100% agree!

since they will be quarantining together in the same courtyards, i really hope the ml's 3rd sister will take his words to heart and just confide in the fl while he's away. they need to separate the 2nd sister from lady du asap.

got me giggling and kicking my feet on the fl's behalf lol.

it disgusts me how upset du zheng was when his little make-out session got disrupted. the way he was annoyed that he couldn't go "further" with the second lin girl... smh. in that era, taking a noble lady's virginity prior to her wedding was one of the worst things you could do to her. if he had genuinely loved her, it would've softened the blow on a personal level, but he doesn't actually care about her at all.

truly despicable. can't wait to see the du siblings go down.

i have so many feelings while reading this. whether this is the finalized script or not, i just know we're gonna be crying our eyes out. 😂😭

thank you for sharing!

i think it's a good thing that the 2nd sister doesn't want to marry the marquis. personality-wise, she isn't compatible with him anyway.

based on the trailer, the 3rd sister will marry him, and she seems like a better match. both characters share a similar temperament: quiet, observant, and reasonable. they'll most likely get along much better. aside from the fl and ml, and yuchan and jiugao, this is another couple i'm invested in.

ep16. the 2nd sister's reaction to the marquis:

same. i don't know how to explain it other than she has sociopathic "i'm dead inside" eyes lol. the character, not the actress. i like how when she isn't putting on a friendly show for others, her resting face is so... soulless.

so glad the first madam is smart. she can read between the lines, doesn't jump to conclusions, and knows how to be discreet. a much more competent person than her husband, jinqi's dad.

no, i believe the sister who will get a divorce later is the eldest lin sister. we haven't met her in the drama yet because she's already married and no longer lives in the lin household.

you're welcome!

they watch so many transmigration and time travel dramas, they start to believe they are transmigrators and time travelers too lol.

not sure if there are any major differences between the two versions, or which is better, but both sites are here in case you have a preference.

8 minutes into ep11, and i already adore the ml's sisters. these siblings are so protective of each other. my kind of drama!

whattt, that is amazing. congrats to the cast and crew! such an accomplishment is well deserved!

right? we haven't seen much of him, but from what we have seen, he seems loyal and protective of those who have earned his trust. as far as ancient men go, it could be much worse.

and yu chan does seem like a good character so far. i hope she becomes a genuine friend / ally / mentor to our fl.

so you are allowed to post your opinions in a public comment section, but other people aren't allowed to respond to them? so silly, but okayyy. like i previously said, you do you lol.

ohhh i like your interpretation of that scene. it sounds like something he would do.

he's beautiful! i couldn't recognize him at first either lol. some of the most convincing cross-dressing are going on in this drama. 😅

LOL. hey, if you already know that this is a characters-driven story, not a plot-driven story, but still choose to watch it and complain when the drama is actually focusing on setting up the story and characters, then that is your right. all i'm saying is for these long-form dramas, especially one that is 47 episodes, action and fast-pacing aren't going to be the priority; expecting that will only lead to disappointment. but you do you. 😂
