Episode 13 subs:
Translations-1st half: jessie86 + fufu
Translations-2nd half: sweetie
Timing: thaominh + sweetie
QC/Spot Translations: fufu

oh my, I just realized that I was using "Nil Nil Machi" in the previous episode(s) instead of "Niu Niu Machi"...hahahahaha...hope that doesn't throw anyone off Blink

Sorry...things like this was bound to happen to me...I'm a forgetful person...hahahha

Translation notes:
line 880 | time 45:18 | "飢渴慕義的人有福了,因為他們必得飽足"--"Those who are kind-hearted will have happiness because they will always be satisfied."
This is a verse from the bible (Chinese), which I'm NOT familiar with (sorry, I'm not Christian). After a little googling, I found that the first part means those who hunger only for sacred reasons will be happy. So the last part says, if you don't hunger for food and water, you will always be satisfy. You only need to be fed food and water if you hunger for these things. Thus, the under meaning is that if you are kind-hearted and have empathy for others, you will have happiness. In this episode, Channel is obviously referring to herself. Wow...this one was tough, so I hope I got this one right Unsure

line 890 | time 45:43 | "衣錦榮鄉"--"succeed and return with honor"
The formal proverb to use actually is, "衣錦 [還] 鄉". In the literal sense, it means "return home in prestigious clothes". This proverb originated from after the Chou Dynasty and prior to the Han Dynasty. Xiang Yu (項羽) was a great hero in Chinese history who faught the Chou Dynasty because of its brutality to its people. After his success in battles, he crowned himself the King of the west and continue to fight to become the King of the entire nation. After he won the battle to take control of the previous capital city, Xian Yang (咸陽), he decided to change the capital city to his home town, Peng Cheng (彭城). A small soldier insists that he keep Xian Yang as the capital city because of its locational advantage, but Xiang Yu refused. Xiang Yu believes that one must return to his/her own home town after gaining success to be honored by the people (hence, the proverb). He believed that if he didn't return to his home town, he would be walking in his prestigious clothes at NIGHT (衣錦夜行), which means that no matter how successful you are, no one will notice it. In the end, Xiang Yu called his home town, the city of Peng, as the capital city and eventually loses his throne to Liu Bang (劉邦) and the Han Dynasty was established...blah blah blah....

SO (after that long blurb)...Xiang Xiang auntie uses this proverb to describe Xiao Bei's honorary return to home. Her success at Neo-Image is finally recognized by local neighbors after she returns home (and also from the TV news reports).
