Yes, thank you. Typed too fast without thinking.

Grandma never reprimanded her because 4th aunt is in a unfortunate state, without a husband nor nucleus family. So grandma is being a generous person and just let 4th aunt be.

As for why 4th aunt is so nasty, it's because she blames her current "nobody status" on Li Zhen's immediate family. Her dead husband was next in line to take over the Li business, which means, she would be the next matriarch of the Li family; but now, she's left with nothing.

Not yet, but he still has the medicinal ink and pouch she gave him when they were kids. So I think that's going to be how she links him as the younger Luo when she discovers he has it.

Guest is anonymous to cameo role. On MDL, there isn't a "cameo" category, or at least, I rarely or never saw one. So, listing Lup Wen Son as a "guest" is actually a more prestigious listing than as a support role.

I like how the medicinal ink main herb will NEVER be known except between Li Zhen and her mom. There will never be a formula leak even if the book is stolen. =)

It's getting better and better!! So good!
New Li Ink = 1
Li Ink = 0

It's so nice to watch when FL and ML come together to win at their tasks.

Love the authentic on site location shooting of this drama. It's really fitting for the series: ancient, rustic, and raw. The black and gray buildings also bring parallelism to the ink on traditional Chinese paintings.

It made me curious about the Huizhou location, and upon more searching, there's a UNESCO village of HongCun. Other villages with similar buildings are Xidi and ChengKan. So historical and pretty when you google images these places.

I LOVE how ML knows EXACTLY who his arch enemies are. There is NO misunderstanding of any kind in whether "they did it or didn't do it" business. And because we as viewers also saw what had happened to his family, we're rooting for ML all the way. I'm so relishing every single step ML is taking in exacting vengeance.

ML is so smart in how he uses Lord Yan as the catalyst in initializing his plan. I'm already respecting his intelligence.

He finally realized who she is!!!! It's getting interesting!!!

I adore ML's assistant. Even the assistant is looking out for FL. =)

up to ep 9 now, It's so good!

I don't want to but I think he is.

Worth watching. Yang Zi is very good in here as well.

All the male Tian's are horrible people. I can't wait for them to die.

We finally see ML again. Love the bidding scene and how he constantly overbid SML. I'm so ready for him to take back his family's legacy.

I know. It's almost inevitable given the on-going tone of the drama.

Yes, worth watching. Sad at some points, but FL is great in here so far.

The adult version just showed up in the latest ep 6. So, not much to go off at the moment. He at least looks decent. 😀 And I'm ready to like him based on his communication with his brother via mail.
