Translator notes:

1. The buds of the plum blossom…Love has moved away what could be left: Poem by Jiang Zong called poem of resentment. It’s about a woman who has fallen out of favor from the Emperor who has moved on to love another woman (women).
2. Should be as long as that bamboo stick….fishtail: This is two lines from the poem mentioned before (in ep 15) White haired lament. These two lines are saying love should be as long as a bamboo stick and should be as adorable as fish. It’s quite obvious that the name of her shop is related to Xiao fish
3. The weather grows cold….hangs by the riverside: This is another poem by Jiang Zong called Valentine. Again it talks about being abandoned by a lover on the chinese valentine’s day (7th day of the 7th month).
4. The fan used…. surpass the sorrow I feel now: Final part of the poem of resentment by Jiang Zong
5. Slap your mouth: Done when someone says something ominous during a spell of bad luck. Kind of a way to ward off bad luck.
