You've done well!
Thank you, Jade Emperor!
They were really scared badly?
I'd very much want to look at their faces!

Those
Will be able to cure Xiaoqi's illness?
Exactly.
Have they been given to Xiaoqi?
According to Taishang Laojun's prescribed amount,
[Taishang Laojun = Lao-zi, one of the deities]
I've already sent it over.
It smells really great!
No wonder Xiaoqi is cured after eating them.
Your Majesty, I have one question.
Go ahead.
Now, the Dong family is the richest in the world!
If any greedy ones wants to steal their wealth,
what should we do?
Don't worry about this.
I've already solved this.
Please explain further.
Those gold
It'll be no problem
if the Dong family wants to donate them.
Otherwise, don't even mention stealing,
as long as the Dong family is slightly unwilling,
those gold will turn into shit.
This method Isn't it brilliant?
It's wise!
Your Majesty is wise!
It's too wise!
Wise! Wise!
Wise!
Di-Gua. (also means sweet potato)
Di-Gua.
King Father is really muddleheaded.
This Di-Gua is not that Di-Gua.
So Taishang Laojun is well aware
of the entire matter long ago.
I reckon he wants to release Xiaoqi.
Why?
I would like to take a walk outside
-Xiaoqi!
-Xiaoqi!
Let her be.
Xiaoqi, I have good news!
Dong Yong has recovered fully!
Really?
God of Fortune said it himself.
He even said
the majority of these Di-Guas were dug out by him.
Then
Did he return to the school for lessons?
Is Auntie Wenping very worried about him?
Did he mention me?
You know it too.
What happened between you and him
must not be widely known.
So, I didn't probe further.
That's true
Then
Since he's alright now
You must work hard to pull yourself together,
get that?
I got it.
Di-Gua.
Di-Gua!
-Morning.
-Morning.
Di-Gua!
What's up?
You're your old self!
Alright, it's good that you're back!
Yea Come Di-Gua. I missed you so much!
Let Uncle take a look.
Are you hurt any where?
Yea, let's see!
No, don't! Enough!
Alright, please spare me!
It seems like not only his health is fine,
his mood is not bad too!
But
Don't force yourself to be cheerful.
If you feel like crying, just cry!
Yea, don't pretend anymore!
I know after Xiaoqi has left
You must be feeling terrible!
Everyone knows that. You don't have to
Why is it Xiaoqi again?
Aren't you sad?
Not even the least bit unhappy?
You don't care the least bit?
What's wrong with you all?!
My mother has already told me.
Xiaoqi is only a dog.
By the way,
what's the homework for the past 2 days?
Tell me
Where did the teacher stop?
Can you all pay more attention in class?
After Shuai-ge's left, there's no one I can ask.
[Shuai-ge = Handsome dude, refers to Haoqi]
This
-Goodness!
-You!
Am I dreaming?
-Does it hurt?
-Yes.
It's not a dream then.
In the past, Di-Gua would start and end
each sentence with Xiaoqi.
But now I don't get it!
That's right
-Is Dong Yong dreaming?
-I don't know.
Does it hurt?
Am I Di-Gua? Am I a parasite?
Am I a parasite?
Are you dreaming?
-No idea.
-Does it hurt?
Yes! Very much!
One would be able to laugh happily if one forgets.
If Dong Yong Tong-xue
[Tong-xue = student]
is able to forget the past,
clear that shadow within the heart,
start life afresh,
that's certainly a kind of good fortune.
Admirable! Admirable!
-You've got a point.
-Right
Yes.
It seems like you all still don't understand anything.
This Admirable Admirable
-You've got a point
-Right Right Right
One sentence!
I say
In future,
never ever mention Xiaoqi in front of Dong Yong.
Because Xiaoqi is an old friend who makes him upset.
Because it's a great influence
on Dong Yong's mind and body.
Influence
Admirable!
You've got a point!
Yes, yes, yes
Got that?
Got it!
Here I come!
Are you waiting for the new Shuai-ge?
[Shuai-ge = Yuanbao referring to himself, haha]
-Di-Gua!
-Saijin!
From Haoqi?
Read it quick for us to hear!
What's there to hear?
Miss Saijin can recite it on her own!
Saijin, how are you doing?
Di-Gua, please don't mind it that
the first recipient of my letter is Saijin.
This
It's just that practices are really tough.
I couldn't find time to write another letter.
Don't worry, I'll definitely address the next letter to you!
Wait up!
What about me?
For consecutive days, we haven't stopped.
We finally reached the capital.
Although I've imagined this place
in my dreams for countless times,
But
the surprises had been endless when I'm within.
This time,
it had really been a great eye-opener for me.
It's strange.
Although the matter was in total secrecy,
news of our defeating Yun Jianfei in Qiancheng Province thus saving His Highness
had spread throughout the capital.
In the blink of an eye, I'd become a great hero.
Everything in Qiancheng Province
had become the past.
I knew my life
would change completely from this day onwards.
Your Highness,
wasn't my fight with Yun Jianfei kept secret?
Young people, are still young people.
Our respects to Your Highness!
No need to stand on ceremony.
What's wrong, Your Highness?
So I'm not the only candidate?
That's right.
Other than you,
I've selected 20 other cream of the crop.
Pardon me for being bold.
Why didn't you select Dong Yong too?
Qiancheng Province is a small place.
I only want the best from that place.
They are different.
They are either royalties or noblemen.
This is Shangguan Haoqi.
He's your imaginary foe,
also the great hero who defeated Yun Jianfei.
For this Martial Arts' Scholar contest,
he's also the last candidate selected.
In the next month,
together with Huo Jiao-tou,
[Jiao-tou = Chief Instructor]
I'll select the most outstanding from you all
to take part in the Martial Arts' Scholar contest.
There's a newcomer today.
I'll explain the rules clearly one more time.
Since there are so many competitors for
this Martial Arts' Scholar contest,
from all corners of the country
Everybody has something up their sleeves or their own plots.
Some people will take the chance
to check out others, cause chaos on purpose
and attack the other candidates.
In the face of this,
under no circumstances will candidates
under His Highness's wing be allowed to display
their martial arts outside his residence.
People who break the rules will be disqualified!
Are you all clear?
YES!
Hurry up!
What are you thinking about?
Don't be anxious Don't be anxious
If I don't think, how would I win you?
You should do this
I'll go here
-It's better for me to teach you.
-You finished thinking?
Let me tell you
If you meet such a situation
-Get lost! Why are you being such a pain?
-Are you sick in the mind?
Let's continue
I'm going here
Haoqi Da-ge!
[Da-ge = Big Brother]
How do you do?
I'm Zhang Xi.
May I ask
which noble family do you descend from?
Your surname is Shangguan
You must be the 2nd grade official's,
[1st grade official is the highest]
Shangguan Rong's son?
Haoqi Da-ge!
Let me do the introductions
Here, here
This is Lu Jing.
He's the first Shao-ye
[Shao-ye = Young Master]
of the capital's no.1 Lu family.
My respects Brother Shangguan
This is Mo Hua.
He's the grandson of the current great General.
Brother Shangguan Nice to meet you
I'm Zhang Xi.
Among them,
my position is considered to be the lowest
I can't compare with you, Haoqi Da-ge!
I'm not the son of Shangguan Rong.
I'm from the Qiancheng Province.
My grandfather was once a 4th grade official.
-Here, here Let's continue.
-4th grade official?
Let's go on
4th grade official?
Pardon me for being ignorant
May I ask, where is the
Qian Qian-what province you just mentioned?
Qiancheng Province.
The place's main produce is silk.
The materials you're wearing now
are mostly from there.
Although it's not some good place
I'm tired Tired
There's a test tomorrow morning.
How do you do?
I'm Nie Tong.
How do you do?
You don't feel too great
after being treated like that on your first day here?
It's nothing.
I've tried worse.
Look at him.
Like a dog
He just wants to get some kind of official post
in front of Ma Cheng.
Who is Ma Cheng?
Ma Cheng is very popular in this contest.
They said it's been decided.
He's going to represent His Highness for the contest.
There's such a thing?
Ma Cheng is His Highness's relative.
His grandfather is on great terms with the Emperor.
His family reputation is shocking!
Besides, the Ma family has already proposed
a marriage on Ma Cheng's behalf to His Highness.
So that His Highness can marry off his sister,
Princess Jianwen to the Ma family.
They can be even closer then.
If all of that is true,
don't you think
everything has been laid for Ma Cheng?
If that is so,
what are the rest of us doing here?
Will we able to understand
His Highness's and the court's thinking?
I've already said before
-Hurry up!
-Wait for me!
Too slow!
Aren't you all ashamed?
Only the clothes of those at the front
won't be dirtied by the flying sand.
Purity
The most impressive mark of honour.
On the contrary,
those filled with mud are the failers.
From then onwards,
I must run to the very front!
I must fight for my honour!
I will definitely win!
Haoqi will definitely make it!
Yes!
I have a lot of confidence in him!
All of us too!
Shuai-ge!
SHUAI-GE!
I'm praying for your good fortune here!
The capital's in that direction!
Stop it!
Shuai-ge!
I'm here
Praying for you!
Me too!
We'll definitely support you!
I support you even more!
-Work hard! Go for it!
-Work hard!
Your Highness, please
Jianwen,
have you come on purpose
to take a look at your future husband?
Alright
Good!
What's the name of that candidate?
He's called Shangguan Haoqi.
Shangguan Haoqi?
He's the person who saved you that day?
Yes, that's him!
As compared to my imagination, he
What?
He's even more dashing
than what you imagined?
There are few people who learn martial arts
who has this "aura" of talent
Here's the dishes you've ordered
Here Here
Cheers, cheers, cheers!
Why are you all looking at me like that?
Is it because my clothes are too nice?
I'm sorry
Here Here
You treated us to this meal for no reason.
Just what do you need us to help you with?
Hurry up and say it
You petty fellow!
Must there be a reason to treat friends?
I don't believe you.
You always have some kind of reason
Right.
Bingo
You all really have no idea?
Today is my
My
Alright
Just take it that we're celebrating
for receiving Shuai-ge's letter
Then why must you choose today?
I've already promised my mother
that I'm going home for dinner tonight.
You can eat dinner at home at any time.
Am I right? Am I right?
If I want to eat my mother's cooking,
it might not even happen once in 100 years.
That's why I must go home!
-You
-Then
I've ate your meal.
Don't say I don't respect you.
-I take my leave now.
-You!
-I've got to go too!
-Fatso!
You dare to disappoint me?
How would I dare to do that?
Do you think I don't want to eat here?
It's not that easy for you
to treat such a good meal
The important point is
That sister is coming to my house tonight.
[I don't know who he's talking about though]
I haven't seen her in a long while
I gotta keep her company.
I'm leaving.
You! You!
Ignores friends when there's girls
Di-Gua!
You're my best friend.
-Today
-Shao-ye
Old Master wants you to go home now for dinner.
-I?
-What? You?
You small fry
-You dare to leave me too?
-Alright, Yuanbao. I
Just go Just go
Why don't I do this?
After I finish dinner,
I'll come back and accompany you, alright?
Just go
Shao-ye, let's go
Why
Why did this happen?
You all still say you all are my good friends?
Even my birthday
You all can't remember!
On other people's birthdays
They have their mothers at home to cook for them.
Today's my birthday.
I don't even have a red egg.
[Tradition: Red eggs on birthdays. mm]
Not even 1!
I don't have
Only by eating red eggs on one's birthday
then will it be a birthday!
Happy Birthday!
It's a pity there's no red egg.
Won't it be the same by giving longevity buns?
What are you doing here?
You want to bicker or fight?
Today, I ought to ridicule you.
But Forget it.
I feel the same way as you do.
Today's your birthday too?
Your friends left you a table with food.
Mine Left after eating.
We are people on the same boat.
Those without mothers
Are so pitiful
Here, drink up!
Looking at the way you eat
Your zodiac sign must be The Dog?
Who's the dog? You're the dog!
Look!
So cute I must be The Pig.
No wonder You look like you're lazy.
Yours must be The Snake.
Why would I?
Because you're horrible enough!
Come over!
Here
Actually,
I'm like you, I'm The Pig.
Pig?
You're older than me by 12 years!
I was kidding!
What time were you born?
The hour of the "Chou".
[Chou also means ugly.]
What you laughing at?
I can tell
Let me tell you,
I was born at the hour of the "Hai".
SO!
You're older than me!
This damned toad!
He's actually younger than me!
So sweet
You smile so sweetly
Like flowers that bloom
Here, here
Drink some more!
The girl has the looks.
The guy has the talent.
The pretty girl and the talented guy.
Both are suitable for each other.
Please Please sit.
Do you still remember?
Yes Yes Yes
We sang a duet at that Shuai-ge's house before
What Shuai-ge?
Now, I'm Qiancheng Province's new Shuai-ge!
If you're a Shuai-ge,
then I'm a fairy!
You're just
an old woman who's born at the "Chou" (ugly) hour!
How could you say that?
Now,
you should at least call me "Jie".
[Jie = elder sister]
Jiejiejiejiejie Jie!
Good!
Good!
Call me that again!
Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you.
You had to open the door for me personally.
Nephew, don't do wishful thinking
[Not a real nephew, but cos' Di-Gua calls him uncle]
When the shit-collector comes every night,
I open the door myself too.
At night, I get the servants to leave.
Why is that so?
Why?
What else can you do at night other than sleep?
Why would I pay servants for sleeping?
Besides,
I have to give them beds too.
If I don't get them to pay fees for the beds,
they should be happy.
That's why
I make them leave at night.
I'll let them come again in the morning.
Like this,
I can save 8 hours of pay for each person.
Nephew,
you said you're here to look for Yuanbao.
What's the matter?
It's like this.
I remembered that today is his birthday.
So I made him some red eggs.
But he's not in. He went out again.
I say, Nephew
Since you are Yuanbao's good friend,
you should talk to him.
Get him to come home often.
Don't eat outside.
My heart aches
Alright, I know.
I'll let him know you heart aches for him
Why will my heart ache for him?
My heart aches for money!
The expenses of eating outside is so high!
We are poor people, we've no money
I say
You're giving that to Yuanbao?
Uncle,
I better wait for him to return.
Wait then.
Nephew!
-Uncle.
-You've fallen asleep.
What time is it now?
You You're still waiting here?
Uncle, then I had better go back first.
Go on
-You rest earlier too
-Alright Alright
Hurry up and go home
Since he's a good friend,
you should give a better gift.
Like A red packet?
[People put money in the red packet $$]
Or some instant taels?
[Which is like cash in today's world. Ha!]
Only these few red eggs
What a scrooge!
This can be used for the servants' meals tomorrow.
-You
-You! You! You!
Don't malign me!
I'm very innocent!
Don't you malign me.
I didn't malign you!
I didn't have anything to do with
this stupid, ugly and shallow no. 465!
[Long ago, she thought he was one of his suitors and named him no.465.]
Facing you, I'm not only 30%
conscious after drinking.
I'm 70% conscious!
Thinking about something happening between us makes me
Nothing happened between us!
Will I give birth?
No No way!
Yea yea! It's not possible!
Since none of us had any losses,
we'll just take it that we're even.
We're even?
I haven't even
Shush! Let's go quickly!
It won't be good when there's more people.
This involves our reputations.
If anyone sees this,
we won't be able to prove ourselves innocent
even if we jumped into the river.
Exactly.
I'll go out first.
Congratulations! Congratulations!
Things are good now!
You! My clear reputation
has been ruined by you idiot!
Mine's the one that's ruined by you!
One talented, handsome man
in Qiancheng Province
You ugly freak!
You!
What do you think we should do now?
How would I know?
What should be done?
Damned Yuanbao?
You think about it slowly first.
I'm going down
Damned Yuanbao! You scumbag!
Fu Yuanbao!
Don't run!
Don't run! Don't run!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
Move away!
Hold it there!
Stop!
Stop stop stop!
I'll see where you run to
Hold it there!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
What are you doing?
Damned Yuanbao!
I don't believe I can't catch you!
Look! It's not a light fall
This is so maddening!
Damned Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao! Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbaoooo!
You jerk!
You're still hiding from me now?
Are you embarrassed?
Isn't this so embarrassing?!
Now, everyone knows that
Fu Yuanbao and I
spent last night together in Huan Xi Tavern.
I don't care! You must take full responsibility!
Get married! This is a good thing!
There's finally someone who wants Cuiniang.
This is a match made in Heaven.
How am I going to be a human being in future?
That child, Yuanbao, is really pitiful.
When I went to the market today,
everybody there said
the magistrate's daughter dolled herself up
like a lunar new year's painting.
She's attracting so much attention in town.
And this Yuanbao is full of vigour.
He couldn't resist the temptation
of the painting at one instant.
Then he
Alright, that's enough, Yong-er's mother
Don't keep saying that girl is bad.
What kind of person is Yuanbao?
His life is a complete, ridiculous mess!
It's not strange at all that
he did something that's against the proprieties.
Father!
This matter
This matter could be a misunderstanding.
You're still helping him?
Mother, Yuanbao is my good friend.
I'm telling you.
You're not allowed to hang out with him in future!
In case you're led astray
One's family can't be too wealthy.
It's not some good thing.
Look at that magistrate and Boss Fu.
Their children have been spoiled rotten
Exactly!
Luckily our Dong family isn't that rich
That's right.
This The gold in the ground?
Use that to expand the cloth shop.
You still want to expand it?
Just these few accounts are enough
to give me such a headache!
If we expand the cloth shop,
I'm afraid in future
I'll have less time to keep you all company in future
Precisely.
Men cannot be too wealthy
Otherwise, they'd want to have concubines.
Mother
if not,
we can use these money to help the poor.
Relief disasters and aid the poor
We can set up free schools.
We can even make roads and build bridges.
Help the poor open up land for crops.
These money can help many people!
Yes! I think that's possible!
In fact, doing good deeds
is stronger than burning incense and
praying to the deities.
These will be good deeds done in secret.
Our Dong family leads an ordinary life.
That's why Yong-er isn't wilful
like Yuanbao and Cuiniang.
Precisely!
Old Master, Madam, tea
Did we say we wanted to drink tea?
You all didn't?
Take it away! Such a waste!
Shao-ye, have a cup of tea?
Dong Yong, I'll wait for you at the cloth shop.
----Yuanbao----
Yuanbao!
Yuanbao?
Over here Over here
Yuanbao!
Softer! Stupid Di-Gua!
Why are you so smelly?
Garbage is smelly for sure.
I've been carrying rattan baskets, hiding in garbage all day.
There are even people who throw bones at my head!
Alright, alright
Rats squirming here too
-Squirming there, squirming here!
-Alright, alright
I didn't dare to come out.
This morning,
everyone in Qiancheng Province knows that
I'm a despicable lecher!
And! The most important thing is
They think I've no judgment!
That I don't mind anything! (anyone for this case :p)
Can you have some respect for words?
My feelings
You You
Won't understand
Enough, enough
Alright
Do you have money?
Can you lend me some?
Have you got it wrong?
You're borrowing money from me?
How would I dare to go home?
Didn't you?
I'm escaping.
How can you do this?
Now that things are like this,
how can you run away from it?
Like what Lao Fu-zi taught us,
men should step out with courage.
We have to bear responsibility.
Res Responsibility?
What What responsibility do I have? Tell me!
Now that things are like this,
Cuiniang's reputation is completely ruined!
Of course you have to step out.
You have to choose the day to marry her.
Even you think me and her?
So did you?
NOOOO!
If I did, I'd be disgusted to death!
Will I still be alive?
I'm innocent!
Then the more you shouldn't run away!
You need to step out
and explain this matter clearly to everyone.
Me?
Having been like who I was in the past,
who would believe me?
Who would pity me?
That's true.
If I step out,
death will be my only outcome.
I'd rather be a caveman deep in the woods
than to be that ugly hag's husband!
Alright, alright
Listen to me! Yuanbao! Yuanbao!
I won't! I can't hear you!
I can't hear you! I can't hear you!
Yuanbao!
Why?
I, Fu Yuanbao
If I weren't born in a family filled with the "foul stench of coins" (means very rich)
If I didn't have a father who loves money
And if his father
Didn't collude with the magistrate
And if he
Still has his mother who dotes on him
If the person with him that night
wasn't that ugly hag
If it was Shuai-ge,
Li Yong,
Xinghua,
Di-Gua they all
all of this,
this ridiculous, shameful matter
wouldn't have happened.
Yuanbao.
I'm sorry.
Say!
What do you think is wrong with Heaven?
Shuai-ge is forever unlucky.
You always meet some unbelievable things.
And me?
It's always the ridiculous and laughable things!
Heaven,
you're unfair!
You're unfair to me!!!!!
Yuanbao,
actually you're not too bad.
Others are in worse pain
when compared with you
You don't understand at all
I'm leaving. You take care.
Yuanbao,
I only have 1 with me now.
The rest are waiting for you at home
Happy Birthday!
This is the most delicious food I've ever had!
So
So delicious
Take care!
Remember to come back earlier!
Thank you, Di-Gua!
I'll wait for you!
The bridge before the inn
Maybe both of us cannot reach it
Laughing bitterly without reason
There is only torment
Repeated practice of hugging
It cannot be seen after dawn
Cannot accompany you until the end
Will accompany you until we are old
I do not know
Who else can be like me and let you depend on
I only wish
You will remember well how good I am

You've done well!
Thank you, Jade Emperor!
They were really scared badly?
I'd very much want to look at their faces!
Http://cafe.naver.com/mjbox.cafe
Those
Will be able to cure Xiaoqi's illness?
Exactly.
Have they been given to Xiaoqi?
According to Taishang Laojun's prescribed amount,
[Taishang Laojun = Lao-zi, one of the deities]
I've already sent it over.
It smells really great!
No wonder Xiaoqi is cured after eating them.
Your Majesty, I have one question.
Go ahead.
Now, the Dong family is the richest in the world!
If any greedy ones wants to steal their wealth,
what should we do?
Don't worry about this.
I've already solved this.
Please explain further.
Those gold
It'll be no problem
if the Dong family wants to donate them.
Otherwise, don't even mention stealing,
as long as the Dong family is slightly unwilling,
those gold will turn into shit.
This method Isn't it brilliant?
It's wise!
Your Majesty is wise!
It's too wise!
Wise! Wise!
Wise!
Di-Gua. (also means sweet potato)
Di-Gua.
King Father is really muddleheaded.
This Di-Gua is not that Di-Gua.
So Taishang Laojun is well aware
of the entire matter long ago.
I reckon he wants to release Xiaoqi.
Why?
I would like to take a walk outside
-Xiaoqi!
-Xiaoqi!
Let her be.
Xiaoqi, I have good news!
Dong Yong has recovered fully!
Really?
God of Fortune said it himself.
He even said
the majority of these Di-Guas were dug out by him.
Then
Did he return to the school for lessons?
Is Auntie Wenping very worried about him?
Did he mention me?
You know it too.
What happened between you and him
must not be widely known.
So, I didn't probe further.
That's true
Then
Since he's alright now
You must work hard to pull yourself together,
get that?
I got it.
Di-Gua.
Di-Gua!
-Morning.
-Morning.
Di-Gua!
What's up?
You're your old self!
Alright, it's good that you're back!
Yea Come Di-Gua. I missed you so much!
Let Uncle take a look.
Are you hurt any where?
Yea, let's see!
No, don't! Enough!
Alright, please spare me!
It seems like not only his health is fine,
his mood is not bad too!
But
Don't force yourself to be cheerful.
If you feel like crying, just cry!
Yea, don't pretend anymore!
I know after Xiaoqi has left
You must be feeling terrible!
Everyone knows that. You don't have to
Why is it Xiaoqi again?
Aren't you sad?
Not even the least bit unhappy?
You don't care the least bit?
What's wrong with you all?!
My mother has already told me.
Xiaoqi is only a dog.
By the way,
what's the homework for the past 2 days?
Tell me
Where did the teacher stop?
Can you all pay more attention in class?
After Shuai-ge's left, there's no one I can ask.
[Shuai-ge = Handsome dude, refers to Haoqi]
This
-Goodness!
-You!
Am I dreaming?
-Does it hurt?
-Yes.
It's not a dream then.
In the past, Di-Gua would start and end
each sentence with Xiaoqi.
But now I don't get it!
That's right
-Is Dong Yong dreaming?
-I don't know.
Does it hurt?
Am I Di-Gua? Am I a parasite?
Am I a parasite?
Are you dreaming?
-No idea.
-Does it hurt?
Yes! Very much!
One would be able to laugh happily if one forgets.
If Dong Yong Tong-xue
[Tong-xue = student]
is able to forget the past,
clear that shadow within the heart,
start life afresh,
that's certainly a kind of good fortune.
Admirable! Admirable!
-You've got a point.
-Right
Yes.
It seems like you all still don't understand anything.
This Admirable Admirable
-You've got a point
-Right Right Right
One sentence!
I say
In future,
never ever mention Xiaoqi in front of Dong Yong.
Because Xiaoqi is an old friend who makes him upset.
Because it's a great influence
on Dong Yong's mind and body.
Influence
Admirable!
You've got a point!
Yes, yes, yes
Got that?
Got it!
Here I come!
Are you waiting for the new Shuai-ge?
[Shuai-ge = Yuanbao referring to himself, haha]
-Di-Gua!
-Saijin!
From Haoqi?
Read it quick for us to hear!
What's there to hear?
Miss Saijin can recite it on her own!
Saijin, how are you doing?
Di-Gua, please don't mind it that
the first recipient of my letter is Saijin.
This
It's just that practices are really tough.
I couldn't find time to write another letter.
Don't worry, I'll definitely address the next letter to you!
Wait up!
What about me?
For consecutive days, we haven't stopped.
We finally reached the capital.
Although I've imagined this place
in my dreams for countless times,
But
the surprises had been endless when I'm within.
This time,
it had really been a great eye-opener for me.
It's strange.
Although the matter was in total secrecy,
news of our defeating Yun Jianfei in Qiancheng Province thus saving His Highness
had spread throughout the capital.
In the blink of an eye, I'd become a great hero.
Everything in Qiancheng Province
had become the past.
I knew my life
would change completely from this day onwards.
Your Highness,
wasn't my fight with Yun Jianfei kept secret?
Young people, are still young people.
Our respects to Your Highness!
No need to stand on ceremony.
What's wrong, Your Highness?
So I'm not the only candidate?
That's right.
Other than you,
I've selected 20 other cream of the crop.
Pardon me for being bold.
Why didn't you select Dong Yong too?
Qiancheng Province is a small place.
I only want the best from that place.
They are different.
They are either royalties or noblemen.
This is Shangguan Haoqi.
He's your imaginary foe,
also the great hero who defeated Yun Jianfei.
For this Martial Arts' Scholar contest,
he's also the last candidate selected.
In the next month,
together with Huo Jiao-tou,
[Jiao-tou = Chief Instructor]
I'll select the most outstanding from you all
to take part in the Martial Arts' Scholar contest.
There's a newcomer today.
I'll explain the rules clearly one more time.
Since there are so many competitors for
this Martial Arts' Scholar contest,
from all corners of the country
Everybody has something up their sleeves or their own plots.
Some people will take the chance
to check out others, cause chaos on purpose
and attack the other candidates.
In the face of this,
under no circumstances will candidates
under His Highness's wing be allowed to display
their martial arts outside his residence.
People who break the rules will be disqualified!
Are you all clear?
YES!
Hurry up!
What are you thinking about?
Don't be anxious Don't be anxious
If I don't think, how would I win you?
You should do this
I'll go here
-It's better for me to teach you.
-You finished thinking?
Let me tell you
If you meet such a situation
-Get lost! Why are you being such a pain?
-Are you sick in the mind?
Let's continue
I'm going here
Haoqi Da-ge!
[Da-ge = Big Brother]
How do you do?
I'm Zhang Xi.
May I ask
which noble family do you descend from?
Your surname is Shangguan
You must be the 2nd grade official's,
[1st grade official is the highest]
Shangguan Rong's son?
Haoqi Da-ge!
Let me do the introductions
Here, here
This is Lu Jing.
He's the first Shao-ye
[Shao-ye = Young Master]
of the capital's no.1 Lu family.
My respects Brother Shangguan
This is Mo Hua.
He's the grandson of the current great General.
Brother Shangguan Nice to meet you
I'm Zhang Xi.
Among them,
my position is considered to be the lowest
I can't compare with you, Haoqi Da-ge!
I'm not the son of Shangguan Rong.
I'm from the Qiancheng Province.
My grandfather was once a 4th grade official.
-Here, here Let's continue.
-4th grade official?
Let's go on
4th grade official?
Pardon me for being ignorant
May I ask, where is the
Qian Qian-what province you just mentioned?
Qiancheng Province.
The place's main produce is silk.
The materials you're wearing now
are mostly from there.
Although it's not some good place
I'm tired Tired
There's a test tomorrow morning.
How do you do?
I'm Nie Tong.
How do you do?
You don't feel too great
after being treated like that on your first day here?
It's nothing.
I've tried worse.
Look at him.
Like a dog
He just wants to get some kind of official post
in front of Ma Cheng.
Who is Ma Cheng?
Ma Cheng is very popular in this contest.
They said it's been decided.
He's going to represent His Highness for the contest.
There's such a thing?
Ma Cheng is His Highness's relative.
His grandfather is on great terms with the Emperor.
His family reputation is shocking!
Besides, the Ma family has already proposed
a marriage on Ma Cheng's behalf to His Highness.
So that His Highness can marry off his sister,
Princess Jianwen to the Ma family.
They can be even closer then.
If all of that is true,
don't you think
everything has been laid for Ma Cheng?
If that is so,
what are the rest of us doing here?
Will we able to understand
His Highness's and the court's thinking?
I've already said before
-Hurry up!
-Wait for me!
Too slow!
Aren't you all ashamed?
Only the clothes of those at the front
won't be dirtied by the flying sand.
Purity
The most impressive mark of honour.
On the contrary,
those filled with mud are the failers.
From then onwards,
I must run to the very front!
I must fight for my honour!
I will definitely win!
Haoqi will definitely make it!
Yes!
I have a lot of confidence in him!
All of us too!
Shuai-ge!
SHUAI-GE!
I'm praying for your good fortune here!
The capital's in that direction!
Stop it!
Shuai-ge!
I'm here
Praying for you!
Me too!
We'll definitely support you!
I support you even more!
-Work hard! Go for it!
-Work hard!
Your Highness, please
Jianwen,
have you come on purpose
to take a look at your future husband?
Alright
Good!
What's the name of that candidate?
He's called Shangguan Haoqi.
Shangguan Haoqi?
He's the person who saved you that day?
Yes, that's him!
As compared to my imagination, he
What?
He's even more dashing
than what you imagined?
There are few people who learn martial arts
who has this "aura" of talent
Here's the dishes you've ordered
Here Here
Cheers, cheers, cheers!
Why are you all looking at me like that?
Is it because my clothes are too nice?
I'm sorry
Here Here
You treated us to this meal for no reason.
Just what do you need us to help you with?
Hurry up and say it
You petty fellow!
Must there be a reason to treat friends?
I don't believe you.
You always have some kind of reason
Right.
Bingo
You all really have no idea?
Today is my
My
Alright
Just take it that we're celebrating
for receiving Shuai-ge's letter
Then why must you choose today?
I've already promised my mother
that I'm going home for dinner tonight.
You can eat dinner at home at any time.
Am I right? Am I right?
If I want to eat my mother's cooking,
it might not even happen once in 100 years.
That's why I must go home!
-You
-Then
I've ate your meal.
Don't say I don't respect you.
-I take my leave now.
-You!
-I've got to go too!
-Fatso!
You dare to disappoint me?
How would I dare to do that?
Do you think I don't want to eat here?
It's not that easy for you
to treat such a good meal
The important point is
That sister is coming to my house tonight.
[I don't know who he's talking about though]
I haven't seen her in a long while
I gotta keep her company.
I'm leaving.
You! You!
Ignores friends when there's girls
Di-Gua!
You're my best friend.
-Today
-Shao-ye
Old Master wants you to go home now for dinner.
-I?
-What? You?
You small fry
-You dare to leave me too?
-Alright, Yuanbao. I
Just go Just go
Why don't I do this?
After I finish dinner,
I'll come back and accompany you, alright?
Just go
Shao-ye, let's go
Why
Why did this happen?
You all still say you all are my good friends?
Even my birthday
You all can't remember!
On other people's birthdays
They have their mothers at home to cook for them.
Today's my birthday.
I don't even have a red egg.
[Tradition: Red eggs on birthdays. mm]
Not even 1!
I don't have
Only by eating red eggs on one's birthday
then will it be a birthday!
Happy Birthday!
It's a pity there's no red egg.
Won't it be the same by giving longevity buns?
What are you doing here?
You want to bicker or fight?
Today, I ought to ridicule you.
But Forget it.
I feel the same way as you do.
Today's your birthday too?
Your friends left you a table with food.
Mine Left after eating.
We are people on the same boat.
Those without mothers
Are so pitiful
Here, drink up!
Looking at the way you eat
Your zodiac sign must be The Dog?
Who's the dog? You're the dog!
Look!
So cute I must be The Pig.
No wonder You look like you're lazy.
Yours must be The Snake.
Why would I?
Because you're horrible enough!
Come over!
Here
Actually,
I'm like you, I'm The Pig.
Pig?
You're older than me by 12 years!
I was kidding!
What time were you born?
The hour of the "Chou".
[Chou also means ugly.]
What you laughing at?
I can tell
Let me tell you,
I was born at the hour of the "Hai".
SO!
You're older than me!
This damned toad!
He's actually younger than me!
So sweet
You smile so sweetly
Like flowers that bloom
Here, here
Drink some more!
The girl has the looks.
The guy has the talent.
The pretty girl and the talented guy.
Both are suitable for each other.
Please Please sit.
Do you still remember?
Yes Yes Yes
We sang a duet at that Shuai-ge's house before
What Shuai-ge?
Now, I'm Qiancheng Province's new Shuai-ge!
If you're a Shuai-ge,
then I'm a fairy!
You're just
an old woman who's born at the "Chou" (ugly) hour!
How could you say that?
Now,
you should at least call me "Jie".
[Jie = elder sister]
Jiejiejiejiejie Jie!
Good!
Good!
Call me that again!
Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you.
You had to open the door for me personally.
Nephew, don't do wishful thinking
[Not a real nephew, but cos' Di-Gua calls him uncle]
When the shit-collector comes every night,
I open the door myself too.
At night, I get the servants to leave.
Why is that so?
Why?
What else can you do at night other than sleep?
Why would I pay servants for sleeping?
Besides,
I have to give them beds too.
If I don't get them to pay fees for the beds,
they should be happy.
That's why
I make them leave at night.
I'll let them come again in the morning.
Like this,
I can save 8 hours of pay for each person.
Nephew,
you said you're here to look for Yuanbao.
What's the matter?
It's like this.
I remembered that today is his birthday.
So I made him some red eggs.
But he's not in. He went out again.
I say, Nephew
Since you are Yuanbao's good friend,
you should talk to him.
Get him to come home often.
Don't eat outside.
My heart aches
Alright, I know.
I'll let him know you heart aches for him
Why will my heart ache for him?
My heart aches for money!
The expenses of eating outside is so high!
We are poor people, we've no money
I say
You're giving that to Yuanbao?
Uncle,
I better wait for him to return.
Wait then.
Nephew!
-Uncle.
-You've fallen asleep.
What time is it now?
You You're still waiting here?
Uncle, then I had better go back first.
Go on
-You rest earlier too
-Alright Alright
Hurry up and go home
Since he's a good friend,
you should give a better gift.
Like A red packet?
[People put money in the red packet $$]
Or some instant taels?
[Which is like cash in today's world. Ha!]
Only these few red eggs
What a scrooge!
This can be used for the servants' meals tomorrow.
-You
-You! You! You!
Don't malign me!
I'm very innocent!
Don't you malign me.
I didn't malign you!
I didn't have anything to do with
this stupid, ugly and shallow no. 465!
[Long ago, she thought he was one of his suitors and named him no.465.]
Facing you, I'm not only 30%
conscious after drinking.
I'm 70% conscious!
Thinking about something happening between us makes me
Nothing happened between us!
Will I give birth?
No No way!
Yea yea! It's not possible!
Since none of us had any losses,
we'll just take it that we're even.
We're even?
I haven't even
Shush! Let's go quickly!
It won't be good when there's more people.
This involves our reputations.
If anyone sees this,
we won't be able to prove ourselves innocent
even if we jumped into the river.
Exactly.
I'll go out first.
Congratulations! Congratulations!
Things are good now!
You! My clear reputation
has been ruined by you idiot!
Mine's the one that's ruined by you!
One talented, handsome man
in Qiancheng Province
You ugly freak!
You!
What do you think we should do now?
How would I know?
What should be done?
Damned Yuanbao?
You think about it slowly first.
I'm going down
Damned Yuanbao! You scumbag!
Fu Yuanbao!
Don't run!
Don't run! Don't run!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
Move away!
Hold it there!
Stop!
Stop stop stop!
I'll see where you run to
Hold it there!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
Don't run!
Hold it there!
What are you doing?
Damned Yuanbao!
I don't believe I can't catch you!
Look! It's not a light fall
This is so maddening!
Damned Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao! Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbao!
Fu Yuanbaoooo!
You jerk!
You're still hiding from me now?
Are you embarrassed?
Isn't this so embarrassing?!
Now, everyone knows that
Fu Yuanbao and I
spent last night together in Huan Xi Tavern.
I don't care! You must take full responsibility!
Get married! This is a good thing!
There's finally someone who wants Cuiniang.
This is a match made in Heaven.
How am I going to be a human being in future?
That child, Yuanbao, is really pitiful.
When I went to the market today,
everybody there said
the magistrate's daughter dolled herself up
like a lunar new year's painting.
She's attracting so much attention in town.
And this Yuanbao is full of vigour.
He couldn't resist the temptation
of the painting at one instant.
Then he
Alright, that's enough, Yong-er's mother
Don't keep saying that girl is bad.
What kind of person is Yuanbao?
His life is a complete, ridiculous mess!
It's not strange at all that
he did something that's against the proprieties.
Father!
This matter
This matter could be a misunderstanding.
You're still helping him?
Mother, Yuanbao is my good friend.
I'm telling you.
You're not allowed to hang out with him in future!
In case you're led astray
One's family can't be too wealthy.
It's not some good thing.
Look at that magistrate and Boss Fu.
Their children have been spoiled rotten
Exactly!
Luckily our Dong family isn't that rich
That's right.
This The gold in the ground?
Use that to expand the cloth shop.
You still want to expand it?
Just these few accounts are enough
to give me such a headache!
If we expand the cloth shop,
I'm afraid in future
I'll have less time to keep you all company in future
Precisely.
Men cannot be too wealthy
Otherwise, they'd want to have concubines.
Mother
if not,
we can use these money to help the poor.
Relief disasters and aid the poor
We can set up free schools.
We can even make roads and build bridges.
Help the poor open up land for crops.
These money can help many people!
Yes! I think that's possible!
In fact, doing good deeds
is stronger than burning incense and
praying to the deities.
These will be good deeds done in secret.
Our Dong family leads an ordinary life.
That's why Yong-er isn't wilful
like Yuanbao and Cuiniang.
Precisely!
Old Master, Madam, tea
Did we say we wanted to drink tea?
You all didn't?
Take it away! Such a waste!
Shao-ye, have a cup of tea?
Dong Yong, I'll wait for you at the cloth shop.
----Yuanbao----
Yuanbao!
Yuanbao?
Over here Over here
Yuanbao!
Softer! Stupid Di-Gua!
Why are you so smelly?
Garbage is smelly for sure.
I've been carrying rattan baskets, hiding in garbage all day.
There are even people who throw bones at my head!
Alright, alright
Rats squirming here too
-Squirming there, squirming here!
-Alright, alright
I didn't dare to come out.
This morning,
everyone in Qiancheng Province knows that
I'm a despicable lecher!
And! The most important thing is
They think I've no judgment!
That I don't mind anything! (anyone for this case :p)
Can you have some respect for words?
My feelings
You You
Won't understand
Enough, enough
Alright
Do you have money?
Can you lend me some?
Have you got it wrong?
You're borrowing money from me?
How would I dare to go home?
Didn't you?
I'm escaping.
How can you do this?
Now that things are like this,
how can you run away from it?
Like what Lao Fu-zi taught us,
men should step out with courage.
We have to bear responsibility.
Res Responsibility?
What What responsibility do I have? Tell me!
Now that things are like this,
Cuiniang's reputation is completely ruined!
Of course you have to step out.
You have to choose the day to marry her.
Even you think me and her?
So did you?
NOOOO!
If I did, I'd be disgusted to death!
Will I still be alive?
I'm innocent!
Then the more you shouldn't run away!
You need to step out
and explain this matter clearly to everyone.
Me?
Having been like who I was in the past,
who would believe me?
Who would pity me?
That's true.
If I step out,
death will be my only outcome.
I'd rather be a caveman deep in the woods
than to be that ugly hag's husband!
Alright, alright
Listen to me! Yuanbao! Yuanbao!
I won't! I can't hear you!
I can't hear you! I can't hear you!
Yuanbao!
Why?
I, Fu Yuanbao
If I weren't born in a family filled with the "foul stench of coins" (means very rich)
If I didn't have a father who loves money
And if his father
Didn't collude with the magistrate
And if he
Still has his mother who dotes on him
If the person with him that night
wasn't that ugly hag
If it was Shuai-ge,
Li Yong,
Xinghua,
Di-Gua they all
all of this,
this ridiculous, shameful matter
wouldn't have happened.
Yuanbao.
I'm sorry.
Say!
What do you think is wrong with Heaven?
Shuai-ge is forever unlucky.
You always meet some unbelievable things.
And me?
It's always the ridiculous and laughable things!
Heaven,
you're unfair!
You're unfair to me!!!!!
Yuanbao,
actually you're not too bad.
Others are in worse pain
when compared with you
You don't understand at all
I'm leaving. You take care.
Yuanbao,
I only have 1 with me now.
The rest are waiting for you at home
Happy Birthday!
This is the most delicious food I've ever had!
So
So delicious
Take care!
Remember to come back earlier!
Thank you, Di-Gua!
I'll wait for you!
The bridge before the inn
Maybe both of us cannot reach it
Laughing bitterly without reason
There is only torment
Repeated practice of hugging
It cannot be seen after dawn
Cannot accompany you until the end
Will accompany you until we are old
I do not know
Who else can be like me and let you depend on
I only wish
You will remember well how good I am
