I should have a little more faith in Xu Xian and Suzhen. They easily take care of the situation. Suzhen apologizes for Qing Er, as she likes to play tricks and Xu Xian gives a little more money to give back to the people. Qing Er feels bad, because she couldn’t even earn money for them and even gave them more trouble. Suzhen says she forgives her, she knows she meant well, and Xu Xian apologizes for not being able to provide for them and promises he will turn things around soon enough. Qing Er is about to tell him there’s no use in going asking for a job, but Suzhen stops him from doing so and suggests that he opens his own practice. Was about time. He objects that it takes too much money, but smart Suzhen just tells him that wherever he is, it could be his office since he has the qualifications to be a doctor. So she decide to do everything in her power to help him open his practice and she learns so much with big sis.

Suzhen then works really hard to make a new kind of cream and it’s actually getting really popular because of the perfume. Even when people consult Xu Xian, they want to buy some more. Even her embroidery his popular, but he refused to take an order, because her hands are already all hurt from the work and he doesn’t want her to work that hard. She came to send him lunch and he gets a little upset because he told her to eat first and then send it to him. They so cute, having a competition about who is more hard working.

During his meditation, Fahai encounters a devil spirit which claims to actually be himself, like his dark soul? Wow. This is interesting. Like, Fahai dedicated his life into chasing demons and as everybody else, he also has his inner demons. Oh my. What happened to master monk? Did he died? Wait what? He gives him something that can oversee any illusion and asks him to go on a journey.

Xu Xian takes Suzhen to his parents’ grave, to introduce her. Right then, they bump into that ugly official. He forces them into kneeling in front of him and he threatens Xu Xian, saying he doesn’t need to go greet his parents because he’s going to make sure he joins them in death anytime soon, plus he will give Suzhen to his son because he likes her. Suzhen hahaha. She’s so petty. She’s like who are you to pretend to kill my husband and give me to your son as if we are objects? How about you walk on a stone and fall on the ground?

Finally, they manage to have enough money to open their own practice. I am so happy for them awww. But I fear that official, Minister Liang, is going to bring them troubles again... Yep they did. They made sure that some old people and orphans get infected with a really hard to heal disease so they would all go to Baohe tang, Xu Xian’s place, which is bad for them because I didn’t properly understand. But. I don’t care, because they will manage. Oh. The medicine for that disease is really hard. It’s a cream that you shouldn’t ingest. I still don’t get it. But okay. I am not a Doctor. Xu Xian senses there’s something wrong, because that old granny (from the boat) was doing great two days ago, it doesn’t make sense that she got the disease so fast. Oh my god. That underling of the minister offers a mantou to that old lady, but she decides to keep it for her husband. Then he forces her eating. Oh my gosh. What? Old lady ): Why would they kill her ):

So they come to arrest Xu Xian for killing the old lady. What? I mean, she’s like a beggar and nobody would have cared about her if she died of hunger, but now? What the hell?

Well sorry guys. Xu Xian is too smart for you. You should plan better. And wait for Suzhen to come back with evidence. Pfff. As if you could hurt them. Yep. She comes with the old lady’s husband. He also had the disease, but didn’t dare to tell his wife not to worry her, and since she’s blind, she wouldn’t know. And he never let her use Xu Xian medicine because of the ingredient in it, he was worried, but he tested the medicine on him first. And it indeed healed him. He only used a little, so there’s still left to see if it could kill his wife. Omg. He saw somebody killing his wife ): Poor little old man. He recognizes the minister’s underling. He’s evil, I hope he gets caught but... he has a way too important boss. I don’t think he will get punished. Even though it as been proved he’s the culprit. Poor old lady. Poor old man.

Xu Xian made a little extra money and gives some to Qing Er. She hurries to go spend it on alcohol and meets another alcohol lover. Is it a good encounter? That guy picks medicine in the mountains. Xu Xian is looking for good quality herbs. Is that the beginning of a partnership? And a love interest?

So the next they post a announcement as they are looking for good quality medicine, like specifically what they need. So Zhang Yutang comes along and he shows to Qing Er snake eggs haha. She’s so uncomfortable and asks him to watch by himself, but he doesn’t know how to read. Haha oh wow. Everything he has in coming from snakes. She looks so unwell, he thinks she got sick from drinking too much and wants to give her medicine made from snake hahaha.

Ruyi is so happy that Xu Xian bought her the desert she likes. He tries to talk about how he hopes she doesn’t marry somebody without moral like that Wang Daoling, as her big brother he hopes the best for her. However that makes her angry, she believes he has not his say in this. So Xu Xian leaves, seeing it’s useless and hearing a woman crying to save her son. The price of the medicine got higher and she can’t afford it. Right then, Suzhen comes right in with her medicine, which is free, and save that little boy.

Oh look, Fahai is back again. Just when people rushes to Baohe tang. Fahai is so confused about Suzhen. Why a demon would try so hard to help humans?

Some people go to Jishi tang because the medicine is actually just flour and they have to give back the money. Wang Daoling goes and checks on his medicine only to realize it was replaced by flour. So he goes to get a free one from Baohe tang and yep, that’s his medicine. He’s going to try and take revenge.

They almost used up all the medicine and Suzhen finally tells Xu Xian she was also doubting that Wang Daoling so she followed him and found the antidote. He scolds her a little, because they should discuss that kind of things together and also her technique isn’t stopping Wang Daoling from poisoning the people. So they have to find a way and they invent a new medicine. Well it’s fake like. Anyways, he got trapped.

Late at night, when he’s about to put more poison in the well, he gets arrested by Li Gongfu for poisoning the people, but he escapes using his spiritual energy powers. Suzhen and Qing Er hurts him, but he had a core in reserve so he healed faster. And he’s really mad.

The people are mad and they try to get back at Jishi tang because of what Wang Daoling did. Well, Ruyi didn’t know he was poisoning the well. Xu Xian runs to save her, with Suzhen.  But then she’s mad again, she blames everything on Suzhen and when Xu Xian realizes he can’t put some sense into, he just leaves and takes Suzhen with him. Then Ruyi threatens to kill herself and while saving her, Xu Xian hurt himself. She tries to give him medicine for his injury, but Suzhen declines and they leave her behind.

Suzhen is so angry about what happened and she doesn’t want Xu Xian to go try to persuade Ruyi again, what if she hurts him for real next time. Xu Xian is surprised to see so angry, since she’s a living bodhisattva but Suzhen tells him that she didn’t do anything because there were people to watch and that’s the only time she will spare her from doing something like that. Awww. Suzhen is so protective of her hubby. Nobody hurts my Xu Xian.

Frog guy rescued Ruyi when she fainted in the rain and brought her to his den. This is not good. But it’s kind of cute how much he tries to get her to like him.

Yutang comes back to give medicine to Xu Xian, he even got some herbs for Qing Er. No more snakes since she fears them. Xiao Qing is just me? Afraid of snakes? Since when? hahaha. She’s about to say that she’s a snake but Suzhen interrupts by having a look at the medicine and praises it. When it comes to payment, they argue a little bit, like happily, and Xiao Qing ends up pushing Yutang and he has not much energy. It’s because he has a heatstroke. She wants to make him some medicine but he says, it’s fine, he just needs to sleep and rather points out that everybody is having that problem and not making enough money to afford the medicine. Especially the old people.

Ruyi followed Wang Daoling and discovers that he’s a demon. She then screams out of fear which alerts him of her presence. Poor little frog guy. She’s so scared of him and she threatens to stab him with her hairpin. He’s in love with her since he first saw her. If it could help her feel better, he’s letting her stab him, but in the end, she doesn’t do it. So basically, he’s the same as Jin Song? Sent back to the mortal realm, but used to be an immortal? To prove it, he says he’ll take her somewhere.

Suzhen and Xu Xian fight again, but you know... Xu Xian is so good at making his little wife happy. She wanted to give medicine for free, but it’s a little more complicated than that. If they do so, they will irritate all the other doctors’ office, plus they won’t be able to survive without the money. So he suggests that a few days they have a small clinic and give free advices to the people how to fight against the diseases. Suzhen is then happy.

Xiao Qing seeing them is quite happy that she has no interest in those human behaviours. But then her eyes meet Yutang’s eyes huhuhu. Is she really not interested?

Hahaha, when he tries to give her the medicine, Qing Er goes wild she’s like get out with your garbage. Poor Zhang Yutang, he has no idea. Xu Xian goes to have a look and thinks the medicine is good quality, but Qing Er won’t let him buy, thus Yutang leaves angry. Qing Er is angry too an follows him to prevent him from hunting anymore. She invokes some fog and he chases a green snake, but in the fog, he falls down a cliff. Then Qing Er saves him. Well, she doesn’t like him that much it seems. I believe that would be the cliff Ruyi fell down from hmmm.

So made up and he even gives her a piggy back. Would that be Qing Er’s first love? I mean, after Suzhen, because she’s definitely in love with Suzhen too. Anyways, he does kind of like her too, because she’s not like all of the other ladies. Of course. She wanted to be a boy. She took a girl’s form only to stay with Suzhen.

What? Why is frog guy putting something in the well in the middle of the night? This is like... so random?

Awww Xu Xian is getting jealous. Basically, some ladies came in pushing and pretending they had a problem to see Xu Xian the cute doctor, but to drive them away, he said that girl patients should consult with his wife instead. When they are gone, he asks Suzhen to work with him and she worries that if she comes in people will stop coming, but he’s not worried, people were eager to consult with her back at Jishi tang. Then, she says that he should  take care of the girls and she takes care of the boys so everyone’s happy. Then he says, everyone except me hahaha. Sorry, I am not sharing my wife with anyone else.

So an epidemic diseases starts to kill people in town, even one of the doctors catches it. There’s no medicine able to heal it. Jishi tang says they have it, but it’s really expensive. Okay. So basically, what is probably happening is that frog dude poisoned the well with is demon poison. And he’s the only one to be able to cure it. And with that he’s going to make money for Ruyi and a name for himself.

Most people can’t afford the medicine, but Xu Xian didn’t know and is surprised to that some people are not going when he learns they really have the medicine for it. He is really surprised to see that Ruyi would allow something like that so he decides to go and convince her to sell the medicine at a reasonable price. She won’t budge a notch, unless he gets rid of Suzhen. That girl. She’s making it harder and harder for me to at least pity her. I mean, she didn’t have mom and her dad spoiled her because he felt bad for her about that, plus he was a man that lover money. But wow. You’re willing to let a whole town die just to break a couple because it happens you like the husband? I am sorry. That’s asking a little bit too much from me.

NO. WHAT? I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THAT. That ugly frog dude. He poisoned Xu Xian. Wow. Suzhen, when the little boy’s mom was sick, you knew right away it was the poison from a demon, why can’t you feel it now? She’s going to ask Ruyi for the medicine now... of course she’s going to try and tear them apart TT

Ok. She redeemed herself a little bit in my eyes. She is just heartbroken. As soon as Ruyi hears that Xu Xian is sick, she gives all the medicine that is left to Suzhen. Suzhen thanks her and she’s wondering to herself, since when as it come to a point that between her and Xu Xian, they should be thanking each other. Just to put into context, in Chinese culture saying thank you shows that you are not that close with somebody, like you have to be moderate with how you say it if you are close to each other? And especially between family members. Even though Xu Xian doesn’t think of Ruyi in that special way, they grew up together like brother and sister, that Suzhen would thank her like that excludes Ruyi from Xu Xian’s family somehow. Not in a mean way, it’s just like.. a feeling. It’s complicated to explain. But basically, Ruyi and Xu Xian are drifting away from each another and that bond that they shared might be broken forever.

Suzhen rushes back home to feed Xu Xian with the medicine. And the first thing I am thinking is: did she even check what’s in it? Nobody knows where that Wang Lingdao comes from, I wouldn’t want to feed my husband something bad. Well, I don’t understand a thing about medicine, but if I did, I would check thoroughly. And I bet she didn’t check because... IT’S DEMON’S POISON! And I know she can recognize that. Or maybe it worked with Qing Er because they are both snakes? I hope it’s that, because otherwise, I’m starting to think it doesn’t make sens AT ALL.

Xu Xian is saved. And he’s so smart. Excellent, Suzhen isn’t too dumb. She didn’t know what was inside the medicine so she didn’t want to give him too much. Xu Xian takes a look at what’s left and is thinking it’s impossible for medicine to act so fast. It looks more like... anti-poison. That’s what I have been saying since the beginning. He notices that it’s probably not made with herbs, but rather with stones? Like, boiling the stones? It’s probably something more complicated than that, but as I said already many times I know nothing about medicine, and especially Chinese medicine and for all that I know, they might just say whatever and any doctors watching this would be pointing everything that is wrong. But I feel they keep it very general and don’t really go into detail about the diseases.

Now that Xu Xian determined that it’s poison, I hope Suzhen finally notice that there’s a demon involved. Xu Xian is also wondering, if it’s poisoning, how come Jishi tang happens to have the antidote. It’s a little bit too much just to be a coincidence, right?

Suzhen decides to investigate and she follows Wang Daoling. With Qing Er, she notices that he put something in the well. Oh finally. Since she doesn’t have her core anymore, that’s why she can’t see his real form. And Qing Er is too young to have that ability yet. Jing Song, that would be the perfect moment for you to come out and redeem yourself. And I kind of miss you, so come back soon.
