One could become a student of the lowest rank by taking the exam in town; there were no county or prefectural exams. Did the author know the exam process?
It was great, I finished watching it in two days. The more I watched, the more frustrating it became. Ever since Lu Er started school, the whole family has stopped talking. They're perfectly capable of communicating, but they just refuse to say a word. 😅
The author's writing is excellent, the story is exquisite and delicate, the protagonist has a powerful cheat ability, the female lead has strong survival skills and many abilities. What I like most is that the female lead should have an official love interest, unlike some novels where the widow is confined to her life. After all, the female lead has never been in love in modern times, and it would be too tragic for her to not have an official love interest.
The first hurdle for scholars in ancient times was the preliminary examination, which wasn't something that could be accomplished by taking it once in a town. It required passing the county and prefectural examinations... Passing these made one a "child student" (童生), and only after passing the provincial examinations organized by various educational officials could one become a "scholar" (秀才).
It was so frustrating at first, with all the weird relatives and annoying things happening, I almost wanted to curse. I managed to get halfway through but couldn't take it anymore, it was too annoying. I still prefer stories of kind-hearted and peaceful rural life. But the author is still very talented, five stars for you! 🥰🥰🥰
It's quite good. But why doesn't she try to guide her own son? He was tricked into stealing jewelry by that widow. It's obvious the widow made him steal it. And she even wants to help the widow escape her own son. I don't understand. That widow is clearly no good. She doesn't care about her own son, yet he's always out there stealing and cheating with the original owner's son. It's disgusting.
Why is the rating so low? It has a lot of content, and the plot has twists and turns, preventing it from being too bland. The content gets better and better; the changes in each character are very realistic. For example, those two love-struck individuals really needed to exhaust their last bit of trust and experience complete disappointment before they made a change.
The character development might be a bit awkward, but the overall narrative and story outline are quite smooth. There's some humor, but I think this kind of coming-of-age farming story could benefit from more of that element. The beginning might be challenging, but everything is difficult at the start. If everyone started as a lucky child blessed by heaven, it wouldn't be as enjoyable.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Not bad, I've watched over a hundred episodes from the beginning, looks like I'll see the ending! To be honest, there aren't many articles that I can watch until the end; most I delete after watching only one or two episodes.
