A drama like no other

It's first time I see a drama after reading the novel, and like it even if it deviates from the novel !
The script is so good because it makes it easier for viewers to understand the characters.. and these characters are so complex : Shaoshang has become selfish and scheming, smart and cunning, because she needed to survive unprotected since birth, and after reunited with her family 15 years later she is met with disdain and more punishmentd from her mother. This is why the drama's first 5 episodes seem slow but they actually build the backbone of the story and are essential - episode 6 already has the plot going ! Cinematography is beautiful, and so are the costume and make'up, no brilliant red lips thank you very much !
Casting is on point, I can not say " that one was a bad choice", the comedy scenes are in the VILLAGE this is why actors play like silly village people, including grandmother and comp.. Very impressed with FL acting, considering one needs to express subdued dissapointment, anger and sorrow within the limitations of the era rigid attitude for women, and respect for elders..the way she realises her choice to stand up even to her mother or continue to be bullied, that desperate painful bravery without melodrama, is simply unique in cdrama.. I will stop here before revealing more..
Be patient until ep 6, and don't miss this show, as will be your loss !
