At first, the story did not appeal to me at all. It looked boring, and I was not interested in watching it. However, after watching the first episode, I quickly fell in love with the setting, the costumes, and the story.
I especially like that the story is lighthearted and not as stressful as many other Chinese dramas that focus on women fighting over men, concubines, jealousy, and palace politics. Instead, this story is about an ordinary family trying to make a living and build a good life. I find that much more relatable and enjoyable.
I also appreciate learning more about the culture and history of my Chinese ancestors through this drama. The historical towns and traditional settings are beautiful and fascinating. They make me want to visit these towns in person someday and experience the history and culture for myself.
Certainly I would always treasure my grandparents who left China due to poverty. People had nothing to eat and constant war, killing, etc in China. This is a good story to learn about life through drama. Only Chinese would appreciate their roots.
