[Episode 10]

If I lose the bet, I'll betray Black Wind Fortress

and listen to everything you say.

But if you lose, you will disappear from before me for good.

You think I m a peasant and I don't know what you are thinking.

You also want me to disappear from in front of Ye Jinxuan, too. Right?

It's the same thing. Yao Yao and I are married after all. We are one.

If it's heads, then I win.

♫ I only need one breath to sink my breath to my lower stomach ♫

♫ Fighting skills are not used to gain advantages ♫

♫ The loyalty inside my heart allows my blood to flow smoothly ♫

♫ My strong zeal is for my brothers ♫

♫ So I've been repeatedly making it slowly assimilate into my body ♫

♫ To become my fatal poison, I must be very familiar with it ♫

Wow, this is really a TV drama. Two guys fighting over me.

I'm just so blessed

♫ Uninvited guests, take this punch ♫

♫ Liars, watch out for the cars and boats ♫

♫ I have a loyal and righteous heart, but I keep a low profile ♫

♫ Martial morality will always come first, and not even thunder can break this faith ♫

♫ In the future when my name is mentioned, not many stories will come up ♫

♫ They'll say I trained hard, had a bitter willpower, and slept on the streets everyday ♫

This is awkward.

You are really taking this seriously? I won't back down either.

Gugu, what's that song again? (T/N: Gugu - Aunt)

Use your nunchucks quick, huh-huh-ha-hey!

Use your nunchucks quick, huh-huh-ha-hey. Thank you, Gugu!

Who is your Gugu (aunt)?

♫ In day and in night, I am like a tireless horse ♫

♫ I can use all weapons, like knives, guns, sticks, and clubs ♫

♫ It takes control of my body, and it takes no effort to defeat you ♫

♫ My righteous aura will trample all lowlives underfoot ♫

♫ Please don't come near me, I can play it by ear ♫

- You have hidden weapons? - Yao Yao,

whose wife are you?

She can't be my wife so she can only be settled as your wife.

- Nonsense. - This is not true.

♫ I bring trouble because of my reputation ♫

♫ Uninvited guests, take this punch ♫

Stop fighting!

♫ Liars, watch out for the cars and boats ♫

Yao Yao!

Why did you come over here?

Because she is my Gugu.

- Gugu, are you all right? - Yao Yao.

- Turns out being a character from a romantic comedy is not fun at all. - What?

Ding Qi, no matter what happened between you two before,

- it doesn't matter now. - Nonsense.

Gugu, do you think it doesn't matter?

Ding Qi... sorry.

Court Master Ding, I made this with my own hands. Please take it.

What is this? I don't want it

Hey!

♫ 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 ♫

Aiya.

Another day has passed.

Wow, he left money by my pillow when I wasn't around for the past few days.

This man is reliable.

5... 10...15.

20... 25... 30.

You look very energetic, I guess this wound cleansing medicine is useless then.

If I hadn't pretended to faint, you two would still be fighting.

And let me tell you, Ding Qi is very good with his nunchucks.

Since he is so good, why did you come back?

Because somebody said, "Yao Yao and I are married, and we should be together."

So awesome!

You are very impressive. Song Qi calls you Nainai and Ding Qi calls you Gugu.

Oh, I know. You are jealous?

Stop flattering yourself.

Let me tell you. There are two kinds of people in this world.

One kind likes me

and the other kind hasn't realized yet he likes me. Which kind are you?

You can pack your stuff and go back. Shall I help you?

I understand. You are the kind who hasn't realized it yet.

It's okay since you are Stupid Donkey. I can't teach you.

But you need to apologize first.

Why do I need to apologize?

You go into Liu Yiyi's room in the middle of the night and you yelled at me because of it.

Shouldn't you be apologizing?

You got back with your old time lover and so he came all the way to Yongcui Pavilion and calls you, "Gugu."

I won't talk to you if you don't apologize.

Yao Yao.

Yao Yao. If you ignore me, I'll leave.

Where are you going?

What is this?

I forgive you now.

Actually, that day

I saw you brought medicine for Liu Yiyi.

You...

- I saw everything. - Then why would you...

Okay, that counts as an apology.

I wasn't apologizing.

Stupid Donkey...

- Do you like me now? - No.

Then why did you fight with Ding Qi over me?

I just don't like you mixed up with Xinyi Court's boss, it wouldn't be good if that news got out.

Pshaw...

May I ask you a question?

What do you mean by Pandora?

Pandora... it is a bracelet that a guy gives to a girl.

It has a lot of beads and every bead has a different meaning.

It's a symbol of love.

But I don't think these beads are practical.

Then what is practical in your mind?

If I tell you, would you give it to me?

- Forget it then. - Hey!

Wait, I m going to tell you this beautiful story.

This is the best,

most exciting story I've ever seen.

The male lead...

♫ Use half my life to watch the snowflakes fall ♫

♫ Then use half of my life's love to count the falling flower petals ♫

- Guess what happened after that. - What happened?

- You really want to know? - Yes. - Come here.

Come here! Sit.

♫ Meeting a lover is passionate, ♫

♫ but spending a lifetime together is bland ♫

Hand! Put your hand on the pillow.

It's not like seeing the doctor; turn it over.

Don't move!

You want to know the rest of the story? Don't move then.

When I wake up tomorrow, I will tell you the rest.

1-2-3, I'm asleep.

Eldest Brother!

Eldest Brother, are you better now?

- Oh, I'm much better now. - Good.

Eldest Brother, this is my writing, can you look at it?

Sure.

As long as you are happy.

Calligraphy is very hard, just use it to entertain yourself.

Eldest Brother! I know I'm not good enough.

I will work on it. Could you teach me?

You bring it here every morning. If I circle two characters, you can stop practicing.

If I don't circle any characters, go back and write three more pages.

- What? - Like I said,

calligraphy is hard. If you want to give up, nobody will blame you.

- If you have time, practice with your sword more often. - No, no, Eldest Brother.

I will try my best at calligraphy for sure.

Eldest Brother, how long do I need to practice before I catch up to Third Brother?

I'm not sure that day will ever come, but it's good to dream.

Eldest Brother, can writing a few words count as ambition?

The point is, he has to be like me, loyal and devote his life to you.

Just tell me what you are thinking.

Eldest Brother, in case you don't know, the rumor has spread throughout all Nan'an City,

that Third Brother is getting really close with Ding Qi of Xinyi Court because of Third Sister-in-Law.

You saw him hanging around with Ding Qi?

Every night after dinner, he goes north of the town and visits Jinxiu Square. If he sees a red lantern,

he goes to West Street. If not, he goes home and rests.

Where on West Street?

I followed him several times and I lost him every time.

But if he is going to see one of our brothers, why be so sneaky?

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

It's Prince Yu.

Sweet and sour hawthorn!

Sweet and sour hawthorn!

The aroma is as fantastic as expected. I am able to drink this Yuqianlongjin tea because of your help.

There was a worm problem this year, so the production of Yuqianlongjin tea has decreased drastically.

I could only get a little bit.

The more valuable it is, the more it boosts our status to be able to drink it.

The Helian family's tea was gifted by Princess Royal.

Neither of the princes received any. His Majesty himself is not biased.

Neither prince got a share, yet the Eastern Palace was already enjoying it. (T/N: Princess's Palace)

Young sir, what do you want to buy?

- I want to pick out some clothes. - Then you have come to the right place.

Look at these fabrics and styles, they're the best in town.

This white suits you perfectly.

His Majesty just removed the person holding the Crown Prince's supervisory position.

He had to do something to comfort the Eastern Palace.

Father cares most about the Crown Prince.

It's no wonder. The Crown Prince is the son of the former Empress.

My mother was only a servant girl.

Prince Yu, Your Highness has bigger ambitions. Why worry about this little loss?

Young sir, take a look. It's cut so well.

But this one is too plain.

This blue one suits you perfectly.

Third Brother.

- Who are you? - Would you like to buy something, sir?

Your Highness, General.

I've already hung up the red lantern in Jinxiu Square.

General, I have something to tend to. Let's meet some other day.

Farewell.

I know Nan'an City much better than you.

Wait

Third Sister-in-Law, this is a letter from Third Master. You must read it right away.

- What's the rush? - I don't know either.

It's a trick. Don't go.

When the sun goes down, come to see me at the riverside. I will wait there for you.

This Stupid Donkey, why does he want me to go there?

You are here? Yu...

- Yu? Yu what? - Why is it you?

You asked me to come here.

I know. Do you have a mistress called Yu?

- Don't talk nonsense. - Don't get off topic.

Just how many lovers do you hav--

- Yao Yao. - Huh?

Do you really like me?

Is this the surprise you're giving me?

I'm asking you a question.

I...

Of course, I like you... so handsome.

-...handsome. - Bai Chongye is still suspicious of me.

Prince Yu has outmatched him.

Even if I like you, you don't need to--

Why... Why did you stop?

Are you leaving already?

Look... how beautiful the view is.

We should do something, right?

What do you want?

I said that I like you. You should say it back to me, too.

Me too?

I really can't say these things, I'm not you.

You are such a straight dude.

You need to flatter girls.

What's so hard about saying some nice things to your wife?

Forget it then.

I forgive you since you're an ancient man.

I will teach you a special technique instead.

Just say what I say.

"I love you."

When I say, "I love you," you just say, "I love you, too."

This is routine.

Why should I learn this routine?

Because this really works.

Actually, this is like a code.

From now on when we are on some important mission,

you can say this as a code, "I love you."

Say it.

I love you, too.

(French) I love you.

(Japanese) I love you.

(Korean) Oppa, I love you.

- (Korean) Op...pa, I-- - No, no.

You can't say "Oppa." Only I can say that.

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking about the couples in that drama you told me about.

How did they end up?

Oh, where was I?

Ah, the guy pretends that he is going to be murdered.

But actually, he was just trying to surprise the girl,

so he could give her the Xingchen Ship.

What is a Xingchen Ship?

It's a starship, a flying car.

How can I describe it? It looks like a shrimp.

You can drive it to fly in the sky.

To confess your love in the sky... That's so romantic.

I tell you. The Xingchen Ship

is much more useful compared to a Pandora bracelet.

I don't understand a word.

Let's go back.

Let's enjoy the sunset more before leaving.

"This sunset is so great.

Too bad it's near the end of the day."

Stupid Donkey, if one day...

This is just hypothetical. If I'm not with you anymore,

would you miss me? Would you feel sad?

I will.

Maybe in my dreams

I will laugh out loud.

You must be lying.

I will definitely miss you. How could you not miss me?

Let's go.

How can you be so cruel to me?

We just said "I love you" to each other.

I love you, too. Let's go.

- (Japanese) I love you. - (Japanese) I love you.

- (Korean) I love you. - (Korean) I love you!

Be quick finishing those custom suits.

Yes.

Go now.

Young sirs, do you want tailored suits?

I'm here to ask you something. If you don't answer honestly,

- you will never do business around here again. - Sheng Wu.

Owner, we are only asking some questions, just answer with honesty.

How often do you hang that lantern?

It's hard to tell, it all depends.

I don't understand, that's a little confusing.

It's not a time for lanterns, so why did you hang it there?

Does it break any law to hang a lantern?

Just answer what we ask.

Do you know this man?

I have met him a few times.

Sometimes he walks past by my shop, but never walks in.

How about this woman?

Madame Xia is one of our regular customers.

She asked me to hang that lantern.

Do you know why?

I didn't ask her.

But Madame Xia always looks so shy when she asks me to hang it up.

And she looks extra pretty, too.

What else?

Madame Xia is a very generous customer.

She has already ordered a few custom dresses this month.

So whenever she asks me to hang the lantern, I do.

I remember the last time I came to Jinxiu Square,

you were not the boss here.

Oh, you mean Owner Zhang?

He is my cousin. He is resting back at home because he's sick.

Is he really?

Also, tell your cousin-in-law.

I've already gotten the Wujiang rice she asked me to buy.

Maybe you remembered wrong. My cousin-in-law is from Long County in the northwest.

She likes noodles, not rice.

Then maybe I'm mistaken. Goodbye.

- Let's go. - Okay.

Eldest Brother, we should look further into this. There must be a secret in Jinxiu Square.

I was overthinking. It's only some couple scheme between Third Brother and his wife.

No, Eldest Brother!

You forget what happened to Ninth Brother?

This is different, so many people witnessed Ding Qi walk into Yongcui Pavilion.

Yongcui Pavilion is open for all business, why can't he be there?

If Third Brother is secretly friends with him, why make it so obvious?

Eldest Brother, you are the one who said it's better to kill than to let a guilty person go free.

I just think there's something wrong with Third.

Sheng Wu,

let me be direct with you.

Instead of following Third around every day,

it's better to go read, write, or think about,

"How Third can get Ding Qi to spend so much time on him and I can't?"

Yeah, why can't I?

I don't know why, so go figure it out.

Yes, okay.

- Wait, Eldest Brother-- - Stop mentioning it.

Nainai, what are you doing?

Didn't you hear?

Eldest Master decided to let Yongcui Pavilion welcome Minister Liu from the Salt Department.

There is also a full moon that night.

So, I thought of making this snow skin mooncake.

But what does "snow skin" mean?

Besides, this full moon night is not in mid-autumn.

Wouldn't it be odd to eat mooncakes?

A full moon night is--

Don't contaminate my sacred place.

This full moon night is not in mid-autumn for sure.

But I won't be able to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you guys.

So let's eat mooncakes a bit earlier.

Are you going somewhere else for Mid-Autumn Festival?

Yes, I m going to a faraway place.

Then where are you going?

Back to Shanghai.

Shanghai... where is that?

Shanghai is the world I came from.

Then can you come back earlier? When you were at Xinyi Court,

Third Master really missed you. He couldn't sleep or eat well.

Did he?

Don't just stand here. Take a bowl

and mix the sugar, the rice flour, and the sticky rice flour all together.

Then steam it later. It'll make the snow skin.

I have something to do later,

so I'll get Sang Sang and Sheng Sheng to come here to help you.

What things can you possibly have to do?

Something personal.

It's almost time, I should go.

What's the rush?

Nainai, goodbye!

Something is definitely up.

Be careful.

Come this way, be careful.

Slowly, slowly.

Hey! Little Manager Shen,

what are you doing here? So mysterious.

Nothing, Third Master just wanted me to move some wood.

Move some wood?

- Nainai, it's super dirty inside. Don't come in. - Go away.

Don't come in, Nainai.

Nainai!

What's that?

Little Manager Shen.

Airplane!

Nainai!

What is this?

You found it yourself. I have nothing to do with this.

Third Master said that although this looks like a shrimp,

it has a name called Xing... Xing...

It's a Xingchen Ship.

Yes, a Xingchen Ship.

The skeleton structure is almost done, one more month and it will be all finished.

But one month is too late.

No. When you come back from Shanghai, you will see it.

But I'm still very happy.

Master Qi, the signboard is done, do you want us to hang it up?

What is this? Napaj, Nodnol, Sirap.

Paris, London, Japan!

When you are rich, you can cry in Paris,

cry in London, or cry in Japan

in a spa wearing a facial mask.

If you are poor, when you get sad

you can only cry while eating cheap BBQ by the roadside.

It's sad to even think about it.

Stupid Donkey, you are stupid indeed.

Let's not hang it today, another time.

Okay, we will leave it here then.

- Move it there. - Okay.

Be careful.

Careful.

Put it over here.

Paris... London... Japan.

They all belong to me.

♫ Please pause at this moment. ♫

Who did you say I look like?

♫ You just stopped being a stranger, ♫

♫ but the warmth remains in my heart ♫

♫ as if it's a banquet. ♫

♫ The aftertaste is kind of sweet. ♫

♫ The bleak moments all freeze ♫

♫ at this moment. ♫

♫ Even bland tastes ♫

1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Five times five is 25.

♫ I don't say anything because I'm afraid ♫

♫ you'll see through all my secrets. ♫

♫ The game of secret codes ♫

Forget about it! I have less than a week, anyway.

Hey!

Ai-ya.

Tea pots, tea cups, and jewelry.

This will make me a billionaire.

Stupid Donkey, I'm sorry.

Third Master is back.

I can't help it. I'm a time traveler.

Husband!

- Come down off me! - No, I won't.

Why are you laughing?

I never realized it before.

You are an expert at love.

I don't understand.

Paris, London, and Japan. That's for me, right?

Do you mean that when I get sad,

I don't need to go to the real Paris, London, or Japan. Right?

You come down off me.

Why are you dreaming in the middle of the day?

I hate you people who won't speak their minds.

Just speak out.

If you don't say it, it's going to be really, really too late for real.

Little Manager Shen, get me my horse!

The house you set aside for me was redesigned from a warehouse.

But luckily the structure is solid and the traffic is good.

So there is a high-profit value.

How did you find this place?

I knew you liked me,

but hearing you say it feels much different.

Of course, I didn't push you to do anything.

But if you don't like me, why did you buy me a house,

why did you make a starship for me,

and why make the billboard?

I know it now.

Stupid Donkey, thank you.

Thank you for being here.

I thought I came here

just for a holiday.

But if the holiday can last a little longer

till forever, that would be really nice.

Like dreaming.

But...

But what?

But... I need to go home.

But I forgot to tell you

the Xingchen Ship cannot fly without the magic powder.

Let's not waste any more wood.

What are you talking about?

Keep on acting.

- Little Manager Shen. - Yes?

Uncover it.

- See. - See what?

What do you mean? It's right in your face...

Oh no, where is my starship?
