"The Moon Will Remember" Singer: Guo Jing - Lyrics: Tang Tian - Melody: Wei Guobin

♫ I want to ask the distant moon if that is you ♫

♫ Wearing rainbow colored clothes, dancing under the falling flowers, and accompanying me through the years ♫

♫ Is that you? But the moon won't speak ♫

♫ The shadows in pairs is a line from a love poem ♫

♫ Protect my little light so it doesn't drift into the wind ♫

♫ There is light in the dark and a wide umbrella in the rain ♫

♫ When the rims of my eyes become red, you hold out your hands to me ♫

♫ My tears then blossom in your palms ♫

♫ Protecting my slight stubbornness and accompanying me to watch the moon ♫

♫ It will remember how we looked shoulder to shoulder ♫

♫ Even with the onslaught of time and hardships caught on the corners of our eyes ♫

♫ It's still all the sweetness you've given me ♫

Hurry up!

Base on which authority for you to make me carrying the water?

Go on! Hurry up!

- Where is the water? Hurry now! - Heavy!

Quite heavy!

- You only know now? - A minute!

Ni Chang, look! This is our Fragrant Herb Hall's special verbena cream.

Our method of how to use it, is to take part of it

and put it in the palm of your hand.

You can see that it has turned white.

Then roll it and rub it in our palm to emulsify it.

Like this!

Afterward, use the tip of your finger to apply a bit on the skin

and rub it in a circular motion.

Then pat it lightly and it will lighten the skin.

Look! Doesn't it make the skin to look more refined?

How amazing!

[Fragrant Herb Hall]

Ni Chang,

these books recorded a lot of flower and herbal medicines, which helps build the foundation.

It's good for you to read and remember well.

Once the foundation is laid down firmly, other skills can be easily obtained.

If you don't understand about something, you can come to ask me.

- Thank you, Master - Okay, okay. Get on with it!

"A Thousand Gold Essential Formula"

"A Thousand Gold Formula"

"A Collection of A Hundred Herbs"

"Huang Emperor's Internal Classic"

"Ancient Medical Records"

- Please come in. - Are you still hard at work?

I knew you must not have gone to bed yet.

Here! This is a bowl of Rose Soup.

- Drink it while it's still hot. - Thanks a lot, Mada.

I was just concentrate in reading these books and didn't notice that it has become so late.

You should take care of your health even if you must work hard. Don't get sick because of it!

Got it! However, Master said that

these books are boring and difficult to understand to begin with.

So many medicinal practitioners have spent years, or even decades, and still couldn't thoroughly understand them all.

I want to make progress in such a short time.

Without any idea, perseverance, and determination, it definitely won't be enough.

Therefore, I must work even harder.

That's the motto but your health is still more important.

Drink it while it's hot and rest early.

Moreover, even if you aren't tired, doesn't the other need to sleep, too?

- Who is "the other?" - When I just came earlier,

I saw Master Ouyang leaving from your hallway.

I suspect that maybe because you were pay attention to your studying,

although it hurts, he couldn't bear to disturb you.

You should also know that the water I used to make this soup,

was prepared by Young Master Ouyang.

Now-a-day, it's rare to see these Young Masters to be so righteous and caring.

Ni Chang, how blessed you are!

Madam, you've misunderstood! We're just—

Don't say you both are just good friends!

Maybe you do think so

but Young Master Ouyang is definitely so affectionate to you.

If you claim that he doesn't care about you,

I surely wouldn't believe it.

Turn in early! I'm leaving.

♫ The lush greenery one by one falls with many sweet fragrance ♫

♫ From dawn till dusk, I think of you all the time ♫

♫ Rouge tears like rain fallling on wet spring soil ♫

♫ In the end, like the fruitless tree, I have no enlightenment ♫

That one... doesn't taste so bad.

Why don't you try?

According to what was recorded in the book, the medicines that I asked you to get,

- grind them into powder separately and put them in several boxes. - Okay.

I'll check on them later on.

Deeply miss you in the late autumn

Memory is erased

Do you need help with anything?

- You can help me grind this. - Sure.

♫ The words are very beautiful ♫

♫ I count the flowers bloom and fall just waiting for you ♫

♫ Countless injuries and pain can not stop me ♫

♫ If I gaze into your eyes and if love is so hard to remember ♫

- This is so hard. - You are too weak!

♫ If the real feeling is difficult to remember ♫

♫ I hide the long flower bloom in my heart ♫

♫ I count the flowers bloom and fall just waiting for you ♫

♫ Countless injuries and pain can not stop me ♫

Do you want to smell this?

What is it? A stone?

♫ If I gaze into your eyes and if love is so hard to remember ♫

Ni Chang, do you remember the Huatian I taught you before? (TN: A kind of floral decoration on the face of Han women in ancient times of 3 colors: red - most common, green and yellow)

A little more on the left, a bit more on left.

Ni Chang, you need to draw this stroke a bit to the left.

Don't move!

Really nice!

I drew it wrong.

The air is so fresh here.

Look at how beautiful it is!

- Tired? Want to sit down and rest? - Okay.

Don't move!

Didn't I embroider on this piece of silk for you?

Do you still keep it?

Of course, you personally made it for me.

How could I lose it?

Then you should put it away safely.

Oh right!

What is this?

This is my newly made balm ointment.

What do you think about this trip to Xi State?

I feel it so good.

that sometimes, I forgot my purpose of coming here.

Ni Chang, if you are willing to stay here forever,

and not going back to Fan Jing, you sure can.

It's very beautiful here

but it's still not my place.

I was also just testing your intention.

If you make up your mind, I definitely will accompany you.

No, no, I won't give it.

"Don't give it," do you?

Stop running!

Come back here!

Stop running!

Yuan Xiang! Yuan Xiang, Yuan Xiang.

Where have you been on this rainy day?

Yuan Xiang, I got...

a letter from Cheng Tian.

Uncle!

Okay, okay, you read it! I'll have my diner.

I don't need to read it. It's good to know that they are all safe.

Eat slowly! You just ran in...

Cheng Tian said in the letter that everything is well with Ni Chang.

They have learn a lot in Xi State and will be back at the end of the month.

The wounds on Ni Chang's face and hand have been completely healed.

Are they really coming back at the end of the month? That's great! That's very good!

I've been hoping and hoping. Finally, that has brought them back.

They also said that after they are back,

our shop will be able to reopen again.

Bodhisattva blessing! Bodhisattva blessing! Finally! We've waited until this day. Bodhisattva blessing! (TN: In Buddhism, a Bodhisattva is any person who is on the path owards Buddhahood and has received a confirmation.)

What else did he say?

He said "Hello" to you guys, and also...

What else then?

- Then no more. - What a conscientious thing!

Finally we got a letter but he didn't mention anything to our Yuan Xiang.

It's a blessing to him that our Yuan Xiang still talks about him every day.

Madam, let's not go into all these at this time.

Yuan Xiang, the letter will still be here. Let's finish our dinner! Let's eat!

I'm not hungry.

So heartbroken!

Yuan Xiang, you have impetuous and impatient temperament.

Don't get into trouble at home!

I don't look at you as you are so annoyingly and noisily following me around all day.

However, there is no you around now,

I suddenly feel life is so boring.

That Cheng Tian...

We were so nice to take him in, yet he treated you like this.

If he doesn't like you, he could just tell you directly.

He's stringing you along, yet he turns around and chases after Ni Chang.

Aunt, Cheng Tian isn't that kind of person.

Then what kind of person is he?

The way I see it,

we should just kick them out.

And Ni Chang too. We'll just live our lives by ourselves.

I'm sure we won't starve.

Aunt, you're talking in the fit of a pique agian.

Ni Chang is my best friend.

So is Cheng Tian.

When we were at the Yun Jin Academy, the three of us promised that we would stick together forever.

All right. I was just angry.

You're just so foolish. You believe everything.

All right, Aunt.

You didn't finish eating. Hurry and go eat.

Go, Aunt.

Then you should eat a bit too.

I'm not hungry. Go.

I'm fine. Look.

[Su Manor]

Hey.

Why are you sneaking around there?

Young Master, Young Miss told me to ask you

if you want to go and take a while in the backyard.

You haven't gone out in three days already.

Get out!

- You can leave. - Yes.

Why are you throwing a tantrum at a servant for no reason?

There's something I need to tell you.

Second Uncle has followed my advice regarding the shops in the south of the city.

He has taken them all back and handed them to me.

I'm planning to open a cosmetics shop and expand the business.

The shops in the south have always been for textiles business.

Why are you opening a cosmetics shop?

Second Uncle trusts me, so he's letting me do it.

I'll just have some fun with it.

This is the Su family's business.

If you want to play, go back and play with your Yan family.

Even Second Uncle supports me. It's no use even if you're against it.

Since you've given up on yourself now,

Second Uncle has already lost hope in you.

It was also his idea to hand the Su family's business to me.

The people in the Su family aren't all dead yet!

Who gives you, a Yan family member, the right to interfere?

Do you find it unfair? How long has it been since you last left the house?

Do you know how the weaving industry is in the capital?

Do you know how many businesses have their eyes on the Su family's business?

You just get drunk here every day! You wouldn't even know it when you get kicked out of your own house one day!

Miss Yan, you are way too naive

to think you can provoke me by doing this.

You're hopeless.

Su Wenyu, I was totally wrong about you.

I'll do it.

- It's ganoderma! Ganoderma! So big! - That big?

It can't be cheap. Definitely not cheap.

- What is that? - That's nothing exquisite.

- I'm hungry. Let's go and eat something. - What is that?

It's food. It's a roasted pancake. Why don't we go in and eat?

Get me one.

Just one piece!

- Sir, take a look. - Boss, how much is this?

Sir, you have a great eye.

- This is our best-selling item! - Is that so?

Take a look. Not only does it look great, it has a good meaning.

Many young men give one to the girls they like.

What are you saying? I'm just randomly buying it as a gift.

Sir, look. There's only one left now.

It proves you're fated to have this, so I'll sell it to you for cheaper! How does five coins sound?

Five coins?

That's too expensive! Never mind.

Thank you.

Come take a look!

- Sir, take a look. - Five coins it is.

You have great taste! I'll pack it up for you.

- Here you are. - Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Silly girl.

- You'll be so happy. You better thank me properly. - Come take a look!

Second Uncle.

Where did you go drinking again? How dare you come here to embarrass yourself?

Did you really give the shops in the south to Wenxiu?

I didn't give them to her. Our Su family is expanding our sales business.

I just gave her a few shops to test the waters.

The Su family has never touched the cosmetics business.

Isn't it a risk to act so recklessly? Plus, Wenxiu...

What about her?

Second Uncle, you can't hand the Su family's business to an outsider!

Do you think I want to?

All you do is get drunk every day! You're no different than a useless piece of trash!

I don't have any children. In this huge Su family,

who else can I depend on other than a piece of trash like you?

Second Uncle! You can't let Wenxiu take charge of the Su family's business.

This woman doesn't have a good heart. She'll bring trouble to Su family!

Shut up! You are the one harming Su family!

If you didn't cause so much trouble, would the Su family be in this situation?

If you had listened to me, and married Wen Xiu early on,

you two could have worked together to bring glory to us.

Even if I die, I would have no regrets.

I will definitely not marry her!

Then don't blame me for relying on an outsider!

You smell terrible. Get out!

Hmph.

Ni Chang.

What are you doing? You don't want these clothes?

I'm leaving these for Madam.

She's always saying how she admires the quality of Fan Jing's craftwork.

She says our fabric is thin and airy, great for work.

Once we return to Fan Jing, I'll keep finding business groups to bring her clothes.

We can finally go back after leaving for so long. I want to be home as soon as tomorrow.

If Yuan Xiang knew you wanted to return so badly, she'd be very happy.

What does me wanting to go home have to do with her?

You are in the wrong here.

You mention Yuan Xiang everyday in Xi Zhou.

Why aren't you willing to mention her in your letters?

Ho-How wasn't I willing to mention her?

I'm just worried she'll send more letters and talk nonstop.

You are just stubborn.

On the surface, you're always bullying Yuan Xiang,

but actually you care about her more than anyone.

I heard Madam say you bought a gift for Yuan Xiang today.

You're just double faced.

H-H-How did she know?

We are the only outsiders here. What news isn't known?

Cheng Tian

we've come all this way from Yun Jin Academy to Xi Zhou.

I have long thought of you as my brother.

If you really like Yuan Xiang,

then just accept it.

If you remain stubborn like this, you'll regret it one day.

Don't talk about me.

I've come to talk to you about something.

If you really want to be with that Prince Luo,

in the future be careful.

What's wrong?

I heard Xiao Lu say he keeps going to that singing abode these days.

He looks extremely happy too.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, that girl thinks too much of herself.

She sees us and immediately starts raising the price.

She really thinks she's something great.

Don't underestimate that place just because it's wild and festive.

Actually, everyone comes from poor backgrounds.

Don't be too picky with them about money.

Give her how ever much she wants.

But she can't just raise the price like that.

I've never taught you to be so stingy. Who did you learn from to become so selfish?

Tomorrow, go complete the task I've given you. Did you hear me?

Alright, alright. Tomorrow, I'll send the silvers to that Lady Ai Ta,

and beg her to show favor to you.

Your Highness, please go rest.

Ni Chang! Ni Chang!

I got the information! That girl is called Ai Ta.

It is said she is super beautiful.

Normally she is very arrogant and she never meets people easily.

It seems that the Prince must have paid much money.

The entire entertainment shop is in an uproar, saying there's a Sir Ou Yang from Fan Jing

who pays generously just to have a look at that Lady Ai Ta's appearance.

What sort of business is this?

I'm not trying to scold you, but it's fine that you don't like me. But you find someone like this?

Do you not feel sorry for me, or Yuan Xiang?

- What are you talking about? - You are not happy to listen to my criticism?

Leave!

I promised Yuan Xiang that I need to take good care of you! Are you listening?

Go back now!

Ni Chang, tell me beforehand.

You read until late last night, right?

You went to bed at midnight. I didn't wake you up this morning. Why don't sleep more?

It'll still be awhile before lunch. How about we go take a walk near the backside of the mountain?

Last time, you told me about that...

You told me about that White Grass Cream. I went back and thought about it.

Would changing Asian mugwort to holly make the cream mosquito resistant?

Why do Your Highness research this? Maybe you also want to open a balm shop in the Capital City?

I think you should research more important things.

What's wrong? Are you upset?

What's up? Who upset you? Me?

I don't dare.

What don't you dare to do? Tell me, how did I anger you?

So what if I'm angry?

Why don't you go drink with your beauties in the entertainment shop while it's still light outside.

Didn't you spend a large sum of money?

I did spend money.

I spent quite a lot.

Then congratulations, Your Highness.

If I haven't seen the beauty.

In addition, the person this beauty wants to see

is actually you.

Me?

Do you want to eat the sausage hanging in the yard?

- I don't dare. - Me, either.

We have arrived!

Rattle-drum!

Have a look!

Ou Yang of Fan Jing has brought a friend to visit.

Young Master Ouyang, Miss Ai Ta has been waiting for long time. Please come inside.

Come here, please.

What are you planning?

Miss Ai Ta,

You know why I drop by today. It's not early now. Let's start early now.

What on earth do you want to do?

I hear Miss also know how to embroider with two hands at the same time?

I practiced for a while

when I learnt the skills from my master in order to gain one more skill.

Really? My two hands can embroider

different patterns.

different patterns? How could that be?

Normally people can only focus on one thing.

Embroider different patterns with two hands. How can you do it?

I also got to know Miss Ai Ta's amazing skill recently.

Therefore I want you to check it out.

It's a very rare opportunity. You two can learn from each other by exchanging skills.

I'm not sure if I'm honoured enough to witness your unique skill?

Young Master Ouyang, could you excuse us?

I'm a man. Do you think will I learn to embroider from you?

Make sense. There are countless people wanting to learn.

Whether or not you have talent, will depend on your fortune.

Please, Young Master.

Sir Cheng Tian also wants to learn embroidery?

You have the face to say it. Isn't all because of you?

Ni Chang hasn't eaten or drank for so many days.

All she does is practice two handed embroidery without sleeping. What if she gets sick like this?

Ni Chang!

Ni Chang!

You've been with her for so many years.

You don't even know her characteristic?

She just got to see a new skill.

If she can't figure it out, is she real Ni Chang?

But what she can do is enough! She doesn't fall short of this one!

We need to go back to the Capital City. Must she be so hardworking?

Multi-skills are not pressure. The more she learns, the earlier it will be to make a living in the future.

She got to know this when she was young. But you still don't understand.

No wonder your vision can't match hers.

You...

I don't have a vision? Your Xiao Lu is even worse than me.

You haven't finished practicing? Have some soup/

Miss Ai Ta is very talented.

But how can I learn this casually?

I have confidence in you. You will master this skill for sure!

Two handed embroidery prioritizes doing two things at once.

But the instinct of human is to be focused on one thing.

If I want to fix this, it won't be easy.

There is nothing hard in this world for a motivated person. How about this?

Raise your right hand into the air. You can write anything you want.

Place your left hand on my chest,

and write a character.

[Dog]

Why did you write dog?

You guessed it?

I want you to write heart.

Why?

“Your blue collar is deeply imprinted in my mind."*(Chinese poem speaking of longing for the talented)

As for your right hand, you can write anything you want.

A phrase is fine too. Begin.

Again.

♫ I want to ask the distant moon ♫

Wrong.

♫ Wearing rainbow colored clothes, dancing under the falling flowers, and accompanying me through the years ♫

♫ In this world, the wind and the snow are cold, the fireworks are fragrant ♫ ♫ You have always been there by my side ♫

♫ Staying with me to admire the endless river of stars ♫

-I got it! -You got it.

Good! Then now tell me what you wrote with your right hand.

♫ That would be all right as I can forgive all the hurt ♫

I'm not telling you.

Not telling you!

How can you act so shamelessly. Hurry and tell me what you wrote.

Guess!

♫ Protect my little light so it doesn't drift during the whirlwind ♫

You wrote...Steamed Bun?

How did you know?

You wrote a "heart" on my chest,

so we are of one heart. Of course I know

what you are thinking.

You are thinking of...me.

♫ Even with the onslaught of time and hardships caught on the corners of our eyes ♫

Box these all up.

Be careful.

Sir Jiang, thank you for your hospitality these few days.

In the future, if given the chance, we must reunite in the Central Plains.

Thank you for your kind words.

I hope...I can have that day.

You definitely will, Master. I will wait for you two in Fan Jing.

It's getting late. We'll be going on our way.

Wait.

Ni Chang, I still have a few things to say to you.

When do you and Sir Ou Yang plan to get married?

What are you embarrassed for? I've been observing you two these few days.

You and Sir Ou Yang feel the same way.

Why can't you get married if you both like each other?

Madam...

Let me tell you, you have to hold on to a good man.

Don't say anymore.

Ok, ok. I'll stop joking with you.

However, I will be waiting for your good news.

Ni Chang,

this is my gift to you.

Just as a farewell memento.

Master, this is too precious. I can't accept it.

I am giving it to you, so hold onto it.

Your Master's wish of bringing Aromatic Herb Hall back to the Central Plains

will be up to you. Don't let us down.

Master, Madam, please be reassured. I will remember.

In the future, if you have any needs, just write me a letter.

Or let the business groups send a message here.

You and I are master and disciple. Never forget about this relationship.

And don't fail our sentiments either.

Madam, take good care of Master and of yourself.

I will definitely come back to visit.

Go on then.

Let's go.

Come look at some dried fruits.

We're finally going back.

Take care!

What have you called me here for? Speak.

Since we are brother and sister of the same Master,

this is my final advice to you.

Just go back to Huai Zhou.

Stop causing trouble in Su family.

Am I the one causing trouble, or are you the one causing trouble?

You are cowardly, yet are you blaming me for stealing your glory?

I am not blaming you for stealing some so called glory.

However, you shouldn't have gotten involved in so many things!

You shouldn't have undertaken Su family's business behind my back!

We've never done any rouge or makeup business.

We don't know how complex this business is!

But Second Uncle believes in me.

Not you. What can you do about it?

Tomorrow morning, I will send you back to Yan family.

I will not marry you, or allow you

to appear in front of others with the Su family name

and run my Su family's business!

Second Master!

Bad news, Second Master!

What are you so shaken about?

The Young Miss has disappeared.

What? Disappeared?

Go find her!

Hurry and go find her! Hurry, hurry!

Second Master, the things in her room aren't touched. It doesn't seem like she left.

I think...could she have been kidnapped?

Nonsense!

Our doors are closed tightly. How could a person be kidnapped?

Steward Xiao.

Send some people along the river and market

to search for her!

Yes, sir.

You! You-you all, hurry and go find Young Miss!

Hurry!

Bastard!

Master...

What are you standing there for? Hurry and open it!

Who?

Young Master!

Open it!

Young Miss!

You've brought so much shame to the Su family!

I don't know what's going on!

Bastard! Bastard! I'll kill you! Kill you!

-Second Uncle! Stop! -I'll kill you! Kill you!

Stop!

Second Uncle!

I'm an innocent lady, yet I spent the night in my step-brother's room.

I have been shamed! I have no face to see anyone!

Please uphold justice for me, Second Uncle! Or else I can only die.

-Yan Wen Xiu! -I only locked you inside the room!

I didn't do anything to you? Why are you speaking nonsense?

You bastard!

You ruined our reputation, yet you have the face to deny it?

I'll kill you once and for all!

-Second Master! Please stop! -Second Uncle!

You all forced me! You forced me to leave Ni Chang,

forced me to marry Yan Wen Xiu...Are you trying to force me to death?

Su Wen Yu!

You ruined Wen Xiang's reputation. Today, no matter if you're willing or not

I will decide!

This is Su family's Young Mistress, and you, Su Wei Yu's wife!

No!

I definitely don't agree! And I definitely will not marry her!

That's not up to you!

Steward Xiao!

Go write my order, and have Huai Zhou's Yan family send a betrothal gift!

You dare?

Second Uncle,

today I respect you as a senior

because I value that we are both of Su family blood.

Yet if you continue to be stubborn, don't blame me for ignoring our ties.

If you make me upset, I'll reveal all the dirty things you've done.

No one will have a good time! You should think about clearly!

Young Master!

Second Master!

Second Uncle!

-Second Uncle! -Go find a doctor!

Someone come!

Second Uncle!

♫ Dark clouds covered the moon and flowers turned into blood ♫

♫ Departures never end in life ♫

♫ I hope to end your tears, make you smile, and be daring without guilt ♫

♫ To see you again ♫

♫ How long must I gaze at the starlight, how many absurd things must I do? ♫

♫ So that my whole life will be passionate ♫

♫ To handle the impermanence, how far must I look into the distance? ♫

♫ To be able to stay by your side ♫

♫ My only wish is to live my life with my love ♫

♫ Even if the fireworks scatter in the end ♫

♫ I'll never regret the long suffering ♫

♫ How much more courage must I have, to walk toward you? ♫

♫ My only wish is to live my life up to your fate ♫

♫ And never let down the little light you left me ♫

♫ Just like the misty rain and haze in Jiangnan ♫
