1 Years Out of Sync 错线流年 Folding Fan Under the Moon月下折扇Ancient Romance127k WordsOngoing Three ill-fated matches, one mortal tribulation, and a few threads of true affection. A clerical error at the Old Man of the Moon's Hall sent me down to the mortal realm with a broken red thread to set three mismatched couples right: a cool and distant prince with a sweet palace maid, a scholar with the gentle daughter of a chancellor, and, for the final match, a good match for the mild-mannered and self-controlled Gu Xingzhi.

The plot is laid out in a long and steady flow, the works are connected naturally, the rhythm is just right, and the characters' personalities are vividly displayed on the page. The matchmaker copied the wrong marriage book and refused to pull the red thread, causing the marriages of three couples and six people to be messed up, and they had to go down to earth to remedy the situation. Among the six people, there are both talented people and beauties among the people as well as royal maids in the palace. The story has a grand structure and unfolds layer by layer, but it combines the feelings of family and country, personal love and hate, and occasionally mixes the author's discussion of life, death and true love. It is worth reading.

Reader note
This is a fantasy novel rooted in Chinese folk beliefs. Its protagonist is either a cultivator who ascends to transcend tribulations, or he is the Kitchen God whom we have heard our elders talk about since childhood. He has seen thousands of years of fireworks in the world, from wood-burning earth stoves to natural gas stoves. The incense has gradually become colder and the divine power has gradually declined, but he still guards three meals and four seasons, and fulfills the simplest wishes of ordinary people. There is no world-destroying war in the book, only the divinity in the firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the cause and effect of the family's shortcomings. It reads warmly and weightily, and is one of the rare stories about gods "with the warmth of the human world".
