[My Wife is A Thief]

[Episode 20]

Why are you back?

Aren't you on duty tonight?

I miss you.

Why are you sweating so much?

I had a nightmare.

I dreamed you wanted to divorce me.

Why would I want to divorce you?

Ask yourself.

Don't worry.

No matter what,

I won't divorce you.

I'm going to get you a towel.

[Recluse with Widespread Reputation]

Young Master,

the carriage is ready.

Wait a moment. I'll be right out.

[Duke's Mansion]

Young Master,

it's almost time.

[Duke's Mansion]

Let's go.

[Yongxing Gate]

Next one.

What is this?

Our own rice.

Leave.

Next one.

Wait.

Who's in the carriage?

What?

How dare you stop Mr. Su's carriage!

He's just doing his job.

Don't make it hard for him.

Sir.

Come on. Search carefully.

Sorry.

Mr. Su is from a noble family.

-Let me do it. -My Lord.

Mr. Su, where are you going?

Young Master Gongyang,

something happened

to my small business in Taizhou.

I have to go there to deal with it today.

Please search quickly.

I'm in a hurry to leave the city.

I can leave now, right?

What's wrong?

Mr. Su, can you please open your mouth?

Young Master Gongyang,

do you have any special hobby?

Mr. Su, I'm not like you.

Mr. Su, come on.

Gongyang Maocai,

are you done?

I have tooth decay.

What does it have to do with me leaving the city?

Don't go too far.

Mr. Su,

please.

Let him go.

[East Gate]

Su Jinning,

if we can't get the map out of the city,

your sister will die.

Do you think your sister left home

to run away from the marriage?

She has been detained as a hostage.

If we can't get the map out of the city,

they will kill Jinzhen.

Can you be gentle?

Listen,

this thief

is too bold.

He hid in this wardrobe,

waiting for a chance to assassinate the supreme leader of the Zichen Department.

Can you believe that?

But My Lord,

if he wanted to kill you,

don't you think he hit you too gently?

You don't even have a swelling.

My Lord,

let's not waste the ointment.

You know nothing.

What if I have internal injuries?

So you need to analyze this.

Right?

Nothing in the Zichen Department is missing.

Then why did the thief come here?

My Lord,

are you sure you really met a thief?

Did you hallucinate?

What do you mean?

I saw him with my own eyes.

The thief

is eight-foot tall

and fierce-looking.

He looks exactly like Zhong Kui.

But this is ridiculous.

Did he come here

just to slap you?

My Lord,

why don't you think harder?

Who did you offend recently?

How is that possible?

I am the supreme leader of the Zichen Department.

Oh no.

Did my wife find out

about my private money?

I don't know what's wrong with Young Master.

He usually doesn't change these things.

Today, he insisted on making me change the flowers and plants.

Who knows what's wrong with him?

Just change them if he wants.

The flowers are not blooming anyway.

It's better to replace them with some that won't bloom.

Young Madam, put it there.

I'll do it later.

Okay.

Willow leaves are innocent. Why do you have to be a thief?

Miss Su,

see you at Peach Blossom House at midnight today.

Xiao Qiu.

Xiao Qiu.

Xiao Qiu.

What's wrong, Young Madam?

Did someone come in just now?

I... don't think so.

You don't think so?

I'm not the God of Door.

I can't guard the door all the time.

Well...

What's wrong? Is everything okay?

Nothing.

Go back to work.

I thought something was missing.

[High-minded spirit and pure action]

Why is no one here?

We agreed to meet at midnight.

Are you waiting for me?

Lord Xu, you came here for night patrol?

Don't come over.

Or I'll kill you before I die.

Why haven't you stabbed me?

I...

I asked you to come, right?

Willow Leaf Thief Liu.

Or should I call you Honey?

Willow Leaf Thief Liu's hat is quite heavy.

Darling,

I'm just kidding.

Is it funny?

Yes, I think.

I won't disturb you then.

Continue to do your things.

How much longer do you plan to deceive me?

I asked Xiao Qiu.

When Treasure Pavilion was on fire,

you were not home.

On the day Lord Hu was assassinated,

Mother said you left in advance

and didn't show up until I went home.

Besides, the servants

didn't find any trace of you going back.

Also, concerning the case of tracking down Hei Limao,

after that, I read the file.

The bandits in the mountain

were wiped out when Gu took office.

So it's impossible that you met bandits.

I have suspected you many times.

I also have enough reasons to believe

that you are Willow Leaf Thief Liu.

But as long as you say you're not,

I would believe you.

But do you plan to lie to me forever?

Then...

it's over between us.

I'll pack my things

and leave Xu's Mansion.

I'll leave you.

Right,

after I leave, make an excuse.

You can say I cheated on you

because I've fallen in love with someone else.

You can also say I've been kidnapped by bandits.

Anyway, don't make Mother worried.

There is a storybook hidden under the bed.

I wanted to give it to Xiao Qiu on her birthday.

But now it seems I won't be able to wait till that day.

Just make an excuse and help me give it to her.

And Xiao Dong.

She looks smart

and is old enough to get married.

Remember to remind Mother

to marry her off into a good family.

It's getting cold lately.

Remember to put more clothes on.

Don't catch a cold.

I'm being nosy.

Xu Muchen,

take care.

You're wearing your uniform.

You're here to arrest me, right?

Go ahead.

I don't want to arrest you

or let you leave me.

But...

♫People who are in love♫

♫Reach out to each other♫

♫The world is vast♫

♫The warm destiny left us with a split-second♫

♫No matter how many storms it takes♫

♫The steps of chasing dreams are no longer complicated♫

♫Because we can answer confidently♫

♫Happiness is there♫

When were you sure

I'm Willow Leaf Thief Liu?

What's wrong?

In the Zichen Department,

you already knew I was in the wardrobe?

How did you know it was me?

You've been taking care of me these days.

The smell of medicine is all over you.

Of course I could smell it.

Really?

I should have

let you stay wounded.

Right, Honey,

you went to the Zichen Department last night

to steal Lu Rongchang's ledger, right?

Then why didn't you take it in the end?

I'm a righteous thief.

Okay.

My righteous thief wife.

It's late.

Why don't we go home?

I want to sit here a little longer.

Okay.

[Jinxin Embroidery House]

[Jinxin Embroidery House]

My health is deteriorating.

If anything happens to me one day,

I'm not worried about Rong

because she has Xu Muchen to take care of her.

But you

are still single.

You're not feeling well?

Then I guess you can't eat

the pig's feet with soybeans.

I'm going to throw it away.

Don't.

Don't waste food.

I just want you to be happy.

Give it to me.

You want me to be happy?

Take care of yourself first.

Just eat.

You're ungrateful.

Don't turn around.

Listen to me. Eat first.

Lord Gongyang,

why are you here?

I came to ask you something.

Let's talk downstairs.

What do you want to ask me?

Xu Muchen said

you're an accomplice of Willow Leaf Thief Liu.

Willow Leaf Thief Liu?

How could I have anything to do with her?

What about the one upstairs?

What's your relationship with him?

Oh no.

Does he already know who he is?

What on earth

is your relationship with him?

Him?

He's my brother.

Brother?

You're an orphan.

How come you have a brother?

We're not related by blood,

but we grew up together.

We often visit each other

and take care of each other.

We're closer than real siblings.

It's just that

you've never met each other.

You visit

and take care of each other.

Yes.

He's the closest to me in this world.

He's the closest to you in this world.

What about me?

What?

Qin Mumu,

I'm from a noble family.

I have a strong family background and a promising future.

But you have made a fool of me.

What's wrong with you today?

What's wrong with me?

We were in sync with each other.

We had heart-to-heart talks.

We made vows.

Are they all fake?

Did you lie to me

to fob me off?

Actually...

Enough.

I understand your feelings now.

Since you have someone you like,

I wish you a long and happy marriage.

I...

He misunderstood, right?

He's jealous.

Look.

I'm not the only one wanting you to be happy.

You're being nosy.

Why are you here?

I came for you.

Why?

Don't you want to accompany your good brother?

I want to see you.

The night view of this street is very beautiful.

Let's take a walk together.

Don't you want to accompany your good brother?

Why do you keep mentioning him?

All he thinks about

is to marry me off as soon as possible

to get a bride price.

What kind of good brother is he?

He wants to marry you off as soon as possible?

He's daydreaming.

He should consider if there's anyone who wants me.

There is.

There is someone who wants you.

There is someone who wants you.

♫The night was so quiet, with only the moonlight left♫

♫Lanterns were sunk in sleep under the eave♫

♫I looked into your eyes and forgot to speak♫

♫Love gradually grows♫

♫I fell in love quietly at this moment♫

♫My cheeks turned red secretly♫

Do you like this lantern?

Yes.

♫The song you played♫

When I was little,

I never had anything like this.

♫Has become what I miss in the twinkling of an eye♫

I could only watch other kids play.

♫Like flowers in the wind♫

Boss,

I want one of each kind.

♫Falling down from the sky♫

Okay.

♫I stayed in my memory♫

No need for that.

Just buy one for fun.

♫If you were the world♫

♫I'd be willing to be the sunset glow♫

♫Turning the sunset into sweet words♫

♫Showing you romance like flowers♫

[Sipai Pavilion]

♫I miss you so much♫

♫I'm recalling the years when I had you♫

♫I think about nothing else♫

♫But growing old with you♫

[Duke's Mansion]

She failed to find the jade pendant.

She also failed to steal Lu Rongchang's ledger.

Right?

Yes.

Your disciple is incompetent.

What's the use of keeping her?

And Xu Muchen.

I thought since he's the son of an old friend,

I should take care of him.

But what he did

has really jeopardized the overall situation.

For the people,

I think

it's time for you to sacrifice her.

Your Grace.

[Zichen Department]

Lord Liu,

you want to see me?

Someone wants to see you.

Have some tea.

Thank you, Brother Muchen.

Long time no see.

I thought I could never see you again.

Considering what happened to your parents,

my condolences.

That night,

I happened to go out.

When I went home, I found my parents...

Father, Mother.

Father! Mother!

Mother!

Sister!

What happened?

Father!

Father!

The ledger...

The footstool...

Father. Father!

Father!

After that night,

fortunately, you

asked Lord Gu to send me out of the capital to take refuge.

I hid my identity all the way.

Until a few days ago,

Uncle Liu brought me back to the capital.

I know

my family's case

must have something to do with the ledger

my father gave me before he died.

So I've been carrying it with me.

You've suffered.

Uncle Liu told me

you've been investigating my father's case.

Actually, the ledger

is related to my father's case.

Speaking of this,

your father died because of my father.

I won't let him die in vain.

Brother Muchen,

I'll give you the ledger.

But my father lost his life in order to protect it.

You must give me an explanation.

Don't worry.

I won't let the Hu family down.

Give an explanation?

Won't let down?

They're going to spend the rest of their lives together.

[Sanhe Pavilion]

Be careful.

[Liheng Inn]

Tell me.

Who sent you here?

[Liheng Inn]

Miss Hu.

Thank you for saving me, Brother Muchen.

After you came to see me,

I knew the mastermind

won't let it go.

He'll definitely find a chance to kill you.

That's why I followed your carriage.

Unfortunately,

they committed suicide by taking poison.

Thank you, Brother Muchen.

I'm going back to the inn now. I won't come out again.

Don't.

The assassins lurked here.

I think they already know

your whereabouts.

This inn is not safe anymore.

What should I do then?

I... I can't sleep on the street, right?

How about this?

Go to Xu's Mansion with me.

Brother Muchen,

if I go back with you,

I'm afraid Young Madam...

Don't talk too much after entering the mansion.

I have my own plan.

Young Madam.

Young Madam, bad news.

Young Madam.

What's wrong?

You failed to get the storybooks?

Young Madam,

now is not the time to joke.

C-Come with me.

Let go.

Can't you see I'm not done yet?

My husband will be back soon.

It'll be too late if I don't do it now.

You're so nice to Young Master.

How could he do such a thing?

So what's said in the storybooks is true.

Men are unfaithful.

They are fickle in love.

What's wrong with you?

Why are you so angry?

Don't you know?

Young Master...

Young Master is going to have a concubine.

Make yourself at home in Xu's Mansion.

After I take you to see my mother later, I will...

Honey.

Young Master,

how could you do this?

Young Madam was cooking for you.

It's okay. Ignore them.

Let's go.

Zhen, calm down.

I won't make you wronged.

Old Madam,

Young Master and Miss Hu are here.

Zhen, have a seat.

Mother.

Honey, you're here too.

Greetings, Old Madam.

Greetings, Young Madam Xu.

Considering what happened to your parents, my condolences.

Thank you.

Brother Muchen has brought the murderer to justice.

My parents

can rest in peace.

It's his duty to hunt down murderers and handle cases.

Miss Hu, it's no big deal.

Although it's Brother Muchen's duty,

I'm grateful to him.

I won't forget it.

You can't repay his kindness,

so you want to give yourself to him.

Mother,

Miss Hu has no one to depend on.

I want to let her live here for a few days.

Well...

We don't have a guest room in our mansion.

There are two rooms in the backyard.

Let Miss Hu live there.

I asked Xiao Dong

to make pickles in the rooms in the backyard.

They're smelly.

We can't make Miss Hu wronged.

I'll ask someone to clean them

and hire new servants

to specially take care of Miss Hu.

Zhen.

Where are you going?

I remember I stewed bones for the dog in the kitchen.

I think they are overcooked.

I'm going to throw them away.

Chen,

is there a misunderstanding between you and Zhen?

Mother, don't worry.

I'll explain to her.

That's good.

Miss Hu,

I'll ask Xiao Dong to serve you these days.

Just tell her if you need anything.

Thank you.

My father lost his life

in order to protect this wooden box.

But there is a locking mechanism in it.

I've never opened it.

This jade pendant

is my most cherished item all these years.

If I...

Keep it for me.

Since you're back safely,

I'm giving this back to you.

This is something left by your father.

To you,

it must be more important than your life.

Indeed, it's more important than my life.

So I can only feel relieved

when it's in your hands.

[Ledger]

[Ledger]

[Chang An Restaurant]

Wu Zhao,

guard the door.

Don't let anyone in.

Yes.

Uncle,

[Ledger]

Lord Hu lost his life

to protect this ledger.

But I just can't understand

its content.

This ledger

was given to Lord Hu by your father personally.

Lord Hu had studied it for many years,

but he couldn't figure it out.

Muchen,

what are you doing?

Uncle,

my father had a bottle of liquid medicine

that can hide characters.

The characters can reappear when exposed to fire.

[The evidence of Duke Su's treason is in Taizhou]
