Yeah, story telling is not done right. I understand a widowed woman has to be tough to bring up her family in those times. But there is no reason to be rude, uncouth and ungrateful. And beating up guys to get them to submit and to show power, that is not a good message. If this was done to a girl character, you will get those nuts shouting misogynist and the need for equal rights. But crickets because it is a guy getting beat up by his wife? This is not equal rights then.
Anyways...Yes, meanwhile you enjoy the drama, let me know when Liang Yong Qi appears. It's nice he gets a better ending than the one his character got in The Double. And Jing Mie too! Let me know when they appear. LOL
I tried! I was gonna drop after EP 1. Soldiered on EP2 and started to FF in EP 3.
Frankly in real life, I don't think Madam Li will ever marry off any of her daughters, except the eldest maybe. Even if the match is from a ordinary merchant class family like hers. The Li family is rude, uncouth and ungrateful. The way they treat Chai An after he saved their asses time and time again. Like Huh? Where are your manners and gratitude? ๐๐คจ
As parents, would you let your son marry a woman who beats him up? NO! That is abuse. Equal rights mean whatever the girls say the guys cannot do, they cannot do as well. It is not ok to beat your wife and it is also not ok to beat your husband up. Yes, stand up to bullies and guys who are full of it, but not to the point of being violent and vulgar like the people you detest. I understand why Chai An's mum has such a bad impression of Madam Li. I have a bad impression of Madam Li. YAK! ๐คฎ
Might go back to look out to see how Liang Yong Qi and Tan He Yi's stories are coming along. Just maybe. For now, I cannot, I am out here. ๐ฌ๐๐ปโโ๏ธโโก๏ธ
31. I found TTEOTM fascinating because it showed the contrasting perspectives of how life experiences' can influence…
I love that Cdramas consistently drill in that one should not give into one's circumstances. One's life is not determined by fate but by what one does.
Im at epi 6 of Dafeng. No I havent dropped it yet. Hahaha im actually getting used to it and quite enjoying the…
I dropped it after the first episode. I am not vibing with a Hi6 comedic style with this XianXia. I know Dylan is good in modern dramas, but for costume ones, seeing him in silly comedic mode, I cannot. LOL
PM - EP 8Sighs...From EP 3 I FF-ed my way to EP 8 because there was Duke Su and I wanted to catch a glimpse of…
I caught a glimpse of our TTEOTM Alumni Water Deity. Pretty boy suits the part of the delicate, righteous scholar to a T and I think his character is a good match for the eldest daughter. They look like the perfect elegant couple from a Chinese painting. But sad to note, his acting has not improved very much. Cheering him on for improvement! You can do it Tan He Yi!! I thought it was kinda funny and cute that 2 future BILs (Duke Su and Water Deity) are hiding in the cupboard watching their other BIL panic because of his wife and calling him useless. LOL ๐
Other than that, Madam Li continues to be a hooligan and bimbo. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐คจ And her daughters (excluding the eldest and maybe the 4th daughter) are mini versions of herself. So idiotic and unnecessarily ill-mannered and uncouthed, I cannot continue. Being poorer, lower class and widowed is not an excuse for bad, moronic behaviour. That is disgusting and full of self-entitlement! If it had not been for Duke Su, I would have stopped mid EP1. And Duke Su's cousin is a WIMP. Come on, man up. Urgh. Forcing myself to watch, even with FF, feels like my blood pressure will give me a stroke. ๐๐
If the mood strikes me, I may pop in the later episodes to catch a glimpse of Duke Su's old competitor, the ex-husband. Maybe...if not sorry ex-husband, your MIL is full of ๐ฉ
And Moonies, our sexy 8 pec Jing Mie is in this PM too, but I think he is appearing in the later episodes. Pity! Joseph Zeng made a cameo, FIUYOH, so handsome as the emperor. And Li Yun Rui (Blossom's Song Mo) made a cameo as Master Li (father) talking to a little Kang Ning before he fell very ill. Gorgeous! ๐ If all dads were this handsome! LOL ๐คช๐๐คฃ
Alrighty, heading West till Weiwei's drama drops.
I am going to catch Castlevania and XO, Kitty to relieve my high blood pressure. ๐๐คฃ Maybe that Japanese drama, Lion as well.
Rant over....until I accidentally watch a scene again whilst trying to watch a few of my favourite actors. LOL ๐๐๐
It always amuses me that the boy or girl who gets to see the other party undressed (first) will end up together,…
Our poor Xixi was really skin and bones at that time of filming TTEOTM after that liquid diet. I don't think he was able to be shirtless without giving us a scare for his health. Sighs. Dang that idiot who hurt him. ๐๐คฌ
PM - EP 3I am not liking the mother of those girls.
She is vulgar, violent, ungrateful, money faced and a scheming pig. Apples don't fall far from the tree. No 3 daughter is also very scheming. No surprises there. WHY is No 3 daughter like this? I liked Lu Yu Xiao a lot as Shangguan Qian. ๐๐ฉ LOL.
The whole family excluding the eldest daughter are rude, ungrateful and vulgar. How many times has Chai An stuck his neck out for them? I think I might be dropping this soon. The mother and youngest daughter are especially annoying. YAK!
The 2nd sister is just as wrong as her husband. She is like some shrew hitting and yelling and feeding her husband…
FUIYOH....handsome handsome. ๐๐ But he cannot be like XiaoLin in terms of character in the love segment, else he will get into the Bitchang problem. HAHHAHA...๐คช
Anyways...Yes, meanwhile you enjoy the drama, let me know when Liang Yong Qi appears. It's nice he gets a better ending than the one his character got in The Double. And Jing Mie too! Let me know when they appear. LOL
So my analysis that if he is in ancient times, he would make a good merchant class salesman. He will be one rich merchant!!! Hahahahhaha...
I will go check out your recommendations of a better version of this drama. Thanks!

Will you be catching PM?
Very good advice!
I got this translated from a greeting I saw on the CCTV Spring Gala celebrations. Hahahhaaha...Have to say such a greeting is so prosperous!
