Episode 9 - S1.E9

MING is absolutely depressed from being late to the exam. He eventually cheers up under FU and the others’ encouragement. TING keeps sending him presents and money but only gets his scolding in return. She is attracted to him after knowing he is indifferent to fame and material pursuits, and a filial son to his mother. She even sends ON ON to buy all his paintings.

TAK understands how much FU wants to take the exam with the others, but is willing to let FU go only if he gets married again. FU tries to find another wife with his drawings. LIN misinterprets him and tries her hardest to find all he needs for this ritual drawing. Finally, she finds the paints from BUN who is working as a portrait painter now. LIN finds someone to forge FU’s drawings and humiliates him in front of every woman in the town after she realizes that FU has never considered her as his wife. This also ruins his marriage plan.
