No amnesia.

I didn't think much of it other than it's her mother's remaining most precious item. But now that you raised the question, I think you might be on the right track. Because ML is of an elite/high status background, so if the story is to remain intact with social status as expected in those ancient days, FL would need to be of similar social level. Her mother was probably from some important background.

He is indeed very hot in this one. 🔥

Just binged all available 5 eps. It'll be my new daily go to drama for this month! So looking forward to new episodes. I like them two as a cp. FL is awesome and ML is very understanding as well. Even FL's little sister is incredibly cute. Not to mention, the director does an excellent job, especially with appropriate slow-mo at some scenes, and minute details like how FL corrected the position to be more lady-like the first time F/ML spoke. The scriptwriter also has some legit credit, giving high expectation to Pursuit of Jade.

Got to say, I like costume dept's creativity with Gangster Jin's earmuffs. Haven't seen these muffs before in historical cdramas.

BETTER THAN Xie Wei!?!?!? Really?! Wow... I'm still on ep 1, but this comment is upping my expectation big time now. They do look good together though.

I totally understand your hobby. I enjoy interacting and reading relevant posts on MDL on dramas that I like to watch as well. Happy posting, reading, and watching! =)

We see it as speaking facts. They view it as something else. Why else censorships are still practiced heavily there?

It's true there's no real freedom anywhere nowadays. Everyone is restricted/bound by something, whether it be financial freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of sexual orientation, etc. Some just have a wider range. Let's just try to see the positives and be happy . =)

Very glad to see someone points this out. I'm just as surprised BIG TIME that China allows this show to air. It certainly shows that time has changed and the CCP is more lenient and forward thinking now, especially their tolerance level in airing the dirty laundry.

It irks me when I come across postings sometimes from mainland Chinese who claimed profusely that they have freedom. But they don't know what real freedom is, and sometimes, explaining not having to live in fear over reading widely read books such as Pride and Prejudice and Catcher in The Rye, is true freedom. They had been so conditioned in their socialist/communist world that they don't know better. I'm sure I'll be getting heat for posting this from some people.

My family also got their property seized in a communist country. All the things shown in the drama, my family also had experienced. We also know people who go sent to "re-education."

This aside, I really enjoy watching this drama. The scriptwriter is able to draw out the positives in a bad situation; and it's such a healing to the soul when tough issues are resolved.

He's indeed a jokester. He cracks me up with his mannerism.

Just finished today's ep 12/13. I'm loving FL so much. She's so level headed. Her intelligence and astuteness is on par with Huang Rong from The Legend of the Condor Heroes in the Wuxia/Jianghu realm. She tricked her way out of trouble with the Li Sect's members/elders multiple times, weaving half truth-half false stories. As a matter of fact, I like our FL more than Huang Rong because she's not as prickly. She deserves all the admirers, and of course, ML's🥰

He's so happy when he found out she's on her way to help him.

It goes back to their "money exchange/dealing" history since they were kids. That's why this move works in the drama for them.

They are not uncles related by blood. It's just a way to address an older man who's the same age/level as your parents, especially if the "uncle" is someone you've interacted with before or is in the same circle/community as you/your parents.

I don't think so. But the master loves her aunt.

Hahaha...FL compared ML to a proud white goose!

There have been lots of complaints about the poor and choppy edits, leading to disconnection. That scene was a prime example. Much wasn’t explained sometimes. Viewers would have to work things out. I understand your frustration.

My understanding is that he was exposed from the food/drinks because the saliva was poured into the well.

The clearing pill was just something else. Lady Yi wanted to test if the imposter was who she thought he was ( the original person who gifted her the clearing pill). He didn’t use it because he still had feelings / respects for her.

I watched with high focus and still had to rewind at some parts. 😂

I actually like it more than Unveil: Jadewind. I'm having a hard time finishing up U:J even when TWO of my top actress/actor are in it. It's been sitting in my "watching" bucket. I went straight to watch the last 2 episodes which I rarely do since ep 19.

Generation to Generation starts out slow for the first 4-5 eps, but it picks up after that. Some people in the forum strongly dislike the drama because it seems to lack a plot to them. There is a plot, they just don't see it. Hope you enjoy.
