The Story of Ming Lan Episode 40 Reactions
Her grandma words of wisdom. Just amazing. Ouuu his third brother also with him. Whoaa rulan's husband was so supportive and cool. Whoaaa headdress was so big omg. She deserves to be married in grand manner. Sjsksks changbai. Idk abt he hongwen, I don't trust that cousin of him, he was so thoughtful and sweet, he deserves good wife. His subordinates skskskks. Whoaa ting ye really amazing that he asked for his daughter opinion to marry minglan. Luckily both of them knew each other since rong'er was a child. That deceitful lady qin started her scheme tried poisoning her against minglan. I really like their interaction together. So sweet. He noticed and asked about how heavy the headdress. I mean, it was leaving few indents on her forehead. So it was a bit concerning. Sweet so sweet

Spoilers AheadThis episode is fantastic and not a great deal happens other than they get married and consummate. One of the most interesting parts is when she leaves her family--both Big Madame and her father seem genuinely happy for her. Then, that night, GTY rushes out and in an unconventional display of husbandly affection, picks up choice meals, perhaps knowing the wife who has been in the bridal chamber is waiting and hungry. While she eats he takes the time, before they go to the bed, to be direct with her. He makes it clear to her that his legitimate son, whom he seeks, will not outrank a legitimate son. But he will focus on finding him. Ming Lan makes it clear that it would scare her if he didn't care and that she will not allow her stepchildren to suffer as she did. He then shows her all his assets (this guy is ridiculously wealthy) and she shows him her, it is so meager compared to him, but its important that she is honest. He tells her that other than her, Shitou, and nanny, he doesn't trust anyone in this house. I think he really cherishes her, and Ming Lan admits she is afraid she may get used to this. He also swears before god to not disappoint her.
