And guess what? Dong falls on it!
Xiaomei spreads the wealth, handing out bars o gold to the village and then when asked why he would leave, Xiaomei responds with, "My home with Yi Zhi Mei is better." I don't know, for as much of a moneygrubber as he's been shown to be in the past, leaving a literal mountain full of gold behind seems like a stretch, but whatever.
Now we move on to the next arc!
But it's Gexiao's arc and it's about the past between him, Wuqiu, and Ruyi, so no Sanniang Moments Of Hotness for a little while. This makes me sad because really, I just do not see the appeal of Ruyi, other than the fact that she's kind of a strong woman. Still, having this instead of Sanniang kinda bums me out.
And this is her at her best IMO.
Anyways, the story is from the past and Wuqiu wasn't Wuqiu, he was a farmer guy named Bao Laiying (which literally means, "sure to get rough") and he was your typical farmer guy. Weak and bullied and when some bandits accost them on the road, he was even willing to let the boss piss on his face to get them to let Ruyi go.
That's extra in some places....
Gexiao then shows up and saves the day and Ruyi is instantly smitten with him. They're going to the capital to clear Ruyi's father's name but since they be broke ass poor villagers, that went over like a brick. The Governor's Office put them in jail. When it was reported to Gexiao, who at this point in time was the captain of the Brocade Guard, he went and had them released, tearing up the linen letter that proves that the Jing name was falsely wronged.
As Laiying (Wuqiu) and Ruyi are walking down the street, some guys dressed in black tried to stop them. The evil Yan Song's hand at work yet again. Gexiao again saves the day but Wuqiu (Laiying....whatever) had run off with one of those guys running after him. He hid in a big "nightsoil" tank until the guy left and then went to find Ruyi again. Still covered in shit.
Always knew he was a shitty dude. Ba-dum-bum-psssshh!!
Seeing Ruyi all hugging on Gexiao made whatshisname lose it, even killing a dog for barking at him! Then he wakes up and takes things out on his 4 wives before a member of the Guard rolls in and reports that, "the brat is tough to break" and the episode ends. Hopefully, this means things will intercut between past and present because really...we need a Sanniang Moment Of Hotness around here.
