MJN

Her range of acting is so great. She is definitely one of the best actresses in Chinese Drama land. She becomes the part she plays and I love it. She also gets better with each project she does.

I didn't blame her, necessarily. I am a mother myself and would most likely of reacted the same way. What bothers me, is her insinuation of her son never doing anything wrong and that she immediately went to blame Tou Tou without even listening to her explanation. It was very disheartening. She has been pretty critical of Tou Tou this whole series so far and backing her son, even though Tou Tou has taken the blame for him and has done nothing but praised RTZ's mother, and yelling at RTZ and her master for treating the mother badly.

I don't rate a drama til I finish. I will, if I remember rate the episodes, though.

I thought that was so funny.

I am hoping with them getting the ginseng back or even with this new patient he has (was shown at end of episode 22), maybe one of these things will lead to a solution that they won't have to sell the house(s).

I keep watching this over and over. I think it is so cute, even though I don't know what they were saying.

I am wondering about some of these added side stories in this series. Is there a point for us to know about her ex husband getting remarried and their child going to the wedding, and also, her not wanting her ex and his mother to pick up her son anymore?

I understand why RXZ wanted to sell the house, but why did they say they wouldn't have a place to live if Ling Lan had a house too? I am so confused about that. RXZ was going to sell her parents' house, but then Ling Lan said just sell my house. I get the understanding of needing the money for the apprenticeship class, I don't get why they just didn't offer to sell her house to begin with and does no one live there now? So confused about that.

And, LOL... "Meng Meng, what are you doing?" "I am washing Tou Tou" LOL, and Tou Tou just stands there with her arms out....

First 15 mins of episode 21...... I have so many thoughts and am so mad and aggravated, I can't even right now. I thought I didn't like RTZ, but his mother right now is beyond anything (although, as a mother myself I can understand why she feels this way). It is just I feel his mother has never even really given Tou Tou a chance. Ok back to more watching..

The person who plays Mr. Liu in this series Gen Z, plays a character called Dr. Gu in the drama currently airing called Here We Meet Again, starring Janice Wu and Vin Zhang

I am watching Here We Meet Again and he is playing a doctor in that series. It is funny seeing him in two different roles at the same time.

But I agree, I haven't liked the Mr. Lui character from the beginning. They should have known he was shady at the beginning, no one just gives you a facility to use for free and then when RXZ wanted nothing to do with the commercialization of TCM, Mr. Lui backed out of letting him use the facility, definitely he isn't really thinking of the best interest of TCM and the apprentice classes.

Today's episodes were a bit slower paced. I actually FF'd through a few scenes (the blind date scene and the baby item buying scenes), cause they weren't really related to the story that I am more interested in and for me were a bit boring.

What I did enjoy:
~The grandparents inclusion of Tou Tou in their New Year and giving her a red envelope. It was nice to see her interaction with the family and how they are accepting her.
~Tou Tou's and her bestie's (Xing Xing) conversation. Very sweet about them living together when they are old.
~Tou Tou's amazing confrontation with the patients in the TCM practice, putting all those patients in their place. Loved this scene.
~The scenery and their trip up the mountain to find the ginseng.
~Tou Tou backing her master and adamantly saying how she did not want to dig up the ginseng, cause it wasn't right. (even though she was excited initially at the amount the ginseng could get) You definitely see her growth here and her understanding of nature. It was really thoughtful (even though we know it doesn't last, as it looks like they will go and dig it up anyway)

I posted a link in a comment above, although it is not subbed.

Thank you, now that I looked him up, I have seen him in a couple of other things as well. I knew he looked kind of familiar.

exactly!

I really enjoyed her call with RXZ, "Master, I've learned it. I've learned the lesson of life." I was a bit critical of her character before, but she absolutely shined in this episode.

me too, lol, do you know who he is? I didn't check to see if they even have him listed in the character list

I am watching it on WeTV/ Tencent app. The subs are good, except for episode 3 for some reason the subs are really messed up on that episode.

Yes the OSTs are so amazing. I was just actually thinking about that, after watching today's episodes.

I don't get the mom. Ling Lan. First she is adamant about Meng Meng not staying and then she gives in ( I thought she had some kind of ulterior motive by agreeing, but didn't see it ). Second, she still isn't accepting of Tou Tou, that really bothers me (I am still at mid ep 18, wanted to come here and type this out). Tou Tou is always sticking up for her and being nice and taking responsibility for things others have done. Why does the mother keep saying Tou Tou's negatives are just to much? From what we saw Tou Tou hasn't done anything hugely negative, especially compared to what her own son has done. Everything Tou Tou has done has been for good reasons, etc.
