Nim Fu hears everyone discussing the ten greatest punishments that are used to force suspects to confess their crimes and feels afraid. He decides to look inside the silk pouch Nim Chi received from Bun Yat Sin. But after looking at it, he quickly leaves the house.

Ying Gei takes out her personal items and gives it to Nim Fu to use as money while he finds a reason to make Ying Gei stay behind after he leaves. She agrees, putting his interests above her own and even uses stupid methods to stall the rest of the family from finding Nim Fu. The group gets angry.

Nim Chi later searches for Nim Fu, based on the directions Ying Gei supplied. He was hiding in an abandoned temple and fearfully sees her holding a sword that was stained with blood. Nim Chi sees his shadow and thrusts the sword towards him. (Not in summary: Nim Fu, seeing this, starts to run away but trips. She manages to catch up to him and uses the sword to get a snake that was nearby. Nim Chi then explains that she was after the snake, not him) Nim Fu finally agrees to face the reality about what will happen to him.

Ah Nin points out that the evidence in the case wasn't enough to convict anyone and that he would have to put Nim Fu in prison first. Nim Chi asks to take Nim Fu's place because she feels that she is the one responsible for the restaurant. Ah Nin, feeling helpless, does as she requests and gets scolded by the family for being unfilial.

Yuk Lou, Ah Yat and Nim Fu are arguing on why they should be the head of the family but when they see someone arriving to ask for money, the three decide to let Ah Nin be the leader.

Ah Nin goes to the kitchen to give Ching Bo his work money and accidentally scares him. Ah Nin, seeing this, tells Yu Lung and Ma Fu to check for clues in the kitchen and he leaves.

Just when Nim Fu is about to leave, Nim Chi suddenly starts to choke and dies. The family is very saddened and Ah Yuet nearly faints several times in the Ling Tong. (place where the body of the deceased is kept) After everyone leaves, someone arrives to ask for forgiveness. Suddenly a strange gust of wind begins and a ghostly apparition appears, intent on searching for someone to kill. (the summary doesn't include this: the person who came to ask forgiveness is Ching Bo, who thought that he was responsible for Nim Chi's death. He was the one who was behind the poisonings, since he was hired by Mr. Dai of the rival restaurant to destroy the credibility of Dung Mat Yuen. Nim Chi is the ghostly apparition. She pretends to die from the noodles in order to get the person who was truly responsible to appear and confess to his crimes)

Actually, everything began from Bun Yat Sin's silk pouch. (Not in summary: Nim Chi sees the character 'death' in the note and realizes that the underlying message was for her to pretend to die in order to solve the case) Ah Nin analyzes the flaws that the suspect had revealed. Nim Chi goes home and appears just when the family was asking Yan Sou for lifestyle fees. They are completely frightened by her and Nim Chi decides to take advantage of it to ask them if they were hiding secrets from her. They tell her of their inner secrets and she then reveals that she was still alive. Ah Yuet arrives and faints from fright after seeing Nim Chi.

Dung Mat Yuen's business returns to normal but Nim Fu refuses to sell his noodles to the people who taunted him before. Nim Chi arrives, her hair in a mess and nearly scares Ah Yuet to death. She discovers that his jade ring was missing and asks Yan Sou to go with her to buy another one.

Nim Chi wants Nim Fu to bring gifts and apologize to the Sek family. Nim Fu tries to make up excuses to avoid going and Chun Mui asks to help him go. Nim Chi asks Ah Fook and Ah Luk to help him and Chun Mui is very disappointed.

In her room, Ah Yat nearly gets scratched by a (the character isn't there in the summary but I think it was a spider or some insect) but luckily the painting of a monkey saves her from that fate. (the painting was drawn by Gou Yi Hong and bought back to the family by Ah Nin. Ah Yat immediately takes the painting and keeps it in her room, but doesn't know who drew it)

Nim Chi takes Ah Yat and the others to thank Bun Yat Sin. He exposes the fact that Ah Yat once went to see him to ask about marriage and she gets angry. Bun Yat Sin adds that an important clue to her future husband lay in the monkey painting she owns and gives her a silk pouch. Inside it was a piece of paper with the character for 'smile'. Ah Yat says that she doesn't believe any of it, but she secretly decides to smile more often. Yuk Lou exposes Ah Yat's intention to smile at the men on the street.

Ah Yat doesn't care when Yuk Lou wants Chun Mui and Ah Sau to help her buy watermelon and says that she wants them to go with her to a temple where many scholars go to pray for good luck. Ah Yat meets with Yi Hong there and Ah Sau recognizes the clothes he was wearing were the ones that Chun Mui had fixed. Ah Yat didn't know how to recite poetry with one of the scholars, so she asked Yi Hong for help.

Yi Hong accidentally falls to the group and coincidentally sees Ah Yat smiling at him. He thought she had smiled at him three times and started to fall in love with her.

Ah Yat arrived home very late and was scolded by Yuk Lou.

Ah Yuet vomits and Yuk Lou goes with Chun Mui to get a charm to help Ah Yuet early in the morning. She fights with Ah Mei to get the last charm but neither of them relents to the other. Chun Mui knows that Ah Mei wants the charm for her brother Ah Biu and tries to say something for Ah Mei but gets scolded by Yuk Lou. In the end, Yuk Lou uses money to buy another one and cruelly shreds the charm that Ah Mei was fighting for. Chun Mui feels very sorry.

Ah Yuet refuses to drink the water laced with the burned charm. Nim Chi teaches Yuk Lou to mix the water with soup, then add water and oil to hide the flavor. Ah Yuet says that the soup was too salty and refuses to drink anymore. Yuk Lou discovers that the soup was a bit runny and asks Chun Mui for an explanation. (Chun Mui had taken some of the soup for Ah Biu to use and added water as well as salt to make it seem like nothing was taken) Ah Sau didn't want to see Chun Mui get punished for this and said that he was responsible for the soup being too salty and runny.

Ah Sau knew the reason why Chun Mui stole some of the soup and agrees to help her bring the soup to her love interest. Ah Sau thought that her interest was Yi Hong and brought it to him. After drinking the soup, Yi Hong starts to think about Ah Yat. In the end, he uses cold water to calm himself down.

He writes a poem to send to Ah Yat, who treats him with cold words. Yi Hong feels a bit confused.

Chun Mui knows Ah Sau brought the soup to the wrong person and is even more worried about Ah Biu's condition. Ah Sau persuades her to secretly go to see Ah Biu and he nearly becomes a eunuch again in the process.
