Oh My General

Jiangbei is Prince Qi's fief. He has already rushed there last night.

There are a lot of sudden situations that happen during a disaster relief. We urgently need a source for the relief funds.

I say, this young lady is so beautiful that she looks like a fairy.

Why then would she go to a temple to become a nun?

the spiraling voice of the bell...

how many secular problems has it hidden or ended?

I only want to live here.

- Over there!
- Miss! Miss, hurry!

- Stop!
- Stop right there!

Miss!

Run for it!

Because of the successive rains, there were poor field harvests and the supplies via ships have been cut off. Commodity prices in Dongjing have skyrocketed.

There are people starving everywhere. Citizens who have lost their families have to leave their hometowns. Calamity relief mustn't be delayed any longer.

The provision of the relief fund is a major task of the country to save the people.

I have someone in mind who can handle the task.

You're wearing a green official's robe running around all day to patrol the streets and checking the guard posts,

I feel a bit sorry for it. It's quite a waste of your talent. I will promote you...

- Really?
- Of course!

Episode 28

I personally gave the order. Could it be false?

Eunuch Jiang, bring the appointment letter here.

Appointment Letter?

Here, take this.

What kind of Appointment Letter is this?

Recently, Jiangbei and Xiushui were flooded.

I order you to be the envoy to deliver the disaster relief to them.

- Relief fund?
- Yes, relief fund.

What should I do regarding this?

It's not difficult. For the whole relief effort, you run some errands, show some empathy for the citizens and secure them, and post notices.

Once the rations arrive, just order your men to distribute them.

When you are free, walk around. Chat and drink tea with the people,

and check if the government officials hid any reports regarding the relief fund.

It will be fine when the provisions arrive and you have settled them. As for the rest of the matters,

you don't need to keep them in your heart. Just monitor them. You don't need to take the burden.

What do you think? Easy, right?

There is indeed no peace of mind. No wonder he is full of praises today.

He's flattering me and also loaning me the renowned painting.

Your Majesty, you are my biological uncle.

A work like this that can offend people and can hasten my death, why must you get me do it?

Yujin, you've lived the first half of your life in a muddled manner.

If you succeed in this relief fund matter, you will be giving me face.

Also, since you were young until now, your mother has kept you in the house.

You haven't even stepped out of the capital's main gates. How is the world of sensual pleasures outside?

Do you know it?

You definitely don't know.

Yujin, you must think carefully. For this time,

it's a great opportunity for you to spread your wings.

Since I was young until now, my mother has kept me in the house. I have pined for what's out there for a long time.

It's rare to have the opportunity to travel in a fair and honorable manner.

Your Majesty, you are right. I guarantee that I will complete the task.

Fine! Yujin, this is your first official business trip.

You lack experience. I will tell Hai Weining and Jinshi Bi to assist you.

If you don't understand anything, let them guide you.

Thank you, Imperial Uncle!

I will immediately send a decree to the bailiffs handling the disaster areas.

Let them post announcements on waiving of taxes, give aid and help in settling and transferring the refugees.

Just do your job and you will be fine.

I understand. Where should we go first?

Jiangbei is nearer the border with Western Xia. To prevent the refugees from causing trouble

and Western Xia taking advantage of it to harass us, go to Jiangbei first before Xiushui.

I will give Ye Zhao two months of leave to let her accompany you.

In the first place, it's for your protection. Second, it's for the both of you to foster your relationship...

and have some children of your own as soon as possible.

Uncle, is my wife's name then included in the name list of envoys?

It won't be. Ye Zhao will be there in a personal capacity. It's not considered an official trip for her.

This is great. I will let her see what it's like to be provided for by her husband.

Yujin, this disaster relief trip is a major government matter.

You must not be complacent during the journey.

Imperial Uncle, please don't worry. I have another request.

Speak.

Please let me borrow Physician Meng Xingde for a few days.

Along the way, he can treat us for migraines and fever.

With him along, I won't be worried about you. No problem.

By the way, Yujin,

even if inns are very simple, don't go bothering the local officials anymore.

Make your own arrangements and stay in a nice inn.

No problem. Don't worry, Imperial Uncle.

Okay, go back and make the preparations.

I will obey.

Tidy up over there.

- Xiao Xiazi!
- Junwang.

Pack the luggage now. We are going to a distant place.

You are going to a distant place? Eastern or Western city gate?

What do you mean? It's really a distant place.

It's really a distant place?

His Majesty is letting me go on an official trip to work, eat, drink and play.

It's really something that nice?

Go and pack the luggage now.

Hurry up.

Dear! Dear! Hurry up.

- Come here.
- What's up?

Pack your stuff now. His Majesty wants me to take you to Jiangbei and Xiushui for disaster relief.

This is great. When do we leave?

If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, follow the dog. When are we going? (T/N: you must follow the husband wherever he goes)

Immediately instruct Qiu Hua and Qiu Shui that they are leaving with us.

Present!

You and Qiu Shui are going with us to the disaster areas. Remember to be low-key about this.

You will travel with us as the Junwang's maid attendant.

Yes.

Also, I will reserve fifty elite soldiers to be our bodyguards. Do the preparations now.

Yes, General.

Ah Zhao, you are really lightning-fast in doing tasks. Outstanding.

This is who I am.

It's a different kind of firework.

A fruit of different flavor.

General.

General, that is actually my hometown. Take me with you, too.

Just take me along. Okay?

Okay, you can go, too.

- Thank you, General.
- General!

If everyone leaves, I will be alone and bored here. Take me along, too.

Are you both crazy? We are going to the Jiangbei to deliver the relief goods. We are not going there for fun.

Meiniang's home is in Jiangbei. She's going back to take a look at the same time. Xuan'er, you can go next time.

Okay then.

We will be bringing a lot of stuff when we leave. Meiniang, bring along all the necessities.

Xuan'er, bring along twenty set of the General's clothes.

Okay. I'm going to do it now. Let's go.

Why are you taking along so many clothes?

We are going to places where we are not familiar with.

What if our clothes get damaged or get wet? There's flooding in Jiangbei and it's been raining incessantly.

What if we don't have any more clothes to change into? Just bring more. It's better to be sure.

Two sets are really enough. Dear, you haven't gone to a distant place. You don't know about this.

Bullshit! You are now just an accompanying wife. You must listen to me.

Five sets and nothing less.

It's a deal.

Dear, let's choose some weapons.

Let's bring Taizu's "Black Iron Whip" and the "Dragon Sword" for emergency use.

His Majesty said that with your womanizing reputation, having your wife and concubines traveling with you is just expected.

Empress also instructed me to make good use of this opportunity.

When we are back, she wants to carry a grandchild.

So great! On this journey, there is good scenery and we can even create a little "one like us."

- Such a happy thing.
- There's also a beautiful woman.

Yes, there is also a beauty. Dear, you must keep a low profile.

Right, keep a low profile. We had better hide our real identities and leave in disguise.

Right. That's a good idea. We can also have some fun acting.

I'll disguise as a grain merchant, while you will be a bodyguard. All our other attendants are our maid servants and footboy.

Yes, dear. Let's go and choose our weapons.

Okay.

Junwang! Junwang! Based on your instructions, I'm done with the inventory.

Read it.

The Junwang has a total of twenty sets each of official robes of different colors, casual clothes, shoes, and socks,

ten sets each of silk bedding, eiderdown blankets, and embroidered pillows.

Three pieces each of basins for washing the faces, cups for brushing one's teeth, and bathtubs.

One big basket of "must have" small items during traveling.

What else do I lack?

Oh, right, chamber pot. Bring two chamber pots.

It's still the Junwang who is meticulous.

Everything is now ready. We can set out in two days.

I'll go prepare them now.

- Old Master... Old Master, come again!
- Hurry, hurry, put it here.

Old Master!
- Don't come closer! Block them well.

Don't come closer!

- Madam.
- Give us alms!

Yes.

Okay already.

Give me some. Give me two.

Here. Hold it well.

- Show us some mercy. Give us some alms.
- Thank you!

- Give me some.
- Madam, give me some, too.

You're a good person. Give me some.

In just one night, Jiangbei completely changed.

It changed into a scene of desolation. Dreary all over.

It's better for Madam these coming days

to just stay inside the house. Don't casually go out.

I heard that those refugees have gone crazy. They just steal from everyone.

If only His Highness is willing to open up the grain storage,

won't all the problems be successively resolved?

They are not crazy.

They are starving.

Junwang, we're here.

Xiao Xiazi, this inn looks good. Go in and check it.

Okay.

Junwang! Junwang! Junwang!

- How is it?
- I've checked it already.

This inn has clean rooms and neat beds.

More importantly, the executive suite is only one hundred wen.

There is even a wooden bathtub for bathing with hot water provided!

The food here are also local delicacies. The customers can order whatever they want.

I like it a lot.

Not bad.

Tell the owner that everyone is hungry, so serve the dishes first. We'll do the checking-in later.

Okay.

Ah Zhao, let's go.

Husband, how is the taste?

Although it looks crude and simple,

the taste has a very natural aroma to it.

Delicious.

Each place has its own delicacy.

Husband, you should go out more often. That way I can also get to experience them.

- General, eat more.
- Next time, just tell me where you want to go.

I'll take you to eat the delicacies everywhere.

Junwang, do you want me to pay the tab now?

This way, we can all directly settle down after eating.

Fill it.

Oh, right, Yujin, the inns are very simple.

Don't trouble the local officials anymore.

You just personally arrange to stay in more comfortable inns.

An envoy bringing his family with him to travel to the disaster area to provide relief.

This weasel didn't even provide any travel fund.

Not only must I spend my own money for the travel,

even Lord Hai and Jinshi Bi's travel expenses

must be provided by me.

That indeed seems to be the case.

A man's schemes are inferior to those made by the Emperor.

That weasel has really made such slick calculations.

So hateful!

Say, the chicken today is so delicious!

You should all eat chicken. (T/N: this is a fish)

You should have some more, too!

I'm unable to pick it up.

What's wrong?

My gums are swollen and painful.

No problem, no problem! Although His Majesty didn't give us any travel funds,

he asked me to bring a lot of refreshing and tooth-protecting

Yu Chi San! (T/N: a product endorsement for a preparation for tooth-brushing and gum inflammation)

I heard that this Yu Chi San is exquisitely made by the Bureau of Chinese Drug Manufacturing.

The medicinal ingredients are very precious.

It's very effective in relieving inflammation and protecting one's gums.

His Majesty doesn't easily grant people that medicine. (T/N: Just like His Majesty's fabric softener.)

Meiniang, you should try to use it more often.

It's really cooling. So refreshing!

Young Master, we've arrived.

Slowly, Young Master. Get down slowly.

In this remote place, we can only make do with this place.

Okay.

Please.

Customer, it can't be helped.

An official from the capital has fully-booked our inn today.

Who is that? Parading such extravagance?

Do you know that our Young Master Zhang—

Go to other inns to ask if there are still some rooms.

I heard that they are rice merchants going to Jiangbei.

They indeed are quite ostentatious. They brought several carriages with them.

Don't say the adjacent inn,

but even those several inns nearby have been booked by them.

How about you have some wonton first at the side street stall? (T/N: small boiled or fried stuffed dumplings)

Our Young Master Zhang

is of delicate and wealthy status.

If not because our wheel broke down midway and we got delayed,

how could we even consider staying in your run-down inn?

Forget it. This is not Xiushui. Don't argue with others.

Let's go.

If this was in Xiushui, I'd beat you to death, you lowly slave!

Having no vacancy is having no vacancy. Why must you curse people?

What's happening outside?

What's going on?

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @ Viki

Honored customer!

Young Lord.

Young Lord, did you get hurt?

No.

My surname is Zhang. I'm a xiucai.

May I know how to address you?

My surname is Yu.

Replying to Young Lord Yu,

I and my servant were hurrying in our travels, and had stopped by here for we are very hungry.

Don't know if we can become acquaintances

and allow us to sit beside your table.

I had too many people in my merchant group and have caused you disturbance.

If you don't mind, you can sit with us.

Thank you, Young Lord Yu.

You're welcome.

- Please.
- After you.

Eat more vegetables. They're nutritious.

- Ah Zhao, this is delicious.
- You eat it yourself.

Drink some soup.

This soup wasn't cooked well. I'm not drinking it.

If you won't drink it, I will.

So hot... so hot!

While there is still food, eat more.

When we reach the disaster area, you won't have anything to eat even if you want to.

I'll prepare a stove then to cook you some porridge.

Thank you, my Lord.

- Good morning, Young Lord Yu.
- Good morning.

I saw you transporting several carts of grains. Where are you going?

My uncle is a businessman. He told me that transporting them to Jiangbei will get me profits.

He asked me to go out and gain some experience.

If this business profits, it will go to him.

If I incur losses, it will be deducted from my allowances.

This Uncle of mine clearly knew that it's my first time to travel this far, yet he arranged for an exhausting and dirty job for me to do.

The food prices in Jiangbei have indeed increased the most.

The usual three meals a days have become several times more expensive.

If you are able to safely transport them and sell them to the local merchants,

you surely can sell them at a good price.

Safely transport them?

Could it be that the travel there isn't that safe?

After the flooding, there are bandits causing troubles.

They have been stealing food left and right. If you meet them, your life might get endangered.

Ha?

Then... is the calamity situation worse in Jiangbei or in Xiushui?

It surely will be Xiushui.

The dam got destroyed and people died. It is so horrifying that you can't bear to look at it.

Where are you from?

I am exactly from Xiushui.

I was studying in the academy at Songshan waiting for the spring exams for two years.

My father is an official at Xiushui.

He has been guarding the severely-damaged areas since they were hit.

Your father sounds like a good official.

My father has always been cautious and conscientious with his duties. He initially had chances to be promoted.

But maybe the heavens just doesn't want to follow what one wishes.

He had to encounter this difficult disaster.

Young Lord, I have a request.

Speak.

The times now aren't peaceful. With I and my footman going home together, it can't be helped for us to have some fear.

Your troupe is full of men and horses. Can we travel with you?

We can also take care of each other.

Taking care of you isn't a problem.

But my Uncle's plan is for me to go to Jiangbei first,

before going to Xiushui.

Making a detour will only take you one or two days.

The increase in food prices is highest in Xiushui right now.

My father is also the local official there. If you go there, you can stay in the local government office for the meantime.

This can help ensure your safety. I also know a lot of local merchants.

I can be your middleman and get you a good price.

That's okay, too.

Uncle has some connections in the government.

If given a chance, he can help report your father's situation to the Imperial court.

He can also serve as a good model for them.

Junwang! Junwang!

- Coming!
- Junwang! Junwang!

- What's wrong?
- I have important matters.

Junwang, there's one thing I don't understand. In our disaster relief route, it should be Jiangbei first

before Xishui. How come you suddenly changed it to Xiushui?

I heard that Xiushui's disaster situation is graver. Of course, we should save them first.

Jiangbei is just adjacent to Western Xia.

We must appropriately handle the affected citizens.

If the local refugees incite trouble, I fear that Western Xia might take advantage of it and harass us.

Hence, what's most important now is to go to Jiangbei first.

If we suddenly change the route towards Xiushui,

I fear that it might affect the whole plan.

This... it's still disaster relief anyway.

Arriving at Jiangbei later by a day or two shouldn't cause a problem.

Junwang, our caravan is a huge one.

We can't afford to get delayed by even a day.

Let me give you an example. This is like delivering one mantou to a refugee. (T/N: steamed bun)

But along the way, we've eaten three of them.

Do you understand? This is called "incurring more losses than gains."

Based on what you said,

since we're going to distribute one hundred carts of food to the the affected citizens,

we then must eat three hundred cartloads of food along the way?

That's indeed what I mean. I'm just making an example.

Don't say anything further.

In disaster relief, one should go to the worst-hit place first.

Junwang, you're not getting my point. I want to talk to the General.

Where is she? Tell me. Where's the General!

General! General!

- General.
- What is it?

You be the judge here. The Junwang insists on changing our route to Xiushui.

Yujin, changing the route just because of Young Master Zhang's unilateral words,

I fear that it's inappropriate.

What about the affected citizens of Xiushui?

Let's just rush to Jiangbei and then go to Xiushui afterwards.

This is also what His Majesty has planned all along.

Fine.

General is wise.

Junwang... you're mighty.

Young Master Zhang.

Young Master Zhang!

Young Master Zhang, why do you frequently drop your fan?

Young Lord Yu, have you finished your preparations?

Young Lord Zhang, so sorry.

The food in our carts isn't just mine.

The other members of our troupe also invested some.

The opinion of the others is to go to Jiangbei first, for the price might be higher.

But even if you want to go to Jiangbei now, the path might not be open.

Why?

To go to Jiangbei, you must pass by Chedi Pass which is the grand canyon.

Chedi Pass means "completely dead."

Chedi Pass? Completely dead?

The grand canyon is made of towering mountains,

sheer cliffs, precipitous rock faces, and rapid streams.

Because of excessive rain, there will be frequent landslides and mudslides.

If you encounter it, not only a horse,

but even a bird won't be able to escape.

How far is this Chedi Pass from here?

Around one hundred li.

I'll go discuss it with them.

What? If it's really like what Young Master Zhang has said,

you just stay here in the inn and don't make any moves. Qiu Hua, Qiu Shui, and I will go check the situation.

If it's passable, we'll make our best to get past Chedi Pass today.

If the situation doesn't look good, we'll think of another way.

Going out is really troublesome.

We can only do that then.

General.

Chedi Pass

Chedi Pass...

Go look.

Qiu Shui.

General.

Looks like what Young Master Zhang said is true.

Once there is a mudslide, no living thing can survive.

- Qiu Shui, let's go.
- Okay.

Master, they're back...

How did it go?

A huge area of Chedi Pass has collapsed.

Thank you, Young Master Zhang,

or else, our caravan will suffer losses.

It will be big trouble then.

I'm a local, so I naturally know the local situation.

Lord Yu, what is your plan now?

Ah Zhao, you've been to war. What do you think?

If we can't proceed with the original plan,

let's reroute and go to Xiushui first.

While a soldier is outside, he can opt not to follow the military order.

Our path ahead has been damaged. We can indeed only do that now.

Qiu Hua and Qiu Shui, how is the calamity situation in Xiushui?

Younger sister and I went to check the situation.

We heard that the affected citizens are beyond tens of thousands.

There are also many more thousands who are still missing.

Houses and farms were also severely damaged.

Young Master Zhang, how is the road situation towards Xiushui?

Xiushui belongs to a hilly area.

It naturally won't suffer from landslides or mudslides.

But the path will surely be muddy and hard to travel.

No need to fear. If we meet a mountain, we'll just open a path.

If we encounter water, we will just build a bridge. We must deliver the food

to the most hard hit disaster area.

Right. This way, we can sell it at a high price.

I'll immediately inform the troupe about the change in routes.

Okay. Let's immediately set out then.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @ Viki

Qiu Hua, look. The road in front seems to be easier.

Stop the carriage!

Stop the carriage!

What's wrong?

I want to pee.

Quickly come here.

Tell them all to get off their carriages. We won't be stopping up ahead anymore.

We must reach Xiushui Province before nightfall.

Everyone, come down to do your deeds! We won't be stopping anytime soon again!

- We must reach Xiushui Province before nightfall!
- Okay.

Young Lord Yu.

Xiushui Province isn't far from here. I'll go on ahead. You all can take your time in your travel.

I'll made preparations to welcome your arrival.

Thank you, Young Master Zhang.

I'll take my leave.

The recent flooding

has completely washed away the Jiangbei region.

The food in our manor is almost all gone.

I heard that the disaster relief official sent by His Majesty is the son of Princess Consort Dowager Zhao, Zhao Yujin.

This person has quite a bad reputation.

How could he be able to bear such an important task?

Madam, this you don't understand anymore.

Disaster relief is a hard job.

You won't be able to get any profit and you might even offend people.

Those old foxes in the government will surely not accept it.

Zhao Yujin came from a noble family and is the nephew of His Majesty.

He and his wife are both earning salaries from the government.

Hence, it is quite reasonable to let Zhao Yujin come to handle the disaster relief.

It's just that...

His Majesty asked Ye Zhao to accompany him.

I keep feeling that His Majesty's intention

is actually something else.

Now that the disaster situation is very severe and there are starving people everywhere,

does His Majesty still have time to make other plans?

Jiangbei is originally a fief given to me by the late Emperor.

For many years, His Majesty never intervened.

But this time, I feel that His Majesty

wanted to use the excuse of providing disaster relief to check the strength of my manor,

and at the same time, get hold of my movements.

His Majesty may have his own plans.

But while we're here,

we can't just watch as the refugees starve, right?

Of course. Jiangbei's citizens

are all my citizens. I can't bear to see them destitute and homeless.

But since His Majesty was willing to send out an official to be in charge of disaster relief,

let's just be happy and wait for help to come.

The road from the Capital to Jiangbei is quite far.

The main road yesterday also suffered a mudslide

causing the bridge and roads to be washed away.

The disaster relief caravan has already turned back and gone to Xiushui Province first.

Wife, how do you know this?

Must you still ask me?

Hasn't your man been hanging around Zhao Yujin all this time?

Your Highness. Madam.

Wife, we have some minor matters to discuss.

How about you go back to your room first and rest.

How are the trainees?

Replying to Your Highness, the newly-arrived performers indeed are outstanding in beauty and are very intelligent.

Okay. In a few days, important guests will arrive.

You must hurry the training and must not slack off.

Yes.

Also, there has been both wind and rain these past days.

Madam's headache illness has been recurring.

Look for two smart maidservants to serve Madam day and night.

The medicines mustn't be stopped.

Also, frequently change the money plant inside Madam's room,

so that she won't be in a bad mood when she sees withering flowers and branches.

Also, in front of Madam,

you must not say things that shouldn't be said.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness,

the items are already prepared.

When does Your Highness plan to use them?

Tonight.

Yes.

Mom, I'm so hungry! I can't walk anymore!

Hurry! Hurry!

Mom, I can't walk anymore! Hurry and walk!

This... Who are these?

Hurry! Hurry and block them!

You are...

Save us!

What's going on outside?

Get up! Hurry and get up!

We also can't help you.

Get up. Get up.

Get up!

We also don't have any.

Hurry and get up. Blocking the road isn't a solution, too.

These refugees urgently need food.

But I fear that giving them rice won't be enough.

It might even delay our succeeding disaster relief plans.

Good thing Young Master Zhang has good foresight and took the relief goods we brought with him first.

That's right.

The situation here is worse than we imagined.

Please give us alms!

Disaster relief is no child's play.

It's not just a relaxing and fun trip,

but a difficult and scary road of thorny vines.

It concerns the life and safety of Song's thousands of citizens.

Get up!

Hurry and get up!

Everyone, please make way for us!

Get up! Get up! Please move aside, okay?

Please move aside!

Everyone, get up. Get up.

Please move aside.

Go to that side. Please move aside for a while.

Move! Move!

Everyone, please make way. Please move aside first.

Please move aside.

Everyone, please let them pass first.

Don't push...

Everyone, stop pushing. Stop pushing.

Don't push anymore. We can't do anything.

Stop pushing.

Lord.

Private Assistant, what good news do you have? Tell me.

The Imperial Envoy will arrive at Jiangbei soon.

Our Xiushui Province is also a heavily-affected calamity area, so they surely will come to check us.

To prepare for the Imperial Envoy having a sudden idea of investigating the dam,

I already secretly sent people to make repairs and concealment work on the dam.

Good!

I've also attacked with an iron fist

such that those complaining, stubborn citizens have either been beaten up or locked up

to serve as a warning to the others. There is currently nothing to worry about for now.

Good! But it's not yet enough.

Right. What you said is so right.

Not enough. But this is only the first step. I still have a second step.

The second step is I will increase the propaganda.

Right now, the rumors here in Xiushui Province

are all about the Imperial Envoy, the Nanping Junwang.

Tell me about them.

They said... it's them saying these, okay?

The Nanping Junwang is afraid of work, lazy, greedy for money, and a womanizer.

He came to Xiushui to provide disaster relief just to earn money and at the same time, get some beautiful women.

I've sent out this news.

The rumors now have spread all over. The citizens now

keep asking when the Imperial Envoy will arrive.

They've all put down their thoughts in complaining and are just focusing on hiding

their daughters, for they are afraid for that womanizing Junwang to see them.

You did great. Let's set up a perfect trap for him.

Let him walk into the net by himself. Let's catch him like a...

catching a turtle in a jar. (T/N: make him set himself up as an easy target)

- Go now.
- Yes.

Don't push! Don't push!

We're only selling three dou of grain today! Nothing more! (T/N: volume of about thirty liters/eight US gallons)

The one who will bid the highest price will get it. Who is willing to bid?

I'll pay three times!

Three times? Okay!

Three times. It's yours.

I was able to buy one!

Is there still any bidders? The highest bidder gets it!

There's not much left.

Are the people of Xiushui all this rich, using paper money to buy grains?

Just crude rice and noodles, yet they're being sold at such high prices.

After selling their houses, lands, and children, they of course will have some money.

What they are buying is life itself, and not just rice and noodles.

But they've sold their houses and lands. What about afterwards?

During a disaster, being able to survive a day is a day.

Being able to survive an hour is an hour. How can they still care about that much?

♫ From disaffection and doubt until trust is formed ♫

♫ How many times must two people embrace tightly before one won't feel like a stranger? ♫

♫ Turning back to think about the past life, while living in the present lifetime ♫

♫ In this lifetime, to never casually mention separation ♫

♫ Sincerely you embrace me, to remember my body's warmth ♫

♫ In the center of my heart, your fingerprints are engraved ♫

♫ Both love and hate, seriously taken to heart ♫

♫ Only for one not to live one's life in vain ♫

♫ I am willing to be loyally steadfast to you ♫

♫ Using this in exchange for a missing depth of affection ♫

♫ I'm grateful for your recognizing my worth ♫

♫ For granting me a healthy body ♫

♫ Even though the world is rich and diverse ♫

♫ It cannot compare to your pure and honest gaze ♫

♫ I am willing to be loyally steadfast to you ♫

♫ My only care in this life is one person ♫

♫ It's you ♫
