" The Past Life " Episode 4

Aunt.

Please.

What's the smell? It smells so pleasant.

It's a cream from Italy.

I mixed it with the herbs that I grew in the palace for fun.

It helps improving body odour.

And it smells refreshing.

Do you want to try it?

You're so skillful.

It's an herbal recipe from my mother's family.

Once we've returned from Sichang,

Uncle and I will find a time to talk to your parents...

and ask for your hand in marriage, okay?

It's up to you, Aunt.

At first, we planned to have his grandmother be the matchmaker.

But it seems that she's not feeling well still.

We're afraid it won't be convenient.

You won't mind?

No.

Grandmother, please help me with the issue of Tan Ying and Maan Kaew.

You're trying to catch two fishes with one hand.

You want to have them as your first and second wife, right?

No, that's not the case.

Please stop playing dumb.

I know that you know me well.

When I see your face,

I already knew who you love.

Can you please talk to my mom about it?

Mom won't listen to me at all.

No, I can't.

I don't have any strength to fight with her.

And I don't want her to insult me.

Grandmother.

You're a man.

You've caused the problem,

so you have to solve it yourself.

If I were to solve it my own way,

you're not going to say anything?

If I were to ask you to make Jom's meals for tomorrow,

will you use excuses to...

get away with house chores?

I'm willing to do it.

After the Jao Bua Kam's services,

you should stay in Luang Prabang permanently.

Don't ever come back to Siam anymore.

I've already said goodbye to Jom.

But she won't allow me to leave.

You always use Jom as excuses.

No one can stop you from living there.

Jom said...

the prince will chase after me and bring me back.

Then let him try doing that!

You think you're that important to my son?

I dare not think so.

They're Jom's words.

Stop it! Stop using Jom as excuses!

Once we've gone back,

my son and Tan Ying will get married right away!

If you're still trying to find excuses to stay at the palace...

even if the palace owner is chasing you out of it,

others will know that you're thick-skinned...

and shameless!

They'll know that you're begging for Tan Ying's sympathy!

Princess.

I simply told her the truth.

I believe you.

But right now,

please wash off the blood and put a plaster on.

You've cut yourself. It's bleeding.

Son.

I fought to find you a true diamond.

But you're going to grab the fake worthless pearls.

Go away, you naughty child.

Mom, what's wrong?

Your face looks like it just hit a monsoon.

You know darn well.

Don't even act innocent.

Your skin still smells nice. And your lap is as warm as it used to be.

It's been ten years since I last slept on your lap.

I have missed the warmth of your lap, Mom.

If you're trying to make me forgive you for what you did with Maan Kaew,

you won't succeed.

Mom.

I will be happy.

Very happy.

I want to be with the person I love.

We will love each other until the day we die,

just like you and Father.

Why do you love that girl?

Mom.

Why do you have to break mine and Tan Ying's heart, Son?

Because I only see Tan Ying as a younger sister.

Mom.

In love,

there're a winner...

and a loser.

It's common.

Stop making excuses.

I won't listen to them.

I'm done preparing the hot water, Tan Ying.

You can go mix the water now.

Thank you.

Princess.

Just a while ago, Her Highness yelled at Princess Maan Kaew mercilessly.

She'll go back to Luang Prabang and never return for sure.

Finally, we've gotten rid of her.

Did I say something wrong?

In love,

there're a winner...

and a loser.

That's true, Prince.

But don't you even hope...

that I will allow myself to be the loser.

I wasn't born to lose.

How are both of you going to handle my grandson's issue?

I want you two to consider it carefully.

We all know him well.

If you're rough towards him,

he may leave and never come back again.

He's your only child.

Both of you raised him up.

You can't blame anyone for how he is.

His parents are to blame for that.

I want to talk to Payia alone, please.

Sure, Mom.

I love you, Payia.

I made you my daughter-in-law...

because my son loved you.

I didn't force him to marry you.

Therefore, you...

shouldn't push and force your son.

I don't want you to discriminate against Maan Kaew...

for being an outsider...

and a foreigner.

I'm worried about my son...

and our family honour.

I understand.

But we're adults.

We must always act merciful.

We must be tolerant...

of our loved ones. Everyone is equal.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I must be merciful to my husband, my child, and myself.

I need to protect my child.

I'm sorry, Mom.

But I must do this.

Prince.

You came so quietly.

I'm sorry for startling you.

It's okay.

Do you want to try some jasmine tea?

I dried some jasmine flowers and mixed them with tea leaves.

Let's talk.

Tan Ying.

Yes?

I want to return you your freedom.

I'm going to marry Maan Kaew.

Tan Ying.

I will bow down and apologise to Uncle and Aunt.

I will also have Maan Kaew come and apologise to you too.

Tan Ying, please listen to me.

Tan Ying.

Tan Ying, please listen to me.

Tan Ying.

There's no need for that.

Please try to understand me.

Please think of it as fate that I'm not good enough to be your husband.

We didn't do good things together in the past life.

Maan Kaew.

I hate her.

I'll never forgive her.

Wait, I hope you could understand.

Maan Kaew isn't to blame for all this

I'm to blame for all this.

You can't stop me from loving her.

I'll marry the woman I love.

And I love Maan Kaew.

Tan Ying.

Tan Ying.

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Help! Tan Ying passed out!

- Tan Ying! - Princess!

Prince, this way please.

Tan Ying!

- Tan Ying! - Princess!

Tan Ying!

- Ounruen, go get the medicine! - Yes!

Tan Ying!

Prince, why did she pass out?

Prince?

You don't have to speak.

- I... - Please leave.

Tan Ying is my older sister.

I can take care of her.

Tan Ying!

Tan Ying!

Give it back to them!

And tell them too that we're cutting ties with them.

Don't ever step into this palace again!

If anyone dies in this palace, don't ever come to pay respects!

But our daughter was the one who got shamed.

In this case, we can keep the engagement gifts.

You're still thinking about gifts?

Are they going to restore our daughter's dignity and reputation?

She got dumped by a guy before the wedding!

Keeping them...

will only bring misfortune!

Return all of them!

Don't return them yourself, let the servants do it!

Let them know that...

we will cut ties with them!

Maan Kaew has ruined our honour and humiliated us this much.

- I will... - Please stop, Payia!

Please tell him that...

I will send my son to bow down and apologise.

Yes.

Where is that Mister No Good?

Why did he do this to his Father, Mother and ancestral family?

Enough!

I already warned you. But you never listened.

You know that our child is stubborn.

We sent him overseas ever since he was a child.

You can't make him accept an arranged marriage...

and have him obey his parents as if he's still a kid.

I've chosen the best for our child.

Am I wrong?

If it's an object...

that you don't like,

it would be fine throwing it away.

But this is a person who has a heart.

Everything is ruined...

due to your interference.

The status of Tan Ying's family is as high as ours.

See?

They humiliated us in our own house.

They also sent their servants to humiliate us.

Aren't you embarrassed?

Maan Kaew!

Maan Kaew.

I've been freed!

I cancelled my engagement to Tan Ying.

- What? - Please marry me, Maan Kaew!

No!

I'm really freed from my obligation to Tan Ying.

We will get married legally.

No, you're mean!

You killed Tan Ying's love!

But I did it for you. I did it for our love.

I'm not getting married.

You should return to Tan Ying.

You should remain as her fiancée.

No.

I don't like Tan Ying. I love you!

I'm going to marry you only!

No!

Let go!

Maan Kaew!

Oh, my gosh!

Let go!

- Let go! - No!

We have to talk!

- I'm not talking! Please let go! - Stay still!

- Let go! - Maan Kaew, stop!

Stop! Stay still!

- Let me go! - Stop! Stay still!

- Please listen to me. - Let me go!

Stop it, Son!

How embarrassing and humiliating that was, Rangsiton!

That's very inconsiderate of you...

to mistreat a woman in her house.

- That's not the case. - Stop talking!

You still have Tan Ying's issue to take care of.

They returned all the engagement items like throwing food to animals.

Do you know how sad your mom is?

- Is she okay? - Well, go check on her!

I'm deeply sorry, Maan Kaew.

That my son...

mistreated you this way.

Yes.

Are you okay now?

I want to talk to you for a while.

Yes.

Go see your mom.

Go!

Let's talk directly.

I will accept your decision with no biases at all.

I just want you to be loyal to yourself.

Okay?

Yes.

Tell me honestly.

Do you love my son?

What say you, Maan Kaew?

Please tell me the truth.

If you love my son,

I will take care of everything...

according to tradition to honour your dignity...

and your ancestral family.

But if you don't love him,

I will not force you.

And I can assure you...

that from now on,

he will never mistreat you again.

You've taken care of me like your own child ever since I was little.

You're like another father to me.

Please decide for me.

Eat a little, Tan Ying.

You haven't even drank a sip of water.

Your body will be harmed.

Then,

let me go get Ounruen...

to come clean you and change your clothes.

Please think of it as fate that I'm not good enough to be your husband.

We didn't do good things together in the past life.

You can't stop me from loving her.

I'll marry...

the woman I love.

Maan Kaew.

Please leave.

Maan Kaew, I'm sorry...

for being emotional and mistreating you earlier this evening.

Father scolded me until my ears went numb.

Can you please forgive me, Maan Kaew?

Yes.

Please look into my eyes.

I want to see your eyes.

I want to know if you're willing to forgive me.

You're willing to forgive me, right?

Yes.

And you're willing to marry me, right?

Please answer me, Maan Kaew.

Father already told me.

But I want to hear from you...

that you're willing to marry me.

Yes.

Thank you, Maan Kaew.

From now on,

I'm going to save my body and heart for you only.

I will not mistreat you.

I will wait...

until our wedding day.

I wish you could accept my promise...

from my heart,

from my life,

and my soul that...

from this moment on and for the rest of my life,

I will only love you.

Only you.

I promise.

I...

promise the same.

There may be difficulties and thorns along the way.

I wish to follow you, unwilling to depart from you.

In every lifetime, we're unwilling to be far apart.

Our souls are attached, my love is only for you.

It must be the path of virtues that have lead us.

And the trails of sin that always evolve and change.

They've allowed us to meet.

We will have a happy ending together.

The prince is here.

Chase him out of here!

My daughter has been deeply hurt and humiliated!

How dare he come here and hurt her again!

He said he wants to bow and apologise to you.

I don't accept it!

He did all this to my daughter.

Does he think an apology...

would wash away the humiliation and damage done to her?

Go and chase him out of here!

Scram!

Scram, don't make me throw water at him!

Yes.

Tan Ying.

Please sit down and rest.

Otherwise, you would pass out again.

I'm okay now, Tua.

Tan Ying.

Tan Ying, I'll feed you.

You haven't eaten anything for a few days now.

I'm going to move out of this room.

Why?

I want to be alone.

I don't want to hear anything.

I don't want to know who's coming or going.

I don't care which Uncles, Aunts,

or any other relatives would come...

to express their sympathy...

or anguish for my misfortune.

I don't want to know any of that anymore.

From now on,

I will cut all ties with everyone.

Wait.

Where are you going to live at?

Tell the servants...

to clean out the empty room at the back of the palace.

Then move my stuffs out.

I'll move into that room immediately once it has been cleaned.

Okay.

Please try this to see if the taste is okay.

Okay.

It's very delicious.

Judging from its colour, I didn't think it would be delicious.

Where did you learn it from?

I didn't learn it.

When I was studying in England, I was on a budget.

I couldn't afford to always eat at restaurants.

So I practiced cooking for myself.

You're a master and lord,

but you're good at cooking.

You learned how to make western food.

Please place it here.

Mom, I made you some soup.

Please have some.

No.

Mom.

Please have some.

You haven't eaten anything since this morning.

No.

Get out of my room.

I don't want to see your face.

I wish...

the relationship between our son and Maan Kaew was just a nightmare.

We're not deities, Payia.

We'll die eventually.

Our son has a long life ahead of him.

We'll leave him eventually.

Why don't we get along well with each other?

Isn't that better?

If that's the case, I won't feel at ease.

But we're parents, Payia.

We need to sacrifice, so our son can be happy.

Our love was fulfilled. We ended up together.

Why don't we let him fulfil his love and be happy with the one he loves?

Our son hasn't even done anything yet.

He's still waiting for your approval.

I love you, Payia.

The reason why we've been together until today...

is because love always brings your heart to mine.

I want you to consider our son's happiness too.

Princess Maan Kaew looks elated.

I curse her that her wish won't come true...

and she won't get to marry the prince.

Please God, let the prince get back to Princess Tan Ying just as before!

Please.

Mom, I brought Maan Kaew to bow and thank you...

for permitting our relationship.

Payia.

Sure.

Don't open it.

Can you really live...

by shutting all the windows?

It's so dark. There's no air ventilation.

I can do it.

It's okay.

Tan Ying.

I don't want you to be like this.

Don't worry.

I will never kill myself...

for a man.

But you have to...

stop hurting yourself, okay?

I promise.

I am Princess Wilailayka.

I will never be a weakling.

From now on,

I will have a new life.

A life that is of my own.

I won't let anyone or anything...

rule over my life and my heart anymore.

Never.

What is this, Wad?

Who broke this?

This is the favourite tea set of the Her Highness!

Oh, my gosh! You're going to get whipped!

Her Highness broke it herself.

Why? What happened?

Her aunt came to visit.

Her Highness was complaining about Princess Tan Ying's room renovation.

She couldn't find any workers.

Princess said that there's probably no worker available...

because everyone is busy with building the prince's wedding house.

Then Her Highness became so furious!

Hurry and clean it up!

Yes!

Tan Ying.

Tan Ying.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have invited you for a walk.

Get out!

I want to be alone.

Tan Ying.

I say I want to be alone! Get out!

Help! Prince's wedding house is on fire!

Hurry up and help!

Fire!

Fire! Help!

Fire!

Hurry up and help! Fire!

Fire!

Hurry up and help!

Do you know why there's a fire?

I don't know!

Help!

Oh, my gosh! What is this?

My paintings!

Follow me.

Prince, please don't enter!

Prince!

Ready? One, two, three!

Prince!

- Please be careful! - Please help!

Hurry up!

Please help!

Fire!

That's enough, Son.

I'm not letting you get married.

Cancel it.

The wedding house was on fire.

It's an extremely horrible sign.

It's a taboo.

This woman must be a bad luck for sure.

Your life together will always be immersed in fire.

Your marriage won't last long.

Worst yet,

she would lead our ancestral family into destruction.

Hey.

That's too much.

Son.

Son.

You must listen to old sayings.

It's sacred or else it wouldn't have been passed down until today.

I'm just afraid that you'll be in danger.

How would we know that Maan Kaew is the cause, Mom?

I may be the bad luck.

Son.

Why are you saying such things?

This is a horrible sign.

It's not something to joke about.

I'm not challenging the beliefs of my ancestors.

But I'm not going to cancel the wedding, Mom.

I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow or in the future.

I only care about the present.

I'm going to marry Maan Kaew.

I will.
