There are three signs, he said.
:31:03
First, he has drawn a spot
on Tyan-yu's back.

:31:06
And this spot will eat away
Tyan-yu's flesh.

:31:09
Just as it ate away
our ancestor's face.

:31:14
The same mole I had seen
during all those nights...

:31:18
of sleeping just like
brother and sister.

:31:22
Next, our ancestor
touched my mouth.

:31:26
Our ancestor said...
:31:27
if I don't leave this marriage...
:31:29
all my teeth will fall out.
:31:32
But how could I leave
this family I love so much?

:31:36
I live and die
for this family.

:31:44
The open spot in my mouth...
:31:46
where a rotted tooth
fell out four years ago.

:31:51
Our ancestor also said
this girl here...

:31:54
is Tyan-yu's
true spiritual wife...

:31:56
already growing his son!
:32:00
It's true!
:32:01
To prove it our ancestor
planted the seed in her womb.

:32:07
Already ripe in one day.
:32:09
Ah Ping!
Come over here!

:32:12
Come over here!
:32:25
If you don't believe me,
ask the matchmaker.

:32:28
I told them the matchmaker
had made the wrong match...

:32:31
on purpose,
just for money.

:32:47
Matchmaker, how could you?
:32:51
How could you?
:32:53
Well...
:32:55
mistakes happen in Heaven.
:32:57
The hell with this!
:32:59
Get out!
