Sometimes when i watch these historical dramas, there’s a lot of romance, not against that, the romnace helps to relate with the drama too (the flow) but ehen romance is slow or not even yet in play, we are left with the script itself.
Definitely, the mischievousness, wickedness of fourth aunt was too much, at every turn, she caused disaster, this is actually known to LZ and most especially zŭmŭ, who aided and abetted her hideous character, just because her son died 6months after marriage to 4th aunt. Fourth aunt has been greedy from the start, trying to sow discord from the start, driving her husband to offer tribute ink with his brothers. Is fourth aunt the cause of the LI family downfall? No. Is fourth aunt the cause of her husband's death? No. Is she a factor? A big yes, she wanted her husband to show the elders that he is capable. But her tricks and immature underhanded plots against LZ was too much, even at her detriment... she'd still do them. Yes, fourth aunts wicked plots became repetitive, which is annoying to all.. but from my view point, the script wanted to show us, how low, pathetic, and pitiful her life was, in that hatred for LZ was her own resentment for actually playing a role in her husband's death, she could not open up about what she had done and channelled it to the eight branch and it grew to hatred instantly. The script wants to show us, how her life really hit rock bottom. So, patience should be put first whenever we see wicked plots from fourth aunt.
Because of the overly slow romance (mind you, LZ likes LWQ already and she knows he likes her, it's just that for now, they've not escalated it yet) we think the script is not good in general?
Let's take a look at LWQ, the script has shown us that he is handsome, smart, and for now only surviving relative of the Luo Family, he also has a male servant. But in all these, the script has told us that, though LWQ is good for knowing businesses to invest in, he never made a strong revenge plan. I can bodly say that his revenge plan again Tian family backfired on him. For someone that wants to carry out revenge for his family, i think his steps were nit thought through, the script has shown us that he too hit rock bottom, but has also immensely grown in wisdom from associating with LZ because that his foster sister did nothing for him (from my view point), he should be able to make better decisions and plans now.
For the next episodes, we will see Ronghua character displayed, she was a good friend to Zhen in Huizhou, but I think Ronghua is going to cause some troubles for LZ, it might be indirect but nevertheless.
We will also see a little more affection between LZ and LWQ (it should be more.. lol)
But in all, the drama is not entirely based on romance, the story is a typical historical drama, telling about ink, ink production, and how important it was then, yes, some of these tricks are old and annoying but let's bear them because more will come soon. Don’t drop the drama on account of the tricks, it's a good story line.
We also saw LWS grand aunt (ugly granny), this prolly means there's hope of the 3 of them surviving? We can only wait for more episodes
Pursue of Jade may be a lot more your style. Both Leads in the POJ are written very realistic, with no plot armor,…
Yes, in tbis drama, same as others that are similar like you mentioned... it's business and the story of the character before romance. That romance? We will all get it at one point of this drama... we will get enough.... right now the characters are still building... remember, LZ told ML that she prefers to be business partners than friends, that she always wants a clear professional line drawn.... so it's a gradual process and I think the script writer tried a lot in building the characters to be a bit realistic
I think we should always look at dramas, movies, as real life happening inside a TV.... because sometimes and most times in real life.... we go over the same thing over and over....
I think, its a good script so far, only thing I don't want to see are cliche lines like... "you've got talent, and can fight for yourself and I've only had a family that sees me as an object of connection"... once i see these... then i will just classify it like every other cdrama
Retitled - The Heirs....1 may become the heir from hard work and the other may become the heir through vengeancehow…
I think QJ revenge plan is not hardcore... he has money but doesn't have the plan... a steong plan i mean, one that can overturn his family's case... for resources, I've only seen LZ for now.. prolly he has other networks that we have yet to see
The story line is LZ and Luo WQ together will bring back the glory LI ink.... in this story... LI ink experienced a down fall and same gies with Luo Ink and a decline in each family... outwardly.. it seems Tian ink is responsible for the downfall of Luo Ink and family but if you take a look at recent events with the Tuan family, you will realize that they are all dim-witted and incapable of devising auch a plan.... therefore, it falls to ine thing... there's a really strong backer behind the scene or someonewho is againstthe LI and Luo Family.. to the extent everything fell into place for him... without making much moves... and is also responsible for the downfall of the Luo family but also responsible for the destruction of LI Ink tribute some years back.
Also, when LWQ said he wanted to take revenge, i didn't expect a an immature planned revenge... he should habe seen that the Tian family are simply dim-witted people and that they prolly have a backer
Do you know the most annoying character that was written? Xue Qing Lan. Her response when GJZ and CYY came to pay respect to YX father was appalling, it's not GJZ fault that YX liked her, and that YX was not giving her the attention she eanted from him. And furthermore, talking harshly to GJZ, I think writing her character like this makes it seem like a girl who need attention from YX and want him to be grateful to her. YX is like a brother to GJZ so no matter what, he will always be there for her, YX is someone GJZ can depend on. XQL can't do anything about it.
Chen Yanyun is understandably over-reacting and the problem is that he also has a major blindspot: He cannot see…
Actually, the family adored him, he just had inferiority complex, he felt he didn't deserve what came to him because he had no parents, so for him whatever they tell him to do he does, because he thinks that's his way of repaying their love and favor. Unexpectedly, he was reducing his own self esteem
For CXG, to him he has never felt like he owned anything, even when his ucle gives him options to choose or ask for his suggestion, he still goes ahead to with his uncle's suggestion or family suggestion. He had to play fake hero for his uncle and encountered GJZ for the first time and admired her and even more so at her coming of age ceremony. He felt like he can now have something he can call his own, unknowingly to him that GJZ is a free woman by nature, who doesn't want to be bound by society rules, but CXQ is slow and even when they planned an outing he didn't show up or apologise. What do you expect from GJZ, she was heartbroken and following was her mother’s death, no condolence messagefrom CXQ, three years away from the capital and no word from him, someone else showed up more in her life and she gradually felt ease and comfort with this person and you expect her to still think of you (CXQ)? She fell in love with CYY and he did too (first actually). All these while, CXQ has been engaged but kept thinking of GJZ who has forgotten that he even exists, CXQ no longer felt admiration toward GJZ but now obsessed with her (in a quiet manner) that's why he did not want to offer tea to her after her marriage, that's why when he noticed her maid was not with her at her wedding night, he wanted to go to her room, that is why he blames her, even when he was the one who broke her heart. For me i felt GJZ did not understand that she just admired CXQ then and didn't understand that admiration was just a fleet of the moment, not all admiration must lead to marriage. Also, after CXQ refused to show up at their meeting, GJZ never showed him any vibes that she still admired him. It was all CXQ wishful thinking, he should blame himself for not speaking up when he had the chance, what did he want? To marry his betrothed and then marry GJZ as a concubine to fulfill his desires? He should have understood that GJZ would rather stag unmarried than even do that, even if he were the last option on earth
EP 33 - I can't believe.. the turmoil both the leads going through, imagine a guy stand up infront you and say…

Thank you, that's how she see him and he looks at her like that, he just doesn't understand that his care for her is on the platonic side, he doesn't understand his feelings when he comes to her. GJZ had that same misunderstanding with her feelings too with CYY niece
No, not lazy writing.
