Now we got our answer on how they get tea ready instantly in the middle of the night 😂
True—having someone standing guard all night; that’s incredible.

En todo de acuerdo, pero ella juega con ventaja con respecto a las demĂĄs sirvientas; fue una damita noble antes…

That young girl who acted as Shen Jia Lan, how beautiful she is and her acting is so good. It never felt lke acting…
Sorry, are you referring to the lead actress? Tan Song Yun
(Xu Lan Xiang / Shen Jia Lan)—she is already famous and has a long professional career. Yes, she has a baby face, but she is 36 years old; she looks like a young girl, but she isn't one.

Finished 6 episodes and I am thoroughly entertained by the detailed and captivating plots. Did not want to buy…
En todo de acuerdo, pero ella juega con ventaja con respecto a las demĂĄs sirvientas; fue una damita noble antes de todo lo que le pasĂł a su familia, asĂ­ que conoce todas las tretas, por asĂ­ decirlo. Y ella es muy inteligente, inteligencia que seguro le servirĂĄ para salvarle la vida una y otra vez, viendo cĂłmo se las gastan en ese patio de mujeres; si una es mala, la otra peor.
*****************************************************************************
I agree completely, but she has an advantage over the other maids; she was a young noblewoman before everything happened to her family, so she knows all the tricks of the trade, so to speak. And she is very intelligent—an intelligence that will surely help her save her life time and again, given the way things are in that women's quarters; if one of them is bad, the next is even worse.

Title Against the Current Spoiler
La trama va avanzando lenta pero inexorablemente. Si no recuerdo mal, ambos protagonistas, amo y sirvienta, es la primera vez que estån mås cerca el uno del otro; en una misma habitación, ella con mirada de terror. La esposa se estå jugando literalmente el pellejo, no uno, sino dos amantes; chica, parece que quiere que la descubran. El patio de la primera esposa es un foco de envidia y muy malas artes entre las sirvientas, unas muy inocentes, otras mås interesadas. El esposo, el prota a la caza y captura de pruebas contra su mujer; estå claro que quiere deshacerse de ella, seguro que lo consigue;,veremos mañana qué pasa.Me sigue gustando mucho este drama.
**********************************************************************************************
The plot is advancing slowly but inexorably. If I recall correctly, this is the first time the two protagonists—master and maid—have been in such close proximity; they are in the same room, and she looks terrified. The wife is literally risking her neck—not with just one lover, but two; honestly, it seems like she *wants* to get caught. The first wife’s courtyard is a hotbed of envy and underhanded schemes among the maids—some quite innocent, others more calculating. The husband—the protagonist—is hunting for evidence against his wife; it is clear he wants to get rid of her, and he will almost certainly succeed. We’ll see what happens tomorrow. I’m still really enjoying this drama.

where do i watch the other 3eps since that web isn't working..
LĂłgicamente, en Viki y en WeTV, pero tienes que pagar. Viki suele liberar poco a poco los capĂ­tulos en modo gratis, pero tardarĂĄ. Cierto lugar, segĂșn tengo entendido, ha sido atacado y, si asĂ­ empezaron con todas las demĂĄs pĂĄginas hasta que desaparecieron, la piraterĂ­a se combate hoy en dĂ­a con mĂĄs fuerza, asĂ­ que te recomiendo que elijas lugar y mejor abona lo que corresponde. Si puedes, verlo gratis es muy difĂ­cil ya.
***********************************************************************************************
Naturally, you can find them on Viki and WeTV, but you have to pay. Viki tends to release episodes for free gradually, but it takes a while. A certain site—or so I hear—has been targeted; since that’s how it started for other sites before they shut down, and given that piracy is being cracked down on more heavily these days, I’d recommend picking a platform and just paying the fee. It’s become very difficult to watch for free now.

Bueno, ya vistos los 4 primeros capítulos, debo decir que me han gustado mucho y es muy palpable el mal ambiente y tenso que hay en esa casa Lim. Esta actriz (Li Meng/señora Zahao), esposa del protagonista, de nuevo aquí su personaje es muy caótico y acabarå mal seguro. No me puedo olvidar de su personaje en (The Double, la princesa desquiciada). Por lo demås, todo fluye como debe ser; por cierto, la compañera de nuestra protagonista, otra que no puede terminar bien, es una casquivana muy ambiciosa; veremos. El papel de Liu Xue Yi/Lin Jin Qi no lo hemos visto mucho en estos 4 primeros, pero lo poco que ha salido ya se le ha visto cómo serå su personaje, muy conflictivo y violento. En cuanto a Tan Song Yun ( Xu Lan Xiang / Shen Jia Lan) y su doble identidad, es muy sumisa, pero creo que tarde o temprano serå descubierta; es evidente la clase, modales y apariencia, comportamiento, ese saber innato de saber estar, que tiene diferente a cualquier chica campesina sin estudios; veremos cómo avanza la historia.
*****************************************************************************************
Well, having watched the first four episodes, I must say I really enjoyed them; the tense, toxic atmosphere within the Lim household is palpable. The actress playing the protagonist's wife (Li Meng/Madam Zahao) portrays a very chaotic character—one who is surely headed for a bad end. I can't help but recall her role as the unhinged princess in *The Double*. Otherwise, the story flows just as it should. By the way, the protagonist's female companion—another character likely headed for trouble—is a highly ambitious flirt; we shall see. We haven't seen much of Liu Xue Yi (Lin Jin Qi) in these first four episodes, but his brief appearances have already revealed a very volatile and violent character. As for Tan Song Yun (Xu Lan Xiang / Shen Jia Lan) and her dual identity, she plays a very submissive role, though I suspect she will be found out sooner or later; her class, manners, appearance, and behavior—that innate poise—set her apart from any uneducated country girl. We’ll see how the story unfolds.

Vengo aquí sin tan siquiera haber terminado de ver el primer capítulo. Por Dios, qué capítulo mås bueno, desgarrador, triste, pero muy bien realizado. Me gusta, sigo viendo los otros tres capítulos restantes; solo quería decir que si este drama es todo así, serå todo un éxito. La niña actriz que hace de prima es una gran actriz en potencia; de adulta siempre trabaja muy bien. Saludos.
******************************************************************************************
I’m posting this without even having finished the first episode yet. My goodness, what a fantastic episode—heart-wrenching and sad, but so well-made. I’m enjoying it and am going to watch the remaining three episodes; I just wanted to say that if the whole drama is like this, it’s going to be a huge success. The young actress playing the cousin shows great promise; she always delivers excellent performances as an adult. Cheers.

There's a great video on the WeTV app that introduces a bunch of the characters with clips from the drama. I wish…
Lo he visto, me fastidia, tiene subtítulos en inglés, no en español, así que nada, leyendo entre líneas, entre leer y pensar para traducir; en mi caso no controlo el inglés y parece interesante, ya que hacen cada uno de los protagonistas las presentaciones de los demås personajes; creo entender así un poco por encima, ¿verdad?
******************************************************************************
I’ve watched it—it’s a bit of a hassle because the subtitles are in English rather than Spanish. So, I’m basically reading between the lines—trying to read, think, and translate all at once. I’m not fluent in English, but it looks interesting; each protagonist introduces the other characters, so I think I’m getting the gist of it—more or less, right?

You're looking at thru a modern lens. Look at it thru the historical lens, where women and the poor have little…
Claro que lo sé, pero no controlo el inglés bien, así que no escribo mucho por si acaso, y sí tenían amantes, incluso hijos, pero nunca los metían en su casa con su mujer; esa es la diferencia, pero por supuesto que había amantes, incluso con casa propia, pero el concepto era diferente, pero igual de humillante para la esposa. En cuanto a la religión, buf, hasta curas, obispos, etc., tenían hijos, menudos falsos que eran todos
Han existido amantes muy famosas entre las cabezas reinantes de esa época. Uf, si yo te contara, jajaja, como estudiante de historia que he sido, la cosa es tremenda. Pero insisto, una cosa es la monogamia con sus amantes, y otra es la poligamia. con varias esposas y concubinas, saludos.
*****************************************************************
Of course I know that, but I’m not very fluent in English, so I don’t write much—just to be safe. And yes, they did have mistresses—even children—but they never brought them into the family home with their wives; that’s the difference. Of course, there were mistresses—some even had their own houses—but the concept was different, though just as humiliating for the wife. As for religion... phew, even priests, bishops, and the like had children; what a bunch of hypocrites they all were.
There were some very famous mistresses among the reigning monarchs of that era. Oh, if I could tell you—hahaha—as a history student, it’s quite a story. But I insist: there is a difference between monogamy involving mistresses and polygamy involving multiple wives and concubines. Regards.

Gracias, pero sigo opinando que demasiadas mujeres que tienen que compartir a un marido y competir por ello tendría que ser un horror y las familias de esas mujeres esperando a sacar réditos de esa unión. Como bien dices, mentalidad moderna, difícil comprender y soportar tal proceso, jajaja y encima europea, pero nada, sigo opinando: triste vida la de ellas. Saludos.
***********************************************************************
Thanks for the reply—very kind of you—but I still think that having so many women share a husband and compete for him must be a nightmare, not to mention their families waiting to profit from the union. As you rightly say, it’s a modern mindset—hard to grasp or tolerate such a situation (haha), especially being European—but still, that’s my take: it’s a sad life for them. Best regards.

Estoy un tanto perpleja. Este hombre, Lin Yin Qi, ¿cuåntas mujeres tiene en su harén? ¿Cuåndo empieza este drama? Porque se ve una gran colección de mujeres; de verdad que en esos tiempos, vaya manera de complicarse la vida, tanta mujer, hijos, ¿para qué?, ¿para matarse entre sí? ¿Tendrían paz en su casa alguna vez? Bueno, veremos, pero me parece desde ya un lío de residencia familiar. Intrigas, maldades, etc. Esperemos a mañana a ver cómo se desarrolla esta historia y su comienzo.
***************************************************************************
I’m a bit bewildered. Just how many women does this man, Lin Yin Qi, have in his harem? When does the drama actually kick off? Because there’s quite a collection of women there; honestly, back then—what a way to complicate one’s life. So many women and children—but what for? Just to end up killing each other? Would there ever be any peace in the household? Well, we shall see, but it already looks like a chaotic domestic mess—full of intrigue, malice, and the like. Let’s wait until tomorrow to see how the story unfolds and gets started.

Hola a todas por aquĂ­. Bien, hoy debo decir que el capĂ­tulo 21 ha sido para mĂ­ de mucha intensidad.
Incluso me he visto dando voces a la TV, jajaja. Anda que en casa me miraban con cara rara, jaja. Me han cabreado los dos por igual, pero Flora mucho mĂĄs; ya le vi vestigios de ser un tanto infantil en CapĂ­tulos anteriores 15/16, pero es que hoy en el 21 rizĂł mucho el rizo. Resulta que nos ha estado vendiendo que es una chica independiente y que todo lo quiere ganar por sĂ­ sola y sin ayuda, con lo cual me parece bien,

2) El rebote que se ha llevado al saber que ella no era la ganadora ha sido duro, durísimo; se ha sentido traicionada por ese novio que tiene un día sí y otro no es mi novio. ¿En qué quedamos?

3) Niña, para lo que quieres, Luke es tu novio y tiene que darte lo que mĂĄs deseas (ascender), pero si no te lo da, entonces la relaciĂłn es tĂłxica, sucia, etc., y otras lindezas, y no te quiere, no te respeta. ÂĄPero si es lo que ha hecho siempre segĂșn tus deseos! ÂżNo serĂĄs tĂș la que no lo quiere lo suficiente? Pues yo he visto en todo el drama que Ă©l siempre la ha ayudado y apoyado en todos los sentidos, cosa que, siendo un tipo tan mandĂłn, zoque, autoritario, ya es de nota y sacrificĂł mucho su agrio carĂĄcter. Le metiĂł en casa un “perro”, animal que no querĂ­a en casa; mucha gracia no le hacĂ­a. Luego la querĂ­a mucho, pero en un principio, pues no, la verdad.

4) Discusión de ruptura: Ella se pasó tres pueblos por infantil, inmadura y egoísta, y Luke, como le dolió tanto todo lo que le soltó, un zasca en toda regla, en su línea le devolvió con creces ese resentimiento y el dolor que sentía. Y le contesto a Flora francamente como se merecía; ella es en ese momento una mujer “adulta”. Y, chica, unas veces se gana y otras se pierde, pero tienes más
oportunidades para ascender y darle un zasca a esos empresarios que anteponen dinero antes que
inteligencia y capacidad. Fin de mi diatriba y cabreo personal con ese capĂ­tulo. Saludos.
*************************************************************************************************
Hi everyone. Well, I have to say that Chapter 21 was really intense for me.
I even found myself shouting at the TV, hahaha. You should have seen the weird looks I got from my family, haha. Both of them made me mad, but Flora especially; I’d already seen signs of her being a bit childish in earlier episodes (15/16), but today, in Episode 21, she really took it to the extreme. She’s been selling us this idea that she’s an independent woman who wants to earn everything on her own without help—which is fine by me...
2) The way she lashed out upon finding out she hadn't won was harsh—really harsh. She felt betrayed by a boyfriend who is "on-again, off-again." Make up your mind, girl!
3) Girl, when it suits you, Luke is your boyfriend and has to give you what you want most (a promotion); but if he doesn't, then the relationship is toxic, dirty, etc.—all those lovely insults—and he doesn't love or respect you. But he’s *always* done exactly what you wanted! Maybe *you’re* the one who doesn't love *him* enough? From what I’ve seen throughout this drama, he’s always helped and supported her in every way—which is saying something, considering what a bossy, stubborn, authoritarian guy he is; he really toned down his sour personality. He let her bring a "dog" into the house—an animal he didn't want there and wasn't exactly thrilled about. He grew to love it, sure, but at first? Not really.

4) The breakup argument: She went way too far—acting childish, immature, and selfish. And Luke—hurt deeply by the verbal lashing she gave him (a real slap in the face)—responded true to form, firing back with even more resentment and pain. He answered Flora frankly, exactly as she deserved; after all, she’s supposed to be an "adult" woman. And look, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but you’ll have more chances to move up and really stick it to those business owners who prioritize money over intelligence and ability. End of my rant and personal gripe about that episode. Cheers.

Bueno, voy a dedicar comentario en mayor medida al capĂ­tulo 21; del resto ya lo hemos visto, ha sido un sprint en toda regla, algo que con tener algĂșn capĂ­tulo mĂĄs se hubiese subsanado. Pasar de 32 a 24 capĂ­tulos se ha notado mucho, sobre todo al final. SĂ­, le dieron un bonito final, una bonita puesta de escena de peticiĂłn de boda, nada mĂĄs. Pero en el capĂ­tulo 21, “Hay amigas”; eso es otra cosa, y sĂ­ voy a ponerme en el lugar de LUKE. Ahora que se ha terminado el drama, leerĂ© en mis vacaciones el libro en modo online; entonces voy a comparar al Luke del drama y al Luke de la novela. Dicho esto, postearĂ© del 21 en otro post. Saludos.
**************************************************************************************************
Well, I’m going to devote most of my commentary to Episode 21; as for the rest—which we’ve already seen—it felt like a mad dash to the finish, something that could have been remedied with just a few more episodes. The drop from 32 episodes to 24 was very noticeable, especially at the end. Sure, they gave it a lovely ending—a beautiful proposal scene—but that was about it. Episode 21, however—"Hay amigas"—is a different story, and I’m going to put myself in Luke’s shoes. Now that the drama has wrapped up, I plan to read the book online during my vacation so I can compare the Luke from the show with the Luke from the novel. That said, I’ll write about Episode 21 in a separate post. Cheers.
