[Gone with the Rain]

[Adapted from the novel "Gone with the Rain" by Ni Luo]

[Episode 3]

No one is coming to my yard.

You can rest here well.

After you recover, I'll bring you out.

Besides, I am very familiar with this area.

We can easily sneak out by taking shortcuts.

Those rebels don't know the way,

so how can they be my opponents?

I don't want money.

I just want a marriage certificate.

It's ridiculous.

Marriage is not a game.

I also know

that people like you, who come from a good family,

definitely look down on me. I have no father or mother,

and my appearance is fierce and poor,

so you probably think I either steal or rob.

But I like to make people feel difficult.

A certificate can help you to leave the city safely.

Consider yourself.

You saved my life.

I apologize

for my reckless words

that offended you.

It's not easy for you to live alone.

And you've helped me a lot.

I'll sign an IOU of thousand taels of gold with you

and return them to you in the future.

But please don't joke about the marriage certificate.

Thousand taels of gold?

It sounds attractive.

One thousand taels of gold.

I'll be overwhelmed with that amount.

But I'm stubborn, disobedient, and rebellious.

Moreover, I don't see

a thousand taels of gold now.

So, it's best to sign the certificate.

I'm just a soldier.

The life of a soldier is not stable.

Why do you have to joke with me?

You're not a soldier!

You look a bit better than I do.

You look even more handsome than the actors

I'd seen before.

I didn't lose anything

by signing a marriage certificate with you.

But reluctant things don't end well.

Who says so?

Did you try?

Did you rob a girl?

You...

I just want a marriage certificate.

I'll not use it to force you to marry me

and coerce you.

For you, it's just a piece of paper.

Miss, you're not married yet.

Why get involved with me for the sake

of a moment of passion?

I don't care.

You can only exchange it with the certificate.

Forget about it!

How could you even think of marrying your daughter

to someone else as a concubine?

But now he owns Jingzhou City.

He's the most authoritative man in the city.

You women are short of insight.

It's true that Chen Wende has the power now.

But don't you see

that the Jing State hasn't ended yet?

His Majesty and the ministers are planning

to gather a large loyalist army to retake Jingzhou City.

By then, he'll be just a rebel.

We definitely can't be on the same ship with him.

If you're worried about this,

I have another idea.

You say.

Fengyao is not the only girl in the Bai family.

The girl in the Bai family...

You're too old.

You... No, you...

Hold on. Do you mean...

That, that...

Moxi?

She's just an illegitimate daughter.

We've raised her for so many years,

and it is decent enough for her

to marry Chen Wende.

Even if Chen Wende is defeated in the future,

it has nothing to do with us...

You are more ruthless than me.

You're right.

She's not on our family tree.

She takes her mother's surname,

which is Tang.

She has no relationship with us.

You're smart.

I'm so lucky to have you as my wife.

So you have to appreciate me.

Yes.

I will.

Of course, I will.

I appreciate it so much.

Are you sure

that you just want a marriage certificate, right?

Yes, I promise.

All right.

You bring the brush and ink here.

These were left by Fengyao.

You just use them.

What are you writing about?

You read for me while writing.

I, Jiagui, have not been married yet

for many years.

I had heard that Bai Moxi

has all four virtues.

I admire her very much.

It is difficult to say why,

and I must express my admiration.

However, I am very concerned

about the marriage,

and I am willing to marry her.

I propose the marriage with courtesy

and wait for her answer.

I'll respect her decision.

[Wan Jiagui]

Your name is Jiagui?

What's your surname?

My surname is Wan.

Wan Jiagui, Bai Moxi.

Our names match well.

Don't you be arrogant just because of your good looking.

Whether you like me or not,

you've signed the marriage certificate.

So you're mine.

I didn't ask you to marry me,

so you don't think too much.

Moxi,

are you still awake?

Fengyao is coming.

Hide now!

Hurry, hurry!

Moxi.

Moxi.

I see that your candle is still burning,

so I come to find you.

Fengyao, why are you here at this hour?

What happened to you?

You look panicked.

Nothing.

What's wrong with your hands?

Are you hurt?

No!

Impossible.

Fengyao, there is a mouse.

Mouse?

Let me check.

Fengyao,

the mouse is huge.

It's huge?

How can it be?

I help you to catch it.

It's dark now.

We can't catch it.

When it's dawn tomorrow,

you ask Madam Li to send someone to catch it.

Okay, okay.

Why don't you sleep

at my place tonight?

I want to talk to you.

Then wash yourself quickly.

I'll find you after I turn off the fire.

Go.

Okay, okay.

Go. Go quickly.

Then you hurry up.

Sure.

Be careful.

Come out.

I don't want it.

I'll stay at Fengyao's place tonight.

You rest well.

I just want a marriage certificate.

I'll not use it to force you to marry me

and coerce you.

For you, it's just a piece of paper.

What does she want to do?

It's just a lousy drug.

Moxi.

Moxi.

Harpy, I'll send you to Mr. Zheng.

I'll see how you resist.

Mother!

You don't deserve it!

Moxi.

Moxi.

Moxi, you wake up.

Wake up quickly.

Wake up!

What happened?

There's something going on in your yard.

Mother and Madam Li went over.

Let's go.

Tell me.

What did you do to your eldest brother?

Brother?

I'd been here with Fengyao.

I didn't see Pengkun.

Then

why did something happen to him in your yard?

Moxi has been with me since yesterday.

What does Moxi have to do with what happened to Pengkun?

And why did Pengkun go to Moxi's yard?

This is strange.

You tidy up first.

If you have something to say, say it in front of Madam.

What's going on?

Was Wan Jiagui found?

I'll go with you.

[Wude Hall]

Good morning, Aunt.

Moxi,

does Pengkun always visit you?

Eldest Brother?

He won't go to my yard, and he never does.

He was injured by someone in your yard.

But I was with Fengyao last night

and didn't go back.

Moreover, Pengkun is a man.

He is tall and strong.

So how could I beat him?

That's true, Mother.

Is Pengkun seriously injured?

What did he say?

Moxi did sleep with me last night.

And how could a weak girl like Moxi

hurt Pengkun?

There are things you just...

How's Pengkun now?

Madam, he is much better now.

But his nose is broken, so he needs to lie down

to prevent bleeding again.

That's good.

Let's go.

We ask Pengkun together.

Our family can't tolerate such a filthy thing.

I must investigate the case today and find out

who secretly hurt him.

I hope he's smart

and runs quickly after hitting someone.

Let's go.

Mother, don't touch my butt.

I got kicked in the butt.

Don't be afraid.

I'm here.

Who is the one hurting you?

Bai Moxi.

Tell us.

What wild man did you hide in your house?

Did you date someone secretly?

I didn't!

Last night during the hour of Zi,

Fengyao even went to my room.

I'm innocent!

Moxi is telling the truth.

Shut up.

You wait for your brother to finish his words.

Mother,

last night in the dark,

as I entered the room,

a black shadow passed in front of me.

The more I tried to see who he was,

the more he hit me in the eye.

After he hit my left eye, he hit my right eye.

He hit only my eyes.

Look at what happened to my eyes.

After hitting my eyes,

he kicked my butt and ran away.

I just got it just now.

The room is dark, but my eyes can see.

Bai Moxi, tell me!

Did you hide any wild men in your room?

So you dare to have a secret meeting now, huh?

Am I right?

But what were you doing in Moxi's room

in the middle of the night?

I...

Mother.

Fengyao, you go back to your room.

You don't get involved in such things.

No, Mother.

It's quite strange that Pengkun was attacked.

I'll be very worried too if I don't find out.

Moxi, someone was hiding in your room.

You should know it yourself.

We are all family here now.

Let's settle the matter here.

You'd better admit it yourself.

Aunt, I really don't know.

Don't know?

You'd better don't know.

General, the spies captured yesterday

were Sun Mao and others who betrayed us.

They were ordered by Wu Lang

to spread rumors in the city

and also pretended to be the Beishuo army to plunder around.

They are trying to discredit us

and make us unpopular.

This cunning old man

hasn't stopped yet.

What should we do now?

Now we have to stay in Jingzhou City

in case the other rebels cause chaos.

At the same time, report to His Majesty

to declare our innocence.

By the way, pass on my order.

Intensify the search throughout the city

and make sure to arrest all the spies disguised as us

and those spreading rumors.

Yes, General.

By the way,

was the spy that escaped before arrested?

I apologize, General.

I don't know where he is at the moment.

But he was hurt.

So he should still be in the city.

I'll arrest him.

You may go now.

General,

Librarian Bai Wentai requests an appointment.

It's him?

Let him in.

Yes, General.

Your Excellency.

You're so eager to see me.

Had you found some treasure at home

to pay for my army?

Exactly.

No, no.

No, no.

Report to General, since General punished me,

my family's assets have been emptied.

What are you talking about?

Louder!

My assets were emptied.

There are a lot of people in my house.

We can't afford to live anymore.

So I'm here to earnestly request Your Excellency

to return me the one thousand bolts of silk.

Can you eat the things

you vomited?

Madam, the person was caught.

Really?

Good!

This is a false threat to trick me

into telling the truth.

It's impossible!

My room is so small.

How can I hide people?

You ask him to confront me.

I'm sorry that I didn't finish my sentence.

That was the old lady

who went to the toilet due to a stomach ache last night.

The servants caught the wrong person.

Caught wrongly?

Mother, was I beaten by a ghost last night?

Was that a ghost?

I was beaten by a ghost?

Are you afraid?

Tell me.

I'll punish leniently.

All right.

I'll tell you.

It seems that there is really a ghost in my yard.

What's this nonsense?

It's real!

Sometimes I sat in the courtyard,

and suddenly a small stone fell from the sky

and hit my head,

or sometimes I heard someone sighing

at midnight in my room.

You've been living in that courtyard for so long.

Why didn't you mention it?

I didn't dare to tell.

My yard is so shabby, and my room is so small.

I keep saying I want to change another room,

but no one cares.

If there were a ghost here,

why wouldn't it harm you?

Instead, it beat my son so badly when he went there.

I have no idea.

But in my dream,

I heard a person telling me

that she had been wronged by the Bai family

and had been locked up there.

She wanted to revenge on someone with the surname Bai.

Perhaps my surname isn't Bai,

and I take my mother's surname, Tang.

That's why she never harmed me.

Mother,

are you really fooled by her?

Shut... Shut up!

There is no ghost!

Screw you!

Moxi, you may go back now.

Yes, Aunt.

Mother!

You don't let her go, Mother!

Calm down, General!

I don't dare.

I am at loggerheads with Wu Lang.

He forced me to marry my daughter to you.

But then again,

I managed to infiltrate Wu Lang's Mansion

because of you.

The family went to dinner,

which gave me an opportunity to infiltrate.

The confiscation of the one thousand bolts of silk

was to punish you

for flattering Wu Lang.

Right.

I deserve to be punished.

General,

I have one more thing to report to you.

Say.

Although the Bai family is currently poor,

we have always adhered to honesty.

Since the Bai family have promised Wu Lang

to marry my daughter to General as a concubine,

despite all the things had happened now,

the promise made

will not change.

I would like to marry my niece to General.

Please approve it, General.

What did you say?

Who will you marry me to?

Ni... Niece.

Niece?

Niece.

I remember

that I should marry your own daughter,

not your niece.

My daughter had a heart attack at the last banquet

and is still lying in bed.

She is a coward.

She doesn't suit you, General.

She doesn't suit me?

Yes.

Darn it!

I heard that your daughter is a bookworm.

Your niece

is quite interesting.

Yes, yes.

She's interesting.

Help!

[The Wu family wants you to marry Chen Wende]

I'm Librarian Bai's niece.

So,

do you agree with this, General?

Official Bai, since you're so sincere

in marrying your niece to me,

how can I disagree?

I am very grateful for that!

I am very grateful for that!

So, we are family!

General, enjoy your meal.

General, enjoy your meal.

Continue with your meal.

One family we are.

Continue.

I'm very busy.

You get out first.

Get out!

Thank you, General.

The officials in the court

are all so flattering.

How can this country

be stabilized?

Did he really leave here?

You're here!

Moxi!

Moxi!

Wait for me!

You ran so fast.

Are you angry with my mother?

How dare I be angry with Aunt.

She's my bread and butter.

If I offend her,

I'm afraid I won't even have a biscuit to eat.

My mother was just too concerned.

Besides, Pengkun went to your room at midnight.

He must have ill intentions.

You must be careful.

You too.

Be more cautious.

Your parents keep you in the dark

and take advantage of you.

You're talking nonsense again.

You go back now.

If your mother sees you here,

she'll tell me off.

By the way, did Madam Li also take your change

when she tracked down your room?

How much did you sell the beads I gave you last time?

Are there any beads left?

I hid the beads under the bed.

I think she missed it.

That's good.

You just sell all the beads.

If you don't have enough money,

I have another bead.

Come down slowly.

Slow, slow.

Miss Moxi, I was mistaken about you.

Did you think I stole Fengyao's beads,

so you tried to persuade me not to be a thief?

I was narrow-minded and mistaken about you.

I nearly became an ungrateful person.

Since you've apologized to me sincerely,

I'll let it go.

But it's no wonder

that the son of an official like you

looks down on us from humble backgrounds.

That's why you treated me as a thief.

No.

You look fierce, but you're very kind.

I judged a book by its cover.

But this is because I am stupid,

not because of your background.

Besides, I don't know your background.

Are you trying to make me feel better?

Or are you being sarcastic?

Did you hear about it last night?

Miss Moxi's yard is haunted.

Mr. Chen, get me two trays of mantou.

Sure.

They are ready.

Let me get them for you.

Here.

Hold on.

How can you eat so much, little girl?

What's wrong with me eating more?

My yard is isolated,

and not many people usually go there.

I can't eat on my own.

Maybe there's a fox, a ghost, or something

to steal the food.

You...

Come, come.

Be careful.

Thank you, Mr. Chen.

Her yard is really haunted.

Really?

You don't scare me.

Stop it.

Let's work.

Previously, because of your cousin,

the Bai family was startled.

You don't seem to be worried at all.

Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Bai will find out?

Don't worry.

She won't be checking up on me for a while.

Not only her

but also all the servants and maids

may not come.

Now everyone is spreading rumors

about the haunting of my yard.

What crazy idea did you have again?

The concubine of the previous generation

of the Bai family stayed in this yard a long time ago.

She somehow offended the master

and was locked up here

for more than ten years before she died.

But it has been over twenty years,

and everyone in the Bai family has forgotten about it,

except for Mrs. Bai, who still remembers it.

Do you know why?

Did she have anything to do with this?

Yes.

My deceased grandmother,

Mrs. Bai's maternal aunt,

is very close to Mrs. Bai.

That concubine was hurt

because my grandmother didn't like her.

If she became a ghost,

the first person to seek revenge

would be Mrs. Bai,

who is related to my grandmother.

My second aunt is very scared now.

How dare she interfere with my affairs?

Are these told by Miss Fengyao too?

You guess?

I guess?

Well,

we should go out for a walk.

Where do we go?

The streets are not safe.

Didn't you always want to escape from here?

Since you have already signed the marriage certificate,

I need to do something now.

I have to get ready as soon as possible

and bring you out quickly.

Don't worry.

I'm very familiar with Jingzhou City.

You wait for me.

I'll go find my father's clothes from when he was alive.

Please don't mind the old clothes.

During this period, the street patrol has just passed.

Let's quickly go to the street to buy something

and explore the way for you.

You're very familiar with this area.

Of course.

I grew up here since I was young.

My mother came from a courtesan background,

and my father had always been afraid to bring her back to the Bai residence.

So, she rented a house nearby.

I grew up in this alley.

It used to be so crowded here.

I would be afraid of losing my wallet

when I shopped here.

You see, there's not a lot of people here.

More than 100,000 people escaped from Jingzhou City,

and those who didn't escape were afraid and stayed home.

Everything will be fine when the loyalist army

recovers Jingzhou City.

Don't say anything about His Majesty

and restoring Jingzhou City.

It would be bad for us if anyone heard it.

Try it.

Seeing that you're eager to leave the city,

I know you have no appetite.

I promised you earlier to buy something to use.

Let's go.

You help me to take this.

Mr. Wang, how are you?

My business isn't very good.

Meeting you makes me feel worse.

What you said?

I'm here to introduce a buyer to you.

He wants to leave the city.

Are you a soldier?

You are knowledgeable.

I will not ask which power you are.

And I don't care whether you want to leave Jingzhou

or enter the Imperial City.

If you want the weapon from me...

Five taels of gold?

Fifty taels.

It's daylight robbery!

You don't even ask around.

Apart from me, Wang Er,

who else dares to take on your business?

You...

Something's wrong.

Let's go first.

We'll take our leave.

What's going on?

There are rebels.

Let's walk separately.

It's the rebels.

The rebels are here.

The rebels are here!

Hurry, hide yourself.

You guys, go and guard over there.

Yes, General.

Miss,

stop.

We met again.

Who are you?

After parting from the mansion,

you had forgotten me so soon.

I'm in a good mood today and won't bother arguing with you.

When we meet again,

I'll settle the score with you.

It's you.

The streets aren't safe yet.

What are you doing sneaking around

alone?

It's none of your business.

How dare you be so rude in front of General Chen?

You're General Chen?

What are you laughing at?

I laugh at you for being like a local tyrant.

Everyone is afraid of you when they see you.

How dare you!

The first time I saw this lady,

she was so fearless.

Tell me.

What are you doing here alone?

Let me go.

You murderous devil!

Since you said I'm a devil,

if you don't tell me,

I'll behead the whole Bai family.

Go ahead.

My surname is Tang.

I'm not Bai.

Their lives are none of my business.

You don't care if they live or die.

But what about you?

Aren't you afraid of having

three or five scars on your beautiful face?

All right.

I'll tell you.

I just came to buy some croton and laxatives.

Just go to the hospital to buy medicine.

Why are you on the street?

I'm afraid.

I went to the hospital

to buy some medicine for diarrhea.

And then I ran into your people,

and they kept asking me questions.

So, I don't dare to come out.

I was looking for a medicine store by the road,

but I didn't see one.

Something's wrong if you're fear to be questioned.

Who do you buy the medicine for?

I'm going to buy croton for my brother.

Interesting.

I told you everything.

You don't tell anyone.

Croton is troublesome.

If you need it,

I can give you two other herbs.

What are they?

Asadin and Aconitum.

The entire Bai family

will surely die with just a bowl of it.

All right.

You may go now.

Stop.

Wu,

buy some crotons from the hospital

and send them to Bai's Mansion for her.

Yes, General.

Well, then, thanks to General Chen.

You're welcome.

You can come to me if you want to drug someone.

Whether it's Asadin or Aconitum,

I'll get it for you.

Go.

Am I a local tyrant?

Were you hurt?

I'm fine.

You saw it just now.

Fortunately, you didn't rush out.

That Chen brought so many people.

Even if you could fight a hundred,

we would die for nothing.

As a Longxiang Army,

I can't bring you into trouble.

If anything happened to you because of me,

how could I not save you?

You are really a fool.

Did he mean that if I had been in any danger...

Let me go!

Let her go!

Moxi,

from now on,

no one in this world can hurt you anymore.

By the way,

I bought some lamb and mantou along the way just now.

They are going to get cold.

Let's hurry back.

Are you okay?
