Be With You Episode 6 Recap
> Be With You Recap
The ruffians attempted to throw feces at night, but Yan Sifang set up a trap and captured them along with the feces. He turned them over to the local authorities, but the ruffians accused him, Meng Sanxi, and Ye Wuzhi of kidnapping them while they were soliciting prostitutes. Li, the constable, was aware of the ruffians' misdeeds but lacked evidence to arrest them. He decided to mediate and reconcile the two sides. When the ruffians demanded twenty taels, Dai Menghui suddenly intervened and cut the ropes binding them to the accusation of kidnapping. This made reconciliation possible, and the ruffians agreed.
Failing with one plan, the ruffians devised another. They deliberately blocked the entrance to the "Wuming Grocery Store," preventing customers from entering. Meng Sanxi and Yan Sifang knew that if Ye Wuzhi found out about this, it would likely lead to a conflict. They went to confront the ruffians to resolve the issue. Meng Sanxi and Yan Sifang were unaware of each other's abilities and mistakenly believed that the other was a formidable opponent. To their surprise, they were both overpowered by the ruffians and suffered a severe beating. They initially planned to report the incident to the authorities using their injuries, but the ruffians were even more ruthless and turned on each other, preventing both Meng Sanxi and Yan Sifang from pursuing that path. When Ye Wuzhi returned and saw their injuries, she decided to seek justice for them.
Before Ye Wuzhi arrived, the ruffians had been dealt with by Meng Sanxi and those who wanted to protect the store's reputation. Ye Wuzhi, despite her limited martial skills, managed to handle the ruffians effectively. However, this led to the ruffians reporting her to the authorities. She was quickly arrested and faced a choice: pay a fine or spend three years in prison. Meng Sanxi and Yan Sifang, lacking the necessary funds, had no choice but to sell all the store's goods at a fifty percent discount to Ying Baichi to secure Ye Wuzhi's release.
Back at the store, Ye Wuzhi felt guilty as she looked at the empty counter, wondering about her future livelihood. Meng Sanxi suggested joining the ruffians, as it would be a quick way to make money without any initial investment. Yan Sifang was tempted, but they needed to involve Ye Wuzhi, who refused to engage in criminal activities. Instead, she sold her sword to raise the money needed to repay Meng Sanxi and Yan Sifang ten taels each. She then left, warning them not to do anything shameful.
Meng Sanxi later realized how Ye Wuzhi had raised the money and was touched by her honesty. They initially considered trying to take advantage of her kindness, but her straightforwardness made them change their minds. When they attempted to leave for a meal, they found themselves locked in. Their feelings of gratitude quickly faded, and they realized their hunger and need for the restroom. They eventually thought of using Yan Sifang's cliff-jumping equipment to escape, but it was too late. Ye Wuzhi returned with food and money, rescuing them from their predicament.
The trio noticed that only gambling dens and brothels remained open at night. Given Ye Wuzhi's good looks, they suspected something unpleasant might happen to her. They hurried to the gambling den and found Ye Wuzhi gambling and intoxicated. They intervened to protect her, but the owner of the gambling den threatened them. Meng Sanxi pretended to be injured and threatened to report the incident to the authorities, which forced the owner to let them leave with Ye Wuzhi.
