I've read up to the fourth book so far, it's not bad. Will it be a disaster this time?
I've read another book by the same author before, which was very good. This one is the same; both are based on a dark version of a traditional courtyard house. The writing is excellent, smooth, and fluent. Overall, it's just as good as the one I read before. The protagonist of this book is born into a wealthy and handsome family, with both parents alive and a younger sister.
Judging from the beginning, this book is better than the previous ones.
I've found another great book about courtyard houses! Keep it up! 👍👍👍🤦🤦🤦 Cell phones and surveillance cameras were already out in the 1960s, awesome! 🤦🤦🤦
I personally think it's good. Anything that involves torture and abuse of animals is good.
This story is well-written, but the portrayal of He Daqing and Yu Shui is a bit... Unconventional, though there's a certain probability involved. Personally, I feel that after He Daqing ran away, Yu Shui and Sha Zhu were together. According to the original plot, Sha Zhu took over He Daqing's job at the cafeteria. There's also a theory that Yi Zhonghai used connections to get Sha Zhu.
The character is a bit hard to figure out yet, but I'm looking forward to the rest. I'll give it five stars for now. Keep it up, I love torturing my lover!
I've been watching countless courtyard house dramas lately, mostly giving them two or three stars. I can't guarantee this one deserves five stars, but the protagonist is intelligent, taking the initiative to deal with the breeding animals. It's just that the details need some development; it's not frustrating to watch.
Aside from being a bit short, this novel is indeed a high-quality courtyard house story. The protagonist's cheat ability is moderate, possessing Taoist inheritances in fortune-telling, medicine, and martial arts. Born into a family of top-tier officials, he has a high starting point but doesn't cause too much trouble in the administrative path.
To be honest, it's been a long time since I've read a complete "courtyard house" novel; I usually only read half before giving up. The evildoers all received their just deserts, and there was no drawn-out drama. The plot's pacing was clear and tight, and the protagonist's overpowered abilities weren't exaggerated, nor was he overly saintly! It's a very good "courtyard house" novel!
