Hungry Ghost Ritual

---

Grandma, I want eggs

Don't touch it

What a glutton of a child,

who gave you permission to touch it

Kids don't know better, please don't take offense

Don't throw, let's go home

Quick

Let's go

Hungry ghost ritual

All the folks from around

here came over to our place

Yin Cao is really something

Are you hungry?

Want me to buy some food for you?

It's okay

I can't do somersaults with a full stomach

Have some tea, troupe master

Alright, Yin Cao

- I should get going now

- Okay

"Never brand women as weaklings"

"Look at me"

"How I shine"

"I am a hero"

"Fear not even a thousand men"

"For one's courage soar with one's ability"

"Yet to meet a match in a hundred miles"

"The heroine of Shandong shall be revered"

"Moved not by riches but ambitions"

"Her name echoes in all corners of the land"

"With ambitions equally as vast"

"The lady warrior is the embodiment of war"

"Fearful of neither storms or waves"

"They say love is a match made by the Heavens"

"So why worry too much"

"Who could bear the sin of

disobeying a father's command"

"Not when the enemy is at our doorstep"

"We need to fight"

Jing Jing

Can you please focus on the stage?

"Fear not the enemy's impetus.

For with my Dragon Slaying Staff"

"The enemy will be vanquished"

"Fighting for the one I'm loyal to..."

Hold on

You've come back finally. That's great

ls my room, still around?

Of course it is

Nothing in there has been moved

You should've notified us of

your return in advance

Is that your brother, Jing Jing?

He's not fit to be

I'm sure he couldn't make it out there

That's why he came back

Useless piece of crap

- I'm going to my room

- Okay

it's okay, I got this

Go get some rest

Uncle Qun

Put some good food on the table tonight

I'm in the mood for a feast

Got it, troupe master

I'll go get more supplies

Good

Time to eat

Jing Jing

Have you asked your brother to join us?

I did, but you can go again if you want to

And he's not really my brother

We don't share the same mother

Zong Hua, come sit here

Here's your seat

Thanks to you, we're having a feast today

There's even duck and fish

Are you done talking?

Take a look at yourself first

You're not good with your studies,

and yet refuse to act

That's right, I'm not an academic person

Unlike some people who operates a publishing firm

Don't bother her, Zong Hua

Have a chat with me after dinner

Tell me all the things

that you've done in the past decade or so outside

Is that necessary? Of course he couldn't make it

I remember someone said before

That he won't come back if he didn't strike gold

Don't worry

I won't take even a penny from the inheritance

I'm done eating, I'm going out for a walk

Zong Hua

You should stop eating too

You are already said so much, go back to your room

Zhi Kwan

We broke up because we're incompatible

There's nothing to do with

our publishing business getting swindled

if you're able to recoup those money, keep it

Thanks for looking after me all the while

Take care

Ling, pass me a bottle of medicine oil

Yes, Yin Cao

Leave us

How serious exactly is your injury?

I've seen the doctor, I can still hold up

Hold up? How?

From the day you sprained your leg

it's been one incident after another

Haven't you heard the voices

calling for your blood?

If we keep this up, I'll be broke soon

from all the compensation

We have a few more shows left

You tell me what should I do?

Sao Ling, this is your chance

Take her place from tomorrow night onward

Thank you, troupe master

Troupe master

We have but three shows left

Let me finish them, will you?

The stage is mine

Save your breath, it has been decided

Get someone to help her back for some rest

Thank what?

Did anyone give you the permission to speak?

You're not even fit to carry my shoes

Hey, Gwong Zai

Zong Hua's here

Hey, Zong Hua, aren't you in mainland China?

You still remember my number. Where are you now?

I came back yesterday

Do you have time tonight?

Let's have some drinks together

Sure, you've made it big in China right?

You wouldn't have came back if you didn't

Nah I screwed up big time

That's why I'm calling you,

to see if you have any leads for me

You're kidding right, Zong Hua?

Your father is the troupe master of

a big opera troupe

And you need my help?

His achievements have got nothing to do with me

Sorry, my wife's calling

Let's talk some other time

Hello

Hello, it's me, Zong Hua

Hi, is that Zhi Kwan?

Can we

Can you come back? Let's talk

Have you seen them?

What?

Those two kids just now

"Our love for poetry. Leaves us

singing together forever"

"Just like our undivided love"

Hold on, Master

Ah Man

This verse shouldn't be like this,

nor should the previous one

I've taught you many times, look at me

Master, please

"My heart races with your love"

Like that

Let's do that again

"My heart races with your love"

"You and I, in love forever"

"Our love for poetry.

Leaves us singing together forever"

"Just like our undivided love"

This woke you up?

No

Let's take five

Since we're all here today

Let me introduce some of them to you

Hold it right there

You little scoundrel

You're out with bad companions again, aren't you?

Coming home at this hour

My friends are not bad companions

They are all from the upper class

it's just that you choose to look down on them

Go easy on her, troupe master
