A great story, a great series, Sun Li is my favorite actress.
A great series, it has everything it needs to keep you hooked: a great story, humor, comedy, sadness, and suspense.Sun Li is simply brilliant, a great actress, a queen with the magic to captivate the audience.
The song Sun Li performs at the beginning of each episode is captivating.
I've watched the series three times and always keep it among my favorites to rewatch.

70+ episodes worth watching
When I first found this drama I didnt want to watch because it has 70+ episodes! Not until i stumbled upon some clips and i got hooked by Sun Li's lively character and how fresh it is watching such a kind mother-in-law for a change. The wanderer dad is also such a funny character, "Anything that has walls surrounding is not a home" lolOverall story has such smooth flow although most of the times FL just really has good luck to have avoided poison and rescued from danger all the time. I still don't get how she could it was claimed she made great fortune from the cotton business with small capital, she still had to pay the rest of the cost from the revenue.
Anyway, all in all I like watching the drama because of the strong characters. Wu Pin maybe the perfect husband but it is fun to watch the interactions between Zhou Ying and Shen Xing Yi, they kinda funny couple. I also like the development of Zhou Ying from a street fraud to a family matriach.
The drama itself is not flawless of course. For one it is very disappointing that Xing Yi died to protect Wu family, forsaking his new found mission in life as a revolutionalist. It's such a twist, he was solely interested in making Zhou Ying half of the drama then when she fell for him he's got a conflict of interest but in the end he still died for her sake.

Great all over
Superb acting, wonderful music, great story.At one point I started wondering if this was a depiction of past times, or a commentary on current business practices and morals (or lack there of).
Or simply proof that there really is nothing new under the sun.
Not when it comes to human nature.

Murder case investigations
This series is based on different murder cases and the investigation of each to find the truth. The actors are well known and do a perform well. I didn't finish the series only because this is not my type of entertainment. It is well done and can be well appreciated for others who enjoy plots with intrigue and investigation into "who did it".Was this review helpful to you?
