‎SAY NO TO PIRACY, SUPPORT ORIGINALS

‎ADAPTED FROM ‎JIA JIN CHAI‎, ORIGINAL NOVEL ‎BY XIAOJIAREN ON JINJIANG LITERATURE CITY

MARQUIS OF XITING'S RESIDENCE

Sir, to get this person out of the manor,

we took advantage of the Nuo troupe.

While they were hauling their drum boxes,

we slipped out of the Duke's Residence.

Good work. A generous reward awaits.

Thank you, Sir.

Lady Lu,

despite your careful calculations, you still end up in my hands.

Well?

It must feel bad being trapped inside a box.

Calm down.

I know you are a fake.

As long as you obey and help me out with something,

I will send you back unharmed.

Sir!

I don't care who you are.

Release me immediately!

Any later, I'll tear you limb from limb and mince you to a pulp.

Who are you?

How dare you act so arrogantly?

You kidnapped me without knowing who I am?

Old Madam Wei of the Earl of Cheng'an's Residence is my…

God-grandmother.

She treats me like her own granddaughter.

If you don't send me back safely,

I'll report you to the officials and have you executed!

God-grandmother?

I think

she is your actual grandmother.

-What nonsense are you talking about? -What?

The fake is pretending to be a noble lady, and the real one is a shrew?

What in the world is the Wei family trying to achieve?

Who do you think you are?

Whether I'm real or a fake is none of your business!

Let me out!

What a crazy woman.

Let me out!

Help! Someone!

She's worse than the fake one.

Hurry and shut her mouth!

Someone! Help!

Don't touch me!

-Don't touch me! -Rao!

Get lost!

Get up.

A mere merchant dares to trespass on my residence?

Capture them immediately!

Who dares?

I just left the city and came across Grandmother's convoy.

Only then did I realize she rushed back to celebrate the Duchess' birthday.

Unfortunately, a storm held her her up

and delayed her journey.

I failed to welcome my esteemed guest.

Lady Shou'an, please forgive me.

Enough. Cut the pleasantries.

I don't like fake, pretentious behavior.

I'm exhausted from the arduous journey.

I have no patience for your idle chatter.

I'm taking her away.

Lady Shou'an, I can't stop you from leaving.

However, this woman pretended to be a noble's wife.

She acted suspiciously, and her identity is a mystery.

We cannot let her walk away.

Who am I?

Surely, you are His Majesty's wet nurse.

No commoner has ever been admitted to such nobility.

But you are the first wet nurse to be granted a fief and a title in this era.

Everyone in the capital knows who you are.

I thought you were so blind as not to recognize me.

I raised His Majesty all on my own.

Even your father's horse carriage has to show respect

and make way when it sees me.

You?

Barely out of the cradle

and you dare speak up to me?

If you don't let her go, believe it or not,

I'll burn all your manors to the ground.

Next, I'll accuse the Hans of bullying a lone old woman!

Let's see if His Majesty is going to seek justice for me.

Who else dares to stop me?

Let's go.

Keep a close eye on Duke's Residence and Xianzhuang for me.

I don't care if she's real or fake.

I must find real proof before I deal with her.

Yes.

Who are you, really?

Nuo dancers might be able to communicate with the supernatural,

but their income is a pittance.

Dancers are not allowed to show their faces.

Those who practice it usually come from poor families.

How is it possible that a daughter of an earl

knows the Nuo dance?

Because doing the Nuo dance at the temple ritual every year

earns me an extra 30 coins.

The types of dance popular in the capital are light and elegant,

but my maternal grandmother thinks it lacks strength and vigor.

She likes watching Nuo dance and Sword dance.

Nuo dance steps are easy to learn.

Longsword dance or Dagger play are something I dare not perform.

Back then, my birth mother could sing and dance well.

She never forgets a song she learns,

but often draws criticism.

Grandmother didn't like it either,

so she never allows me to perform.

That was why I didn't tell you.

I only performed it in front of others for this birthday banquet.

My Lord, why do you doubt me?

When you met Xie Hualou in the past, you'd go mad.

You'd use the world's most despicable schemes

just to defeat and humiliate your enemy.

Tonight, even if you were backed into a corner by the Xies,

you were still acting calm and collected.

Wei Rao, when did you get so generous?

All the elders were present.

I must consider the greater good.

You had a secret chat with your cousin Huo.

What did you two talk about?

Private matters between relatives.

I was afraid Grandmother…

Why did you get angry and toss the Hans' gift

and ignore the guests?

You were away from the banquet,

yet the servants saw Qi Zhongkai send you back to the banquet.

Your cousin left the banquet rudely.

Why was that?

-I… -I want to hear the truth.

Compared to when I first met you,

your temperament, manner, and conduct are all different.

Within two months, how could there be such a big difference?

Who are you?

Tell me. Who in the world are you?

What are you doing?

Who am I?

My Lord.

Tell me who I am.

Wei Rao, put on your clothes immediately.

Even if I'm standing in front of you with all my clothes removed,

you won't spare me a second glance.

I am your wife who disgusts you.

Lu Zhuo!

As the heir, you need a wife who is dignified,

gracious, gentle and virtuous.

I changed myself for you.

I changed my temperament.

I spent my efforts organizing the banquet.

I showed myself and performed in front of everyone

just to win your favor.

What about you?

You sat there,

and watched as I endured the pain, barely able to stand.

You never said a word of concern.

Instead, you suspected and questioned me.

Who am I?

Tell me who I am.

I'm a fool who gave my heart to the wrong person!

My Lord, remember.

What I said to General Qi and my conversation with my cousin

are my family matters.

We'll only be married for a year.

You are not my husband.

Who I meet is none of your business.

A year from now, we will part ways.

I don't care who you'd marry.

You should leave me alone as well.

From now on,

No prying, no digging, never enter my room for no reason.

Otherwise, I'll pack up and return home immediately.

You can explain it to Old Madam yourself.

Get out!

I didn't mean to offend you.

Listen to me…

My Lord.

She is ill?

Why didn't you get the physician?

Forgive me, My Lord.

Madam was busy on the banquet for days

and felt a sudden pain in her stomach.

She was worried that others might know

and thought she was too weak to carry out the task.

She doesn't want to cause you trouble,

so I was not allowed to speak about it.

-Jiede. -Yes.

Take my slip

and call Physician Yang from the palace who excels at treating stomach pains.

Yes, My Lord.

XIANZHUANG

Tell me. What actually happened?

Maternal Grandmother.

I made a mistake as a clueless child

and was banished from the family by Grandmother.

I have nowhere to go.

Maternal Grandmother,

please pity me for being a lonely orphan and take me in.

Don't chase me away.

That old woman from the Wei family expelled you?

How cruel.

While her decision might be justified,

she is still a descendant of the family after all.

Old Madam Wei was too harsh.

Maternal Grandmother, please stand up for Rao.

If that's what really happened,

I'll march straight to the Weis and give them what they deserve

but…

But why?

Why did she become so livid

that she kicked out her own granddaughter?

You are the heir's wife.

What makes her think she could kick you out?

Dowager Lady, Old Madam Wei is here.

Nice timing.

Rao, leave for now.

I…

Be patient.

Maternal Grandmother knows what to do.

What a rare guest.

The last time we had a peaceful conversation

was probably more than a decade ago.

It was seventeen years ago, the twenty-third of the last month.

I will never forget.

It was the Little New Year.

Every household was cleaning and paying respects to the Kitchen God.

After the hour of Wu,

my son's coffin was carried into my residence's gates.

My second son was stubborn and knew what he wanted.

I searched throughout the capital

to finally find a noble lady for him to marry.

However, he'd rather be flogged 40 times

just to refuse the marriage and marry your daughter instead.

Back then, I didn't stop him.

Later, it became my greatest resentment.

Time has passed.

After so long, why are you bringing this up?

When your daughter, Zhou, married into my household,

he treated her with care.

Zhou was good at dancing and music.

My son searched all over the capital for famous scores.

Zhou was laughed at because of her modest background.

My son fought on the battlefield to get her a title.

My second son was born handsome and courageous.

He was skilled in both the literary and martial arts.

Everyone praised him.

He was the pride of my life.

But not long after he passed away,

the woman he loved most abandoned him.

She abandoned her young daughter and went away to seek someone better.

I hate it.

I hate that daughter of yours, Zhou.

I hate you, you old, shameless woman who fawns over the powerful.

I hate everyone in your household.

It's because of you that my son, who gave his life serving his country,

is still mocked even after death.

They laughed at him and called him an idiot and a fool.

His death brought your daughter wealth, honor, and favor.

He helped your household gain fame, and power.

You even harmed my granddaughter.

She was afraid to go out and show herself to others

from a young age.

It's only right for a widow to remarry.

One must live one's own life.

Why are you so hung up on other people's opinions?

You are the one who is stubborn and close-minded.

Yes. I am close-minded.

Your daughter only cared about her own glory

and ignored the future life and reputation of her infant daughter.

If my second son hadn't sacrificed his life to save the Lus,

did you think Rao could marry into the Lu household now?

Look around the capital.

None of the educated families

dare to marry a daughter of your Zhou family.

Do you also want my granddaughter

to disgrace herself and marry a lowly merchant?

You can remain scornful as much as you want

but you shouldn't neglect Rao.

She was almost kidnapped.

Thankfully, she is blessed.

Otherwise, her fate would still be unknown.

If anyone should harbor resentment, it's me.

I resent myself for being so soft-hearted and tolerant.

I should've brought Rao home so she wouldn't be neglected by you.

I swear in the name of Heaven and my late son.

I've treated Rao the best I could.

I might have spoiled her.

That is why she acted without a care and committed a grave mistake.

She almost cost the lives of everyone in the family.

What did she do?

Ask her yourself.

However, I hope all of you remember this.

Rao is my granddaughter whom I raised myself.

I gave her everything I had.

What everyone else says means nothing.

The one I say is my own, that's my real granddaughter.

Doesn't matter whose support she's got.

Anyone who dares cause trouble here

and drag the Wei family into disgrace again

don't blame me, a grandmother,

for setting aside the ties of kinship.

Let's go back.

DEEP CLOUDS, TWILIGHT SEAS

Maternal Grandmother, you heard everything.

Grandmother is cruel and vicious.

She has disowned me.

Kneel.

Kneel!

Tell me what you did honestly.

-Kneel. -I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I?

Lu Zhuo was seriously injured and was going to die.

The Lus kept forcing me to get married.

I didn't want to become a widow so I found myself a substitute.

Later, Lu Zhuo survived by luck.

That wretch clung to her status and wouldn't return the position.

Why can't I kill her?

How dare a lowly peasant stand against me?

Maternal Grandmother.

You're so domineering and willful.

How are you anything like your mother?

Maternal Grandmother, you're so unfair.

Mother didn't want to become a widow, so you asked her to marry someone else.

You even praised her courage.

How come it's wrong when I do the same?

What? She shouldn't have to be my father's widow,

but I have to be Lu Zhuo's widow?

You…

Maternal Grandmother. Calm down.

Rao is ignorant and reckless.

She needs to be punished.

But the important thing now isn't getting angry at her,

but to plan for her future.

Keep talking.

Maternal Grandmother, I spoke with the wretch.

She is cunning and calculative.

Her flattering words gained the Duchess' favor.

Even Lord Lu was…

He was bewitched by her.

In a few days, she established a foothold at the Duke's Residence.

She's certainly no pushover.

However, Old Madam Wei won't stand up for Rao to protect her reputation.

After this grave mistake,

there is no choice but to ask Aunt in the palace to…

Shut up!

Your aunt isn't the one in control of the harem.

Do you want her to go against the Empress Dowager's decree?

Her own daughter committed an atrocity.

You're practically giving them a knife to use against you.

Maternal Grandmother, you should send a message to Mother

so she won't be fooled by an impostor and treat her like her own daughter.

What a tragedy.

Your reckless actions last night have probably given them a heads-up.

Do not act recklessly anymore unless you have a foolproof plan.

The palace is full of prying eyes.

We must be cautious when sending messages.

I will find a way. Let's wait for an opportunity.

-I… -Rao.

We'll listen to you.

We don't need you here anymore.

You're dismissed.

His Lordship ordered us to watch Her Ladyship take her medicine.

I dare not go against his order.

Here, My Lady.

My Lady, have a candied fruit.

My Lady, your stomach is in pain.

Why did you go through with the Nuo dance?

You were the victor and received all the praise.

Why are you still upset?

It's too quiet.

I'm afraid.

What are you afraid of?

The calm before the storm.

Bitao.

There's something on my mind.

If you can't decide what to do, what then?

My Lady, what about tossing bamboo tokens?

If they land on different sides, what you want can be done.

If both land on the dark side, it's forbidden by Heaven.

If both land on the bright side, you have to do it again.

What do you want to ask, My Lady?

Lord Lu is arrogant and suspicious.

He kept testing me. A real handful.

The capital is full of nobles.

He is not the only one I can rely on.

I want to ask Heaven.

Is it possible to rely on someone else?

My Lady, they both land on the dark side.

Heaven says it's not viable.

It's impossible.

Heaven says no.

But I say otherwise.

Be careful.

-Here. I will take it. -Okay.

Be careful.

What's going on?

Who told you to move all of these?

Put them back. Put all of them back.

My Lord. Old Madam says

a newly married couple cannot live separately for too long.

If people start talking, it'll also be a disgrace for Her Ladyship.

Old Madam asks you to move back to the inner quarters.

That won't do.

Lord Lu isn't fully recovered yet.

The physician ordered him to abstain from carnal pleasures strictly.

My Lord, am I right?

I understand.

You hear that? Pack up everything.

Be careful.

Don't be clumsy and damage His Lordship's military scrolls.

‎Got it.

I didn't mean to doubt you.

I heard reports from the servants

that you tossed the Han family's gift for some unknown reason.

Also the secret meeting with your cousin.

I was worried that other people might find out

and gossip about it.

It would make you upset.

I didn't mean to test you,

much less hurt you.

If you don't like it, I won't question any further.

However, the time limit of one or two years,

don't bring it up so casually anymore.

If my grandmother finds out, it is bound to cause a huge uproar.

Grandmother had someone move my belongings here.

I'll ask them

to move all my stuff to the adjacent room.

I'll be staying over there.

Wei Rao?

Servants!

My Lord, General Qi is here to pay a sick visit.

Her Ladyship is greeting him at Jiangyun Hall now.

JIANGYUN HALL

The Zhongwan pressure point

is located in the upper abdomen, roughly one,

two, three, four inches above.

I understand now after your demonstration, General Qi.

What's going on in here?

It's all smoky and stifling.

Anyone who didn't know would think there's a fire in here.

Lady Wei Rao has a stomach problem

must be a weak constitution,

made worse by the cold.

I'm teaching Bitao to use a moxibustion stick to treat the Zhongwan,

Liangmen, and Zusanli points.

She only needs the treatment every other day.

It'll be beneficial for her.

You even know her maid's name?

I've known you for so many years,

but I didn't know you knew moxibustion.

Little food and medicine back at the frontier.

What we lacked most were physicians.

I've treated wounds for you and the soldiers.

This is nothing much for me.

From your mistress's complexion,

too much cold, raw food. Her qi is insufficient.

She should cut down on noodles.

It's bad for digestion.

If she can't have rice on its own, you can steam it with sweet dates.

I understand.

You haven't told me where the Liangmen and Zusanli points are located.

Why did you stop?

Also on the upper abdomen.

Look. This is the Liangmen pressure point.

This is the Zusanli point.

My Lord, what do you want?

This is a small room.

What if you're choked by the moxibustion smoke?

All of you, leave.

What? Did you two argue?

General Qi, you are close to Lord Lu.

Tell me.

Why would a husband refuse to open up to his wife?

No matter how hard I beg, he will not communicate with me.

And why would he sleep in a different room and ignore me?

When I accidentally touch his hand,

he will be enraged

as if I'm infected with the plague and will transmit it to him.

You are the one who knows him best.

Please enlighten me.

Am I so hideous and vulgar that I'm not worth a glance?

Naturally, you're… very pretty.

However, Lu Zhuo is someone who doesn't show his feelings.

Don't take it to heart.

Perhaps he hates me and dislikes everything about me.

It's all the fault of useless generals like you.

I really hate that war.

It ties up two people who hate each other.

My life has been ruined.

I don't know how to comfort you.

Whatever I say will be wrong now.

Please accept my apology.

Who needs your apology?

Is it also your fault that he hates me?

In the future, if you are upset with anything,

just tell me.

If I can be of your service, I will never refuse.

GALAXY OF VERSES

It's my own misfortune.

Who are you to me?

I dare not ask you to serve me.

Leave. Never return again.

I also get angry when I see you.

Lady Wei Rao, take care.

Why didn't you address me as sister-in-law?

How rude.

Eating rice with soup is bad for your illness.

Old habits die hard.

Don't you have anything to say to me?

No chatting while dining.

I'm not trying to control your behavior,

but Qi Zhongkai is an outsider.

I've taken a fancy to your good friend.

What did you say?

I'm telling you that I fancy Qi Zhongkai.

A married woman

saying something like that before her husband.

How dare you?

Why not?

I'm rather ignorant.

I knew that your mother was in a rush

to marry someone else after your father passed away,

but I didn't expect you to outdo her.

You've been married for a mere two months,

and you already set your eye on another man.

Your husband is still alive!

You…

Shameless!

I only married into the Lu family for the auspicious match.

Your cousin came to fetch the bride.

I went through the ritual with a rooster.

Later, you even refused to take me as your wife.

I've never worshipped at your ancestral hall.

The ritual hasn't been completed.

I'm not considered a bride of the Lu family.

What binds us is just a decree from the Empress Dowager.

Yet imperial decree is inferior to human hearts.

Marriage is determined by fate,

never meant to be forced.

After all, one year will go by in the blink of an eye.

I must make plans for myself after all.

Then, what do you plan to do?

I heard

you've fancied someone else for a while.

Xie Hualou is indeed pretty and talented.

Now, I'm willing to be the matchmaker and plan for both of you.

In the future, when both of you marry each other,

let's call it making up for my mistakes.

So?

The Xie family has been grand tutors for two dynasties.

They would never allow their granddaughter to be someone's second wife.

This isn't easy.

Without my help,

you will never be with her.

So,

I won't do this without getting something in return.

You want me to matchmake you two as a middleman?

Not at all.

I just need you to be tolerant

and generous.

If you don't interfere,

I have my own way of making this happen.

I understand.

Lord Lu, you don't look too well.

What's wrong?

Everything you said is reasonable.

Since we are not a real couple, I can't tell you what to do.

Your plan is perfect, but extremely difficult to execute.

After all,

the tongue is as sharp as a sword.

It kills without spilling blood.

All three families are nobles.

Fooling around with marriage is ridiculous.

Even if you have a plan, you need to carry it out slowly.

Don't draw attention and act so openly.

I will be cautious and not make myself a laughingstock.

Thank you, my Lord, for your gracious favor.

HERITAGE PRESERVED, GOODNESS PROCLAIMED

My Lady, don't stay out.

You might fall ill again at night.

Why are you laughing, My Lady?

I'm laughing because someone might get too angry to sleep tonight.

My Lady, do you mean…

Madam Liu used to tell me

that that's all there is to humanity.

People don't cherish what they get easily.

When there's competition, even slop tastes better.

Go to sleep.

SONGYUE HALL

SHIZHAI

The wounds haven't completely healed yet.

Yet practicing swordsmanship since midnight.

Where's all this energy coming from?

Zhuo.

It's me.

It's you?

My eyes are blurred, and I couldn't recognize you.

Old Madam threatened to confine you here with her life.

I am kind enough to bring you news from court.

Is this how you repay me?

I've taken a fancy to your good friend.

Zhao Song.

Lying around all day, everything feels weak.

Just got the itch, that's all.

When you are fully recovered,

I'll practice with you.

Are the Hans attempting something again?

You are right.

The Hans have offered many treasures to the palace.

They have been recorded here.

Han Liao might be the Empress Dowager's family,

but he's a distant relative.

Without the Marquis of Xiting and his son's help,

he wouldn't have climbed up the ranks so quickly.

Jiede,

I asked you to buy the Pig Skin Pancake.

Did you get them?

I sent someone to get them yesterday.

Please give me one more day.

I'll surely get it tomorrow.

Pig Skin Pancake?

The pastry Wei Rao saw at the Western Market on the night of Qixi.

She said it was a pancake made from rice slurry.

After drizzling hemp milk on it, its skin is as smooth as a pig's skin.

Unfortunately, we left in a hurry and didn't buy it.

When we came back, it was always on her mind.

Keep searching.

Yes.

Pig Skin Pancake?

MANIFEST AND MAKE YOUR VIRTUE SHINE

My Lord, General Qi left his residence and headed east.

-East? -Yes. The people tailing him said

he first went to the Western Market,

before going to Liu Market.

He seemed to be looking for something.

MANIFEST AND MAKE YOUR VIRTUE SHINE

Both of them have feelings for each other.

I, the husband,

have become irrelevant.

I'm merely an eyesore here.

MANIFEST AND MAKE YOUR VIRTUE SHINE

It is said that the great affairs of a state

are sacrifice and war.

What holds true for a state holds true for a family as well.

In the past, you were the one organizing the Mengqiu Family Mourning Ritual.

Yesterday, Mother told me

that hosting the ritual was the principal wife's duty.

Mother is weak and can't handle the task.

That's why you have had to carry the burden at such an old age.

With a bride this year,

Mother will have another helper.

It is only natural for her to manage the ritual.

Young Master, you are still young.

You don't know what's important.

The ritual is different from organizing Mother's birthday banquet.

The birthday banquet is a celebratory event.

It's fine as long as there aren't any major mistakes.

The mourning ritual is a huge thing for the clan.

Not only are the rules complicated,

but hundreds of people from the clan will be watching and looking for faults.

You better not cause trouble for your wife.

Right.

Wanniang. You have always been calm and unassuming.

You don't like meddling in the clan's business.

The children are eager for quick success.

Can't you talk to them?

Exactly.

Both of you are right.

The Mengqiu Family Mourning Ritual is a big deal.

I dare not host it no matter what.

Don't joke around, My Lord.

I'm proposing this because of another reason.

A marriage ties two families together.

They are to honor the ancestors and carry on the family lineage.

When a woman marries into the family,

she must first go through the ceremony

to get the ancestors' blessing before she can become a part of the Lu family.

During the wedding, I was sick

and failed to present my wife to the ancestors.

At the time of Mengqiu Family Ritual,

we can make up for the ancestral ceremony.

Grandmother, Wei Rao's marriage blessed me and saved my life.

If I made her a subject of gossip due to incomplete rites,

the Heaven will punish me.

Old Madam, there's no need for this.

I dare not manage the family ritual.

You young ones know nothing.

A bride going through the ancestral temple ceremony

is more important than greeting the aunts and uncles.

Once a bride bows to the ancestors, it's set in stone.

You will be the Lu family's principal wife,

the Duke's Residence's future lady of the house.

Rao, you hear that?

Lu Zhuo is the eldest son, the pillar of the family.

He will inherit the duke's title in the future.

You've got a heavy load on your shoulders too.

Forget the distant ones, consider these two aunts before you.

They might be your elders,

But for big clan affairs

they have to take orders from the clan matriarch.

Right?

Rao,

I'll leave everything to you.

LU'S ANCESTRAL TEMPLE

We decided to be a fake couple.

Why must you go through with the temple ceremony?

So much trouble, for nothing

It will not end well in future.

An old saying goes, "if the title isn't right, nothing you say carries weight."

Even if you're the principal wife for just a month and not a year,

managing the household,

attending to guests and keeping servants in check

are no easy tasks.

A LOYAL HEART SHINES BRIGHT

Wei Rao. My mother is gentle and meek,

but not good at managing people

I hope you can be a capable wife by my side

to keep my aunts in check.

How can you do that without a proper title?

That's all?

What else can it be?

No need to be so distrustful.

When it's time to part ways, we do it.

I, Lu Zhuo, am a man of my word.

I won't force you to stay for any longer.

Don't worry.

Your work won't be for nothing.

Grandmother promised you ten thousand taels of dowry.

A year later, I'll carry out her promise.

I don't want your jewelry.

Do you want people to laugh and say

the Lu family's bride cannot even be allowed

to pray at the ancestral temple?

You…

Fine, go ahead.

A gentleman's promise must be kept.

You must keep your word.

Don't worry.

Everyone, be careful.

What? She's not in again?

General, she's really not in.

Lady Wei Rao wants to eat Pig Skin Pancake.

I searched every market to find it

and so it wouldn't go cold,

I brought someone here to make it.

Three days in a row, not a sign of her.

Tell me honestly.

Did you send my message

or did Lu Zhuo purposely prevent us from meeting each other?

-Ridiculous. -That's not it.

The Hungry Ghost Festival is near,

Lady Lu is busy preparing for the ritual.

She goes out at sunrise and only returns at sunset.

She even has to do her hair and makeup in the horse carriage.

She is too busy to meet guests.

Please forgive her for not meeting you.

Fine. I'll return another day.

Farewell, General. Take care.

LU'S ANCESTRAL TEMPLE

-She's out! -The bride who blessed the heir is out!

Someone who was almost dead recovered thanks to her blessing.

She is truly blessed.

What are we still waiting for?

Let's go closer to get some of her blessing.

Let us get some of your blessing!

Let us get some of your blessing!

A-Chou, I'm here!

-Let us get some! -It's me!

It's me, A-Chou!

A-Chou!

A-Chou! Over here, A-Chou!

It's me, A-Chou!

I'm here!

-It's me! -Madam!

-A-Chou! -Wei Rao.

It's me, A-Chou!

-A-Chou! -Madam!

A-Chou!

It's me, A-Chou!

A-Chou!

Let us have some blessings!

-A-Chou! -Let us have some!

A-Chou!

It's me!

A-Chou!

I'm here!

-It's me, A-Chou! -Don't worry, My Lady.

-Madam! -A-Chou!

A-Chou!

Get lost!

Come take a look inside.

-Hold it. -Come inside.

Her Ladyship has ordered

to find the beggar from just now without causing a scene.

I don't know.

I haven't seen him.

‎-Come and have a look. ‎-These are quite fresh.

‎Good.

A-Chou's really made it.

She lives a better life than the deities!

Tell me. Why didn't she share all this fortune with us?

Don't speak nonsense.

Ma is very ill, and we've spent all our money.

That is why we took the risk to return and find A-Chou.

Did she say when we can meet her?

Mother's illness cannot wait.

I'm late. Sorry for making you wait.

Forgive me.

Where is my sister?

Why isn't she coming to meet us?

Your sister is now the wife of the heir.

She is busy because of her duties.

However, she still cares for you and told me to take care of you.

Someone.

Quick.

I'm very close to your sister.

I'll treat her mother like my own,

and her siblings like my own.

I've called a famous physician for you, Madam.

He will be here after the meal.

All of you just need to live here with peace of mind.

If you need anything, just let me know.

Please.

Since you are A-Chou's friend, we are a family.

Come. Sit down. Let's eat.

Wei Rao.

I will treat them well for you.

The person I saw outside the temple that day.

Ask Liangcai to keep an eye in the city.

Report to me if he finds anything.

I understand.

Foolish!

My Lady, you are too kind.

How can you not punish such clumsiness?

It's improper if others see this.

A-Chou, is this nice?

My Lady, to know more about the red string's owner,

come to Triumph Tavern at three-quarters past the hour of Wei.

Arrive late, and we won't be waiting.
