[Perfect Couple]

Episode Twenty-Six

Wake up right away if
you've had enough sleep.

You don't feel well?

My head hurts a bit.

Don't jump into the water for nothing.

It's all because of you.

If you hadn't thrown the necklace into
the pond why would I have jumped in?

I did throw it away.

But I didn't tell you to fish it out.

Do you have something to tell me?

I do.

Go ahead.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Because you don't dare to look at me.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about you.

Why are you so weird these days?

Young Master!

Young Master!

Young Master, Physician Gu and Miss Xue Er
are here to visit Young Mistress.

- Let them in.
- Yes.

This way, please.

- Xiao Xuan.
- Xiao Xuan.

Are you all right?

What brings you both here?

We heard that you were soaked
in water for half of yesterday.

We're here to visit you.

I'm all right.

How do you feel now?

Let me take a look.

You've caught a cold.

How did you fall into the water?

It's all because of him.

What's the matter?

Who knows why he's gone crazy?

Your pulse is a bit erratic but
you will be fine.

Take three servings of my medication
and I promise you a full recovery.

When Xue Er is sick, she recovers
quickly when she takes my medication.

What are you talking about?

What's the matter with him?

He's been acting strangely
for the past two days.

Just ignore him.

Yuan Bao, why did you bully Xiao Xuan?

Chang Feng.

Why are you pulling me back?

You won't let me say that? I have
to say it if I can't tolerate it.

Yuan Bao, look at yourself.

You bullied a girl

and had her soak in a water lily pond
for so many hours.

What are you going to do now
that she has fallen ill?

- Come and talk to me outside.
- Why are you pulling me?

Come and talk to me outside.

What are you doing?

Don't think that just because you're the
Young Master you can do whatever you want.

Listen up. I'll tell you off if you
do anything I can't tolerate.

Look at me.

How do I treat Xue Er?

Xue Er?

Xue Er?

You've only known her for a while

and you both hit it off so perfectly?

For a while?

What do you mean by that?

How did you meet her?

It is quite a romantic story.

I was collecting herbs
in the mountains that day.

I saw a bad person who was trying
to take advantage of Xue Er.

I plucked up my courage, saved her
and brought her back to the manor.

Aren't you afraid she
might be a swindler?

A swindler?

Yes, she is a swindler.

You're still dating her even if
you know she's a swindler?

Not only is she a swindler

but also a thief.

She's stolen my heart.

I'm willing to have her steal from me.

Are you all right, Gu Chang Feng?

Don't make me hit you!

When Xue Er and I first fell in
love, you encouraged me then.

What's the matter with you today?

We're buddies so I don't want you to
get both the Jins and Gus into trouble.

Do you understand?

If you're my buddy, you should be
supportive of me and Xue Er.

You might as well kill me if you won't
allow me to be with Xue Er.

No... How should I put it
to make you understand?

There's only one thing I understand.
I truly love Xue Er.

Chang Feng.

I think that I should go and
get Xiao Xuan's medicine?

Yuan Bao, I'll take my leave now.

Xue Er, I'll help you with that.

I can't be bothered with you.

Where are you going now?

I haven't found the necklace yet so
I'm going to look for it.

Don't waste your strength.

However great, it is a waste
when you wear it.

You're not fit for it.

Are you sick, Jin Yuan Bao?

What's the matter with you these days?

Have your brains been squashed by
a door or kicked by a donkey?

Why are you treating me like this?

How should I treat you?

You're so abnormal.

- I'm very normal.
- No!

You were never like this.

I've always been like this.

Especially when it comes to
treating women like you.

Women like me?

Explain yourself! What kind of woman am I?

Didn't you have something
to tell to me just now?

What is it?

It was about looking for the necklace.

- Is that it?
- That's it.

- Nothing else?
- Nothing!

- Are you sure?
- I am sure!

What now? Haven't you already
put on quite a show yesterday?

First, it was that hypocrite
who came to your rescue.

Then, your best friend, Xue Er

who came and pretended to
care for you.

And that silly Gu Chang Feng who
treated you and got you medicine.

Since you're all so good at acting

why don't you start a troupe
and act on stage?

Have you said enough, Jin Yuan Bao?

You can criticize me but why have
you criticized my friends as well?

Speaking of your friend

Miss Xue Er is so good at acting.

Why didn't she become an actress?

Let me ask you this. What is
Miss Xue Er's full name?

I...

You can't answer me?

You claimed to be her neighbor.

But now you can't answer that?

Why do I need to tell you that?

You don't have to.

But I noticed that you both
have one thing in common.

You both have such hypocrisy
in your eyes.

- Just like a dog.
- I...

Fine. From now on
you can do whatever you please.

You can soak yourself in the river
for a day if you want.

Please feel free to do so.

Nutcase.

Let's hurry up. Stop throwing a tantrum.

You haven't been to Chang Feng's
new pharmacy yet.

I'll take you there to have a look.

Didn't you just say that
Jin Yuan Bao is there as well?

I don't want to go there. He makes
me angry the minute I see him.

As the saying goes

'Couple's quarrels are quickly mended.'

Moreover, Yuan Bao treats you very well.

What are you still
throwing a tantrum?

Who knows what he has been
possessed by recently?

He keeps picking on me.
I didn't rub him the wrong way.

Chang Feng told me to take you
to his pharmacy.

He's brought Yuan Bao with him.

I reckon he's trying to
help you both make up.

Whatever the misunderstanding
you should both clear it up.

It will be fine once you have
cleared it all up.

Fantastic!

Great!

Wonderful!

Well done!

Dear neighbors, friends and family

'Physician Gu's Pharmacy'
is officially opened for business.

I welcome all of you to visit!

Well done!

On this special day

I have a favor to ask of everyone.

I would like all of you to bear
witness to my love.

I'm going to propose to the lady
I like, Miss Xue Er!

Great!

He's going to propose to you!

- Xiao Xuan...
- Xue Er.

Before I met you

there were only medical books and
medicinal herbs in my life.

I'm giving them all to you now!

And this pharmacy as well.
I'm giving it all to you!

I know that when other people propose

they present jade pendants and
jewelry as gifts.

They are all valuable gifts.

But what I'm giving you is what
I considered most precious to me.

I'm giving it all to you.

I know that marriage isn't that simple.

Perhaps in the future, we will argue
a lot like Xiao Xuan and Yuan Bao.

But I swear that I will always
give in to you.

I won't argue with you.
I'll always obey you, all right?

As long as you marry me

I'll make sure that our love
will always be intact.

- Please marry me.
- Marry him!

Marry him! Marry him!

Say yes.

Marry him! Marry him!

Say yes! Hurry up!

Marry him. It's so touching.

Marry him! Marry him!

Hold it!

Yuan Bao?

Gu Chang Feng, are you insane?

You can't marry her!

No, what on earth are you doing?

It took me a long time to come up
with such a romantic proposal.

Will you stop messing around?

It took you a long time
to come up with that?

Is this fun?

I thought that you were just a dork.

But now I realize you have
no brains at all.

Is marriage a child's play?

Have you thought of Jin family?
Have you thought of Gu family?

Have you thought of your mother?

Have you got any brains?

Jin Yuan Bao, what are you doing?

What Chang Feng did was so touching.

I was almost moved to tears.

Ignore him.

This is between the both of them.
It's none of your business.

- Shut up!
- I...

You're such a brainless woman!

How dare you encourage him!

I... What have I done again?

I'm sincere about giving them
my blessing.

Unlike you, who is
so narrow-minded!

Yuan Bao, I know what you're thinking.
You're worried about my mother, right?

You're worried if my mother
learns of this, she will make a fuss.

I know that!

But Xue Er and I are truly in love.

If we aren't worried about that
then you shouldn't be either, okay?

Chang Feng...

I won't let you down.

Xue Er, ignore him.

He's been abnormal these days.

He's been acting really weirdly.

Say yes! Hurry up and say yes.

Marry him!

Yes! Marry him! Marry him!

Marry him.

Marry him! Marry him!

- Marry him! Marry him!
- Fine.

- Marry him! Marry him!
- You've all gone insane.

- Marry him! Marry him!
- You're crazy! You're crazy!

You're crazy as well! Fine!

- Marry him! Marry him!
- You've all gone insane!

Everyone is insane!

Carry on with this farce!
I am done with you!

Marry him! Marry him!

Young Master, why are you
drinking alone?

Are you unhappy about something?

Ah Fu...

Let me ask you a question.

If you have a friend who knows that
there is a fiery pit in front of him

but insists on jumping into it

what would you do?

What kind of a fiery pit is it?

He's infatuated with a woman.

A vixen?

All vixens are bad.

Young Master, you have to talk him
out of it.

But he won't listen to any advice.

The you can only act swiftly to
break it off for him.

Break it off for him?

But he would hate me?

One day when he understands
he will be grateful to you.

Ah Fu, I reward you this wine.

Young Master...

Greetings, Mother.

I wonder what important matter
has made Madam Jin gather us here?

Yuan Bao is the one who wanted
everyone to gather here.

He said that he has an important
announcement to make.

Greetings, Mother.

Yuan Bao, you said that you wanted
everyone to gather in the hall.

What important announcement
are you making?

I'm taking a concubine.

Taking a concubine?

Taking a concubine?

Yuan Bao, when I mentioned getting
you a concubine last time

you objected to it very fiercely.

That was why I agreed to your decision.

But why are you the one who wants
to take a concubine now?

Mother, I was too un-filial then.

I was unreasonable.

Mother meant well but I let you down
and even upset you.

It is my fault.

That is already in the past.

Don't bring it up again.

So you have thought it through now?

I've already thought it through.

It's very reasonable for a man
to have several wives.

Moreover, I am the Young Master
of Jin Manor.

The Young Master of Jin Manor
takes a concubine for Jin family.

It is considered producing more
offspring for the family.

How can you say that to Mother?

Shut up.

You've been married into Jin family
for a long time.

Haven't you learned not to interrupt
others when they are talking?

You...

Yuan Bao has now become so mature.

I am very happy about that

but which lady do you intend
to take as your concubine?

I'm taking Xue Er as my concubine.

- What?
- What?

Yuan Bao, you want to...

You want to take Miss Xue Er
as your concubine?

That's right.

Mother, Yuan Bao is just joking with you.

Who's joking?

I've already thought it through clearly.

I...

Last time, Miss Xue Er
was our first choice.

Now that Yuan Bao has agreed to it

this is now a joyous occasion.

Wait a minute!

What on earth are you trying to do?

What am I trying to do?

What? I'm already being very clear
and you still don't get it?

You didn't bring your ears with you
or is it your brains?

I have already told you.

You have to divorce me before
you can have any concubines!

I finally understand it now.

You've been stirring things up
between me and Xue Er

because you want her for yourself!

Chang Feng, what are you doing?

Jin Yuan Bao, didn't you say that
you'd never hurt your friend?

Didn't you say that
you'll always do what's good for me?

You said such honey-coated words but
you have a heart darker than ink!

To think that I've treated you
as a brother for 20 years

but you're actually such
a despicable person!

Save your breath, fool. Leave now.

I don't care if I'm a fool.

If you dare to lay a finger on Xue Er

I'll fight you to death! Do you hear me?

- Chang Feng!
- Do you hear me, Jin Yuan Bao?

How dare you attack Yuan Bao for the
sake of a woman! Are you crazy?

Jin Yuan Bao!

The first slap is for
your cold-heartedness!

The second slap is for your
shamelessness and treachery!

The third slap is for
betraying your friend!

- The fourth...
- Stop it!

How dare you slap your husband!
That is so inappropriate.

Now I understand why Yuan Bao changed
his mind and now wants a concubine.

As long as I'm alive

you're not to make an uproar in this place!

I have decided on this matter.

Xiao Cui, here.

Start making arrangements right away.

Yes, I'll get it all arranged now.

What are you doing?

I'm writing our divorce papers.

From now on, it is over between us.

You are you, and I am me.

Show it to me.

The format is all over the place.

Your handwriting is like worms.

These kind of divorce papers are useless.

It's a waste of time writing them.

Go ahead and tear it up.

I'll just write another one.

Didn't you try all that you could
to marry into Jin family?

Why do you want to leave now?

What do you think Jin manor is?

A tea house or a public bath?

You can come and leave at will?

You'd better get this straight.

I'm the one who is divorcing you.

Don't you even think about it.

I would be the one to
divorce you if we divorced.

You married into Jin family.

You belong to Jin family and
you'll die as a member of the Jins.

As for Miss Xue Er

she came uninvited and
stirred up so much trouble.

Now she wants to leave? No way.

The dignity of Jin family
is not to be trampled on.

I'll divorce you if you dare
to take a concubine!

I am definitely taking this concubine.

Get back here. Hit me.
Have you had enough?

Hit me! Go on!

- What are you doing, Jin Yuan Bao?
- Hit me!

- Let go of me!
- Go on!

Let go of me!

What are you doing?

Before I wed the concubine
you're not to go anywhere.

Stay here obediently.

Anyone there? Come and take
Young Mistress away!

Yes.

Let go of me!

- Where are you taking me?
- Jin family's ancestral hall.

Before I wed the concubine

I want you to reflect on
yourself in there.

I didn't do anything wrong!

- You're the one at fault!
- Shut up!

Let go of me!

What are you doing?

Lock her inside.

I'll have her reflect on
herself in there.

Are you still Jin Yuan Bao?

I am Jin Yuan Bao but you are...

- Take her away!
- Move!

Open the door!

Jin Yuan Bao, let me out!

Jin Yuan Bao!

Aren't you afraid of bad karma by
doing this before your ancestors?

I'm doing this for the sake
of Jin family.

If you're sensible
then you'd better behave.

Ah Gui, Ah Fu, without my permission
no one is allowed to let her out.

Yes.

Yes.

Jin Yuan Bao!

Let me out!

Yuan Bao, I heard that you've locked
your wife in the ancestral hall.

Why has it gotten so bad?

She's unhappy with me taking
a concubine.

She talked back to me

and even hit me.

She's met the
'Seven Grounds for Divorcing.'

I've locked her in the ancestral hall
so that she can reflect on her mistakes.

Xiao Xuan did go overboard.

I can understand her jealousy.

But she still has to show you
some respect.

She made such a fuss today

and even slapped her husband.

This is indeed inappropriate.

Mother, don't worry.

I will take care of this matter.

However, you need to have
her understand the reason for this.

After all, your marriage was bestowed
by Empress Dowager.

Moreover, she is your wedded wife.

Your wedded wife and concubine
are not the same.

You have to consider her feelings.

Yuan Bao, the wives of a huge
manor may seem to have it all

but who would know the pain
and suffering in their hearts?

Don't worry, Mother.

I will abide by your teachings.

Yuan Bao, we need to talk.

You've come to see me now
but I'm very busy at the moment.

We're getting married in
three days' time.

If there is anything you need to say
you can say it three days later.

I'm not here to pick a fight with you.

I think that we should still have
a conversation in a civilized manner.

We have nothing to talk about.

In regards to taking a concubine

Auntie Gu will be making
the arrangements.

She will inform you then.

Since you don't want to talk to me

why don't you answer a few questions?

Why don't you ask yourself and
then tell me your honest answer?

Are you going to ask me if I love you?

Let me tell you this.
I am not Gu Chang Feng.

I won't answer such a childish
and meaningless question.

You're right.

My first question is

do you love me?

I'm sure that you know this better
than anyone else.

You don't love me at all.

Is love so important?

When have you ever seen a respectable
lady mention love all the time?

Miss Xue Er has such great manners.

Since you don't love me

and you objected sternly to Madam Jin's
previous suggestion of

taking me as a concubine

why have you suddenly
gone back on your word?

Don't give me the excuses
you made up to appease Madam Jin.

I won't believe a word of it.

Allow me to answer for you.

You had a fight with Xiao Xuan.

You want to provoke her with this matter.

Or you're trying to make her
bow her head down to you.

Am I right?

Yuan Bao, none of us
are children anymore.

Stop throwing a tantrum
in this matter.

All right?

Moreover, taking a concubine
isn't some simple matter.

I know that you love Xiao Xuan very much.

Otherwise, you wouldn't make
such a huge fuss about it.

Frankly, she loves you very much as well.

All right, stop making a fuss about it.

I'll help you persuade her
to make up with you.

The both of you should
kiss and make up quickly.

You think I'm deliberately
taking you as my concubine

to provoke her into making up with me?

You really do think quite a lot.

You're so good at making up stories.

Sorry, I've forgotten that

you're both the best at
making up stories.

I've finally had a taste of that again.

My apologies.

Yuan Bao, stop it.

Jiang Xiao Xuan and I already
have enough on our hands.

Stop making things more difficult for us.

Put an end to this farce now.

I'm stirring up trouble?

You were the ones who
got yourself into this mess.

I hereby inform you seriously

that I am definitely taking you
as my concubine.

Fine. I have another question for you.

I am a free woman.

I don't belong to Jin manor.

Why do you get to marry me
just because you want to?

Listen up. I don't consent to this.

Your words have reminded me.

Anyone there?

- Present! Young Master.
- Young Master.

Take my second mistress to
her new chamber

and look after her.

Should anything go amiss

I'll hold you responsible.

Jin Yuan Bao, who are you to
hold me captive?

This is house arrest! Do you still
respect the law?

I am the law.

I will say the same words that
I said to Jiang Xiao Xuan.

Jin manor isn't the place where you
can come and leave at will.

Take her away.

- Yes!
- Let go of me!

- You...
- Let's go.

Let go of me!

Is anyone there? Let me out!

- Physician Gu...
- I have to see Xue Er!

On what grounds can Yuan Bao
keep her captive?

- You can't go in there.
- Xue Er is mine.

Who is he to lock her up?

Who does he think he is?

No way! I have to go there.

- What's the matter, Physician Gu?
- Ah Fu.

Take me to Xue Er.

Physician Gu, this time, Young Master
gave very strict orders

no one is to enter without
his permission.

Who is Jin Yuan Bao to lock Xue Er up?

Xue Er is my Xue Er!

Physician Gu!

I'll take you there.

But the doors are already locked.

You can only see each other through
the slits of the door.

- You may both have a break.
- Yes.

Wait for me!

- Xue Er!
- What are you doing?

Buddy, let Physician Gu go over
there to say a few words.

- Just for a while then.
- Xue Er!

Xue Er! Xue Er!

Chang Feng!

Xue Er!

Chang Feng!

Are you all right?

This is the peppermint
candy that I've made for you.

It can keep you alert and awake.

It can also make you feel less
hungry. It tastes very good.

Try it.

Xue Er, don't worry.

I'll definitely think of a way
to get you out of here.

Then we will leave together. We'll go
to a faraway place and never come back.

It's very sweet. It's really tasty.

Jin Yuan Bao is obviously
keeping you here by force.

I am going to sound the drums
at the Detectives' Bureau.

I'm going to sue him!

Don't be silly. You will never
manage to defeat him.

All the officials
cover for each other.

How could you possibly defeat him?

Chang Feng, don't worry.

I'd rather die than marry Jin Yuan Bao.

I will never betray your love for me.

Every word and sentence that you said
during the proposal

are deeply engraved into my heart.

- You'd rather die than marry me.
- Young Master.

Well-said, Miss Xue Er.

I can't bear to have you dead.

Nor am I willing to see you dead.

Jin Yuan Bao, have you gone insane?

You knew that Xue Er and I
have pledged till death do us part.

Why do you have to take her
as your concubine?

We've been friends for
over 20 years already!

Chang Feng, friends are as
close as siblings

while women are like clothing.

You said it yourself

that we've been friends
for some 20 years now.

Why would you destroy our friendship
for the sake of a woman?

Why would any man be worried
about not being able to have a wife?

I'll get you one in the future.

Jin Yuan Bao!

Chang Feng!

How can you even say such words?

You're a sick lunatic!

Listen up! I don't want anyone
except for Xue Er!

I haven't gone crazy.
You're the one who is insane.

You're completely infatuated
by this woman.

Chang Feng, one day
you will understand that

everything I did
was for your own good.

I won't understand that.

I won't ever understand that!

I'm warning you. You'd better release
Xue Er right now.

Release her now!

And dismiss the decision to
take her as your concubine!

Or I will never let you off!

Do as you wish. Take him away.

Yes!

- Move.
- Let go of me.

- Move it!
- Xue Er!

- Chang Feng!
- Xue Er!

- Xue Er!
- Chang Feng!

Jin Yuan Bao, why are you doing this?

Let me out right away!

Jin Yuan Bao, you're a lunatic.

You're the one who betrayed
me in the first place.

Don't blame me for dealing with you.

It's not enough. I'll give you
a stronger dosage.

This won't do. I have to give it
a bigger boost of a dose.

I'll let this evil man pay a price
for it with his life!

Even if Jin Yuan Bao was dumb, he wouldn't
drink anything that smells so bad.

Are you here to reason with me again?

You're such a persistent dork.

I...

I'm here to bring you your medication.

You... You don't seem to be
very energetic these days.

I've brewed you a concoction
to settle your nerves.

Didn't you say that you wouldn't
let me off easily?

What now? Have you changed your mind?

You're too abnormal these days.

You must be ill.

I'm a doctor so... I want to cure you.

It's good that you haven't forgotten
that you are a doctor.

Doctors must follow a code of ethics.

They aren't allowed to
drug anyone at will.

Otherwise, they might kill someone.

I...

I don't believe that I can't drug you.

This won't be a problem.

It's too big. This will be easily spotted.

This is it!

What are you doing here again?

I've left something behind.

You've left something behind?

Is it your soul that you've left behind?

Where is it?

I heard you've assumed office at
the Bureau of Weaponry.

- Your mother's here!
- My mother?

My mother's not here.

I was mistaken.

Understood.

- Your father's here!
- My father?

My father's been dead for years.

Understood.

Understood.

Have some water.

Are you very warm?

Hot... It's really hot in the room.

It's so hot.

I'm sorry!

Are you all right? Are you all right?

Go and get your trousers changed.

This tea might have been spiked.

Brainless.

Cunning...

You're really cunning.

I have to come up with an even better
way to deal with someone like you.

This one... I'll let you itch all over.

This one... I'll let you
have the runs for days.

Chicken broth will expedite
the effects of the drugs.

The effect will be doubled.

You're doomed to suffer.

Am I being too mean?

He can't blame me.

You are the mean one.

I could only be mean to a mean person.

Young Master, I'll take my leave.

Physician Gu, what is it?

Hold this.

This smells so good. This is...

Take this in to Yuan Bao.

Me take it to him? Why don't you
take it to him, yourself?

He wouldn't drink it if I take it to him.

No, that's not what I mean.

I mean to say that Yuan Bao has been
having a bit of a squabble with me.

He gets annoyed when he sees me.

You should take it to him.

I understand. I'll take this to him.

You mustn't tell him that this is from me.

I get it.

Young Master.

Have some chicken broth.

When did you learn how to
stew chicken broth?

This was made by someone else who
had Ah Fu bring it in to you.

Try it. This chicken broth
smells so good.

All right, leave it.

- I'll help myself to it.
- Sure.

Young Master, I'll get going.

He's going to drink it...

Such a poisonous soup...

He's really going to drink it...

What is the matter?

Chicken broth is spoiled...
You can't drink it.

Why can't I drink it?

It smells very good.

It's spoiled. Anyway, it's spoiled.

It's spoiled...

Xue Er, this is all my fault.

I'm so useless.

One more step and I was almost there!

But I couldn't do it!

Chang Feng, what do you mean by that?

Do you mean to say that you've done
something to Jin Yuan Bao?

I was just a step away.

I really hate myself!

Chang Feng, no matter what happens
you mustn't do anything silly.

Xue Er, stay out of this.

For your sake, I'm definitely going
to man up for once.

Chang Feng! Chang Feng!

Chang Feng! Don't do anything silly!

Young Master!

Physician Gu asked me to
hand this to you.

A cartel for a duel?
He's challenging me to a duel?
