if you don't love family and slice of life dramas, it's better stay away from this and don't ruin our fun
I don't know if this qualifies as "slice of life" but it is definitely a "family drama" with a sprawling ensemble cast. Lucky we got Soonsetra's awesome translation of the relationship chart to keep track of who is who ! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GiIrRsLagAA21RK?format=jpg&name=large
theory: so yang xian want 3rd sister as concubine but falling love with 5th sister, now i get the connection between…
It looks far fetched since he still has not taken a good look at 5th Miss, and I found it bizarre that she would take an interest to him after observing the conundrum from the top of the wall. That scene was quite theatrical, with buffoons and everything slapstick.
I still haven't started but is he very annoying and does the fl know how to deal with him?
Yang Xian didn't manage to force 3rd Miss into accepting a humbling role as concubine ; he got a taste of what the Tigress could do, and even was taken down a peg when he lost his position as a results of his attempt to bully, and was demoted by the young emperor. I thought it was somewhat bizarre that 5th Miss watching him over the wall could think he was someone she could like to see getting closer. We shall indeed have to wait to see what will happen
Yes, if there is a photo there is a character. Flashbacks only ? After all, there's also a photo of Mr Li, the deceased husband of Madame Li - but I doubt he will re-emerge with the family that travelled to Bianjing
i'm watching this drama for winwin and chen heyi. where is my heyi guy? will we see him more in next episodes
We have seen quite a lot already in 3rd and 4th episodes of Winwin (who plays the arrogant Yang Xian) and less of Chen Heyi who plays Du Yangxi "picked up (when?) by eldest daughter, widowed Shouhua.
He is not with anyone yet. But 5th Miss noticed him enough to set designs on him, when she looked over the wall and witnessed his defeat against Kangning.
I think the "in-laws" connection between the guys is actually talking about them being literal in-laws as their…
Besides, Chai An is still unmarried. I wonder how long it will take and who will be the first to have a wedding. Was it Shen Huizhao and Du Yangxi who were disguised as maids to take a look at the new girls when they had just arrived? And Yang Xian first appeared to check out the girl whose portrait the wind smacked into his hands ; but was it the portrait of Kangning or that of another sister ? Still, most characters are now easier to distinguish, despite we have to juggle with 10 + a mother, some maids a trusted servant. Plus an adopted daughter treated as a Cinderella, although I am not sure what was going on with that comb and her being snatched inside when she knocked at a door...
I have so many words about to tell you but I'd rather keep most of it to myself but I will tell you 4 things,…
Yes, she could not very well screw around to get back at him 😂 Maybe ask for a divorce, but at that time it was past-due-date goods to be in the market as widow or divorcee... Not the best deal. So trying to reform the childish and profligate spouse was the only solution, since her situation also made waves that could harm her impoverished sisters and mom.
interesting character from first 4 episodes: chai an, kang ning, yang xian, qiong nucharacters feels so cartoonish:…
young Fan Lianghan looks more childish than 5th Miss! Why did he pursue and marry Fuhui, if he is so timid and scared of his wife? Two years without offspring is long, so it is not surprising the parents wanted to get a concubine in. Qiongnü, the adopted daughter, looked like she was very close to Kangning and the probably dead and drowned Fan'er, twin of Kangning. The character relationship chart could have made the relationship clearer instead of putting a "?" (unless he didn't drown and will reappear later). 5th Miss already has set her eyes on the rogue who wanted to force Kangning to take a bad deal. What will she be up to?
Finished set up my tent! Excited for this one, especially LYX and WXY 😍😍
LYX ??? I had a blank moment since most read that abbreviation as "Luo Yunxi"! But yes, it can also read Lu Yuxiao ;) WXY is of course Wu Xuanyi (greetings to the yiyuan here !) Am also looking forward to watch "the Duke" again 😆 and discover some nice new (to me) faces 🤣
The pentagon one? I tried to enlarge it to see what could be done, but it's very complicated with my crude tools.…
neither do I -- it happens now and then on MDL : a programming bug, probably. For one drama, there was kind of an explanation: the discussions section was re routed to the one of a namesake Korean drama... I put a warning on top of my notes there that it was unrelated to that Korean drama, though I strongly doubt anyone was looking at that K drama discussion section any longer... I have not yet investigated whether my page here is linked to Discussion page of another drama, likewise. Will do that later: busy now ;)
