Subbing and Timing brought to you by the Ancient Modern Chef Team @Viki

♫ Pushing open the windows and looking out, the scenery is breathtaking ♫

♫ The beauty of the spring flower is unforgettable ♫

♫ Lush and ruthless, but always fascinating ♫

♫ Getting drunk alone, I temporarily forget your scent ♫

♫ Beside the broken bridge, loneliness hid under the rocks ♫

♫ The liveliness belongs to the passerbys ♫

♫ Drowning my sorrows with wine, the prosperity can't hide the sorrow ♫

♫ I'm left with the deep feelings alone, missing you with nothing to rely on ♫

♫ I don't wish to admit that this was just a dream ♫

♫ I don't want to see the separation, everything for naught ♫

♫ Past midnight, I allow the sound of the flute to ponder upon the past ♫

♫ I'm drunk tonight, hugging the shadow to sleep ♫

[Episode 6]

Save me...

Save me! Save me!

Don't come near me! Don't come near me!

Help me! Help me!

Why didn't you tell me you were taking a bath?!

Snake! There's a snake!

Stop lying to me!

♫ Wind blowing and flowers falling, flowers leaning against the wind ♫

♫ Like the delay of our farewell ♫

♫ One chord one candle one sprig one leaf all remind me of you ♫

♫ The good bye is too long to say ♫

♫ You are still in my heart ♫

Are you all right?

Snake?

I already threw it out the window.

Husband, you're the best.

You are much better than any fresh meat. (T/N: slang for "young handsome boys").

Wait, don't let go!

I was scared out of my wits. I can't stand on my legs.

Don't leave right away.

What's the matter now?

I'm still scared.

I thought you weren't afraid of either the sky or the earth? (means fearless)

What's scary about the sky or the earth? They won't bite me.

Black Wind's snakes aren't poisonous.

If you don't bother them, they won't try and bite you.

I didn't bother you either,

but you still bit me like a snake.

Just wait until I fall asleep before you leave.

How can you fall asleep with your eyes open?

I am just afraid that if I close my eyes, you will leave.

Do I look like someone who doesn't keep his word?

You do!

- What are you doing? - Now you won't be able to leave.

One, two, three, I'm going to sleep!

Stupid Donkey, do you still remember the TV drama I told you about?

I don't remember.

You are my husband.

You have to love me, cherish me,

spoil me, treat me like a princess, and care for me.

And give your everything for me.

This way, the female audience will like you.

♫ A lifelong dream slowly becoming true ♫

In this world, how could there be a woman like you?

Child, sleep...

Madame Jiang. Madame Jiang. They are almost here.

We should leave quickly.

Madame Jiang!

- You are all evil! Don't come near me! - Madame!

Madame!

- Madame! - Don't take my child!

- Madame, calm down. - Don't take my child!

- Doctor Dong. - No!

Eldest Master, Madame Jiang's mind is still unclear.

I really can't do anything more for her.

She has always been like that.

Her body is in good condition, but her mind is not easy to cure.

Thank you for your efforts.

Money is not a problem. Just give me a number.

Thank you, Master Bai. Then I will first take Madame Jiang back.

Fine.

Madame... Madame, Madame.

- Let's leave first, okay? - Don't come near me.

You...

- Madame, Madame, let's go first. - Don't come near me! Let me go!

Let go!

A noble man should not eavesdrop.

I never said that I was a noble person

and I didn't mean to eavesdrop.

You are finally willing to speak with me.

Madame Jiang really does look a bit dazed and confused.

On this earth, it is hard to be confused and unknowing.

Being a bit confused may not be a bad thing.

Master Bai, you are clever and have great abilities. And you always stab your brother in the back.

Of course, you would like to see other people confused.

If you really think that way about me, why are you still staying here?

I want to stay behind and see

that if I get killed by Ye Binghuai, what will happen to my wife?

Your body's wounds have healed, but your grudges are much harder to remove. But it's understandable.

Indeed, I want to let some of this steam out.

As long as it makes you happy, Third Brother.

My daughter!

You were already born a beauty. Ever since you married Vice Minister Wei's son,

all the jewelry makes you even more radiant!

That's all thanks to my mother, planning everything for me.

Speaking of that. This is all really thanks to your husband, Liujiang.

If it was not for him bribing the bandits

and asking them to kidnap that stupid Ye Jinxuan,

right now she would have been the person married to him!

Mother, don't even mention that stupid girl. When you mention her it really angers me.

All she knows how to do is make a fire, cook, clean, and pour water. She looks like a servant helper.

Even Father doesn't want to look at her!

I know!

This girl has been kidnapped into a bandits' camp and lost her pureness.

How can she bear to continue living? Why doesn't she just commit suicide?

- I really don't know if her dead mother even properly taught her! - That's right!

Daughter, you don't know about this. In the past, her dead mother's position was superior to mine.

She was so cruel to me!

I will never forget about it!

The gods really take care of us.

Now his daughter is in our hands,

I'll stomp on her until she dies!

Stomp on her! Mother, don't be upset over that dead person.

If your health is compromised because of being angry over her, I'll be sad.

My daughter Rong'er is so thoughtful.

And my mother is the most beautiful!

Rong'er, what is this?

This is a special homecoming gift I brought back just for you.

Thank you, Rong'er.

Open it quickly!

You lit the lights so brightly,

how can we do "that" later?

I feel that the entire household has been a little messy lately.

Let's be a little more careful.

What's there to be scared of? I'll shoulder the sky if it falls.

Husband, you're too handsome.

With the glow of the flames contouring your face,

you look even prettier.

What do you mean, Wei Liujiang?

Without the glow, I don't look good? Is that what you mean?

Between Ye Jinxuan and me, who's better looking?

How can she be compared to you?

She doesn't even deserve to drink the water that you use to wash your feet.

My husband is the best at sweet talk.

Wife, do you know much money I used to get her to be kidnapped by the Black Wind Fortress?

It was all for you.

Someone is here!

- There's no one here. - There really is.

It's after midnight, who do you want to be here?

Husband.

It's just the wind. What are you scared of?

The windows are all shut. Where did the wind come from?

D-Don't be afraid, my wife.

- Husband... - I'm here.

Go see if that window is really closed. Hurry and close it.

Go quickly

Wife, save me!

It's none of my business! Kill him, not me!

Wife you--

I'm so hungry. Can I eat his hand?

Yes, go right ahead.

Help yourself!

I have a hand here,

I'll let you eat it.

Eldest Brother, why did you toss the skull so early?

I have two more lines that I have not spoken yet.

It's because your acting is lousy and your lines are too naggy.

There's an assassin!

I'll distract them

There's an alley over there and a red door. We'll meet there.

Quickly go!

- Stop there. - Come this way!

Stop there!

Let's chase him!

If you're thirsty and want a drink, just tell me. Why snatch mine?

I've been in the Jianghu realm for so long. I've been chased after by officials and thieves,

but I've never been chased after by dogs.

It was just a few dogs, how can they be your match?

I only want to know, what were your thoughts when you opened the door?

How do you feel then, after drinking the medicine that I've placed in your cup.

- What medicine? - Antidote.

- What poison does it cure? - The heart poison between the two of us.

I framed you once and you pranked me once, let's call it quits.

If you want to repay me tonight, I'll not retaliate.

What a rare chance. I have to cherish it well.

Eldest Brother, good skills.

Same to you.

You turned Ye Binghuai's house into a mess.

I don't think it was just to vent your frustrations.

I know you're helping me.

You think too much.

The Ye family bullied my wife.

I did it because of her, not you.

Ye Jinxuan is someone that I used just to test you.

Instead, you developed true feelings for her.

As the saying goes, alcohol can clear all grudges. Let's start over again.

If it has never ended, how can we re-start?

Drink wine.

After you.

No! I can't stay here a minute longer!

Son-in-law, you see...

This is the period where you're supposed to come back to the wife's house after getting married. (Chinese custom)

How can you not stay here?

Then again, if this gets out, I'll be embarrassed.

Is that important? What about my life?

Aren't you all right now?

Look at this. How am I all right?

If the assassins had chopped my head off last night,

you wouldn't be spared, either.

If my father knows, he'll skin you alive. Draft me the divorce papers now!

Husband, don't...

Yes, what happened last night was my fault.

I promise that this will not happen in the future.

I hope you can praise me in front of Vice Minister Wei.

Liujiang, you two are a family now.

- We don't differentiate ourselves as two families. - Yes, yes.

I've prepared awesome wedding presents for the both of you.

Jinrong, bring your husband and let's go take a look at the gifts.

- Let's go. - Let's go, husband.

Don't grab me! I'm not done talking yet. You just wait!

Let's go.

Your Excellency, someone sent you a letter.

- Who sent it? - I'm not sure.

Please have a cup of tea.

Since you're not willing to have tea here,

I must not have done well.

Since Young Sir Wei brought your second daughter back to stay after their wedding,

why don't I bring your first daughter back in a few days?

I'll follow the Chinese customs and make it a grand event.

You dare to do that?

I dare to toast this cup of tea as your son-in-law, but you are not willing to drink it.

At worst, I'll just destroy the Black Wind Fortress and make them lose all their power in Nan'an City.

If Vice Minister Wei hears about the swapping of the brides...

You came here because of this matter?

Your Excellency is wise.

Yongcui Pavilion belonged to the Black Wind Fortress originally, but ever since the pearl case, it has been in your hands.

So I want to ask you when you can return it.

Yongcui Pavilion is so complicated.

It was a poisonous lump in the city,

so I confiscated it

and changed it into a vegetarian place to benefit the masses.

I heard that your aim is 30,000 taels of silver per year.

What's the progress now?

What audacity! What 30,000 taels of silver?

I'm always fair and uncorrupted. Don't malign me!

I wouldn't dare. Every since Yongcui Pavilion opened, business has been extremely good.

It's a fatty piece of meat.

Since it's in your hands now, my Master Bai is unhappy.

It just so happens that Young Sir Wei is at your house now.

Are you threatening me?

Peace is the main priority. If you want to get rich, there are easier methods.

You can just be in charge of receiving the money.

What do you mean?

I want you to let me manage Yongcui Pavillion.

I'll give you 30% of the profits.

I'll give you about this amount.

Per year?

Per month.

As much as that?

I know you're not lacking for money.

But you're a high ranking official after all.

You have so many things on your hands.

Looks like I won't be able to drink tea as your son-in-law today.

But seeing that I'm a person you can use,

you can drink this tea. We'll then get what we both want.

Not only you can get rich,

I can assure that the Ye family is safe and there will be no ghosts ever again.

Go ahead.

You made so many dishes again?

Isn't this an expression of how nice I am to you.

I'm not an insensible person.

Here, this is for you.

What is this?

Look at how weirdly you're dressed every day.

From tomorrow onward, you are to wear what I buy for you.

This is fashion, don't you know? No, you don't.

You'll gradually get used to the fashion trend of the Black Wind Fortress.

Up to you.

But I still have to thank you

Look, dating requires tricks.

Buying and buying is the correct way to do it.

You're always saying the strangest things every day.

Sometimes I wonder if you're a fake Miss Ye.

What fake? I can't be more real.

Don't you want to know about the conversation between your father and I?

My dad doesn't want to get me back, does he?

Oh my god, I don't know a single person there. I might as well stay here.

Don't know a single person there?

Obeying the father before getting married and obeying the husband after getting married,

I would definitely rather be with you.

How did... you live in the Ye family in the past?

I'm a missy.

I get to order the servants around and I get everything I want. I never had to open the bottles of yogurt drinks.

Yogurt drinks?

I'm just rich.

Our servants when lined up, can circle this Black Wind Fortress for three rounds,

so you must treat me better,

a little better, and then even better.

Don't decrease my quality of life after I'm married.

She only knows how to cook and serve us.

She has the looks of a servant, even dad is not willing to look at her.

Don't keep looking at me. I know I'm pretty.

But I'm even prettier inside.

Are you really speaking the truth?

Of course, it's the truth.

Stop talking, stop talking.

My head hurts.

Look, you keep saying I'm delusional,

that I'm muddle-minded. You're right this time.

I can't remember anything from the past.

Forget about it, don't think about the past.

Oh, right. What did my dad tell you?

Is he very guilty?

Let's eat.

No way. He's not guilty at all?

I was kidnapped!

He's a Minister in Nan'an City, but he won't rescue his kidnapped daughter.

He even talked and drank with you.

What kind of dad do I have?

Remember, it's not worth being sad over people who don't cherish you.

I know you don't like Black Wind Fortress,

but if you really don't want to go back to the Ye family, no one will force you to go back there.

How warm.

I'll be wherever you are in the future.

Why are you not eating? Are you looking down on my culinary skills?

I'm buddhist, I don't eat meat.

You're not a monk. Why would you do that?

I'll go make you some vegetarian food

No need, I'm not hungry.

Why not?

Once you eat my food, you'll regret not eating it sooner.

Indeed, you make great food.

Of course.

Who did you learn it from?

I didn't have to learn it.

You'll starve to death if you don't cook.

Life is tough and seeking food is hard, cherish it while you have food to eat.

You certainly know how to have fun while suffering.

I'm done for, I'm the missy of the Ye family!

That, I mean--

I understand.

This is not the Ye family if you want to cook, then cook.

If you're not willing to cook then you don't have to.

If you're hungry, you have servants that will cook for you.

An overbearing CEO.

Mr. CEO, can you eat with me now?

Good.

Second Master! Second Master! Second Master!

Third Brother, since you're so skilled, while everyone is here,

why not show them some of your skills?

What do you guys think?

Yes!

Come show us, Third Master! Come show us, Third Master!

Second Brother, let's forget about it.

I don't wish to make a joke out of myself in front of you.

Third Brother, play with him for a while.

Okay!

Third Brother, can you shoot a bow?

I'm not very good at it, but if you want to train, I can accompany you.

Good!

These are the apples Eldest Brother gave me a while ago.

I think that they're too sweet; they don't suit my taste.

Why not let's play something interesting?

Come!

Third Brother, I haven't practiced my archery skills in a very long time.

If I tremble...

Since we're sworn brothers, my life is yours.

Fine, then here I go.

Second Master!

Second Brother, it's your turn.

Okay.

Let's do this, Third Brother.

Since you like interesting things

and I like them, too, why not put the apple in your mouth?

No! If you put too much strength into the arrow, I will die!

Earlier, I wasn't afraid that your arrow would pierce my head.

Eldest Brother!

Second Brother, you laid down the rules to make things interesting.

Yes, but--

Are you scared?

Second Brother, I haven't practiced in a long time, either.

If I slip, don't blame me.

Third Brother, spare him.

I understand.

G-Godfather, are you all right?

Third Master is excellent!

Excellent! Excellent!

What excellent?

You...

Second Brother, are you all right?

You--

Eldest Brother, bad news.

Third Sister-in-Law Jiang took a bowl of pigeon soup to the back mountains. Her servants couldn't stop her.

It's his birthday today.

Eldest Brother, let me go pick Third Sister-in-Law up.

It was ultimately my fault.

None of you are allowed to go. She's afraid of strangers.

What are you eating?

- The Ye family's unique snake soup. - Aren't you afraid of snakes? Where did you find the snake?

I'm indeed afraid of snakes. Little Manager Shen helped me catch it.

Hey, you lied to me that the snakes of Black Wind Fortress are not venomous.

This is a many-banded krait. Very venomous!

If you are bitten by it, you'll die within a few hours.

If not for Little Manager Shen, I would have died.

I have to vent my anger by eating it.

Where did you see this venomous snake?

Little Manager Shen told me the story about Third Sister-in-Law Jiang.

I thought she was quite pitiful, so I brought a few snacks and visited her.

I saw the snake right as I stepped out of the door.

A kind soul really doesn't get kindness in return.

What happened to her hands?

She's delusional, she hurt herself.

Oh, no!

Sister-in-Law!

I can't even do such a small thing properly!

Husband, you won't have pigeon soup to eat.

Sister-in-Law, you don't ever have to make pigeon soup again.

Third Brother won't be able to drink it.

If I hadn't insisted on keeping the pigeons, my husband wouldn't have died.

So, all of these pigeons...

none of them can live.

The same for you.

You haven't gone crazy after all.

You would certainly want me to be crazy.

After I go crazy, no one would know that you've done wrong and killed the wrong person.

No one will then get revenge for my husband.

I've done you both wrong.

I misunderstood him, even though Ninth was the one who sowed dissension between us.

Can you push all the blame onto Ninth?

You killed my husband!

You chased me out of the mountains when I was pregnant.

Your underlings are all beasts.

All those beasts have been punished.

Everything is too late now.

I suffered for so long just for this day.

My husband's birthday will be the day you die!

Go away! Go away!

- Are you all right? - Why are you here?

It's Third Sister-in-Law's injured arm that gave her away.

Doctor Dong sympathized with me. While he was treating me,

he passed me the skills of taming snakes.

Third Sister-in-Law, the dead can't come back to life.

Let Eldest Brother and yourself off.

Do I still look like the Third Madame?

Xia Chunyu, let me warn you.

The plight of my husband will ultimately happen to you, too.

Why mind other people's business?

Third Sister-in-Law!

Very well. If Black Wind Fortress loses a Third Master,

you can change to a new one.

But what about my husband?

Who can return me my husband?

I've let you and your husband down.

I owe Third Brother a life. I'll return it to him today.

You can go now.

Sorry? Sorry?

Sorry?

You can apologize to my husband

- after you come to hell with me. - Sister-in-Law!

You--
