A Girl Like Me

Episode 4

Baroness. Come here, Baroness.

I assure you

that everything is ready.

He’ll be shocked by this for sure.

This mansion

is right next to Count Cheng’an’s.

He’ll get the best view of them.

I’ve bought all the fanciest fireworks

in Daye.

Enjoy!

Enjoy!

Young Master, look.

It must be that Baroness Ban!

She came to the next door to tease you.

♪Meteors shoot across the evening glow♪

♪Her smile is like the beautiful painting in my memory♪

♪Pick a flower that will never fade♪

♪And give it to the girl in my dream♪

♪Wait for the sunny weather when we first met♪

♪We know time will give the answer♪

♪Search for the girl in my memory♪

♪Loves that girl♪

♪Loves her hair♪

♪Loves her dress♪

♪Wait for the sunny weather quietly♪

♪Accompany you in every season♪

♪Care for you all my life♪

♪Love him♪

♪Love her♪

Young Master. Young Master? Young Master!

Oh.

What do you mean by “oh”?

Young Master, should we drive them away?

♪Wait for the sunny weather when we first met♪

♪We know time will give the answer♪

♪Search for the girl in my memory♪

♪That boy♪

♪Loves that girl♪

♪Loves her hair♪

♪Accompany you in every season and every day♪

♪Care for you all my life♪

♪Love him♪

♪Love her♪

♪All I want is to♪

♪Accompany you in every season and every day♪

Did he really say that?

Yeah!

I didn’t even get into the mansion!

That Du… Du… Du…

Du Jiu kicked me out.

How dared he!

You know what…

Rong Xia is much tougher to handle than I thought.

-That guy was acting so arrogant! -No way.

I must think of another way.

I’m so pissed off.

Don’t be. Calm down.

Baroness. Baroness.

Were you listening to me?

Baroness!

Ban Hua.

Leave if there’s nothing important.

It’s nearly midnight.

I’m about to have my beauty sleep.

This time, you really should praise me.

Who did you beat in cricket fighting?

Not boring things like that.

The thing is, I traded a treasure

for a really big secret.

It’s only been half a month,

yet you’ve spent all your pocket money?

Is that all you can think

of me?

The secret I’m talking about is

Rong Xia has few hobbies

expect that he loves skating.

He’s been keen on it for 18 years.

He loves skating more than anything.

Are you serious?

Rong’s Mansion

From now on,

I’ll be in charge of escorting you, Count.

Young Master. What’s wrong?

By the way, what did you say to them

about Baroness Ban’s mischief last night?

Did you use strong words

and lose our manner?

Forget it.

Baroness Ban always does as she pleases.

After all, that wasn’t a big deal.

I was overthinking it.

Rong’s Mansion

Young Master, I’m sorry that I lost my manner.

But, Young Master,

the people we sent out

all have made progress lately,

and they are doing well,

while here, we have made no progress at all.

You are right.

It’s time.

Rong’s Mansion

Du Jiu.

Now that you’re aware of your misbehavior last night,

I need you

to go pick some jewelry and toys

and deliver them to Baroness Ban

in the name of thanks for her arrangement last night

and apology as well.

Young Master…

I…

Rong’s Mansion

What did I do wrong this time?

Why should I apologize for nothing?

Hey,

I’ve been waiting here for two hours.

Tell me, will Baroness see me or not?

Last night, you insulted us by saying that

we couldn’t do anything but play.

Now, are you complaining that

I’ve kept you waiting?

Please don’t be mad.

It was my fault indeed.

But today, His Grace sent me here

to deliver a gift

and some words

to say to Baroness Ban face to face.

So, please inform her.

Baroness went out this morning.

You can come later.

Went out? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

Because I didn’t want to.

If you don’t like it, just complain to your master.

Don’t get me mad, or I…

You what?

Don’t try to scare me. I’ll come another day.

I’ll leave the gift here.

Stop.

Baroness asked me

to let you deliver this to Count Rong.

She’s going to give a banquet in the suburbs.

She wants His Grace to come.

Don’t be smug. I’ll deal with you later.

What’s the big deal?

That Baroness Ban

found such a remote place.

God knows what she’s up to.

Young Master, we’d better leave.

Maybe she wants to revenge

for what happened last night.

She can be wilful sometimes,

but she’s a decent person after all.

She won’t mess around.

Young Master, I’ll go decline her invitation.

No.

Since I agreed to come,

I should keep my word.

But Young Master,

people in our mansion all know that you don’t skate.

Even the winter ice in the yard

must be broken.

Why do you have to suffer from this?

I decided to be friendly with the Bans.

How can I break my promise?

Well…

Here they are.

He did show up.

Xie Wanyu didn’t lie to me.

Count Rong, I didn’t think you’d come.

With your great hospitality,

how can I not come?

Please be seated.

My mother told me

this headwear was left by your mother.

Thanks a lot. I love it.

Young Master, I just randomly picked it.

I didn’t expect this.

The scenery in the mountains is good.

And autumn is a good season to go out.

Now, the elaborate arrangements from Baroness Ban

only makes here poetic.

Just like

those spectacular scenes described in the poems.

I know little about poems,

but I’m good at having fun.

Now you are here,

I guarantee that

you’ll have a lot of fun skating.

Come with me!

I won’t.

Skating is easy.

I’ll teach you.

I said I won’t.

Come on. Hurry.

No, I won’t!

Come on!

I won’t go without Mom and Dad.

Fine, Rong Xia.

Let’s go skating together.

Count.

Count Rong?

Baroness, skating is fun,

but I caught a cold recently.

It’s no big deal.

Your body will get warm during skating,

and the cold will be gone.

Besides,

I have a physician here who specializes in traumatic injuries.

You can just have fun

without any concerns.

You seldom come out to play.

So, just enjoy yourself today.

Don’t be shy. Enjoy skating.

My sister is excellent

at almost everything except poetry.

Count,

don’t be shy, and enjoy yourself.

Come on.

Young Master!

See? He’s fine.

Let’s sit back down.

Hold my hand.

Count?

Don’t worry.

This whole rink

was specially designed by Ban Heng and me.

I can guarantee your safety.

See? It’s really fun.

Help yourself, Baroness. I’ll keep up with you later.

Young Master, please don’t!

Don’t worry.

What’re you doing?

Don’t worry. He’ll be fine.

Skating backwards? Impressive.

He’s doing good, isn’t he?

Come. Sit back down.

It seems I underestimated you.

I didn’t know you’re so good at it.

How about having a match with me?

I always skate alone.

I dare not compete with you.

Skating alone would be boring.

It’s a pity

that winter hasn’t come.

Or it would be

more fun to have a snowball fight while skating.

I scored a point.

Two points, Count!

Catch up with me!

Baroness, watch out!

Please forgive me, Baroness.

Never mind.

Thanks for your help.

Count.

It looks that

you’re not really good at skating.

It’s my fault

that I mistook you.

Don’t blame yourself.

I do like skating.

However, that’s when I was a kid.

I haven’t done this for long. I’m a little rusty.

I see.

Count, you’re knowledgeable

but

when it comes to playing,

I’m better than you.

How about

letting me teach you to skate?

I’m afraid it’s hard for me

and it would take much time.

It’s not hard at all. I’ll teach you.

Then…

I should say thank…

Count Cheng’an,

you should watch the way you stand on the ice.

See?

Get the skates into the ice and you won’t fall.

Thank you, Baroness.

Give me your hands.

I’ll lead you.

Wait, Baroness.

Don’t worry. I’m here with you.

Let’s go.

♪The drizzle is falling on the ground♪

♪Love is growing in the heart♪

Come on, brother. Let’s skate together.

-It’ll be fun. -Brother!

Brother, I can’t.

I’m scared.

Don’t worry. I’ll be with you.

Come on, give me your hands.

Come. Slowly.

You can skate, see?

Count.

You’re actually gifted.

Then… It’s on your own.

Go.

Believe in yourself.

You can do it.

You look even better when you smile.

Baroness, please don’t mind it.

Now we are tied.

You are a fast learner.

But Count Cheng’an,

you’ll have a long way to go to beat me.

Don’t worry about him.

He’s good at skating.

The ice is thin there. Be careful, Count.

Count Xie’s daughter, Xie Wanyu,

is the perfect match for you.

The marriage invitation has been sent.

It’s settled then.

Father, I won’t marry

any woman in Daye

but Shi Feixian.

When is it your turn

to decide on the royal marriage?

I have the final say in any royal marriages!

If I can’t marry Miss Shi,

I’d rather spend the rest of my life alone!

Ridiculous!

The imperial edict has been issued.

No more discussion.

Since you don’t want to discuss anymore,

I have nothing else to say, Father.

Please forgive me

for not attending the wedding.

You unfilial son!

Guards!

Yes!

Put him under house arrest.

Without my decree,

he mustn’t go out.

Yes!

Your Majesty.

How could he not understand?

The eldest daughter of Shi Jin has married the Crown Prince.

If her sister married the Second Prince,

the Shi family will become too powerful

and be a threat to me.

Have you heard

the latest news from the imperial palace?

Because the Second Prince

didn’t agree to marry Xie Wanyu…

Have a taste.

…His Majesty gave him a slap.

Really?

Don’t tell anyone about it.

I won’t.

I promise with my cabbage.

I won’t tell anyone.

Okay.

Have you heard that

His Majesty wanted the Second Prince to marry Xie Wanyu,

but the two of them got into a fight?

Really?

Don’t tell anyone about it.

If you do that, you may be sentenced to death.

Rest assured. I promise with my tofu.

I won’t tell anyone.

Big news!

The Second Prince hit His Majesty just because he didn’t want to

marry Xie Wanyu.

Are you serious?

Don’t tell anyone about…

Oh my goodness, there’s a revolt!

The Second Prince refused to marry Xie Wanyu

and knocked His Majesty unconscious!

Who told you that?

It’s her!

It’s her!

No! It’s her!

-Who on earth is it? -It’s her!

How could you say that out?

That’s about His Majesty!

Don’t go!

It’s her!

Young Master!

Bodhisattva, please bless that Young Master is safe.

Du Jiu,

I heard that if a drowned person

falls into a coma,

oxygen will be needed to save him.

Thank you, Bodhisattva,

for bringing Young Master back to life.

Don’t thank Bodhisattva.

The one who saved him is her.

If it wasn’t for her,

Young Master wouldn’t even be in the water.

Thank…

Thank you for saving me, Baroness.

As long as you’re fine.

Young Master.

I’m okay.

Du Jiu.

Young Master.

Bring my…

my overcoat.

Okay.

Young Master.

Young Master?

Count Cheng’an, you should put it on.

I can’t repay you for saving me…

But I can stop you from catching a cold.

Thank you then, Count.

This bookworm

is not as boring as I thought.

What?

How come?

Miss,

though Count Cheng’an isn’t good at skating,

under Baroness Ban’s patient guidance,

the two of them had a really good time

on the ice.

I see. You may leave.

Yes.

It’s so hot!

Hold it, dear.

Once the chill is pushed out of your body,

you’ll be all right.

Yeah, that’s right.

Why are you all staring at me?

How is it

going

between Count Cheng’an and you?

What’re you talking about?

According to my plan,

you’re his savior right now.

And according to the script,

he’s going to marry you to repay you.

Was the accident set by you?

What if he died?

Wait a minute.

I only set the skating activity.

The accident has nothing to do with me.

Don’t blame me.

After all,

you saved his life.

He owes you now.

Young Master, please dry yourself.

Or you might catch a cold.

I’m okay.

His Majesty has arranged

the marriage between the Second Prince and Miss Xie.

Have you got

any clues to my mother’s bracelet?

Everything’s ready.

When the time is right, we’ll sneak into Xie’s Mansion.

Do it early.

Young Master.

What’s the number, Young Master?

Young Master? Young Master.

Look here.

Why have I never seen

this assistant before?

You have a good eye, Young Master.

This guy

was entrusted to me by my senior in the east of the city.

He’s new in the business.

I have a lot to teach him.

Why do you cover your face?

For fear of infection.

I’m blind,

but I didn’t catch a plague!

Please calm down.

I caught a cold,

and I fear you might get infected.

Physician.

Tell me,

is there any hope for my recovery?

Forget it. You don’t need to answer me.

Don’t be sad.

Look on the bright side.

For example,

if you go hunting,

you’ll be better than others for sure.

You don’t even need to close your left eye.

How handy that is!

What are you laughing about?

What nonsense are you talking about?

Please don’t be angry, Young Master.

He’s just young and garrulous.

He didn’t mean it.

Please forgive him.

Hurry! Apologize! Apologize!

I’m sorry.

Get lost!

Yes, I will.

-I will get lost. -Go. Just go.

I’m so pissed off.

Please don’t be. Please don’t be.

Young Master.

What’s going on outside?

People from the Ban family are here.

Baroness Ban is here?

Don’t let her in.

Why?

Baroness Ban is here to see you.

No.

Uncle Rong,

if she asks the reason,

just tell her that I’m sick

and it’s not convenient to see her.

You don’t want to see her, Young Master?

Not that.

So, you want to see her.

Uncle Rong.

I can’t see her.

Can’t see her?

He wants to see her but can’t see her.

What’s wrong with him?

I knew this pair of stone lions would look perfect.

Rong’s Mansion

I named them “Zhen Jing”,

which means to suppress fright.

I want to suppress the fright for Count Cheng’an.

Thank…

Don’t thank me.

They should be here in the first place.

But… where’s he?

He caught a cold and is inconvenient to see visitors.

Caught a cold?

My elder sister is fine.

How come he caught a cold?

He really has poor health.

Alright then,

let’s go shopping.

Goodbye, Baroness.

Hua, Count Cheng’an has caught a cold.

Why didn’t you visit him and show your concern?

I wouldn’t like to see him

in a bad condition.

Or that

would influence his good image in my mind.

I can visit him when he gets better.

That makes sense.

And I don’t want to get infected.

By the way,

arrange more people

beside Count Cheng’an.

When he gets better, let me be informed.

You can do it yourself.

My time should be spent

on my beauty.

Get out!

Mingyue Inn Don’t be so rude!

Mingyue Inn Get out! Get out!

How dare you offend other customers!

Get lost!

There’s a misunderstanding.

It’s those customers who talked bad

behind others

and insulted the reputation of Baroness Ban.

I just reasoned with them. I did nothing wrong.

That’s right.

Everyone in the capital

knows that Ban Hua was rejected from marriage.

Who would listen to your argument, you poor scholar?

I… I…

A poor scholar like you wants to take the imperial examination?

Who do you think you are?

What’s wrong with being poor?

Don’t look down upon me!

Shen Yu, Scholar of Humble Birth I, Shen Yu,

Shen Yu, Scholar of Humble Birth will make achievements one day!

Yes!

Throw them away!

No, no, no.

No, no, no.

Don’t throw them!

You’ve gone too far!

Get lost now!

How could you do this?

How could you throw away my books?

The books are dirty now.

May I ask what happened to you?

Mingyue Inn

Mingyue Inn Thanks for your concern, Miss.

It’s just that I pissed off their customers

and got driven out.

You look frail, but you have a bad temper.

You didn’t hear

what they were talking about.

They not only mocked up the Second Prince

for rejecting the marriage with Xie Wanyu,

but also insulted Baroness Ban

for being rejected because of

being a jinx.

Those words were terribly bad.

As an educated man,

how could I stand that?

I had to reason with them.

That means

you were trying to help Xie Wanyu

and Baroness Ban?

Of course.

But my strength is limited.

I’d better give up.

Is that so?

Follow me.

Mingyue Inn

Hey, come on in.

Today, you’ve met a savior.

That person can save you from being poor.

Who is she?

What’re you doing?

Don’t go in!

Let’s go inside to take a look.

You were talking bad behind my back?

We were just being drunk.

We wouldn’t dare to do that.

She’s Baroness Ban?

Let me ask you.

If no one marries me, I will be doomed?

No, no, no.

We just got drunk and lost our minds.

Baroness, don’t take that seriously.

Yeah, we just got drunk.

That’s right.

Must a woman marry a man

in order to survive?

I hate bullying people the most.

How can you bully someone just because he’s poor?

In order to make more money,

you help the rich to bully the poor.

I mean, sir,

don’t you fear that they may revenge

when they become rich?

Apologize to him.

You’re right, Baroness.

It’s all my fault.

I apologize to you, Sir.

I, Shen Yu, am diligent and honest.

Thanks to the help from Baroness.

I accept your apology.

Nice to meet you, Baroness.

You are really a courageous and righteous person.

Just like a beautiful and clean jade.

He is

not as good-looking as Count Cheng’an.

But he talks sweet,

even sweeter than that guy.

From now on,

this place is only available for poor scholars.

All of their expenses

before the imperial examinations

will be covered by the Ban family.

Covered by the Ban family?

How generous!

Okay. No problem.

As for other customers, please find other places.

Let’s go. Hurry.

Come one. Let’s go.

Well…

Baroness, you don’t have to do this.

We are satisfied enough

to just have a place to stay.

People can be short of money,

but not the aspirations.

It’s OK to be looked down upon,

but you can’t look down upon yourself.

Goodbye, Baroness.

Mingyue Inn

Baroness

is not that arrogant and willful like they say.

She’s really merciful.

Forget about her.

She’s far out of your league.

Someday, I’ll impress you.

Young Master.

Young Master?

Why are there a pair of stone lions?

They look familiar.

How is the investigation going?

I’ve checked the library in Xie’s Mansion thoroughly,

but I didn’t find that bracelet.

Seems that someone is misleading us on purpose.

Back then,

the Xie family must’ve been involved.

But Count Xie doesn’t seem that wise.

I’m afraid there’s someone else behind this.

Ban’s Academy Hua is really wise to open an academy.

Ban’s Academy

Ban’s Academy If the scholars here

Ban’s Academy make achievements in the future,

Ban’s Academy it would also be beneficial

Ban’s Academy to our family.

Ban’s Academy That’s right.

Ban’s Academy You got the point.

-And that would be an honor for us. -Can this be called an academy?

As long as there are books here.

Only the places with teachers there

can be called an academy.

Whatever. Get in.

-Hello, Young Master. -Hello, Young Master.

Hello, Baroness.

Baroness Ban really opened an academy.

She’s really rich and generous.

And you can see her good taste by looking at the details.

Look at that!

-Young Master. -Hello, Young Master.

Hello, Young Master.

Baroness.

I haven’t seen you for days.

Today, I specially came here to…

To see this place? No problem.

Just look around.

And you can take anything you like.

Okay.

Baroness,

in fact, I specially came here to

show my admiration to you. I…

Thank you, Marquis.

Don’t mention it.

Good to have you here.

Thank you, Marquis.

We’ve learned a lot here.

You’re welcome.

We’ve learned a lot here.

Good to have you here. Thank you.

Goodbye.

Okay, okay.

Thank you, Marquis.

It’s my pleasure.

I shall leave.

Thank you, Young Master.

-Thank you, Young Master. -Be careful on the way.

Thank you, Marquis.

They all left.

Why are you still here?

I, Shen Yu,

want to marry Baroness Ban.

What?

What…?

Well…

Ban’s Academy

Ban’s Academy Young Master, I’m really sincere.

Ban’s Academy Give me a chance.

Ban’s Academy Marry my sister?

Ban’s Academy In your dreams.

Go find another girl.

Don’t ever set foot in our mansion again.

Insane.

Ban’s Academy

Ban’s Academy Marquis! Madam!

Marquis! Madam!

I really love Baroness Ban!

Give me a chance!

Totally insane.

I…!

Education is vital to the stability of a country.

Marquis Jingting, you’re being generous to help the poor scholars out.

You’re really

making great contributions to the whole country.

I feel flattered, Your Majesty.

I didn’t spend much money. So, I’m not that generous.

After all,

your deed is good for both the country and the people.

Your Majesty, in fact,

this whole idea is from Hua.

That makes me more impressed.

Please don’t say that, Your Majesty.

However…

What?

Any problems?

Your Majesty.

There’s a stupid scholar

being infatuated with my daughter.

He stays at the entrance of my mansion,

and every time he sees her, he would ask her to marry him.

Every morning,

when the day just begins in a mist,

I open the gate and come out…

Marquis!

There would be a shadow standing in the mist.

Marquis!

Marquis!

Get away!

My love for Hua is witnessed by the sun and the moon!

Get away!

Marquis!

The sun and the moon…!

-Get away! -Marquis!

I’m really scared of him.

How ridiculous.

Yeah.

Your Majesty.

That’s why I can’t eat

or sleep well lately.

Look, even my belly got smaller.

Count Cheng’an asks to see Your Majesty.

Grant.

Your Majesty.

You came at the right time.

Have you heard of what happened to Baroness Ban?

Yes, kind of.

Baroness Ban was born in a rich family

yet she can understand the bitterness of the poor scholars

and have faith in their future.

I admire her for that.

And I can understand the guy who’s infatuated with her.

But as for the way out,

I’m afraid only Baroness Ban can figure out.

Isn’t he sick?

But he doesn’t look like that.

Count Cheng’an is right.

The love affair

is out of my power.

Let her figure it out by herself.

Ban Huai.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I shouldn’t have brought this up.

What? He’s not sick?

I was talking with His Majesty.

Then he came in.

He doesn’t seem sick at all.

Count Cheng’an, how dare you

trick me!

That bookworm wants to

suffer more from me?

Ban Hua, there’s one waiting outside.

He’s still there?

How about giving him a chance?

He wants to force you to marry him. That’s ridiculous!

Drive him away!

Hold it.

Easy, dear. Let him wait.

Let’s see how many days he can wait there.

My beauty is to blame.
