728
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:02,480
Menial.
729
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:03,520
Tong'er.
730
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,840
Xiangqiao's hands are calloused
and can only do menial work.
731
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,920
Do this kind of skilled work
in the future.
732
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,760
Then you'll sweep the floor from now on.
733
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,320
The cups are broken.
734
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,560
I need to go to the storehouse
to replace them.
735
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:26,680
How could she be like that?
736
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,000
She was bullying us on purpose.
737
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,080
More things like this
will happen in the future.
738
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,040
Yunshuang.
739
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:39,840
Go and get some fertilizer.
740
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:41,320
They don't have it.
741
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,800
You haven't asked.
How do you know they don't have it?
742
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,240
Hey, it's not something
that's readily available.
743
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:48,680
No one is a foreseer,
744
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,680
who knows we'd need some fertilizer today.
745
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,440
We need to ask someone to come here
746
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,280
and list out what we need, right?
747
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,480
Then they'll send someone
to purchase them.
748
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:58,520
Go and do that then.
749
00:41:58,600 --> 00:41:59,680
Now?
750
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:00,760
I can't do that.
751
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,760
The housekeepers
are definitely not in right now.
752
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:05,520
If I just go there like this,
753
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,000
I'll get 50 flogs.
754
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:07,920
I won't go.
755
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,000
How do you know she's not there
if you haven't asked?
756
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:11,520
Forget it.
757
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,000
Tong'er, go and ask them to come yourself.
758
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:16,440
All right.
759
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:21,240
My stomach is aching.
760
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,440
I need to use the toilet.
761
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,720
This is so sweet. Give it a taste.
762
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:39,200
Is it sweet?
763
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:43,240
It's so sweet.
764
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,440
I want to see if you can keep
sitting there and doing nothing.
765
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:48,680
Why can't we?
766
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:50,760
Her ladyship said
767
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:51,880
that we could take a rest
768
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,640
whenever we are tired.
769
00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:54,640
Are you tired?
770
00:42:54,720 --> 00:42:56,080
I'm exhausted.
771
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:57,440
-What about you?
-Same.
772
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:59,720
Here. Eat this.
773
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:00,800
Don't worry.
774
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:02,520
I won't wash or touch the curtains
775
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,120
in these two buckets.
776
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,040
I'm going to show the Jiang family
how their maids are.
777
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:12,440
I'll do it.
778
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,440
My lady, how can you do this kind of work?
779
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,720
I worked half a day too,
but I'm not complaining about being tired.
780
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:27,360
She didn't throw a tantrum?
781
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:29,560
How obedient.
782
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,720
I also think that it's so strange.
783
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:33,200
I even asked
784
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,960
those two maids to bully her more.
785
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:38,080
I never thought that her ladyship
786
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,440
would be so accepting.
787
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:42,520
Madam Ji.
788
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,160
-Should we bully her even more?
-There's no need.
789
00:43:46,240 --> 00:43:47,960
Just ask people to continue watching her.
790
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,840
Inform me at once if she does anything.
791
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,280
It'll be Ruoyao's hairpin ceremony soon.
792
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,160
I don't want to spend any energy on her.
793
00:43:57,720 --> 00:43:59,000
If she knows her place,
794
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,720
I can tolerate her.
795
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,080
But if she doesn't...
796
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,000
GAZEBO
797
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,280
Miss.
798
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,440
Look at them.
They don't act like maids at all.
799
00:44:23,720 --> 00:44:25,920
Miss, you are Ms. Jiang now.
800
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,480
You can punish them.
801
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:28,920
Are you done?
802
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,000
Also...
803
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:32,360
They are the ones
804
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:33,600
who cause trouble every time,
805
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,320
But I must clean up their mess.
806
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:38,000
Are you mad?
807
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,560
Of course.
808
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,680
I just think they haven't been here long,
809
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,280
but they're already bullying us.
810
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:45,760
What should we do in the future?
811
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:47,360
We're new here.
812
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,360
If I order the maids around
813
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,920
and punish them severely,
814
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,640
what would Old Madam Jiang
and Jiang Yuanbai think of me
815
00:44:55,720 --> 00:44:56,720
if they hear about it?
816
00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,360
Are you saying that...
817
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:00,320
Think about it.
818
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,000
These two maids worked fine
for the family before this.
819
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,760
Why have they done badly
in Fangfei Courtyard?
820
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,360
Wouldn't that make me look bossy?
821
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,000
Once I'm labeled as bossy,
822
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,240
the guilt that
Jiang Yuanbai feels toward Li'er
823
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,640
for letting her suffer
ten years on the mountain
824
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,240
will be erased by Ji Shuran easily.
825
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,400
But miss,
we can't keep backing down, right?
826
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,800
I'm enduring it because
I don't want to expose myself.
827
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,480
But you are an honest person.
828
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,680
So it confuses them.
829
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:36,840
Miss,
830
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,040
have you come up
with a solution against them?
831
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:42,520
After they work for me
for the past two days,
832
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,720
I've already figured them out.
833
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:46,880
We've given them plenty of chances.
834
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,320
-Here. Lend a hand.
-Be careful.
835
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:53,880
Let's go.
836
00:45:55,240 --> 00:45:57,000
-Be careful.
-Where should I put it?
837
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:58,200
-Over here.
-All right.
838
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:00,960
-Watch the steps.
-Be careful.
839
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:03,200
Here.
840
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:05,320
Put it in front.
841
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:07,480
Put it here.
842
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:10,480
-There.
-All right. I'll go ahead.
843
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:11,520
Take this.
844
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:13,760
-Be careful.
-What is this for?
845
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,040
My lord, these are arranged by Madam Ji.
846
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,440
Isn't it Ms. Ruoyao's
hairpin ceremony soon?
847
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,960
Put one here.
848
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:28,240
My dear.
849
00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:30,280
On my way here,
850
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,800
I can see that the residence
is being decorated.
851
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,760
You have worked hard.
852
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,080
It's my duty.
853
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,960
This is the guest list
for the hairpin ceremony.
854
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:42,840
Please take a look at it.
855
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,640
I'll leave it to you to make the decision.
856
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:51,280
What's wrong?
857
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,280
This is a major ceremony for Ruoyao.
858
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,760
We have to invite the Marquis of Ningyuan.
859
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:11,440
I'm not worried
860
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,360
about the Marquis of Ningyuan
feeling offended.
861
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,560
After all, Li'er is our child.
862
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,160
She'll meet the public sooner or later.
863
00:47:17,240 --> 00:47:18,800
I'm just afraid she'll feel ill at ease.
864
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,520
She was engaged to Zhou Yanbang
from the Marquis' Mansion.
865
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,400
But due to the mistake that she made,
866
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,280
we discussed with the marquis
that Ruoyao should take her place.
867
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,880
If Li'er sees Ruoyao and Yanbang together,
868
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,640
I'm afraid she won't feel at ease.
869
00:47:33,720 --> 00:47:35,160
Moreover,
870
00:47:35,240 --> 00:47:36,680
we are a prestigious family.
871
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,280
There'll be many officials
872
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,000
attending Ruoyao's hairpin ceremony.
873
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:42,080
If Li'er is around
874
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,960
and the incident with Old Madam
that day repeats itself,
875
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:46,360
it'll be bad for her.
876
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,240
You have a point.
877
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,760
If she can't handle
the situation properly,
878
00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,400
she'll be criticized.
879
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,920
We won't let Li'er attend
the hairpin ceremony.
880
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,920
Let her get used to living
in the capital city first.
881
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,600
Then, we'll find a chance
to introduce her to the public.
882
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:11,760
Your wish is my command.
883
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:14,680
You've worked hard lately.
884
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:15,880
Let me give you a massage.
885
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,360
JIANG RESIDENCE
886
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:45,080
Xiangqiao.
887
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:46,920
Come.
888
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:54,280
Only Xiangqiao is called.
889
00:48:58,040 --> 00:48:59,560
Go. It's fine.
890
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:02,880
Xiangqiao, have a seat.
891
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:08,440
Tong'er.
892
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:11,920
Pour some tea for her.
893
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:16,640
My lady.
894
00:49:16,720 --> 00:49:18,240
You are too kind.
895
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:19,880
You just have to give me your order.
896
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:22,040
I have
897
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:23,520
already lectured Tong'er.
898
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,080
She grew up at Zhennv Hall with me
since she was a kid,
899
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:28,760
so she doesn't know the rules
900
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,240
and she doesn't know
the ways of the world.
901
00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:32,480
She's a straightforward person.
902
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:33,480
Please don't blame her.
903
00:49:35,240 --> 00:49:36,280
You're being too serious.
904
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,160
We just want to serve you well.
905
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:44,120
We lived at Zhennv Hall for so many years.
906
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:45,160
We've just returned
907
00:49:45,240 --> 00:49:47,560
and there are many rules
that we don't know.
908
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,640
I hope that you can give us
some guidance after this.
909
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:54,680
This...
910
00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,040
My lady.
911
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,320
This is what Mother gave me
when I just came back.
912
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:06,960
I have nowhere to wear it.
913
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,160
Do you like it?
914
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:14,240
Well...
915
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,120
If you like it,
916
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:17,600
you can have it.
917
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:19,600
Thank you, my lady.
918
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:23,160
I have something else to ask you.
919
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:25,760
What is it, my lady?
920
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,680
I saw many servants moving
921
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,320
some potted plants outside.
922
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:31,680
This place is bustling.
923
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,440
Are we going to have
some important guests over?
924
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,680
Ms. Ruoyao's hairpin ceremony
is in a few days.
925
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:38,360
Everyone is getting ready for it.
926
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:42,040
I see.
927
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:43,920
Give me more tea.
928
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:46,760
Here.
929
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,920
I can't visit Grandmother these days
930
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,400
since I'm afraid she'll get upset.
931
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,160
But I'm a bit bored here.
932
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,320
My courtyard looks nice,
933
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:00,760
but it's a little bit empty.
934
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:02,960
Can you get me
935
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,120
some potted plants
from the housekeeper to decorate it?
936
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:08,680
Although I can't help
with my sister's ceremony,
937
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,240
I want to make
my living quarters look livelier.
938
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:13,600
My lady.
939
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:15,120
Well...
940
00:51:15,720 --> 00:51:16,560
I...
941
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:22,560
I know the rules of the residence.
942
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,560
If you can help me with this,
943
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,080
other than this hairpin,
944
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,520
more will be coming.
945
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,200
Just leave this trivial thing to me.
946
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:36,480
What a traitorous
947
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:38,760
and shameless woman.
948
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:40,680
Thank you, my lady.
949
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,880
My lady, you are too generous.
950
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,040
The more they get from me, the better.
951
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:57,800
At this point,
952
00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:59,680
we still don't know
about the hairpin ceremony.
953
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,480
I guess they don't want me to attend.
954
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,000
Ji Shuran has a great plan instead.
955
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,480
She doesn't want me
to get close to the Jiang family.
956
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:10,920
And she doesn't want the public to see me.
957
00:52:12,720 --> 00:52:15,320
If I let her hide me in the dark,
958
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,280
it'll be pointless for me
to return to the Jiang family.
959
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,560
I'll always be the Jiang Li
who's surrounded by rumors.
960
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,400
So I have to attend this hairpin ceremony.
961
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,920
I want to let everyone
in the capital city knows
962
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:34,120
that Jiang Li is the eldest
legitimate daughter of the Jiang family.
