The novel and drama are not entirely the same. No mention of concubines in the drama.
I think the comments about the concubines must have come from someone who read the novel. Mr Jiang mentioned that when it comes to matters of the heart/romance CYY is inexperienced. He also mentioned that he’s an introvert. Therefore I think these feelings were bottled up inside him. After he got injured he told his wife that he just wanted her to mention that they previously had interaction. CXQ was rather convincing even though it was all in his imagination.
They were actually some of the funniest scenes. I laughed out loud several times when Mr Wang was berating his…
And also the part where the wife said that people were saying that he’s desperate and he’s prime suspect behind CYY’s ambush. The idiom used was A cornered dog would jump over a wall. He asked his wife who’s she scolding a dog? So funny.
The actor playing WXF is acting so well. I always laugh when he is on screen.
Ep34 When his wife questioned if he was behind the ambush. WXF’s wife: People are saying that because you’re afraid that CYY/Chen San will produce proof of the collusion with Prince Chengqing you’re like a (狗急跳墙 )cornered dog jump over a wall- meaning a desperate person would do anything eg hire assassins . WXF: Who are you calling/(scolding)a dog? 🤣🤣🤣 WXF’s done so many bad things towards CYY that even his own wife doubt his innocence in this matter.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the conflict that’s coming up in the next few episodes (yay for hyperfixations!).…
@Lizzy When she first met CXQ she was only 14+. Naturally she would be attracted to someone closer in age to her. They share common interests. CYY was angry more with himself than with her. It was just a fleeting infatuation. He shouldn’t be this angry. She wanted to sort this out but he distanced himself. This is not a big issue. He was the one who mentioned that they should face problems together. What will he do in future if other men were interested in her? He cannot beat everyone up. I can understand his jealousy but there is no need to be jealous. FL made every effort to avoid CXQ. He should be appeased by that.

The reference between salt and rice is rice is the staple diet whereas salt is consumed in pinches but if salt consumed in pinches is consumed more than rice it means that person has more experience and wisdom usually referring to older people having more life experiences than a younger people. Nothing to do with price of salt.

It’s something like old money v new money. These ladies from noble families are snobs and look down on merchant families like the Ji family. Madam Wang is stupid. She should have let it be. She kept trying to put FL down in front of the other ladies and now it’s discovered she took the bird nest which is food for tribute.

And I love the Chinese idiom he used to describe FL. His wife thought that FL wouldn’t have known about the red bird nest but he told his wife that FL has eaten more salt than his wife has eaten rice which means that FL is more experience in this matter. It’s obvious that there is bribery going on .
Oh dang that’s some conspiracy if she did have something to do with ML’s first wife 😱
@HOP2020 Not really favoured. He didn’t amount to much. The wife and children are innocent so ML said he will take care of them. ML didn’t tell his mother that 4th bro murdered 5th bro or than he was the mastermind behind FL’s kidnapping . Whose aggression? MIL? Before marriage have to behave herself then once the FL ‘enters the door’ into the family then she doesn’t need to conceal her real colours.
