    Reader note

    This book is somewhat like an ancient version of a "family feud," but the characters are all incredibly vivid, not simply good guys and bad guys. Especially the female protagonist, Qin Wanran; although she doesn't come from a particularly illustrious background, she's intelligent and strong. After marrying into the Duke's mansion, she has to carefully navigate the complex interpersonal relationships and undercurrents. The male protagonist, Zhou Shujin, isn't a traditional perfect male lead either; he has his own secrets and difficulties, which are quite heart-wrenching to read. Every character in the book is quite compelling, such as her extremely jealous sister Qin Wanyin and her scheming father Qin Mingyuan. Each character has their own storyline, drawing you in quickly. The plot is also very tight, not dragging on; each chapter introduces new developments, making you want to keep turning the pages. If you enjoy stories with depth and complex relationships, this book will definitely captivate you. Reading it is like watching a captivating TV series, but with even more room for imagination. I think this book is perfect for readers who enjoy slow, deliberate reading and like to analyze characters' psychology and relationships. If you're interested in this type of book, you definitely won't be disappointed.

    Seeing that she wasn't being scolded anymore, Su Ci cautiously tugged at the sleeve of his imperial robe. "What are you doing?" He asked, his voice much gentler. As he lowered his head, a bead from his crown inadvertently fell into her hair. Unable to speak, Su Ci drew on her palm with her finger, indicating she wanted paper and pen. "Alright." Xiao Jun Chu was unusually patient, personally fetching paper and pen for her, and thoughtfully dipping them in ink. "Write down what you want to say to me, and I'll grant you anything."
