Hurry and get ready!

Miss Xing, you're not made up yet?

Come...

Come... sit down here.

I forgot to congratulate you.

You've weathered adversity

as husband and wife.

You're faithful and true.

Prepare for the program to begin.

Sit and wait for me here.

Isn't that Miss Shang Shuihua,

the former Shaoxing Opera queen?

You really want to marry Xing Yuehong?

Yes, I want to reform.

This I have to see.

You won't let her sing anymore?

I mean what I say.

You're slick. You are never honest with me.

If you don't let Yuehong sing...

Chunhua will make all the money.

There will be no teamwork.

Aren't you deliberately cutting off

Chunhua from the stage?

But it will get her off her high horse,

and that's good.

On stage we have the same fate as

Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai.

But off stage we must part company.

Little Xiang, you said we are sisters.

Can I let us grow apart?

What are you saying?

Master, I haven't taken good care

of Yuehong.

What's the matter with Yuehong?

Yuehong, do you really love Manager Tang?

Why are you asking?

I'm already his.

Miss Chunhua, Shuihua has hanged

herself behind the stage! She's dead!

Look, Shuihua's suicide note.

"I slaved to make Tang

rich. He's a monster!"

"He deserves to die"

You can't use this note

to blame me.

Chunhua, even an upright official

finds it hard to settle a family quarrel.

You cannot blame Manager Tang for this.

She wanted to die.

I didn't mistreat her.

You didn't mistreat her!

Sister Shuihua earned lots of money for you.

You drank her blood,

exploited her body.

She sought death because of you.

He drove Sister Shuihua to her death.

For a short while, Shuihua took

things to heart...

and took the road to ruin.

I am also deeply grieved by her death.

You shouldn't hold me responsible

and make groundless accusations.

I must protect the living...

and avenge the dead.

I should do it all!

Return Shuihua's life to me!

Shuihua's is a tragic death.

What woman wouldn't be upset over this?

But a person can't be restored to life.

OK. Let me suggest something.

Manager Tang must arrange a good funeral.

She's right. A good funeral is important.

The dead must be buried properly.

She must be buried in a cedar coffin.

A cedar coffin!

I don't know if I could afford one

when I die.

Manager Tang, evil deeds

are hard to understand...

and good words are hard to find.

Although Shuihua killed herself,

she was a member of your theatre.

I will of course pay for her funeral.

He won't admit it.

Let's first bury the dead...

and settle our disputes later.

Good. I'll take care of the funeral

arrangements.

Come. Everyone pay attention.

The dead person must have five dresses
