Big brother is wise.

You want to kill Brother Song?

It would be better if you didn't know.

Be he is your brother.

Please think again.

Song Hu wants to take me down.

Do you have any other solution?

Spit it out now, it's not too late.

Don't ask me, I don't know.

I only have just one request...

Don't let your daughter see it.

Okay?

A mouse?

Brother, once we've stolen the rice,

how about noodles next?

Could you not call it "stealing"?

We are "taking".

Then how much are we "taking"?

A bag we'll take,

two bags we'll also take.

Take however much we can.

Jinghai.

As masked avengers, we should leave a calling card.

What should we use?

How about your shiny head?

You!

Rice.

Son, we have rice.

Brother, its rice!

The gods have opened their eyes.

Thank you! Thank you!

There's rice!

Wait until I knock on the table...

You take our daughter to the toilets.

Papa, we are here to eat.

Why do we need to go to the toilets?

Listen to Papa now...

And Papa will listen to you one day.

Don't argue.

Please.

This way.

Big Brother.

Sister.

Brother, you're late again.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Say hello.

Hello, Uncle Song.

Hello, Auntie.

Wanshan, greet Uncle and Auntie.

Uncle.

Auntie.

Well behaved.

Really well behaved.

Sirs.

The Song family's Young Master

was born in the year of the rabbit.

The Hou family's Little Miss

was born in the year of the sheep.

A great match.

Moreover, their dates of birth

are very auspicious.

Their five elements complimenting,

fortunes will equally flourish.

A match made in heaven.

I dare say, this match will bring

wealth and fortune to both families.

Together till their hair turns grey.

Thereafter, a hundred children and

a thousand grandchildren.

Great, great.

Actually, as Buddhists we talk about

fate being the cause of all things.

Without fate, things do not converge.

With fate, I believe...

They would have come together sooner or later.

So what are we waiting for?

Quick, quick, quick!

On with the wedding invitations!

What are you so anxious about?

How can I not be?

If I were to lose such a

wonderful daughter-in-law...

Where would I find another one?

Sirs, please exchange invitations.

This betrothal is finalised.

Agreed!

Here.

Congratulations! Congratulations!

Big brother,

I'll go settle the marriage rites.

Brother, now that we are one family...

I can speak my mind.

Speak.

How are we going to split Dengfeng City...

Between the two of us?

You tell me.

Didn't we already settle this?

One man, one half.

It's all yours.

From today on, Dengfeng City

is not split between you and me.

Only one person will have all the say.

This is the most peaceful solution.
