So I got curious again about the jade pendant worn at the waist on the hanfu, and found this article that explains the history and purposes in etiquette. It’s quite fascinating.
I also noticed that NiaoNiao always wore white jade, and knowing that many cultures attribute deep meaning to not only particular stones but also the color, I found this information - which, when you think about her personality it lines up perfectly. Another subtle reference to the Chinese culture:In Chinese culture, white jade symbolizes purity, virtue, and moral integrity, often associated with heaven and used in religious rituals. It is highly prized for its beauty and spiritual significance, representing peace and harmony.While it took her a while for her character to mature, and even though she endured great difficulty from childhood, she never lost her innocence and never felt every human being was beyond redemption.Jinbo (waist/belt ornament) and Buyao (Hairpin with dangles):https://www.newhanfu.com/43069.html

It is very sad indeed.

There are no jobs, people are living on the streets, their food is being poisoned by chemicals and toxins, the government doesn’t care, and the 2nd generation elites are corrupting the entertainment industry. The world is turning into a terrible place 😭

Being from the US I might agree on some part of that being true. But, if it would benefit the government in any way, they might do something. Most people here have been propagandized into believing the governments around the world are “okay” when in reality they are all out for benefitting those in charge. You may be correct, but we can still hope that the more people who know about the travesties that are happening to actors like LMY someone of influence and a mind for justice for innocent people will come along and do something to find answers and hold the monsters responsible.

just came across this video by China Insider that claims someone bought the torture video of YML off the dark web (for $100,000 usd) and turned it over to the FBI. Accirding to this channel, the FBI is looking into things now. Let us hope this is true and the truth will be revealed to the world soon.

Yes, I loved that scene as well. I really hated her mother every time I watch this (4th time now), and each time I dislike her even more.

That was pretty intense. And rather telling that their romance was going to be a slow burn and that he was going to have to take a lot of misunderstandings initially. She was so young at that time and had no clue that a man 6 years older than her had falling in love with her. His eyes were glued on her, and his emotions were written all over his face. Vulnerability, a little fear, admiration, trust, and a whole lot of longing for her to feel the same way as he did.

I agree with Legend of the Femake General and Blossoms in Adversity - both have their own merits.. You can try Journey to Love with Liu YuNing and ShiShi, Prisoner of Beauty, Brocade Oddesy, The Sword and the Brocade. If you like a little fantasy element as well, try Novoland Pearl Express - it’s often overlooked, but I found it very very good.

Yes, that scene felt off for me also. I think that it speaks to the fact that nearly everyone forms their own opinion about people without trying to get to know them, and those assumed thoughts can be so very wrong. I very much wanted to walk around that table and smack them all on the head.

Eventually yes she does. But it comes with a price.

LLTG is one of my favorites also. ❤️

Isn’t it though? There are so many little subtleties in c-dramas! This is my 4th rewatch and I always find the scene so beautiful but also heartbreaking for Ling Buyi, but it changed the atmosphere with that knowledge and it became “hope” instead.

It’s so disturbing. I literally wake up in the middle of the night to pray for the truth and the safety of the Chinese people from these monsters.

Do you think this also ties in with the alleged stroke that took place a few days ago? Perhaps this individual is in hiding in order to ready himself for this transfer.

I am praying his efforts fail miserably and heaven intervenes in ways where guilt is exposed for all involved.

There should have been a few things like that which should have been addressed.

So…I do stupid stuff like wearing good clothes when I paint. BUT, I never leave the easel without paint on my clothes, in my hair, on my face. So I was prepared for messy clothes and was a little disappointed that she walked away spotless 😂

You are correct. It is hard to say what censoring may have removed.
