[Sisterhood]

[Episode 32]

Bai Wei slapped my face in public,

and I could put up with it.

For the sake of the Lu Family,

I have the responsibility.

That's great.

I'll make a call

to Nan Lan.

Lu Xueqiao spends money extravagantly

while doing business.

He uses the bank's money,

and its interest is much higher than that of the market.

I've stalled him for so long.

Not only did he not go bankrupt,

but also repaid a large portion of his loans.

Someone is instructing him behind him.

Jin Biyun.

Not necessarily.

However, the old Mrs. Lu has passed away.

Unless she's still alive...

Forget it. I'll stop thinking about it.

Anyway, the truth

is about to come out.

-Miss Nan Lan. -Miss Nan Lan.

My dear sister-in-law.

Have a seat.

Xueting.

Just go back.

You're just a messenger.

It's not good for you to intervene too much in the things

between this couple and me.

Okay.

Today,

all of us can finally sit together.

If you have any disagreements,

just open your hearts

and take your time to have a chat.

I'm leaving.

You still looks so young and beautiful.

My dear sister-in-law.

No need to be that courteous.

Just call me Nan Lan.

In that case,

we won't be courteous.

Nan Lan.

The construction of that building

has been suspended for several months.

You're the big boss.

Just tell me

when we can start the work.

I promised Xueting to meet you,

but I didn't say I would talk about the building.

Is there anything else

we can talk about except for that building?

Have you forgotten what I said that day?

If Xueting had not been there,

someone would have

been killed by my gun!

Who is your family?

For what the Lu Family has owed to me,

you'll have to repay it doubly sooner or later!

But...

But what have we

owed to you?

Are you playing dumb?

Let's cut to the chase.

A week before Lu Xuelin went missing,

he took a large sum of money

from my family fund.

If he had planned this for a long time,

he must have left Xingzhou

with this sum of money.

As for where he went,

the Lu Family must know it.

If he's dead

as the rumor says,

what about the whereabouts of the money?

I've been calculating it.

The construction company of the Lu Family

has not used this sum of money at all.

Then it must be kept

in the old Mrs. Lu's safe box.

Lu Xuelin trusted

his mother the most.

You all know this.

The reason why I bought

the shares of that building

is to find out the whereabouts of the money,

and then find Lu Xuelin.

I have to find him whether he's alive or dead.

Didn't my eldest brother

die because of you?

It seems

you're indicating that he died because of us.

Besides, I've never seen

the money you mentioned,

neither in the company

nor in my mom's safe box.

Don't blame us

for everything.

If I have the money,

would I bear the shame

and come here to beg you to continue

constructing that building?

It looks like you really need money.

Of course.

But Madam Biyun is very rich.

There's a man called Long.

He should be

Lin Longqing from the Dragon King Gang.

He's been a Loan Shark all the time.

In recent months,

he has lent out much money.

Someone who knows the details said that

he was helping

Jin Biyun, the Second Young Master's wife

of the Lu Family, lend out the money.

When the old Mrs. Lu was still alive,

everybody just called you like that, right?

Madam Biyun.

Our Jin Family has declined.

I'm not like you,

who brought so many dowries.

With the current situation of the Lu Family,

we're almost unable to pay wages

to our servants,

let alone being a Loan Shark.

Are you the one

who made up this rumor?

Xueqiao.

You're still not aware of it?

She doesn't want to start the work at all.

She met us

just in order to humiliate us.

If you don't leave,

do you want to wait to be scolded here?

Nan Lan

has made up a lie

which sounds so real.

Lin Longqing.

He turns out to be a Loan Shark.

Luckily, my husband is not stupid.

Otherwise, before we could fight with our common enemy together,

you might have been incited by her

to start suspecting your own wife.

Right.

Right.

Master Xueqiao.

It's daytime.

What if someone sees us?

I thought

you've long forgotten me.

How is that possible?

I'm here today

to ask you something.

Come on.

What does Jin Biyun

usually do when I'm out?

She accompanies Master Zhanyuan to do his homework,

and coaxs him into falling asleep.

Does she do these things every day?

She has never gone out?

I don't dare to

answer your questions.

If I tallk too much about my boss's wife,

it's not good.

I asked you to say it.

Tell me now.

If you're

out for two days in a row,

she might go out for a day.

She has really cheated on me.

Do you know

where she usually goes?

I...

I know some of the places,

but I don't know the others.

What do you mean?

Master Xueqiao, I did everything

for your sake.

Cut the crap!

Tell me now!

I was worried that she might cheat on you,

so when she went out,

I followed her secretly.

But then I lost track of her.

I was lucky to keep up with her several times.

But she went to the same place,

the Long Mansion at the Ann Siang Hill Street.

It's really Lin Longqing.

That bitch!

I'll go strangle her to death now!

Master Xueqiao!

Don't be too reckless.

We need to think about it first before making a decision.

I've heard that Long is very fierce.

If he knows

I tell you about this.

he'll kill me.

Master Xueqiao!

Besides,

I have no evidence.

Jin Biyun won't admit it.

As the old saying goes,

well,

you have to catch the adulterer in bed, right?

Lihua.

I didn't expect you

to be so cunning.

When Jin Biyun goes out,

she always takes a rickshaw.

You could follow her to

the Ann Siang Hill Street by walking with your two legs?

It was not easy.

I also took a rickshaw.

You were so willing to invest money in it?

Where did you get the money?

I didn't give you the money.

Here's the thing.

I'm afraid

Master Xueting had also

sensed that Jin Biyun was doing something indecent.

So,

he also asked me to keep an eye on her.

Master Xueting gave me the money.

Otherwise,

how could I afford a rickshaw?

Xueting.

However, Master Xueqiao,

I don't believe in Master Xueting.

I'm worried that

the reason why he wants to find Jin Biyun's weakness

is to compete for the family property with you.

I can't betray you by helping him.

Though I spent his money,

I didn't tell him anything.

I was waiting to

get a chance to tell you about it.

But you've been

ignoring me for months.

Alright, alright.

Master Xueqiao.

Alright, alright.

Don't cry.

You are so loyal to me.

I will give you a status.

Really, Master Xueqiao?

Don't lie to me.

I'm really worried that

you can't defeat Jin Biyun.

You think that

I'm as soft as a cream bread,

right?

Jsut wait and see.

Sooner or later,

I'll let you watch a good show.

I don't know whether what Nan Lan said

is true or not.

If there was really such a large sum of money,

my eldest brother should have

asked our mom to keep it.

Right.

If that's the case,

our company's plight

will be solved, right?

But you've checked your mother's safe box,

there was no money.

I did check it.

But before I came back,

you were alone in my mom's room.

Did you take it away first?

I was wondering

why you didn't go out at night.

It turns out that you want to question me.

Just tell me whether

there's this sum of money.

For me, Jin Biyun,

my parents are dead,

and my sister has gone to Europe to study.

She won't come back anymore.

Our Jin Family also

has no other relatives in Xingzhou.

I only have one son.

But Zhanyuan's surname is Lu.

Why do I need so much money?

No matter how much I money I have,

it all belongs to the Lu Family, doesn't it?

I hope so.

In this world,

truth

will come to light sooner or later.

Xingzhou is not a big place.

Even if Nan Lan was talking nonsense,

she must have heard about

some rumors.

I even praised you on the way.

I didn't expect you to be really incited by Nan Lan.

Can't you sense it?

Nan Lan is destined to

be the Lu Family's enemy.

No.

To be precise,

she's the enemey of you and me,

and she wants us to die.

Your brother Lu Xueting

is just her helper.

Now we share the same destiny.

If we want to live,

we can only defeat Nan Lan.

Defeat her?

She's rich and powerful.

She's also a friend of the foreigners who hold power

in Xingzhou.

How do we defeat her?

The term of the current governor

will end soon.

The candidate for the next governor

has been determined.

Xueqiao.

The chance is just in front of you.

In the past, why could Nan Lan

be so domineering

in Xingzhou?

We can do

what she could do.

By then,

not to mention those

35% shares only,

we can even

possess the whole building.

You're so bold to say that!

Stop dreaming!

I, Jin Biyun,

was a kind person,

but I didn't expect that I would meet Nan Lan.

Your eldest brother died because of her.

Your mom died because she made her so angry.

Now,

we have no way to retreat.

Xueqiao.

That woman

has opened her bloody mouth,

and wants to eat us.

For the sake of the Lu Family

and Zhanyuan,

we can only fight with her to the end.

Honey, come and see!

That's Singapore!

A beautiful and sunny city!

That's where we're going to live

for the next few years.

But I don't like the sun.

Come on, honey.

I'm gonna be

the governor for the next few years.

And you're the First Lady.

So, look there and have a good look.

I only care about whether

they have gold and jewellery for me.

Yes.

Everything will be yours.

Let's go, girls.

Look over there.

Isn't it pretty?

Yes, yes.

Come on! Keep up!

So big.

There are cars.

It's a car.

Take a detour.

A fleet of cars will pass by here.

It's a fleet of cars

for the new governor of Xingzhou.

Governor?

The governor's fleet of cars.

The governor's fleet of cars.

Stop looking.

Let's take a detour.

Meihua,

we want to see the governor's fleet of cars.

I've never seen that in my hometown.

What's there to see?

There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

The head of our team is waiting for us for dinner.

Let's go.

Keep up.

Girls,

this is the Tofu Street.

Look.

Here are the noodles.

Please enjoy your meal.

Are you busy?

Meihua.

You've brought some new workers here again?

Yes.

Girls,

this is Mr. Noodles.

Say hello.

Hello, Mr. Noodles.

Hello.

Come often to eat noodles.

Okay.

Bai Yuechu?

You've never worked at a construction site in your hometown,

right?

You've never done any other job?

Tell me the truth.

To me, you don't look like someone with work experience.

But...

Please let me stay, Ma'am.

Since we both came to Xingzhou

from Sanshui,

I have no reason to drive you away.

But if you haven't worked at a construction site before,

you should know that

you'll have to bear hardships here.

I'm not afraid.

It's not a matter of whether you're afraid or not.

If you can't do the job that requires much strength,

you'll hurt yourself,

and it'll influence you all your life.

How about this?

I'll try not to let you work at the construction site first.

I'll arrange something else for you to do.

Thank you, Ma'am.

You're welcome.

You behave like an opera singer.

Sit down.

Ma'am,

when will we get up tomorrow morning,

and what time will we start to work?

Aren't you tired after taking a ship

for so long?

Tomorrow,

you can take a rest for a day.

Have a good sleep first.

Thank you, Ma'am.

[Xingtang Garden Pastry Store]

This pie's flavor

is different from that one's.

You can taste them first.

Taste them before you buy them.

This way, please.

I've packed them. Bye.

Thank you.

Good pastries.

Taste them, please.

Young Chief.

You're here.

Take a few catties of pastries back.

Aunt Yudie likes eating them.

I won't take the pastries.

I need your help.

You're asking me for help?

What do you want

by dragging me out?

I want you to treat me to something delicious.

The noodles at the Tofu Street are the best.

I'll treat you to them after you go back.

By the way,

there were ten newcomers joining us yesterday.

One of them seems

unable to work at the construction site.

If you like her,

I'll let her work with you.

No problem.

But you can't just treat me

to noodles.

I know a place

where the food is made with an authentic taste.

It must be Master Lu

who took you there.

I have no money to eat with you.

You can't refuse me.

I just want you to accompany me today.

We haven't gotten together

for several months.

Do you still regard me

as your friend?

I miss you.

Let's go.

It must be expensive here.

Do we need to

come to such a nice place?

Who said it's just the two of us?

Who else?

Guess.

Don't go.

I've promised him.

I don't care whom you've promised.

If you do this again in the future,

I won't talk to you.

Today is Aunt Yudie's birthday.

I remember you once said that

you don't know

when your mother's birthday is.

Your father also refused to tell you.

You even cried for this.

Today is July 19th,

and it's her birthday.

No matter how much she has disappointed you,

she's still your mother.

You should have a meal with her, right?

You don't have to say anything later.

Just sit with her.

That's what Ye Heming said.

Come on. Sit down.

Thank you.

Aunt Yudie.

Young Chief.

I'm full.

Enjoy your meal.

I have something to do. I have to go.

Xiaochan.

I'm full, too.

Why don't you go out to take a walk with me?

Today is my birthday.

I want to buy you a gift.

This is not appropriate.

It's your birthday,

and I should be

the one who buy you a gift.

It's okay.

Anyway,

just go out to take a walk with me.

Enjoy your meal.

I'm leaving.

This herbal tea is very effective in clearing heat.

You can drink more.

Is today really her birthday?

Of course.

I used to celebrate her birthday

with her on this date every year.

But she wants to celebrate it with you this year.

Thank you.

Then, wish her happy birthday on behalf of me.

Why didn't you say it yourself just now?

Right.

They ate too fast.

However,

this seems

to be Yudie's purpose.

Purpose?

What's her purpose?

To let us stay with each other alone.

She wants me to chase you.

For what I'm going to say next,

if it offends you,

please don't mind, Miss Ouyang.

I'm just telling you the truth.

Actually,

since I knew that

you had come to Xingzhou,

Yudie's biggest wish has been that

we can become boyfriend and girlfriend.

Mr. Ye,

please don't say something like this again.

But Yudie helped me a lot.

I don't want her to be sad.

Miss Ouyang,

I've never had a girlfriend before.

However, if you

don't think that I'm very bad,

we can give it a try.

Actually, in the past few months,

I've been observing you.

You've become the head of the Red Scarf.

You work on several construction sites at the same time.

All the bosses are very satisfied with

the Red Scarf,

esepecially with you.

In Xingzhou, it's rare to see

such a labouring woman

like you.

Most female workers have a low status.

But you've earned others' respect

through your own efforts.

I really admire you,

so I want to chase you.

It's not only what Yudie wants,

at least...

I...

We can become friends first.

We can get to know each other gradually.

What do you think?

Since I was kid,

I've enjoyed the maternal love

that should have belonged to you.

I feel sorry for you, too.

If we have the possbility to get married,

I will treat you well.

Let's eat.

The food will get cold if we don't eat now.

Well,

please give me one more bowl of rice.

Thank you.

Okay.

Let's eat.

Just stop the car ahead.

Thank you.

You haven't arrived yet.

Stop.

The noodles are delicious.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Welcome to eat noodles here next time.

Thank you.

Mr. Noodles.

Tianqing.

Do you want a bowl of noodles?

No, I'm full.

Can you manage

while working here all by yourself?

Thank Ling for taking good care of me.

My leg

has gotten better.

She only needs to help me open and close

the stall in the morning and in the evening.

I can handle

the rest of it.

Besides,

you think so highly of her

that you let her manage the biggest construction site.

How can I be a burden to her?

That's good.

You still need to

take good care of your own health.

I'll go back first.

Okay.

Tianqing!

Tianqing!

Xiuhe?

Xiuhe, you...

Tianqing.

Help me!

Stop!

Step aside!

Stop!

Don't go!

Stop!

What are you doing?

[Help to Write Letters]

Go to Miss Qi's room first.

Newcomers,

grab your weapons!

What's wrong?

Ma'am.

What's happening?

Some bad guys are coming.

Grab the handiest weapons.

Okay.

Step aside!

In broad daylight,

you're not allowed to commit murder in the Tofu Street.

That gentleman who writes letters!

Come and help!

You Red Head Women!

Do you want to die?

Step aside!

Why should we step aside?

This Tofu Village

is the place where we live.

Men

mustn't enter without our permission.

Please get out!

What kind of place is this?

Do you think we want to come here?

Hand that pregnant woman

over to us.

Then we'll leave immediately.

Why should we hand her over to you?

Don't ask for trouble.

We took someone else's money

and help him solve his problem.

We don't need to explain

the reason to you.

Fine.

Let me tell you the reason.

Firstly,

this is the place where we live.

You barged into our place with knives.

Do you want to commit murder?

The weapons in our hands

are not decorations.

Secondly,

I, Ouyang Tianqing,

hate those who bully the weak.

You two are strong

and holding sharp knives.

You bully a pregnant woman. Don't you feel ashamed?

Thirdly,

This pregnant woman

is our fellow who also comes from Sanshui,

and a red scarf of our Tofu Village.

You came here to catch her?

This was her home before she got married.

Everyone here

is her family.

Can we allow it?

No!

Get out!

Get out!

Get out! Get out! Get out!

[Tofu Village]

You Red Head Women

who are fearless of death!

Just wait and see!

That's right.

Just wait and see!

You still don't go?

Step aside!

Ma'am,

you're amazing.

We vented our anger!

No wonder you're so famous in Sanshui.

We finally understand the reason.

How can you be that happy?

If those two strong men

had fought with us,

some of us might have been hurt.

I'm scared as I'm thinking about it now.

In Xingzhou,

it's not something common.

It's just that

you happened to encounter such a case.

You two

couldn't even

catch a pregnant woman.

You lost to those several red scarves.

Don't you feel ashamed

as you continue to stay in the gangsters' circle?

Yes.

Are you blind?

From which gang did you

find these two losers?

These two men are really useless.

But their boss

is a well-known man

in Xingzhou.

He always handles everything well.

Xiuhe

just escaped into

the Tofu Village at the Tofu Street, didn't she?

She can't escape to anywhere else.

Alright.

I understand.

She regarded you as her junior sister apprentice,

and taught you how to sing opera.

These are all lies.

From the beginning,

this has been a trap.

She just wants to use your belly

to give birth to baby for her.

She has been the mistress

of a rich man.

Now she's old,

and she's worried that she can't get a share of the property.

This is so despicable.

I even listened to

Tan Yuqing's opera records.

I didn't expect this woman to be so dirty.

I just want to

pick my own ears till they get deaf.

At first, I didn't know

I was cheated.

I thought I was really drunk.

Later, I found out that

they drugged the wine.

What?

I should have killed myself at that time.

But the baby in my belly...

I've never conceived a child before.

If I die,

my baby will die, too.

This would be a sin.

Why should you be the one to die?

Those who hurt you should die.

Whether it's for yourself

or for the baby in your belly,

you have to stay alive.

But you shouldn't have

taken their money.

Right.

I thought

I couldn't be cheated for nothing.

If I got some money,

I might be able to live better for the rest of my life.

However,

as my baby grows up day by day,

when he is happy,

I also feel comfortable.

When he's unhappy,

he would kick me continuously.

I can't live without him anymore.

Tan Yuqing wants this child

in order to get a share of the property.

She won't treat my child well.

I can't give my baby to her.

Throughout this year,

for the money she gave me,

I've returned it all to her.

I didn't keep a penny.

The child

is growing up in my belly.

I can't give him to anyone else.

Miss Qi already said that

you would regret it.

As expected,

she was right.

My cousin guessed it?

What's your plan?

I won't cause trouble to the Tofu Village.

I'll leave when it's late at night.

Leave?

Yes.

I'll escape out of Xingzhou,

and go to the mountain.

Then I'll give birth to the child.

Even if I have to eat wild grass and bark,

I'll bring him up myself.

With your current condition,

you may give birth to the baby anytime.

Where can you go?

But I really can't make you get into trouble.

Tan Yuqing is not a good person.

She won't let it go just like that.

And the man Wu who stays with her

is even more ruthless.

I don't want to make my fellows get into trouble.

Don't say that.

We're all friends who come from Sanshui.

Miss Qi already told us to help you.

We will do our best

to help you.

How about this?

I'll go discuss with Miss Nan Lan first

about how to deal with Tan Yuqing.

It's not okay to

only rely on our own power.

Ling.

Gui.

Meihua.

You have to protect Xiuhe well.

Don't worry.

There are dozens of fellows here.

I don't believe that

anyone can take a living person away

from the Toufu Village.

Right.

That pregnant woman

used to be a Red Head Woman.

You didn't mention it.

In the past two years,

the Red Head Women have developed well in Xingzhou.

It's hard to deal with them indeed.

Really?

Haonan,

you're afraid of those women from the countryside?

You're trying to provoke me.

Wu,

do you think I'm a kid?

No.

I'm just afraid that

if you can't even solve this small problem,

it'll be a disgrace to you.

No hero would break into

the Tofu Village which is full of Red Head Women

in order to take a pregnant woman away

from them, right?

That would be a disgrace.

It seems

you have other plans.

The head of the Tofu Village

is called Ouyang Tianqing.

She's not old,

but what she says is authoritative for the Red Head Women.

You can exchange her for the pregnant woman,

right?

Haonan.

What a good idea.

Remember.

I never do

anything without getting prepared.

It's you!

Bitch!

Because of you,

I was severely scolded.

Me, too.

Who told you to hit her?

The head of the Red Scarf

is kind of a big shot.

Is it appropriate for you

to hit her so hard?

Let’s get to know each other.

I'm Haonan.

I don't care who you are.

Let me go.

Sure.

Give me that pregnant woman.

I'll release you immediately.

One for another.

This is a fair deal.

It's not really fair.

They hit you.

You two come here.

Come closer.

I've hit them back for you.

It's fair now.

That pregnant woman

is no longer a member of the Red Scarf.

The person she offended is rich and powerful.

You don't need to get into this trouble.

I never do

anything without getting prepared.

I know you.

You, Ouyang Tianqing,

have been in Xingzhou for a year.

You have a long way to go.

Make more friends.

and avoid making trouble.

Isn't that good?

Xiuhe is a member of the Red Scarf.

I won't

hand her over to you.

There's no room for discussion?

One

can't be too stubborn,

or he'll be cut into two halves,

just like this cigar.

How about this?

I'll give you another suggestion.

Just ask that pregnant woman

to leave the Tofu Village.

What do you think?

No!

Then this is your fault.

I took someone else's money and I have to help him solve the problem.

You hinder me from making money.

Don't blame me!

Who are you?

How dare you be

so rude in Haonan’s territory!

Go to hell!

Wait.

You look familiar to me.

It's really you.

Didn't you leave Xingzhou?

When did you come back?

Haonan.

Can we talk?

Don't move.

You're doing pretty well, brat.

Just so-so.

Last year at this time,

a dozen of men of the Dragon King Gang

made trouble here.

I think you were one of them.

Yes, he was.

He was the one whose head was trampled by our boss,

and he kept groaning.

It was me.

I saw your martial arts skills just now.

You've changed.

Where did you learn these skills?

You have a gun.

I’m not afraid of you!

I'm not here to kill you.

I just want you to hand that woman

over to me.

Impossible!

Not to mention you,

even if Lin Longqing comes,

I won't let him do that!

I'm no longer a member of the Dragon King Gang.

You don't have to

think about Lin Longqing.

I never do

anything without getting prepared.

I know

you once dated that Red Head Woman,

but you've broken up with her.

Don't tell me she's your wife.

It'll be useless even if you tell me that!

Haonan is amazing.

No wonder everyone says

Haonan is the most reliable person

in Xingzhou.

You even know

I once dated her.

But it's all in the past.

Don't mention it.

It's embarrassing.

If you know it's embarrassing, why did you come to save her?

I'm not here to save her.

I'm here to save you.

What do you mean?

You never do

anything without getting prepared.

Didn't you figure out

why I broke up with her?

Why?

Ye Heming took her away from me.

Who?

You're making up

such a ridiculous lie.

If it weren't for him,

I wouldn't have run away.

I didn't want to accept it, either.

I've been hiding somewhere and practicing

martial arts skills during this half a year.

My purpose is to take revenge by myself.

But it doesn't matter now.

People can die for money.

Since someone has

paid you,

I won't compete with you for her.

I just hope

when that red scarf dies,

she won't feel very comfortable.

Otherwise, my anger

can't be quelled.

I'm leaving.

Wait!

Are you tricking me?

It won't do me any good.

Is it necessary for me to trick you?

Run away after you finish your work.

There are many people in the Wanhe Hall.

You can't afford to offend them.

You can only hide.

No wonder you are so stubborn.
