im ngl, i had to drop this one. Not only is the romance & the show itself so SLOW, but the ML is just... ew.&…
You didn't get lin jinqi's personality at all. He is an arrogant person and lanxiang's status was just of a maid so he always thought that for lanxiang to marry him and become the first madam of the household would feel like an honour to her. He thought the only reason she was angry at this marriage was because she was in love with han liang. Though in ep 37 he does talk with her and apologize her for not understanding what she wanted and she too admits her mistake. In their relationship his biggest flaw is that he does things while assuming that he is doing it for her own good and lanxiang's just being stubborn because she likes han liang. Beside this flaw he is actually a respectful gentleman who listens and cares about his wife more than any husband in that era would.
But if you were watching this series for romance then this series is indeed not suitable for you cause for me it's all about lanxiang trying to survive and live a good life. I'm watching it for the slice of life and the way the smart lanxiang solves the sticky situations. There are twists and turns but not much romance so yeah.
I know I’m selfish, but I truly hope that the second male lead will never fall in love with that annoying sister and gets a concubine just to irritate her for spoiling his change to have married the love of his life… and the sister will be unhappy for the rest of her life 😜
I appreciate the conversations and knowledge we share in here. We've watched these dramas for so long - and through them we've learned a lot about their cultures, lol probably more than we know of our own.
The more I watch, the more I realize that Xie Shu really has that kind of character. But at the same time, I feel like his mother is the real puppeteer behind the Xie family.
