[Episode 15]

14

Mother.

15

I promised you that I would marry Yi Liankai.

16

I thought I was dead.

17

I couldn't tell happiness from sadness.

18

But I didn't expect...

19

...Yi Liankai is this kind of person.

20

I didn't expect that Yi Wangping will return.

21

I dragged two men into danger.

22

If I give up, would you blame me?

23

Young marshall.

24

You leave.

25

Have you gotten used to living here?

26

It's much better than my place when I was living in school.

27

That's good.

28

Third brother has been taking over business.

29

There will be lots of work, for his subordinate.

30

Third young master has been very kind to me.

31

I can handle the work.

32

You're really the best student in your academy.

33

You've lived up to your reputation.

34

However I did well in school, it was all book and no practice.

35

Unlike your real battles out there.

36

Looks like you are a good student.

37

Even your pen is special.

38

Good eyes. This pen...

39

...has some history.

40

What history?

41

This is a pen from my academy. It's specially made for students with the best grades.

42

This pen is very special for me.

43

So I have always carried it with me.

44

Is that so?

45

If you like, I can ask my friend to buy you a few.

46

No need for that. It was just I've never seen it and I was curious. That's all.

47

Hello Miss Deng.

48

My surname is Fan. Miss Sun recommended me.

49

Hello Miss Fan. She told me that you're her good friend.

50

So don't be so courteous.

51

You're apparently a modern woman baptised by western thoughts.

52

A few days ago I was discussing living abroad with Miss Sun,

53

and you're the first one that came to her mind.

54

She said I must visit you.

55

Now I've met you. You're everything she said.

56

She was exaggerating.

57

I just studied a few years in America.

58

If you want to hear some foreign anecdotes, I have a lot.

59

When I was young I lived in Europe with my husband.

60

I had a good time there.

61

I'm here to ask about going abroad these days.

62

Which country did you go to?

63

I have lived in France for a few years.

64

I see.

65

These few years, the world has changed a lot.

66

Take Europe for example, people haven't fully recovered from the war.

67

People in many countries are depressed.

68

America has gained much in the war.

69

In military, politics, science, culture,

70

everything has been very vital in America.

71

If you want to go abroad, do you want to settle down or just travel?

72

I'm just uncomfortable at home and want to get away.

73

I see.

74

No matter how pretty a cage is, it's still a cage.

75

Old family traditions have repressed women so much.

76

Even though women can live a comfortable life there, but she has to rely on others.

77

Slowly she will lose her talent.

78

You've been to Europe and tasted the free air.

79

It must be more difficult for you.

80

That is exactly how I feel.

81

If you can make it work, you can really make a difference outside.

82

I am willing to help you.

83

Second mistress. It's so hot today.

84

Second master asked us to make green bean soup since he hasn't seen you.

85

Now it's just waiting for you in the kitchen.

86

Where's the chief marshall?

87

He's inside.

88

Father.

89

Yanyun. What's up?

90

Father. I want to ask you for something.

91

I want to go abroad, or go back to university to teach.

92

You want to leave Yi family after all.

93

I thought you would blame me.

94

Yanyun. You're Mr. Fan's daughter.

95

I saw you grow up.

96

How can I not know what you're thinking?

97

Since I know it, how could I blame you?

98

Yanyun. Since you call me father,

99

I am not Marshall Yi today.

100

I am some old man who knows his place.

101

You're not the second mistress of Yi family either.

102

You're my daughter. We have a father daughter conversation.

103

Mr. Fan has placed himself in a chess match all his life.

104

This chess match looks vibrant.

105

There are always some chess pieces that are out of our control.

106

This family gets to maintain its calm on the surface because of your sacrifice.

107

Now if you leave,

108

this family would fall apart.

109

Father, you know about that.

110

Shortly after you married Lianshen,

111

you were in such a hurry to help your father start school.

112

Lianshen was in the army. You were busy with school business.

113

You two spent more time apart than together.

114

You never complained.

115

Other people said you were so reasonable.

116

But for me, no matter how dumb I was,

117

I could see that was just your excuse.

118

You just don't like him.

119

You just tried to get away from him.

120

Our whole family is sorry to you.

121

Liankai is blind.

122

He owed you your love.

123

But child, we're already here.

124

Now I'm begging you,

125

stay for one more year.

126

Just one year.

127

Look at Lianshen carefully.

128

See if he's worth it.

129

If you still want to leave then,

130

I promise you I will arrange it myself.

131

I will send you to France to start over.

132

Father. Do you think it's good to continue this way?

133

I had lots of women in my life.

134

They all seem different.

135

But if you've seen enough,

136

you would know what they are thinking.

137

Love is like making wine.

138

Rice and water had nothing to do with each other first.

139

But after time, it will make good wine.

140

What's importance is patience.

141

If something got in the water with the rice,

142

all mixed up...

143

...this wine would become vinegar.

144

Third brother wasn't here before.

145

Even though there's something mixed up in the wine, it wouldn't matter over time.

146

Now they see each other every day.

147

Some emotions will get out again.

148

How can emotions sink?

149

How about this?

150

We need to make Liankai leave for a while.

151

You summon the two.

152

Tell them I want to talk about something.

153

Third young master.

154

Umm...

155

Father. You want to talk to me?

156

Sit down.

157

I summoned you here today...

158

...for Mr. Fan's funeral. Even though it's over,

159

but some problems that surfaced from the funeral...

160

are not over.

161

What you mean is...

162

...the killer is still a Tian Meng Association member?

163

These two things, with you...

164

are one thing. You go look into it.

165

If there's any result, just let me know.

166

Yes.

167

Now there's a minor thing...

168

that needs some attention.

169

The first political advisor getting killed.

170

What the world can see is mostly how we value courtesy and friendship.

171

Some people see a sick family.

172

When Yanyun is finishing up the funeral ritual,

173

who do you think is the most suitable person to do it?

174

It must be the Cheng family's imperial exam champion in Yong Nan.

175

I almost asked him that day.

176

Why didn't you go?

177

He said he was sick. Didn't agree to it.

178

Saying he's sick?

179

He's talented and graceful. Has great reputation.

180

He's always on good terms with our family.

181

When Yanyun wanted to do the ritual of finishing the dot on the memory hall stone, she wasn't being difficult.

182

The old champion is the perfect candidate.

183

His trip would make him look good and gain benefit.

184

He didn't even show up for it.

185

Father, he is respectable.

186

But now with how things change,

187

it's unknown how many people will buy it.

188

He resigned from the government and started business,

189

and he's now a leader in business.

190

He's got money and rice bags in his hands.

191

If he doesn't come here, everyone will think we split up.

192

That we lost our financial support.

193

Fighting in war, governing local places,

194

will all lose the foundation.

195

So, his sickness...

196

...is also our family's sickness.

197

This sickness is not serious, but if you don't treat it, it would kill us.

198

Since he's sick, we should go visit him.

199

He's right. I'm already suspended. How about...

200

...I go to Yongnan?

201

Your father just left. You should spend more time with Yanyun.

202

These few years you haven't spent much time together.

203

This time you're back, there's a chance to fix it.

204

These few years,

205

Liankai has got good connections in business world.

206

Let him go.

207

Yes. I follow your instruction.

208

Sang'er. Look who's here.

209

Sang'er.

210

My big lawyer. How do you find time to see me, an old fashioned woman?

211

How do I rescue you if I don't come?

212

Mama Zhu, bring us some green bean soup.

213

Ok.

214

Look at how hot you are.

215

You look more and more like a little wife.

216

Sit.

217

What are you reading?

218

Just for fun.

219

Sang'er. I need to ask you something.

220

Is the surname of your second sister in law Fan?

221

- Yes. - That's right.

222

A few days she came to see me and said she wanted to go overseas.

223

Do you know that?

224

I don't know. She's probably upset about her father,

225

and wants to get away for a while.

226

Doesn't look like it. She's looks like she's got a lot hidden inside.

227

She's lived overseas after all.

228

Only those would have the courage to break free from this big prison.

229

Yulin,

230

maybe one day I will do the same.

231

Haven't done this in years.

232

Children don't travel far when their parents are still alive.

233

I have been at fault. Haven't been around taking care of you.

234

You have your own choice.

235

I know these years you've suffered a lot.

236

I didn't. I understand,

237

as long as our family is good, I am good.

238

If family's not ok, I will be like a kite that lost its strings.

239

I can't fly without support.

240

- Sit. - Yes.

241

Back then I brought you all to the river.

242

Your eldest brother was only a few years old.

243

He already knew how to arrange personnel and take care of everything.

244

Lianshen just followed me everywhere.

245

When the water is deep or dangerous,

246

the servants were afraid he might get hurt,

247

and always tried to help him.

248

He did not even blink.

249

Second brother has always been exceptionally brave.

250

Beans make people fat, and eating elm leaves make people sleepy.

251

People can't change who they are.

252

Even though your eldest brother has physical problems, his talent has not gone to waste.

253

Lianshen has been taking army power these years.

254

He's been following my old path.

255

They are good at arts and war respectively.

256

They made our family pround. It's your blessing.

257

Do you still remember...

258

...what you were doing at the time?

259

I was naughty when I was little.

260

I must be somewhere fooling around.

261

If you were only naughty, that would be a blessing too.

262

They all say you're my favorite.

263

I always wanted to keep you by my side.

264

But you would be gone when I didn't notice.

265

They looked all over the place for you.

266

You caught fish from somewhere.

267

You were roasting the fish on the river bank.

268

When we got back to the bank,

269

the smell of the fish is spreading around.

270

Father, what makes you think of these old things?

271

When Confucious comments on Zhong Gong, he said,

272

Field cows' sons have red hair and neat horns.

273

Even though people don't use them, the god of mountains and rivers wouldn't abandon them.

274

The human nature is destined.

275

You can't avoid many things.

276

Everything is the same way.

277

The world looks at us like a big family.

278

They thought we are made out of iron and steel.

279

But how can they see...

280

...the gap inside?

281

These gaps would cause disasters some day.

282

Father, I couldn't be around to share your burden these years.

283

It was my fault.

284

I am old.

285

My health is getting worse.

286

You should help me walk more paths in the future.

287

Father, what do you want me to do?

288

I will do my best.

289

The old champion's birthday is coming up.

290

There will be many guests with their own agendas.

291

It doesn't matter what their agendas are.

292

The old champion's thoughts matter the most.

293

I understand.

294

If he gets other ideas,

295

you know what to do.

296

Miss Deng has left?

297

Yes. Just walked her out.

298

It's good that she can come here often and keep you company.

299

Yulin said the second sister in law wants to go abroad.

300

She's a strong woman with her own ideas.

301

Lan Po. I dragged you into this mess.

302

If you still have feelings for the second sister in law, I will give you my blessing.

303

Qin Sang,

304

I really want to know, what your heart is made of.

305

I thought Liankai was going to Yongnan?

306

Why are you going now?

307

We are not going to Yongnan.

308

We?

309

Yes. We.

310

I've been in the army these few years. I can't help it.

311

I did have time to keep you company.

312

Now that father suspended me and basically gave me a holiday.

313

That gives me a lot of time.

314

Don't you want to start a school?

315

I'll go with you.

316

You can't do that.

317

Now the situation is so tense. You can't just leave.

318

Why can't I just leave?

319

If big brother didn't get injured, I wouldn't be the young marshall in the first place.

320

If that didn't happen, my life wouldn't end up like this.

321

Yanyun. In my heart, I just want to be with you every day.

322

Take walks in places you like,

323

and look at the views you like.

324

If some day, you fall in love with a place,

325

and you get tired, we would stop.

326

Smelling flowers. Get lost in nature.

327

As long as you're happy,

328

I won't ask for anything else.

329

Oh right. We have to have a few babies.

330

They would be as naughty and cute as when you were little.

331

We would live happily ever after as a family. Isn't that good?

332

I can't believe that's how you think.

333

Of course that's how I think.

334

And this has always been how I really feel.

335

Think about it. Ever since we were small, big brother has recognised as the promising one.

336

My father loves Liankai the most.

337

Being the second son, I should be the most laid back one.

338

When we were kids, you were always acting out and causing trouble.

339

I was afraid you would hurt yourself.

340

So I was always mean to you.

341

That probably made you scared of me.

342

Then I thought, let it be,

343

just let her play.

344

I will take responsibility no matter how much trouble you cause.

345

Wait.

346

You try it.

347

Try!

348

Yunxi. I will not go.

349

What do you want, Miss Min?

350

Third young master, I heard you're going to Yongnan. Would you take me with you?

351

Yes. I almost forgot you're from Yongnan.

352

You can go back anytime. Why does it have to be with me?

353

I have mixed feelings about my hometown. I come from a low-class family.

354

If I go back, people in my hometown will look down on me.

355

If you come with me, that would be different.

356

So you still have some unfinished love story back in your hometown?

357

Is there anything in the world that's completely separate from the word love?

358

That's true.

359

Is it any good?

360

I didn't expect someone as dull as you would read love stories.

361

Who told you dull people don't know romance?

362

What are you doing here during the day, instead of going out or business?

363

Life is already so dull.

364

How about we go to Yongnan together?

365

Why?

366

I went there with my mother as a kid. The flower field there is so beautiful.

367

When the famous Chen family's artist sewed that tapestry for my mother, she was sitting in that flower field.

368

I wonder if that flower field is still there or not.

369

Young mistress.

370

Don't call me young mistress.

371

Xiao Sang.

372

I want to ask you one question.

373

You can choose not to answer.

374

As long as you ask, I will tell you everything.

375

If the flower field back then is still there today,

376

would you still be willing to wait?

377

I will wait, till you come.

378

Ok. Now we have a chance.

379

Do you dare come with me?

380

Xiao Sang. Yi Liankai is too smart. We should plan carefully.

381

If you dare, you will go to Yongnan.

382

And go fly a kite in the flower field in front of that old champion's house.

383

If I see the kite, I will go find you.

384

Father.

385

What's wrong?

386

I want to recommend someone to you.

387

Why recommend?

388

This person is brave enough to die.

389

His name is Pan Jianchi.

390

He graduated with the best grades from the military academy school in Japan.

391

He knows war strategies and has excellent gun skills.

392

When I was kidnapped,

393

he saved me.

394

Pan Jianchi?

395

The Tian Meng Association member you asked Gao Peide to rescue?

396

Yes.

397

I need people. You know that.

398

But we need to think twice about who we use.

399

You bring him over.

400

I'll take a good look then decide.

401

Yes.

402

General Marshall!

403

My third son is usually unorganized.

404

Remember to recommend someone to me

405

Mr. Pan, you are the first.

406

The Third Young Master is very kind.

407

Changye has been surounded by Li Zhongnian, how do I solve this problem?

408

No need to solve it.

409

Why?

410

This map was something developed by Tian Meng Association 5 years ago.

411

Today naturally there is no danger.

412

Look like you are someone who knows how to read military movements and knows his history.

413

But to be able to predict the future, that is true skill.

414

I can't predict the future, but I know the present.

415

But by knowing the present, I can almsot see the future.

416

Interesting.

417

Then let me ask you,

418

How to eliminate Li Zhongnian?

419

You can get rid of Li Zhongnian anytime you want. You purposefully keep him.

420

Why do you say that?

421

There are five region in Jiangzhou province. Li Zhongnian has one, and use it to fight the other four.

422

He can't win, if you try to fight.

423

You don't get rid of him not because he is too strong, but because you are too powerful.

424

You keep him as an excuse.

425

This way you look preoccupied with Jiangzhou, and too busy to look to the rest of the country.

426

Mr. Pan, do you the know the consequence of what you are saying?

427

If it was half an year ago, and I said it in front of you.

428

I might be dead already.

429

But today I can say it freely.

430

Why?

431

Mr. Fan is dead, you need a new strategist.

432

Since I could remember,

433

Father sent me to military school.

434

In my memory, I haven't been home this long ever.

435

Since I was young, I have never thought this,

436

Yanyun did you know, I always looked up to father.

437

I always dreamed about being a hero like him.

438

I know.

439

Then do you know what was my second dream?

440

To have you as my wife.

441

Haven't we been wed for a really long time?

442

True, we have been married for a while.

443

But, I always thought,

444

Only after I inherite my father's position

445

and become a hero like him, I would be able to marry you.

446

When I was little, I liked to watch you in secret,

447

If there is something delicious to eat or a fun game,

448

I always save them for you.

449

Even it was things a girl wouldn't have any interests in.

450

Then I was in the army

451

If it goes on like this, there will definitely be a day

452

When I become the hero of the whole province.

453

If the enemy have their knives at my throat,

454

or their gun is aimed at my head, I wouldn't be afraid.

455

But if they used you to threaten me,

456

I would definitely admit defeat.

457

Anyways, I just want

458

To give everything I earned wtih my life to to you.

459

So Yanyun, I hope,

460

You can support me. Okay?

461

Qin Sang, I have good news for you.

462

Mr. Pan is going to be helping out father greatly.

463

Really?

464

Really. Based on what I know about father,

465

Mr. Pan will definitely be favored.

466

Thank you Third Young Master for your support.

467

Congratulations Mr. Pan.

468

Mr. Pan is intelligent and brave, being favored by the Marshall is to be expected.

469

It is easier being smart than brave,

470

So Mr. Pan with your guts, anything is possible.

471

Mr. Pan success in your career,

472

will be any days now.

473

Thank you Third Young Master!

474

Lan Po, I am tired. I am going back first.

475

I will go back with you.

476

Mr. Pan, good bye.

477

We have a chance now. Are you brave enough to leave with me?

478

If you are willing, then come to Yongnan.

479

Fly a kite in front of the farm.

480

Once I see the kite,

481

I will go find you.

482

I have a headache, you can go back first.

483

Okay, sleep well.

484

What are you doing?

485

I just want to try if I kiss here,

486

Will your headache go away.

487

These romantic words, you should tell someone who wants to hear them.

488

I just want to say them to you.

489

Not only say them, I want to try them.

490

If I kiss your eyes,

491

Will you stop crying?

492

Go to bed early, we will go to Yongnan in a few days.

493

Miss Sang, you have a white hair. I can pluck it for you.

494

No need.

495

The hair on my head will go white when I am worried.

496

I dont' know what makes your hair go white,

497

But I know your age,

498

You should think about having a child.

499

Stop saying depressing things.

500

Being hurt emotionally is a rich person's sickness.

501

You should be kinder to yourself,

502

then you can get along better with young master.

503

Zhu ma, I don't want to heard about him from you.

504

How can I not mention him? He is your husband.

505

In my eyes, this time he is taking you to Yongnan is a good oppurtunity.

506

You can spend some romantic time together. Get a baby when you come back.

507

Sang-er you should make sure to use this oppurtunity.

508

That is enough.

509

When you mom died, I promise to take care of you for her.

510

You have been married for so long now. If you don't get a child soon, people are going to talk.

511

Believe me for once. Like I am speaking for your dead mother.

512

Have a child. So young master spend sometime at home.
