Reader comments

This book unfolds from a man's perspective, describing the prosperity and customs of Jiangnan, and also showing the author's understanding of "love". The storyline is very attractive and made me feel the life and people's emotions in ancient society. However, I have reservations about some of the concepts conveyed in the book. After all, times have changed, and our understanding of emotions and life will also be different. But overall, this is an interesting book and worth reading.

I'm Looking for Antique Novels with Ancient Chinese Characters, and Not All Kinds of Crazy and Silly Stories.

I want something with a delicate writing style. Don't start with the scene about being disfigured and having your heart gouged out. It's too pretentious and blunt. There's also the concubine and the heroine who publicly criticize the heroine at various banquets. In ancient times, that kind of person could live for more than 3 hours by pretending to be dead. It's too unrealistic.

Are There Any Novels with Novel Ideas and Exciting Stories?

For example, Konoha Academic Master, Endless Murder Book, Write Your Destiny, Infinite Reincarnation Game, etc. I don't need to recommend the familiar ones such as Dali, Replica Mirror, God Slayer, etc. -_-||

Middle-Aged People Like to Read This Book, but Young People Should Read It!

I want to read a book similar to "Dream of the Golden Chamber". People only know some truths when they reach a certain age. However, there are also some unanswered questions. After reading Dream of the Golden Chamber (the nickname given by Tomato is The Story of the Climb of a Bank Executive), maybe you will understand some things...
