Noble and unsullied

Matchless merit

A good omen for military operations

An inexperienced youth

Talk rapidly

not to know chalk from cheese

grasp the essential

run away very quickly

maid acting as mistress of the house--blindly copying others and making oneself look crude and unlearned

Avoid fire

have evil intentions

to become an immortal(to rise abruptly in the world)

outstanding service

full-scale construction is under way

humble expression for generous donation

Ming Ming
