MCH paid her grandma for 6 months rent so they should be able to live in YZM's house for the duration of the 6 months, that was the deal with grandma. Has it been 6 months? Of course, YZM will let them live there longer. When MCH paid grandma, she also inherited the funds back, so she may have to transfer it to him, of course, he won't ask for it. YZM's end game is MCH.
There are over a million "leftover" women in Shanghai alone. These are women who are educated and financially independent, didn't feel the need to marry in their 20's. Now they are over 30 and very hard to find someone same status to marry. Women do not marry down, they only marry up.
Sheng nu (Chinese: 剩女; pinyin: shèngnǚ; common translation: leftover women or "leftover ladies"), "unmarried women over the age of 27". The China Daily newspaper further reported that the term originally gained popularity in the city of Shanghai and later grew to nationwide prominence.
An excerpt states, "Pretty girls do not need a lot of education to marry into a rich and powerful family. But girls with an average or ugly appearance will find it difficult" and "These girls hope to further their education in order to increase their competitiveness. The tragedy is, they don't realize that as women age, they are worth less and less. So, by the time they get their MA or PhD, they are already old – like yellowed pearls."
The food poisoning incident sets up everything to look suspicious. Plus how else could the writer get ML to show…
When Cui talked YZM, YZM did not deny anything, he just said "I got it" which sounds almost like thanks for telling me this. but I guess Cui is suspicious knowing the YZM wanted the hotel
@whoissilmoy老太太 lǎo tài tai is a polite way of addressing an elderly lady or someone’s mother.
I get it. I'm so dense. He told the bully's wife that he will sue her husband if he press charges against Mrs. Liu. I saw the word "harassing" and my mind was stuck on MCH. But harassing here is referring to him pressing charges. When did YZM learn that the wife is in charge of her husband, from MCH's parents?
What did grandma mean that he (MCH's father) should love his wife more? Is she faulting him? Then grandma tells MCH's mother she needs to learn to relax.
so that beating someone would be more painful for them 🤣
I thought the rivet shoes were in reference to YZM become her target if he is the son-in-law. I found another perspective online. If the shoes have rivets, it prevents the mother from using them to beat someone as it will hurt her hands and also, she will not want to kill a person. Then it makes sense why He Dong said "that's why you are the boss" which implies that he is very clever.
Douban: "It's hard to say, in fact, there are quite a lot of such Liu Wanyu in real life." "In fact, reality is often bloodier than TV drama." "It's pretty realistic" "In fact, there are still a lot of mothers like Liu Wanyu around me, I understand but don't agree, I will really be tired of having such a mother" "There are still a lot of such mothers, but most of the daughters are not so well-behaved, so they broke out early and didn't dare" "The reality is more exaggerated than this" "My brother and sister and his parents are even worse than Ms. Liu Wanyu"
judging from the teaser, Zhang's daughter watches MCH's mother so caring can't bear to let her daughter go, yet her own mother can't stand her and don't want to take care of, it seems that YZM is only her guardian, not a real girlfriend.
what did he mean to buy Mrs. Liu a shoes with a pair of rivets? YZM said he told the man's wife he would sue him for harassing an old lady. "old lady", is that an English translation error?
"All parents care about their children, but the children may not care about their parents." "I'm not commanding respect; I'm just telling you what I've learned in life to help you."
YZM is not at all troubled by the mother's behavior toward her husband. He only smiled. What's the mystery of the jigsaw puzzle? Is it the home he been dreaming about since he was a kid? MCH actually takes after her mother, her tenacity and strong will.
