The truth about Ming Lan's mother's death comes to light but it's clear Sheng Hong still has feelings for Madam Lin. Ting Ye comes in time to defend Ming Lan, much to Grandmother Sheng's delight.

I said it!! Molan serve you right! You poked…

I said it!! Molan serve you right! You poked that bear and now you bear the consequences of its claws!! Glad grandma approved of ting ye coming to the rescue. He was so sweet. Their conversation in the carriage T^T. Lol at Liang Han... I guess he was disappointed that she clinged on him to be the main madam and not for the sake of loving him. He was so ridiculous coz the heck was that, love and then still enjoy the concubines given? Idk. "How vicious are you and your mother?" take that molan! Tbh I wldn't be too happy about this coz molan probably wanted to pay back for ruining her. Seed of doubt had been planted in Liang Jan heart that's for sure. AGH I DON'T LIKE THIS. Hopefully that new installment wld be uninstall quickly after this. Ming Lan ofc was forced to accept this. Ughhsshdjeej this sis so frustrating. Ting Ye want minglan to show that she was possessive of him while minglan idk was forced to accept that creature myb she really didn't like him that much. Oh my heartburn. Oh my heart stupid shitou and foolish xitao omg.

The Crimes of Concubine Lin Resurface.......

Spoilers ahead
1)The old madame is notified that a quarrel has broken out between Sixth Miss and Master because of Mo'er wanting her mother's memorial tablet brought in. Ming Lan, meanwhile then tells Mo'er that they could have lived harmoniously had she not tried to do this. She says Mo'er has brought whatever happens on herself. Ming Lan confronts her father--you can't even visit my mother's memorial tablet. So she reminds him: Concubine Lin indulged her daughter to have an affair, have you forgotten. Big Madame and Rulan are silent (because they know that only Ming Lan has the guts to do this, and the power). Gu Ting Ye pops in (HE IS ALWAYS THERE WHEN SHE NEEDS HIM!!). He clearly supports Ming Lan and says Concubine Lin should not even appear in the family genealogy..

2)Gu Ting Ye is clear: for the sake of the Sheng family rep Ming Lan has endured everything. However their second son is about to take the imperial exam. Witnessing him defend her, Old Madame decides to go back

3)Afterwards, Gu Ting Ye tries to coax her with sweets but it doesn't work. He finally says that he has never seen her fierce like this and tells her that he loves that about her. He explains, you are calm because you don't care about most matters but there are these instances (like where her mother is concerned) that she gets fiercely fired up...

4)For the first time, Ming Lan tells someone about how her mother would not let her call her mother. He tells her that her mother's memorial tablet will immediately be moved into their family hall, because she is his precious mother in law (AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW)(Jealous of how perfect these two are).

5)Mo'er is unaware of the problem she has. Her husband is angry. She focuses on criticizing the Gu family, until finally he tells her to shut up. He directly asks her if this was all a scheme (now viewers, if she admitted the truth, she may have had a chance.) but she is adamant it was not arranged, and he clearly does not believe her. He seems placated, but she doesn't seem to see the future: if he realizes she made a fool of him, she is in some deep trouble

6)A concubine is finally taken in because they have no choice. The Evil MIL is hoping that this will incite the happy couple to fight. Elsewhere, the husband of Mo'er questions her servants. He wants to know why she did not bring any lifelong servants as part of her dowry. He promises to dote on her if she tells him (sexually?) He promises this servant girl wealth and stability. the servant girl admits they were beaten to death (her lifelong servants) for colluding with Concubine Lin so that they could meet him in secret, and then spread the word so that he would be forced to marry her..

7)The Marquis spends the night with the new concubine as a courtesy but he does not sleep with her at all. He is pretty angry that Ming Lan is not appearing jealous, I think. Ming Lan explains to her personal servant that she basically is realistic and knows that the marquis may fall for someone else in the future (realistically this is the norm). Meanwhile it seems like Shitou (the personal servant to Gu) and Xiaotao are falling in love.
