"The Moon Will Remember" Singer: Guo Jing - Lyrics: Tang Tian - Melody: Wei Guobin
♫ I want to ask the distant moon if that is you ♫
♫ Wearing rainbow colored clothes, dancing under the falling flowers, and accompanying me through the years ♫
♫ Is that you? But the moon won't speak ♫
♫ The shadows in pairs makes a line of a love poem ♫
♫ Protect my little light so it doesn't drift during the whirlwind ♫
♫ There is light in the dark and a wide umbrella in the rain ♫
♫ When the rims of my eyes become red, you hold out your hands to me ♫
♫ My tears then blossom in your palms ♫
♫ Protecting my slight stubbornness and accompanying me to watch the moon ♫
♫ It will remember how we looked shoulder to shoulder ♫
♫ Even with the onslaught of time and hardships caught on the corners of our eyes ♫
♫ It would still be the sweetness you'd given me ♫
[Ni Chang]
[Episode 24]
I'd like to ask My two Lords for a favor. [Yuan Manor]
Timing and subtitles brought to you by 💕Ni Chang Fans💕 @ Viki.com
- Lord Yuan. - Boss Su,
why bother Lord Yuan over such a matter as minor as entering the Imperial Market?
If you want to enter the Imperial Market, come back tomorrow to complete the procedure
and pay the head fee according to the rules. (TN: Head fee is one leveraged by the number of "heads" or employees.)
That's all.
Lord Gao, based on our friendship;
besides, I just paid the head fee last month,
- can I be exempted this time? - What kind of friendship do we have with each other?
Shouldn't you look at the current situation?
All the people who sent in the money, have already gotten cleared out.
If we can't make up for the loss in the future,
would the Bureau of Affair still survive?
Right! You're right, My Lord.
I'll act do accordingly then.
You're dismissed!
This beast, so ruthless to others.
Why hasn't Heaven struck you with thunder?
Hurry up, hurry up! Put this here.
- Older Sister Xiao Qin, - Put all of these up.
this place will become lively again.
It's usually quiet and deserted without anyone to talk to.
Still complain that there's no one talking?
Just you alone is like having ten people here.
Of course! If this manor is without me—
- Set this up here. - it will be much less fun.
Why are you so talkative all day long? Don't you know how to help?
Look, look! The guests are here.
Uncle, Auntie, you're all here.
- Miss Xiao Qin. - Miss Xiao Qin, Young Master Xiao Lu.
My Prince hasn't even changed his clothes yet.
I didn't expect that everyone would come so soon.
Why would His Highness change his clothes?
We're already so familiar with each other and it's not like it's our first time here.
This is His Highness' manor. Do you think this is our backyard at home? Be careful of what you say!
Follow the rules! You deserve to get hit.
Doesn't His Highness laugh happily every day?
- Why can't I talk when we're at his house? Look— - Shut up!
He has been reprimanded.
Haven't you been ignoring me?
Cheng Tian is right.
- Your Highness. - Your Highness.
Everyone, please make yourselves at home.
Besides, today was originally the celebration banquet for the opening of the Fragrant Herb Hall.
- Everyone, don't be so formal. - Look! No need for formality.
Then, I'll thank you, Your Highness, Prince Luo.
If I'm disrespectful in any way today, please bear with me, Your Highness.
- You... - No one has ever dared to say such things to His Highness.
Miss Ni Chang is our Prince's nemesis.
Did you see that? Times like this, is when my Prince will smile the happiest.
Just like how happy I smile when I see Older Sister Xiao Qin.
- Just joking, just joking! - Your Highness,
since everyone is here, let's be seated.
Alright. Everyone, please!
- Your Highness, after you. - Your Highness, after you.
Let's go!
Jealous?
- After you. - Uncle, Auntie.
Brother Lu. Older Brother Lu, please.
After you.
- Everyone, please take a seat. - Come, come, come!
Your Highness, Your Highness, please, please!
Why are you sitting next to me? Go and sit with Miss Xiao Qin.
Why would I sit next to her? Older Brother Lu will beat me up.
Let's sneak out later, I have something for you.
I don't want anything that someone else declined. I don't need it!
What are you saying?
You don't want it... I-I haven't given it yet.
Enough, enough.
Since Ni Chang came back from Xi State, business has been booming at the Fragrant Herb Hall.
Everyone has worked hard these days.
- We must have fun today. - Alright, alright.
Oh right! Miss Xiao Qing,
you have to accept this bracelet.
Auntie, I really didn't do much, you don't have to be so polite.
Your Prince has already said that we're all family.
Don't treat me as a stranger! Just accept it, please.
- This is just a small gesture. - Then, I thank you, Auntie.
This is the second time I've seen the splendor of His Highness' place,
yet I can still feel its elegance.
Don't talk nonsense! Can the homes of ordinary people be compared to His Highness' manor?
However, once our Fragrant Herb Hall enters the Imperial Market,
- there will be more opportunities for us to contact Your Highness. - Naturally!
But talking about the Imperial Market, once those bribes have been returned and the shops have retreated, you can join in.
Really? Our Fragrant Herb Hall can trade in the Imperial Market?
That's great!
I merely followed the order of the royal family to clear out the disqualified shops.
With the reputation of the Fragrant Herb Hall, just wait until a spot is vacant,
you'll be fully qualified to occupy it.
That's great! Thank you, Your Highness, for your help.
You don't have to thank me. I'm only...
being fair and just in handling my duties.
I really can't stand Your Highness being so serious.
I merely expressed my gratitude and you are making it into such a big matter.
Even saying those things.
Ni Chang is saying there are many other meanings in these words of thanks.
Your Highness, you don't understand the customs.
Yuan Xiang, don't talk nonsense!
Then about the customs just now, I shall
compensate Miss Ni Chang for being unaware of it.
- Let's do it together! A toast to Your Highness. - A toast to Your Highness together.
- Here's to Your Highness. - Thank you, Your Highness.
- Come, everyone. Help yourselves! - Alright, alright.
Here! Eat up.
Uncle, try this.
- Take what I (Yuan Xiang) offer! - Alright, alright, alright.
Uncle, have mine!
- Try this, Cheng Tian! - Auntie, try this!
Auntie, that one isn't very tasty.
Delicious or not, I haven't even tasted it yet!
[Lifetime Morality Will Spread Its Fragrance]
[Elegant Praise Promotes Harmony]
Speaking of this, Wenyu and Wenxiu's wedding,
we should get it done.
This... but we're still mourning for Eldest Master.
If we conduct a joyous event, I fear people will gossip, Second Master.
Do you think I don't know?
There's a slump now and our peers are squeezing each other out.
The appetite of the Bureau of Affairs just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
The Su family will be bankrupt soon!
The only way to recover from the decline now,
is to rely on this alliance marriage.
[Elegant Praise Promotes Harmony]
This matter will require the eldest uncle of the Yan family to appear.
Wenyu can then marry within his mourning period.
Be done with it! I will write a letter
to save my dignity and seek help from the Yan family
to settle this as soon as possible.
But... Eldest Young Master might not agree to it.
This isn't up to him!
I'll take a stroll alone in the garden to get rid of the hangover before I go back.
It's rare for everyone to be so happy today.
You also don't have to always accompany me.
I just fear you'll get drunk again.
My mind is still fresh with the memory of the scene from last time.
Last time?
- What did I do last time? - Last time?
"I want to fly to the moon."
Don't you talk nonsense!
- "I want to fly up there." - Stop talking now!
♫ The lush greenery one by one falls with so much sweet fragrance ♫
♫ From dawn till dusk, I think of you all the time ♫
I— ♫ Rouge tears like rain ♫
I also have something to show you. ♫ falling on wet spring soil ♫
[All Things Follow Logical Reason] ♫ In the end, like the fruitless tree, I have no enlightenment ♫
♫ Just like yesterday, a poem that sounds delicate ♫
Ni Chang, promise me.
Promise what?
In the future, if you have anything on your mind, tell me first.
Don't keep it in your heart to yourself.
And even more so, don't cry when you're alone.
When did I secretly cry when I was alone?
Usually, you don't.
But it may not necessarily be the case when you're drunk.
I already said not to bring up that day.
But on that day, when you cried,
you looked so beautiful.
Even more beautiful than the flowers.
♫ If I gaze into your eyes and if love is so hard to remember ♫
♫ I will conceal it in my heart during the long flowering season ♫
♫ Just like yesterday, a poem that sounds delicate ♫
♫ Yearning has no master and one would frown during late autumn and winter ♫
♫ As the memories starts to fade, the feelings are gone ♫
♫ The written words by the brush are so beautiful ♫
♫ Counting the flowers in bloom and falling flowers, I wait for you ♫
♫ Countless wounds and pains won't be able to stop me ♫
♫ If I gaze into your eyes and if love is so hard to remember ♫
♫ I will conceal it in my heart during the long flowering season ♫
Where are you taking me?
It's the middle of the night.
Wait!
Look!
This is the gift I specially picked out for you from Xi State.
Does it look nice?
Did you specially pick it out, or just by the way?
Who would know?
What are you saying?
I specifically spent five silver to carefully chose this for you.
Put it on and let me see!
Then... Then I'll put it on for you.
Don't move!
Quickly let me see. Let me see!
Beautiful!
Really beautiful.
Very beautiful.
The hair clasp I picked is so beautiful.
Cheng Tian!
Little Fatty, who told you to make me angry?
Stop! I'm going to stab you to death, Cheng Tian!
I want to kill you, Cheng Tian!
This time, regarding the Imperial Market,
it's not convenient for me to act in my capacity for you.
You have to go and meet the Second-in-Command Head of the Bureau of Affairs, Gao Xuan.
He manages this.
Then... What if he asks me for money?
If he requires money, then we just caught his weakness.
It would make it easy for me to show up.
I heard Xiao Lu say that you don't get along well with the officials from the Bureau of Affairs.
They keep on thinking up ideas to exclude you.
If you stand up for me, will it bring you trouble?
I've never been in-charge,
but since the royal family sent me to supervise the Bureau of Affairs,
naturally, I should do my duty.
Coincidentally, I disliked those who are like them early on anyway.
This time, they'll be punished altogether.
You're usually so carefree,
but because of me, you became tangled in these matters.
My heart really can't get over it.
If you say this, then you really don't understand me.
Even though I'm an idle prince who never cares for power,
when I encounter a problem I care about,
it's definitely worth a try.
[Su Manor]
Second Uncle, the rouge and perfume are all packed.
Once the bureau opens the Imperial Market next time, we'll enter.
In spite of this, you plucked up your courage and did it.
In addition, regarding the other businesses, we can't lose the silk business.
- You have to operate it well. - Yes.
Bother Wenyu is also much better now.
He's willing to go to the shop to manage it.
It's also much more easy on my side.
He manages things? Do you know,
he only used this as an excuse to fire many of my old buddies?
If the person was mine, he cleared them out.
What if those old buddies rely on
being old workers of the Su family for decades, and didn't want to listen to him.
Brother Wenyu is young and impetuous, naturally, he wouldn't be able to handle the anger.
He's just trying to fight with me.
However, I already called back all those old buddies he fired.
I temporarily don't want to go head-to-head with him.
- Thus, I settled them in your shop to help you. - Yes.
Wenxiu will definitely take care of these old buddies in your stead.
After all, they are the workforce of the Su clan.
It's still you who's more mature.
I'll head back now.
Miss, take care!
Second Master, this move you made is brilliant!
Everything is within your control, Second Master.
It's still not enough.
I want to take all of Yan Wenxiu's handiwork back.
Second Master, why don't we start with that maid who's always following her closely?
- We tell her to secretly learn from her? - Is that girl reliable?
Second Master, don't worry! This girl's whole family's contract is in our hands.
- She wouldn't dare not follow. - Good!
Then this matter will be left to you to take care of.
Yes, Second Master.
[Bureau of Affairs]
My Lord, a total of fifty three shops were cleared out.
The larger half of the Imperial Market has been emptied.
Ouyang Ziyu is too ruthless with this move.
He doesn't respect us at all!
Other than this, have you found anything else out yet?
Not yet.
However, I heard that one of his men is still investigating the Imperial Market.
It looks like it won't be finished any time soon.
So My Lord, what should we do now?
Are the people who requested to enter the Imperial Market from before still here?
All of them are still here.
They heard that the Imperial Market has dozens of vacant seats, so they're guarding outside and not leaving.
They say that they want to see you to enter the Imperial Market.
What do they want to see me for?
This is what Prince Luo is managing, so they should go to see Prince Luo.
His Highness Prince Luo will naturally give them an explanation.
Then just let them look for Prince Luo.
The bigger the commotion, the better.
Isn't Prince Luo really good at this?
Let's see how he's going to solve the problem this time.
- Let us in! - Boss Liu, you're here as well?
Everybody, did you all get to see Prince Luo? [Prince Luo Manor]
- Not yet. - Not at all.
- Right. - We want to see Prince Luo!
We want to see Prince Luo!
Please come out, Your Royal Highness Prince Luo!
What are you people doing here? His Highness Prince Luo is not seeing guests today.
He's not seeing guests? Then, when do we do with all these things?
We've been waiting for so long.
- That's Right! We want to see His Highness Prince Luo. - Yes. Help us enter the Imperial Market!
Without the permission of the Highness Prince Luo, it's impossible for us to enter.
- Exactly! - That's right!
We're imploring His Highness Prince Luo to accept these things and let us enter the Imperial Market.
- Exactly! - We want to see His Highness Prince Luo!
Help us enter the Imperial Market!
- Let us enter the Imperial Market! - Let me see His Highness Prince Luo!
- Your Highness! - Who are the people outside?
- Why are they so noisy? - Your Highness, don't even mention it!
There are many merchants who brought many gifts outside.
They are tumultuously clamoring that they must see you and that you must accept their gifts,
and let them get into the Imperial Market.
I told you we shouldn't have done all those things before.
You didn't believe it and look now! It hasn't been half a day yet, but
the rumor, "Prince Luo's Manor will only let merchants in the Imperial Market with bribes"
has already spread throughout the whole Imperial City.
Your Highness!
Your Highness, you can't go outside right now.
If you go out right now, it'll be harder to defend ourselves later.
I... I already told the guards to drive them away.
They're only marketplace merchants.
How would they have the guts to cause trouble at the Prince Luo Manor?
There must be a person instigating this.
I'm going to go outside to see what the people from the Bureau of Affairs want to do.
But... Your Highness!
The reason I've called everyone here today is to tell you all
that the Bureau of Affairs is opening a new marketplace for Imperial Market.
Merchants entering the Imperial Market need to have the management authority from the officials.
They also need to report the place of origin where the products came from.
Also, they have to have a good reputation.
Three big conditions, not a single one can be omitted.
The Imperial Market is different from external markets
and not for you to deceive and swindle.
Part of my minor tasks are the registrations for the Imperial Market.
Minister Gao and Minister Yuan will still need to settle this.
If anyone wants to use bribes to get in,
if I discover it in my investigation, I won't let you off that easily!
I'm leaving now.
Respectfully sending off Your Highness, Prince Luo.
- Minister Yuan, what should we do? - That's right! We already brought our goods here.
What's with the ruckus?
Leave now and wait for our news!
Let's go! So that's it.
Blatant bribery at the entrance of Prince Luo's Manor.
Someone has already reported this to the royal family.
I fear Prince Luo will find it difficult to protect himself.
Once the news of Prince Luo's acceptance of bribes spreads,
does he really think he can prove his innocence?
These princes and nobles
were born with a silver spoon in their mouths.
How could they understand the suffering of the people?
For us to earn some hard earned money, it's all because we have no choice.
We must exterminate him as soon as possible.
He deserves it.
Ouyang Ziyu won't meddle
with the process for getting into the Imperial Market again.
Seize the opportunity to dispatch some men to observe Prince Luo's Manor to see if he's taking any other actions.
If you enter the Imperial Market
and also have to manage the shops outside, you'll be super busy.
Unfortunately, I'm just a maid
and can't share your burden with you.
Don't think I don't know what you're trying to imply.
Do you want me to take you along on my business dealings
so you can learn a few things?
Yes, I'm bold and do have this plan in mind.
However, I have a slave contract for life with the Su family.
Whatever I learn, I still need to work wholeheartedly and effectively for the Su family, too.
I dare not be disloyal.
It's not a problem for me to teach you,
but you must understand, after learning this,
you should know whose side you're on.
I won't pursue the past,
but you should know how to behave in the future.
I understand.
With your support,
I surely won't forget your great kindness.
You may get up.
Yes.
You must be my arms in the future.
The top priority is to help me deal with that wench, Ni Chang.
Ni Chang is really just like a lingering soul.
I thought she had already left, but who knew she would come back alive again.
You must not be soft-hearted this time.
We must step on her until she's in the mud.
Don't worry!
Is she worthy to compete with me?
What are you saying?
Ni Chang isn't dead?
What has it to do with me whether she's dead or alive? I don't know.
Then tell me! Where's she now?
Young Master, release me please! I don't know anything.
No! I just overheard your conversation.
You must know. Tell me!
- Tell me! - Are you crazy?
Pushing and pulling a maid. How scandalous!
Not going to tell me? Fine!
I'll go look for her on my own.
Miss, Young Master already knows that Ni Chang is alive.
What should we do?
No problem! He would have found out sooner or later.
As for you, you are indeed loyal.
I won't mistreat you in the future.
Thank you.
With each purchase of makeup products from our shop,
if you find them unsuitable, you can come back for an exchange.
Alright, Boss. Then how do I use this ointment?
There's a pink one here.
- There's bright red, too. - Many people like this.
- Then I'll try it. - This is a bright red, a lot of people...
This red one is for you. It can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
Where ever you feel uncomfortable, just hang it there.
There's lavender in this blue sachet.
- You can smell it. It's very fragrant. - It does smell good.
- Madams, take care! - Alright.
Ni Chang!
When did you come back?
When I leave or return, do I need to report to you, Young Master Su?
Are you still angry with me?
Young Master Su, you're mistaken.
We're not that close.
Why would I be angry?
I know that the closure of your shop by Second Uncle, has caused a misunderstanding between us.
Subsequently, I heard that... I heard...
What did you hear?
Who did you hear it from?
Did you hear from Su Gongming that I died already and wouldn't return?
- Is that right? - Ni Chang, don't be like this!
Do you know how happy I am, seeing that you're alright?
I'm very busy. Young Master Su, please go back!
- Ni Chang... - Remove your hand!
We're very busy.
We don't receive customers like you who don't buy anything. Get it?
Cheng Tian, I have something to say to Ni Chang.
- Let me— - What else do you want to say?
Your Su family almost killed us in a foreign land so what else do you still want to say?
- Cheng Tian! - Ni Chang, I really didn't know anything.
Didn't know?
The evil deeds that you did, can you simply just disregard because you didn't know?
I should drag you to the magistracy office right now and you can tell them that you didn't know!
Cheng Tian, don't say anymore!
Young Master Su, now that it has been said, we might as well make it clear.
Your Su family must suffer the consequences for your evil deeds.
Take it that we don't know each other in the future.
Let's go!
- Ni Chang— - Get lost! Why are you still here?
Let's go!
Why did you stop me?
I wanted to ask him why they sent someone to try to kill us.
Don't yell anymore! We don't have any evidence right now.
If outsiders find out, they'll only say we're framing the Su family.
Are there no laws in broad daylight?
They contracted someone to commit homicide.
Why can't we talk about this out loud?
Before there are any results from the investigation, we can only endure it.
Besides, Prince Luo is still secretly investigating this.
Do you know that you'll harm everyone if you lose your composure?
Stop there!
Did you go to the Fragrant Herb Hall?
[Lifetime Morality Will Spread Its Fragrance]
Did you see Ni Chang?
What did she say to you?
Second Uncle, what do you want to say?
I'm asking you! What did she say to you?
She doesn't want to talk to me at all.
Then she didn't mention
the attack on the journey to Xi State,
was done by us?
Second Uncle, don't worry!
When Ni Chang met me today,
she was still furious with me about what happened before
and didn't mention the incident in Xi State.
She believed the attempted murder by that female assassin
was just a robber who was displaced.
However, Second Uncle, I'm advising you.
Don't let this happen again!
If one often strolls by the river, how can the shoes not get wet?
You should be careful.
You...
[Lifetime Morality Will Spread Its Fragrance]
Wenxiu, what do you think?
Ni Chang really didn't suspect us?
From what I know of her, if she knew we were behind this,
she would have made a move a long time ago.
Hence, Second Uncle, be at ease for the time being.
But what Wenyu said is right.
We shouldn't do this again in the future.
After all, it's too risky.
There are many other ways to deal with her.
We were apprentices from the same institute.
I'll never lose to her.
I do hope so.
Your Su family almost killed us in a foreign land. What else do you still want to say?
- Cheng Tian! - Didn't know?
The evil deeds that you did, can you simply just disregard them because you didn't know?
I should drag you to the magistracy office right now and tell them that you didn't know.
Second Uncle's attempted murder,
Ni Chang already knows.
Would she think that I participated in this, too?
Su family and Xie family.
Su family and the Fang Clothing Shop.
How do I resolve this?
What should I do?
Ni Chang, tell me!
How can I make this up to you?
Your Highness.
Your Highness, this is the entry list from the Bureau of Affairs.
Please take a look.
[Approved Name List]
Why isn't the Fragrant Herb Hall on this list?
Your Highness, I was just about to talk to you regarding this.
Cheng Tian came this morning.
He requested that you go to the Fragrant Herb Hall at your convenience.
I believe it's regarding this.
Your Highness! Your Highness,
a few days ago, the royal family has already lectured you regarding offerings of gifts from the merchants.
- In my opinion— - With the qualifications and reputation of Fragrant Herb Hall,
they didn't even make it to the list.
Something's clearly not right.
Yuan Daocheng's abuse of power.
- Should I still ignore this? - Yes, yes, you are right.
Your... Your Highness, you still need to avoid suspicion, too.
I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I?
- Your Highness— - Don't follow me!
Now, the Fragrant Herb Hall won't be able to enter the Imperial Market.
You don't need to worry now
and can display your skills.
Don't worry, Second Uncle!
I've already investigated the origin of supplies for Fragrant Herb Hall.
It's just some trivial novelties from Xi State.
Add to that, her deceptiveness and concoction skills
were able to coax those those unknowledgeable people to seek after them.
Our Su shop sells makeup products of genuine quality.
As long as we promote them, we don't need to worry about sales.
This is great.
You must suppress her in the rouge business.
You must not slack in your custom clothing business, either.
Don't you forget, that girl still has a special flair.
You must never let her rise up again.
Only then, will it be good for us.
Don't worry, Second Uncle.
When it comes to custom clothing, she'll never be better than me.
Furthermore, she copied clothes in the past
and is notorious for staining her reputation.
Just wait and see! I won't let her
gain a foothold in the Imperial City.
Uncle went to apply for entrance into the Imperial Market,
but the Bureau of Affairs wouldn't even accept his nameplate.
So I personally went with the nameplate, but was also refused.
Afterwards, Cheng Tian went to ask the person in charge of the Bureau of Affairs
under what circumstances we're allowed to enter the market.
But those people said,
this matter is up to Lord Yuan and that they don't know anything.
This was sent here this morning.
It's the current shops with entry into the market.
Many of the shops here don't have nearly the same reputation or ability as the Fragrant Herb Hall.
Why can they enter the market, yet we can't?
Obviously, the Bureau of Affairs are making things difficult for you.
Making things difficult? Why?
It must be because the Fragrant Herb Hall has been too famous recently.
It's caused other shops to be jealous.
Those old business shops with personal friendships inside the Bureau of Affairs
are using this chance to create problems.
You're saying... the Su family?
That's highly likely.
But if we don't enter the market, how can I investigate the false charges on the Xie family?
How can this be fair?
Don't be too anxious! I have another idea.
What idea?
Last night, I didn't sleep well.
This shoulder...
I'll massage them for you.
Is it good now?
- What idea? - I haven't thought of it yet.
But I'll figure it out soon!
Right here, right here! This side, this side, this side hurts.
Really!
Harder, harder.
So what's your idea?
Once I figure it out tomorrow, I'll tell you.
You can't do that.
I'll think of it right now. Let me think!
Idea...
Don't touch me!
I lost, I lost!
- Di'er. - Miss.
Do something for me!
I understand! I'll do it immediately.
Di'er!
Young Master.
Where are you going?
Young Miss wants me to take care of some things.
Young Miss, Young Miss.
You aren't a maid of the Su family right now, but Yan Wenxiu's slave, is that right?
You must be joking, Young Master.
Young Miss and you are of the same family.
- There's no need to sep— - What did Yan Wenxiu tell you to do?
I originally wouldn't dare to tell you.
Young Miss looked up your Eight Characters yesterday. (TN: aka Four Pillars of Destiny. A Chinese astrological concept for one's destiny/fate, divined by the two sexagenary cycle characters assigned to his birth year, month, day, and hour.)
She wants me to go to East street to find the fortune-teller, Blind Chen.
Why is she looking up my Eight Characters all of a sudden?
Can't you guess, Young Master? Young Miss wants to calculate
when her fate to be with you, will arrive.
- Then I'll head out. - Hold on!
Tell her! There's no need to search for Blind Chen.
I'll explain these Eight Characters to her.
This Su person is a born disaster.
If she wants to marry him, wait untill her next life.
Di'er!
Miss.
You're only a maid, so how dare you?
What nonsense are you spouting?
I can slap you for this!
Young Miss, if I didn't say it like that,
Young Master would keep asking.
I couldn't think of a good excuse at the moment.
Then you just let him shame me?
Please forgive me, Miss.
I didn't consider this.
It's all my fault.
Still standing here? Are you waiting for the sun to set?
Yes.
How dare you, Su Wenyu!
You shame me.
I'll take revenge on the person you like
and break your heart.
[Fragrant Herb Hall]
Yuan Xiang, why are you outside?
I'm thinking...
so what if our business is good?
If we can't enter the Imperial Market, then we can't populate our name.
It's so distressing.
Ni Chang, why aren't you distressed?
What's the use of being upset?
Our Fragrant Herb Hall has only just opened.
Our first priority is to gain stability.
As for whether we can enter the Imperial Market, that'll depend on fate.
But I heard Yan Wenxiu's new rouge shop entered.
I'm so anxious!
She can enter hers. What does it have to do with us?
Cheng Tian went to ask those shops in the back.
They all said they sent a gift to the Bureau of Affairs, yet why doesn't that work for us?
May I ask if Miss Ni Chang is here?
Miss, that's me.
- What do you want to buy? - My Mistress wants to make a few clothes
as well as some makeup.
Can Miss Ni Chang please come with me?
I'm sorry, Miss! I still have business in the shop this afternoon.
How about this? You can leave the address.
- Once my shop closes, I'll head over. - My Mistress is in a hurry.
Please don't hold out for too long, Miss Ni Chang.
You won't be lacking in silver.
Then Ni Chang, why don't I go?
Miss, let's go!
My Mistress said that it must be Miss Ni Chang.
Ni Chang, just go with her.
Aren't your ankles and neck tired from standing in the shop the whole day?
Don't worry! We're also here.
Alright, then! Then you watch the shop.
Don't be lazy!
Miss, please wait! I'll go to get my things.
Please wait!
Auntie, I also stay in the shop the whole day.
Why aren't you worried about me?
Our Fragrant Herb Hall can't enter the market,
and Ni Chang is upset but doesn't say.
This is a good chance for her to get some fresh air.
Let's go, Miss.
- I'm heading out. - Be careful!
Miss, what kind of clothes does your Mistress want?
Does she have a type of makeup she prefers?
Is her skin white or more yellow?
Miss!
Miss Ni Chang, we've arrived.
Please go in, Miss!
I won't be going inside.
I'll return the silver to you later.
Stop right there!
Everyone says Fragrant Herb Hall values their reputation.
Why isn't Miss Ni Chang going into a customer's home once she's arrived?
I won't do business with your family.
Business with the Su family is much easier than trying to shamelessly pull customers outside.
Miss, please watch what you say.
We're on the street.
Don't lose dignity for your Su Manor!
It's broad daylight, what do you want to do?
Please don't misunderstand, Miss Ni Chang.
Haven't you taken silver to come to make clothes for our Mistress?
They're only here to guide the way.
Please come in!

''Even if the Fireworks Finally Scatter'' Singer: Wang Rui - Lyrics: Tang Tian - Melody: Wei Guobin
♫ Dark clouds covered the moon and flowers turned into snow ♫
♫ Departures never end in life ♫
♫ I hope to end your tears, make you smile, and be daring without guilt ♫
♫ To see you again ♫
♫ How long must I gaze at the starlight, how many absurd things must I do? ♫
♫ So that my whole life will be passionate ♫
♫ To handle the impermanence, how far must I look into the distance? ♫
♫ To be able to stay by your side ♫
♫ My only wish is to live my life with my love ♫
♫ Even if the fireworks scatter in the end ♫
♫ I'll never regret the long suffering ♫
♫ How much more courage must I have, to walk towards you? ♫
♫ My only wish is to live my life up to your fate ♫
♫ And never let down the little light you left me ♫
♫ Just like the misty rain and haze in Jiangnan ♫
♫ Will you accompany me to embroider the brocade? ♫
Will you accompany me till the sky turns blue again?
