[Sisterhood]

[Episode 5]

Mom.

Bihua heard

you have a bad appetite these days,

so she made you Shaoxing chicken porridge.

She…

She did that?

I didn't expect Young Lady of Jin

to be so considerate.

Mom.

Bihua is my sister.

You know that

our mother passed away early,

so in our hearts,

you're just like our own mother.

Young Lady of Jin, you're quite interesting.

You usually avoid greeting me

and slip away

when you see me.

After hearing

what your sister said today,

I realized that

you've kept your love to me

in your heart.

That's right.

Mrs. Lu.

I love you a lot in my heart.

Mom,

when I married into the Lu family,

she was still young.

Every time she visited our home,

I told her to behave well,

so she was scared to see you.

That's why she tended to avoid you.

Mom,

the porridge has been cooling down for a while.

It should be ready to eat.

Try it.

Is it good?

Mom.

What's wrong?

Don't you like it?

Why is the rice so hard?

Are you trying to break my teeth?

It's Bihua's fault.

This is her first try.

Please forgive her.

Did I say anything?

I didn't blame her.

Bihua,

go to the kitchen

and cook another one for Mrs. Lu.

Another one?

You need to cook for a long time.

Mom.

Don't worry.

This time, it'll definitely…

It'll be noon then.

Do you want me to skip lunch

for this porridge?

Then...

Forget it.

I didn't expect

you poor Jin family

could teach someone

who can cook nice porridge

for me.

I...

Mom.

Don't get angry.

Bihua will be careful in the future.

Mrs. Lu.

Your porridge.

Can I take it in?

Come in.

Who are you?

Why are you in my house?

Mrs. Lu.

My name is Bai Wei.

I'm a tutor hired by Second Young Mistress

for Master Zhanyuan.

What do you teach Zhanyuan?

I tutor him in English.

Enjoy your meal.

I'll leave you to it.

Hold on.

Miss Bai.

Did you cook this porridge

for me?

Not me.

Then who cooked it?

Actually, this porridge

was cooked by Young Lady of Jin.

I saw her busy cooking it

when I went to the kitchen.

I guess she didn't want you to be hungry

and was in a hurry to give it to you,

but

someone else was cooking porridge for Second Young Master,

so she accidently took the wrong one.

That's why

the servants at the kitchen asked me to give it to you

as soon as they found out.

Thank you, Miss Bai.

Mom, I told you.

Bihua knew you have dental problems.

How could she cook the rice

so hard?

It turned out that she took the wrong one.

Bihua, next time,

you can't be so careless again.

Yes.

I was in a hurry.

Young Lady of Jin,

looks like I misunderstood you.

Your cooking is not bad.

Mrs. Lu, if you like it,

I'll cook it for you tomorrow.

Alright.

It's okay here.

You two may leave.

Miss Bai.

Where are you from?

Shanghai.

You're from Shanghai?

No wonder I found your accent familiar.

I'm from Shanghai too.

Well, in Southeast Asia,

there are many people from Fujian, Guangdong,

but it's hard to find someone

who's from Shanghai.

Tell me,

how is Shanghai now?

It's okay here.

I finally

met someone from the same place with me.

I'd like to talk to her.

Is it appropriate for you two

to listen?

Okay, Mom.

We're leaving now.

Go.

Miss Bai, have a seat.

Serve tea for Miss Bai.

You two may leave.

-Yes. -Yes.

How long

have you been away from Shanghai?

Miss Bai,

the porridge thing wasn't like

what you said, right?

Miss Bai.

You saw it just now.

Miss Jin

took porridge to Mrs. Lu.

I found it was the wrong one

after she left.

That porridge is for Second Young Master.

This is for Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu has dental problems.

She likes to have soft rice.

Miss Bai,

can you

take this porridge to Mrs. Lu

for me?

But I haven't had a chance

to officially introduce myself to Mrs. Lu

ever since I came here.

Is it appropriate for me to take this porridge to her now?

Yes.

You're very smart.

It depends on you

whether you can stay in the Lu family or not.

I heard you couldn't sleep well recently

and had no appetite.

You haven't had breakfast for days.

I was truly happy

seeing you

eating the whole bowl of porridge.

As for who brought the porridge,

is it that important?

Besides,

as a tutor,

I can be fired at any time.

How dare I lie

in front of you and Second Young Mistress?

Miss Bai, you're really silver tongued.

Don't worry.

No one in the Lu family can fire you.

Thank you, Mrs. Lu.

If you think

Jin Biyun pays you little,

I can also ask her

to increase your salary.

That's okay. Thanks, Mrs. Lu.

It's quite a fair amount.

Who’s in my room?

Third Young Master.

Miss Bai.

Sorry.

There are something problems

with the design of our guest room's door.

It can be locked from inside,

but not outside,

so it was opened easily

when I touched it.

I'll ask Ms. Huang

to install a new lock for you.

In that case,

I wouldn't have the chance to find

that not only did you teach English well,

but you're also an artist.

What artist?

I just like to draw.

It seems like

you are very interested in Nan Lan.

Not really.

It's just

the way she dressed up as the Heavenly Lady

was very special.

I remembered it at a glance.

I don't think

I heard of the Heavenly Lady anywhere else.

She

is really special.

She's very multifaceted.

Sometimes,

she dresses up like a western lady.

Sometimes,

she dresses up like a Nyonya.

Of course.

Also the parading Heavenly Lady

like you drew.

Each aspect of her is decent

and beautiful.

But she killed your brother.

Why don't you hate her at all?

When the accident happened,

I was abroad.

I don't know

what exactly happened.

Besides,

my brother

just went missing.

The police didn't find his body.

It's even said

my brother was cooked in a soup

by her.

Soup?

It's obviously nonsense.

I don't believe it anyway.

My brother

went missing once before

for more than a month.

The whole family was very worried.

When he came back,

he brought back sister-in-law with him.

At that time,

they had already got married,

but before that,

they didn't get approval

from my mom.

So mom had prejudice against her

from the beginning.

What prejudice?

Is it because her family background

is not good enough for your family?

Not really.

It's just that

there were many strange things

that happened to Nan Lan's family,

especially her identity as the Heavenly Lady.

My mother always said

my brother got enchanted

by her.

Enchanted?

Have you ever seen her put a spell on him?

No.

Her family has property

all over Europe and Southeast Asia.

She's super rich.

Which man doesn't like

a rich and beautiful woman?

She doesn't have to

put a spell on men.

Do you think

Nan Lan

killed your brother?

Miss Bai,

are you also interested in becoming a detective?

Not really.

I'm just curious.

What did you mean

by "not really"?

Did I say that?

When you said something about family match.

I must have read too many novels.

Many writers in Shanghai

like to write such love stories.

Those men and women

in the stories

can't love each other

because of the mismatch of their family background.

That's what I hate the most.

My eldest brother and elder brother

are all victims of it.

Anyway, I won't give in.

Love

is the only reason for marriage.

So,

no one can restrain me

by the family background.

By the way,

I'm going to see Nan Lan

and ask her something

about my brother.

Come with me.

Why me?

We clicked.

But I haven't treated you to anything

since you came here.

Nan Lan's Goddess Hotel

is quite famous in Xingzhou.

I'll buy you a cup of coffee.

You won't refuse me, will you?

Well,

since you said so,

it won't be appropriate for me

to refuse you.

Perfect.

Tonight,

let's go out

after you finish your tutoring for Zhanyuan.

Tonight?

Okay.

Goddess Hotel.

[Goddess Hotel, Xingzhou]

Miss.

Mr. Richard is here.

He's waiting for you

in the lobby of the hotel.

Let him wait then.

I haven't decided

what to wear.

Tao.

Pick something for me.

I don't want to waste my time.

Okay.

Please.

Thank you.

Your check-in is done.

This way, please.

Please check in here.

Okay.

Hello.

My goddess.

You're so beautiful.

Nan Lan,

you are the most beautiful orchid

in Xingzhou.

You mean

there are other flowers

more beautiful than me elsewhere?

I'm sorry.

My praise

is flawed.

Richard,

speak Chinese.

Although you can't speak Chinese well,

it sounds more pleasant to me.

Yes, Ma'am.

[Oversea-Chinese Banking Limited Company]

How is it?

Are you satisfied

with the number on the cheque?

I wanted to

discuss the amount

with you,

but I didn't expect…

It is more than you initially thought.

Right.

My journey in Southeast Asia for the past three years

has come to

such a perfect end.

Thank you so much, Miss Nan Lan.

You are my goddess forever.

We've already discussed

the details of the contract.

Let's close the deal

with the number on the cheque

in the witness of

lawyers from both of our sides.

Sure.

Miss Nan Lan,

you do business with no muss, no fuss.

I'm impressed.

My company used to own

65% of the total shares.

It has been transferred.

Can I know

why you are suddenly

so interested

in the building?

I'm not interested.

Then why?

Your shares

account for 65% of the total.

Who owns the rest of the shares?

The Lu family in Xingzhou.

Who's in charge of

the most famous

local property developer?

Lu Xueqiao.

He is

a bad partner.

That's it.

Miss Nan Lan,

did you buy my shares

because of the Lu family?

You're so smart.

Do you hate or love

the Lu family?

It's complicated.

It's a long story.

I don't think you're interested,

and I don't have time to talk about it.

Alright.

Richard.

Have a good trip back to Europe.

I have a deep regret

coming to Xingzhou this time.

What is it?

It's that you refused to marry me.

If I accepted it,

would you dare to marry me?

Many people in Xingzhou believe

I'm a witch.

They said I killed my husband

and cooked him in a soup.

There must be a lot of rumours

around a beautiful and rich woman

like you.

What if

the rumours are true?

I knew

you were joking.

Go tell your partner

about our deal

and tell him,

as the big boss I've decided…

I have a bad feeling.

I've made up my mind to suspend construction work.

What? Why?

That would be the most magnificent building

in Xingzhou.

Right.

As the big boss,

I'm very happy to own this building,

including

the right to suspend construction work.

Alright, Richard.

This building

has nothing to do with you.

No matter how surprised you are,

you can't do anything about it.

Second Young Master.

You freaked me out.

Am I that scary?

Lihua, don't be scared.

Don't be scared.

Even if you are not afraid of being caught by Second Young Mistress,

I’m afraid.

Don't

do this again.

Hello?

Hello.

My dear Richard brother.

Are you okay?

No way.

You're going back to Europe?

I'm looking forward to

celebrating the building completion

and get drunk with you at the ceremony.

How come?

You never

mentioned anything

about selling shares.

Would that help if I had told you?

If your family

had so much money

to buy my shares,

you wouldn't have

delayed the payment of investment.

Right.

That's true.

Then...

Can you

introduce the mysterious boss

to me as soon as possible?

You know her.

What?

I know her?

Miss Nan Lan.

Who?

Who?

Richard,

what does

Nan Lan want to do?

Let me tell you.

You can't sell your shares to her.

Absolutely not.

Do you have the right

to talk to me like this?

We've signed the contract.

It's useless to yell at me.

Goodbye, Lu Xueqiao.

If you have a chance to go to London,

I'll treat you

to a drink.

Hello?

Hello, Richard.

I knew

you were kidding.

I've got the cheque.

I forgot to tell you

that the beautiful Miss Nan Lan

decided to suspend construction work.

Suspend construction work?

For how long?

You have to ask her.

Hello?

Hello?

Xueqiao.

What's wrong?

She's trying to

back our family into a corner.

What's going on?

The construction work will be suspended.

All of our money

has been invested in that building.

Nan Lan must know about

our loan at the bank.

She trapped us on purpose.

This evil woman.

I must kill her.

Xueqiao.

Calm down.

Calm down and think about it.

There must be a way out.

Shut up!

If your Jin family

was as rich

as Nan Lan,

would I end up

like this?

Get lost!

Get lost!

Hello, please

put Long on the phone.

Long. Lin Longqing.

Long.

It's me, Lu Xueqiao.

Are you free

tonight?

Do you want to

play mahjong together?

Okay, see you then.

Miss.

The documents and the seal

are locked in the safe.

So,

the Lu family's fate

is locked in our safe.

Lu Xueqiao

is so stupid.

He invested all his money

in this building

and even cooperated with

that selfish Richard.

It's so ridiculous.

Tao.

If I suspend construction work for six months,

will Lu Xueqiao hang himself?

Your investment will also be affected

if you suspend construction work for six months.

I don't care.

As long as I can hinder the Lu family,

I don't care about the money.

Did you go too far

this time?

If you know

how I was treated unfairly

for a man

and what the Lu family

did in return

back then,

you will understand me

and even say

I should have done this earlier.

What do I not know?

It's just that

we're running a hotel

after all,

I'm afraid…

Don't worry.

What should come will come sooner or later.

Am I right?

Bro, what's wrong?

I heard something broken downstairs.

Ms. Huang said

you broke things several times this month.

Bro,

sister-in-law has lost weight.

You should treat her better.

What made you think I treated her badly?

I heard you scolding her

from downstairs.

Since Xuelin left,

our family's business

has been counted on me.

I was so stressed out,

so I took it out on my wife.

Do I have to listen to you?

That's not what I meant.

I mean

you can talk to me

about business.

Let me help you.

Fine.

The building

I showed you that day

belongs to someone else now.

How could this happen?

Aren't we the property developer?

Do you think it's the same as usual?

Ever since Xuelin left,

much of the company's money

has gone missing.

How could we

build such a big building

on our own?

We only have

35% of the total shares.

We're not the controlling shareholder.

Next,

the remaining shares

were bought by our enemy.

What should we do?

Do you have any ideas?

Well…

It's too complicated.

It's giving me a headache.

It's really hard for you.

Now you know how hard it is for me?

Then shut up and talk less.

And you, Huang.

Keep your mouth shut.

If you dare to say something you shouldn't say,

I'll teach you

a lesson.

Tao.

I need to go to the old house

pay tribute to my mother.

I thought you forgot.

Today is mom's birthday

when she was alive.

How can I forget?

Tao, get me changed.

Okay, Miss.

[Long]

Hai.

Why are you still standing here?

Don't you need to prepare something?

Long,

you know

I don't kill people.

Who told you to kill people?

You asked me to set fire.

After that,

all the people in the house

will be burned to death.

Isn't that killing people?

Useless!

It's an empty house.

Why do you want me to burn an empty house?

Right.

Why does he want us to burn an empty house?

Mr. Lu,

are you lying to me?

Long,

I will never lie to you even if I lie to everyone else.

You know

we used to be

relatives,

but this woman

is so unreasonable.

Mrs. Lu was angry about her.

Forget it.

I can't disclose our family shame.

I won't talk about it.

I want to

teach her a lesson.

I do that

for the Lu family.

As for the old house,

she's not living there anymore.

It's always empty.

No one is there.

I can guarantee that.

My eldest brother

was also killed by her

in that old house.

I don't think

she would dare to live there.

Hai,

did you hear that?

No one lives there. Go.

Who's next?

It's my turn.

Two Wan.

[Respectful Hall]

It's a shame

for that old house to be burnt.

When Nan Lan's mother

was the Heavenly Lady,

my grandma

took me to visit her there.

That house

was very beautiful.

Five Wan.

I won.

Catch Five.

Long, you're so lucky today.

Long.

Alright, let's call it a day.

Come on. Thank Mr. Lu.

Thank you, Mr. Lu.

Thank you, Mr. Lu.

Mother.

Happy birthday.

I miss you.

I'd better throw

this photo,

or you'll be sad whenever you see it.

No.

Just hang it there.

It always reminds me

not to trust men.

Nan Lan

is very resourceful in Xingzhou.

She also has a good relationship

with the Westerners.

The Dragon King Gang took a risk

to help you.

I wonder

how you're going to reward my men.

Long.

I am

short of money lately.

Are you kidding me?

How is that possible?

Nan Lan.

Hey, Nan Lan.

It's me, Bruce Lee,

your primary school classmate.

Why are you here again?

Miss Nan Lan

has already rejected you.

We have feelings for each other.

Tao.

Nan Lan.

I have admired you since childhood.

Back then,

you always brought fruits to school

and never forgot to give them to me.

Then,

after you became the Heavenly Lady,

I followed you

in every Pageant on Immortals.

I'm still single.

You're no longer young.

You'd better find someone to rely on.

I am your best choice.

I remember I borrowed money to you last year

and the year before last year.

You haven't returned it yet.

Well, I...

Sir, please stay here.

You can't go up.

No.

I'm not here to borrow money.

I'm here to propose.

Marry me.

Nan Lan,

I will always wait for you here.

Nan Lan,

until you say yes.

Nan Lan.

My sweetheart.

Dear Nan Lan.

Who are you?

Miss, don't look back.

Nan Lan.

It's the one who's pursuing you.

-The Portuguese. -Don’t go.

I'm your Hendry.

I just like

the way you look like.

You are

so mysterious,

so oriental,

and so beautiful.

You're really beautiful.

Nan Lan.

Sir, you can't go up there.

Get down!

Sir.

Nan Lan.

Who are you?

Come down, you.

I'm telling you. Get up.

I'm telling you, I...

Miss Nan Lan.

The two customers

are fighting downstairs.

The broke many things.

Who are they?

How dare they fight at the Goddess Hotel?

Hendry

and Mr. Lee,

who usually comes to see Miss Nan Lan.

They are both your pursuers.

Why did they fight?

What could it be?

They fought for you.

Kick them out.

I have a ball tonight.

I don't want to ruin my mood.

Yes.

Kick them out.

Let go of me!

Why did you hit me?

Let go of me!

What are you laughing at?

What are you looking at?

Stop laughing.

It's all your fault.

Nan Lan.

Nan Lan!

Nan Lan!

Nan Lan!

Nan Lan!

Nan Lan!

Nan Lan!

Why don't you accept

my love?

Get out of my lawn!

Nan Lan,

I've loved you for 30 years.

It started since we were in primary school,

Nan Lan.

Really, Nan Lan.

What are you doing?

Don't pick my flowers.

Nan Lan.

These flowers

represent my feelings for you.

Please marry me.

I'll leave for Portugal

in three days.

Come with me.

Let's meet my mom together.

Nan Lan,

don't believe

this poor guy.

He's coming for your money.

Shut up!

You're slandering me.

You scoundrel!

How dare you hit me?

Come here.

Fight somewhere else.

Don't stain my lawn.

According to the rules of our Westerners,

let's fight.

Fight?

Nan Lan.

What are you doing?

Stop joking.

You can't point a gun at people.

I have a bullet in my gun.

If you let me shoot you,

I'll give you a chance

to pursue me.

Are you going to

shoot your future husband?

Listen carefully.

It's a chance.

If you want to succeed,

I'm afraid one bullet is not enough.

Don't worry.

I'm good at shooting.

I won't kill you.

Leg

or shoulder?

I don't need you two to fight.

Which one of you

would like to take

my bullet of love?

You

or you?

God bless me.

Are you giving up?

Bruce Lee.

Nan Lan.

You are not a good woman.

You deceived my feelings.

You deceived my feelings.

What about you, Hendry?

God,

why are you

so vicious?

How can you point your gun

at the man who loves you so much?

It seems that

you won't give up this chance.

Fine, take this.

No, no, no.

Mom.

These men are so timid.

Smooth talkers.

They're selfish and foolish.

They always try to gain the biggest benefit

at the lowest cost.

Didn't he

take your bullet

back then?

Don't mention him.

By the way,

it's really hard

to find a man like him.

Miss, just a gentle reminder.

The Pageant on Immortals is approaching.

You haven't gone deer hunting yet.

The Heavenly Lady needs to hunt deer

as a sacrifice

for the Pageant on Immortals.

I don't know who made this rule.

This rule

is so cruel.

Why?

I told you.

The owner of this building has been changed.

She wants to suspend construction work.

Who dares to ask why?

How long will it be suspended?

She didn't say that.

Well,

we have the largest number of people.

Give us a date.

In this way,

I can go back

and explain to my people.

Well,

who will explain to me then?

I don't know

who's gonna pay us Yu family as the subcontractor.

If you have any questions,

just ask her.

Who is she?

Nan Lan,

the owner of the Goddess Hotel,

the Heavenly Lady of Xingzhou.

You all know

where to find her.

If we don't work for one day,

we'll be hungry for one day.

What are you talking about?

Miss Qi

won't let everyone starve.

But the elders and children

are waiting for me to transfer money back home.

Don't worry.

It's such a big project.

They can't suspend construction work forever,

right?

I think it's good.

We can finally take a break.

Tomorrow,

I'm gonna sleep in.
