A Concubine’s Survival Guide

The heroine is really transparent, and the principles inside are also inspiring, which is a bit like knowing. But she is also lucky. She has a good mistress and a loyal aunt, an open-minded father, a supportive brother, and she is lucky enough to meet Jane.

It's a good novel, but sometimes it makes my blood pressure soar.

The heroine is good-looking, smart, witty and kind, but not a virgin. I hope that the male protagonist will be strong in the future. He only loves the heroine and does not take concubines. He is just a bit verbose.

Although it is very frustrating, it is too real. This is the real experience of traveling from modern times to ancient times. I still want the author to let the heroine marry a good man again, because it is too painful to show. I want a good ending.

This ending is different from ordinary novels. The heroine does not have a good ending in the end. Perhaps marriage is not an inevitable path for women. Strong and independent women are also admirable. Not all endings are the perfect endings that people think. A story has many endings, and it all depends on how the individual interprets it. Life is like a play, and play is like life. People who have their own bottom line will never have a bad life. But if a person's desire exceeds his own bottom line, he will eventually destroy himself.

This is a difficult book to review because it is so true. It is a true portrayal of how a modern woman in ancient times chose a destination she thought was better for herself, and how she separated from her husband. In fact, even if a modern marriage is monogamous and the husband does not cheat, the family is still a mess. Children's education, family expenses, even just what to eat today and what clothes to buy are all the causes of family conflicts. Because of these trivial matters, the relationship between husband and wife is diminishing day by day. Life is very realistic. I don't want the child's family to be unsatisfactory and I don't want both parents to worry about it, so I won't divorce. Therefore, people are looking for a perfect ending in the world of novels to comfort themselves, trying to find a little sweetness in their terrible life.

I feel a bit like it, do you know?

I don't know why, but it feels a bit similar to Zhifu

Travelers often think highly of themselves because they have learned 5,000 years of Chinese ancient poetry and modern systems. This is the kind of thing the show prevents from the beginning. Life is all about your own choices. The heroine marries in the beginning just because this is what every woman will do. However, can people with different ideas really get together? I don't think so. It's just like a journey. When Jane (the male protagonist) regards power as the most important thing, the female protagonist and him will definitely break up. I followed the heroine from the time of serialization to the time when she got married, and there would eventually be differences among the chosen ones. It took the heroine the cost of a child to realize that it was really unfair to women in ancient times because they had no chance to change their lives on their own. Isn't it okay to live alone in life? Why in ancient Chinese literature, women cannot rely on themselves? Being alone, trying to convey your thoughts and letting yourself live your own life is also a good life.

One star is deducted for the role of Jian Xiwu. I hope the heroine finally reconciles with her and gets a good ending.
