Persevere and it does get amazing!!

Watching the first few episodes, I was disappointed as the story didn't grab me straight away. Maybe because there are so many characters (5 daughters and 1 adopted daughter) so it takes time to warm up and get to know them.

Episode 1-7 I would rate 6-6.5. I kept on going (even though at 1.5x, sometimes 2x speed) as I believe that Wang Xing Yue wouldn't take a role in a drama which is not worthy to watch.

Starting from ep 8, it starts to get gripping. You know, like you are watching and you really want to know what's going to happen next?

The sisterhood bond is so heartwarming to watch.

I'm now at episode 10. Will update (and edit the rating) as it goes. I have updated the overall score to 8.5

Edit. Just finished episode 26. I'm glad I persevered past episode 8. Spoiler: the mum will have less and less appearance as the drama goes on. That's s bonus point for me as I find the mum rather annoying.

So the first arch was Kang Ning (3rd sister) ep 1-10. They like to trick each other haha.

Second arch was Shou Hua (1st sister) ep 11-19. She and her husband are the intelligent/bookie type.

Third arch Ke Ying (4th sister) is what I'm currently watching (ep 26). She and her husband Shen Hui Zhao are perfect for each other because both 's strongest trait is honesty. Ke Ying seems like the most plain sister, so I surprised myself when her arch is my favourite one. They are sooooo adorable together (after her husband got an amnesia). The amnesia really did him good. Poor guy, how can anyone live shouldering the guilt of causing his sister and mother's death. Ep 25 is so swoon worthy!!! Ke Ying's first kiss, the way her husband kneel to tie the red belt with two mandarin ducks, ohhhh swoon!! And it's the start of the next arch (the Fifth sister!)

It's interesting how the arches intertwined with each others. The guy who showed up in ep 3-4 apparently will end up with the Fifth sister. Shou Hua's husband (2nd arch) showed up at 3rd sister's arch briefly before diving into his own arch later on.

I thought after the 3rd sister storyline (which got paired with a character played with Wang Xing Yue), how can it get better than that, right? They are supposed to be the Main CP. And the reason I started this was also for Wang Xing Yue.

Well, I was wrong! The subsequent sister's stories gets even better and better. The tears I cried and the laughs watching them, really was unexpected.

Shou Hua's story was a bit frustrating to watch, as the couple really like each other, but they are so bad at communicating. It got something to do with Shou Hua's reserved personality and history with her first marriage. But IMO, the story has more depth than Kang Ning's. I started crying at Shou Hua's story arch. Ke Ying's is even deeper. She is the least outstanding sister, but her personality shone once she left her sisters. So I'm now looking forward to the last sister's arch (and also the adopted sister).

Edit: I'm done watching at episode 30. I initially looked forward to Leshan (fifth sister)'s story, but I find her as unbearable and her ML counterpart as too weak. Maybe later in the future I will pick it up again and continue. For now, dropping the overall score from 9 to 8.5.
