Nim Fu wins much money at gambling but his luck seems to run out when Dai Chuen joins them. Nim Fu ends up losing everything. Fortunately, Ah Yuet gives him 5 taels and he ends up winning money as well as the breach between the two ends.

Ah Yuet buys roasted duck to give to Yuk Lou but Ah Yat eats some of it, not knowing who it was for. Yuk Lou savagely curses Ah Yat, saying that she'll never get married.

Nim Chi and the others have a headache over choosing the men for Ah Yat to meet. The reason why was because Ah Yat is extremely picky.

They think up a plan for Ah Yat to 'accidentally bump' into Mr Chui, one of the choices, at Dung Mat Yuen. Ah Yat sees that Mr Chui had problems with his speech and although the group all complemented him, she secretly tells him to 'give up' on any hopes of marrying her. Nim Chi is worried that Ah Yat would be an old spinster and Yuk Lou comments that she'll never find a husband.

Ying Gei's cousin brings an invite for a happy occasion. She says that although she wasn't pretty, the prediction by Bun Yat Sin that she will get married before age 34 came true. Ah Yat seemed to scold her for being superstitious, she secretly went to see Bun Yat Sin herself to ask about the marriage hopes for a 'close relative'.

Lui Pau and the poorest scholar in Chi Lik Gung Jan, Gou Yi Hong, each accuse the other of stealing their treasured white tiger skin and they go to Ah Nin's court. He asks both of them their stories and get two different answers.

Yi Hong says that the tiger skin was his father's family heirloom so no matter how poor he got, he would never pawn it away. Ah Nin decides to end the questioning so he can search for evidence to solve this latest case.

Ah Nin and Ah Biu personally visit Yi Hong's home to look for evidence. They discover that he truly was very poor. Ah Nin first looks at the place where Yi Hong keeps his tiger skin then goes to Lui Pau's medicine shop to look there. A lady asks buys some poison to kill some white ants from Lui Pau and giving Ah Nin a valuable clue in the case. (This isn't in the summary: The case was solved by Ah Nin, who realized that Lui Pau was lying about the white tiger skin belonging to him. He proves this by showing that the skin in question had white ants all over it. Lui Pau owns a medicine shop that sells poison that would kill those ants. If he owned that tiger skin, it would be ant free, like the other skins he owns. Yi Hong's place, meanwhile, has white ants running amuck in the spot where he said he kept the skin)

During the last two days, Ah Yat only slept and ate. She became fatter and was teased by Ah Nin and Ah Yuet. Bun Yat Sin's prediction came true once again when Ah Yat's brothers had an argument while playing chess and Ah Yat gets hit by one of the pieces. That piece happened to be one of them that were marked 'horse'. Ah Yat secretly sighs, thinking that Bun Yat Sin's predictions were all coming true and is very worried about her future.

Yi Hong looks at the messed up painting and decides to make use of the marked up spots and made a new drawing out of it. Ah Nin sees the drawing and complements Yi Hong on his abilities then buys it from him.

Dung Mat Yuen's rival Dai Yan Lau has a sale and Nim Fu is very happy. Nim Chi scolds him and says that he should be more modest. Because there was a shortage of workers at Dung Mat Yuen, Nim Fu secretly goes looking for more workers.

Dai Chuen and Ching Bo bump into each other on the street and have an argument. Dai Chuen was yelling loudly while Ching Bo seemed pitiful. Nim Fu sees this and helps Ching Bo argue with Dai Chuen, who felt a bit guilty and leaves. Ching Bo talks about how his manager was cruel to him while picking up the broken eggs. Nim Fu has an idea and asks Ching Bo to work at Dung Mat Yuen. (The summary originally says that he asked him to work at Dai Yan Lau, which didn't make any sense. Why would he ask him to work at the rival restaurant?) Ching Bo is a hard worker and is even better than Ah *** .

Ah Yat arrives at Ah Tai's pork shop to eat some boiled dumplings. She accidentally places Yi Hong's artwork into the fire (he's there to get some pork oil) and he immediately goes to attempt to save them. In the end, Ah Yat leaves without apologizing and Yi Hong feels very bad.

Chun Mui prepares some sesame shortening for Ah Biu and meets a sex fiend while bringing it to him. Ah Biu arrives and hits the fiend until he hardly looked human.

He asks Chun Mui to fix some of his old clothes and give them to Yi Hong, who had only one pair. Ah Sau helps Chun Mui with the clothes and his sewing is excellent. Chun Mui complements him, saying that he'll surely have a happy marriage. Unfortunately, she didn't know that he was an eunuch!

Nim Fu hides in the noodle room, making noodles. Ching Bo is there, carefully helping him.

Ying Gei eats the whole bowl of noodles without a second thought. To express his gratitude, Nim Fu picks a random flower and gives it to her. Ying Gei starts to feel her face begin to sprout red marks and thought that it was caused by bees stinging her. Nim Fu and Ying Gei go to their room to hide but Yuk Lou saw the whole thing.

Nim Fu goes to the kitchen to order the people around. Nim Chi tells him to go buy ingredients to send him away while Ching Bo overhears their conversation. While at Hoi Mei Pou, Nim Fu meets with the owner of Dai Yan Lau, Mr. Dai. Nim Fu comments that Mr. Dai was buying expensive ingredients when he had no patrons and how easy it is for him to lose money. Mr. Dai asks him to work at Dai Yan Lau and Nim Fu refuses.

When Nim Fu went to the restroom, he accidentally discovers his noodles thrown into the bucket. He angrily says that Nim Chi and the others are insulting him. Nim Chi suggests that he should make the noodles in front of the patrons but Nim Fu refuses to do so. The two end up arguing and falling out of favor with each other.
