I hate effed-up storylines but purely from a screenplay perspective, that scene was amazing. The actors were so good! There are some scenes in this drama that will stay with me forever because of the raw emotional intensity in them.

ikr they were adorable

Agree wholeheartedly. She committed a crime and got away scot-free, it makes me so angry 😡 Poor Qiqi, I want to hug him

I really thought we were done with evil women but that insufferable, home-wrecking selfish woman just HAD to come back, didn't she? 😡😡

What? Where did they say that? I don't remember him being sick or anything... I thought he was fine after that accident!
And if they were going for fertility treatment, isn't the one child policy in place?

It's 2004, though... isn't the one-child policy in place?

I like the points you wrote! Makes me understand things a whole lot better^^
I guess it's just his slow character that bugs me sometimes. I don't really mind that he hung on to his love for Master Ma for so many years, but at times he felt like a tragedy hero written by Shakespeare. Just looking at him used to drain all my energy. But I do like him.

I'm glad he got out of that terrible relationship. I usually don't like huge age gaps, but I've watched a few that kinda made it work. But here, I feel like they're just too far apart. Not because of the age gap, but because of the stages of life they're in. I can't feel Master Ma's love for Erqiang as a MAN. I feel like she still treats him as the sweet boy who helps her. And Erqiang doesn't stop calling her "Master"😬
I also feel that the way Erqiang first fell for her is so weird. I'm pretty sure he peeped at her because that scene where he watches her as she dresses was sooooo creepy to me. I didn't watch it properly because I was so uncomfortable. The two of them are always so cordial to each other... they don't feel "married." Compare that to Sanli-Yiding(yes, I will pick at every chance to talk about them😂) who argue, fight, cry, laugh and work with each other. They see each others' weaknesses and flaws. My heart jumps every time he looks at her in that way and kisses her cheek, making her laugh. He really knows how to make her laugh. That's why I'm so mad at the writers because we haven't seen the two together for quite a long time :(

I wish Yicheng actually beat him up -_-

I really don't understand why Yicheng handed over all that hard-earned money! We've all seen Yiding and Sanli struggle so hard with money. They KEEEEEEP giving it to people who don't deserve it! Go on a vacation together! Travel! You didn't even go on your honeymoon trip! *hits head against the wall and cries*

I miss my man Yiding 😥 No, actually, I miss the way we used to have at least a little respite watching Yiding and Sanli court or date or just be together. There was at least a little romance. At this point, Sanli's the only sibling who hasn't divorced her partner. All I'm asking is to see a little more of them. We hardly see Master Ma, too. And yes, we're still calling her "Master". sigh. I wish the writers stopped dragging around with Chenggang and get to the others. I'm not interested in this mom's grave story.

Simei has sapped all my energy. And Yicheng isn't helping, either. SAY SOMETHING! I don't blame Nanfang for accusing him of treating her like an outsider because he DOES treat her like that! Sure, we know he's probably still hurting over those two women leaving him like that and so he's careful, but it still isn't fair to her!

It was nice to see Qiqi bond with the family. WHYYYYYY does Episode 31's thumbnail show that witch Xiaomo??!! I WILL NOT be able to cope if they don't bring Yiding back in.

lmao I was so surprised

And the fact that he never tells her what he's feeling is definitely not helping -_-

I also skipped through some of Qiqi's scenes 😅 I really didn't want to watch another tragic story. But, honestly, I feel like she shouldn't have gotten off so easily. What @Nauriya said was right. He was a minor. And I could see that she knew he was naive and stupid. Does whether or not he wanted to have sex with her count in this situation? I don't think it counts as "consent," according to the law. I think what she did is a crime. He was visibly broken after the entire ordeal. He went through mental abuse, too.

I think the kid is his. Even if it isn't, the kid could very well be his because they did do it.

We literally had zero news of Qiqi until then and suddenly everything moves SO FAST 😳 And poor Qiqi looks soooooo traumatized while the girl just continues her happy-go-lucky life 😭 Poor guy, really.

Yes, I realized how much we want people we like to be perfect. We can't stand their faults when we see them. I think this drama is bringing me back to reality. I feel like Simei, living in my perfect, fantastical world and suddenly being shocked with reality 😂

I wonder what the Chinese audience reception of this drama is. I just found out Zhou Shen(Charlie Zhou) sang the theme song, so it must be quite a high-profile drama... He's sung theme songs for Love and Redemption, Skate into Love, The Song of Glory, The Long Ballad and The Sword and the Brocade and has been praised as one of the most renowned Chinese singers in recent years.

You hit it spot on! Jackpot! 😂 But her conversation with Sanli(the last time we see her alive) is AMAZINGLY done. I loved the power, intensity, and raw portrayal of emotions. Sanli really goes all out on her, and you're able to understand Yiding a little better. The actors really are top notch. I was moved to tears.

We have to see that witch AGAIN??! 😭😭 ahh JINJJA

I guess we're going to see a very realistic portrayal of what it's like for a guy from a poor family to get married into a rich family... I'm fastening my seatbelt or I might get dizzy like last time 😳

I don't think the drama was made to make any sense 😂 They're just taking viewers on a funny ride.
