After listening to Teacher Ji's performance of Xi Huan, I really liked the character and wanted to come over and read the original text. The front part is a little sad, obviously not abusive, but I just feel a little sad, the back part is very sweet, it's so nice for the two of them to be together!
Watching it again, some parts of my heart still feel throbbing and painful in ancient times.
I really like the author's ancient novels, Forbidden Court Enters the Pit, and I like all the books I read afterwards. I like "Skinny in One Night" not because of how unforgettable it is, but because of its truth, goodness and beauty that are very close to reality. No matter what difficulties we encounter, Yingsheng's never giving up and Huanxi's never give up have always held my heart. I also like Xi Huan's response to Mu Sheng. There are so many reasons when you love. Regardless of the past life or this life, we must protect each other's safety for the rest of our lives. Moreover, in the author's articles that I have read, the portrayal of family and friendship has always made me feel that it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Every heroine not only has love, but many other important people are also part of their lives, accompanying them in their growth and witnessing their love. Thank you to the author for every character he created, and I will continue to support him! Tororiko's modern writing is also very good. I look forward to seeing you in the future!

I usually go to bed early and stayed up late to watch it. After listening to the first two episodes of the radio drama, I immediately looked for the original text. Now I have registered a Jinjiang account and paid the money. It's really good!!!
I finally finished watching "Lenghua", burned incense, took a bath, and then started writing a drama review. This is the fifth Chang Ning Dada novel I have read. At first, I didn't read it right away because of some of the modern chapters. Later, with the strong support from the sisters (?), I suppressed the urge to watch "Daughter Show". I read "Leng Hua" first, okay, and then after finishing it... I had a lot of mixed feelings... Let me share it with you. 1. If we didn't accompany each other day and night, we wouldn't doubt the flowers in our dreams and the full moon. Past lives and present lives have always been created as a dream theme in many stories from ancient to modern times. The purpose is naturally to make up for regrets and fulfill wishes. Generally speaking, in the early stage, this kind of subject will present all the stories of the past life in front of you at once, and then narrate them in a straightforward manner, so that everyone can understand the entanglements between people in the past life, the direction of destiny, and the regrets of the past life in the end. It will let everyone start to have feelings for the characters in the past life to a certain point before starting to write the story of the present life. This can make everyone care about the fate of the characters and give everyone a qualitative expectation for the subsequent stories. The article "Lenghua" is written in a narrative technique that intersperses the past and present lives. It relies on dreams to reveal the story of Huanxi and Yingsheng bit by bit. It uses a more echoing and buried way to show it. After each stage of the story, the protagonist will wake up and return to the present to react and act in a timely manner on the memory of the previous life. This function makes the plot more interesting. Kanade has a good grasp of it, designing suspense and foreshadowing, not letting the plot rush too fast, and also having a mixture of sweetness and sadness (hahaha), and then appropriately revealing clue information through modern known situations, and also burying follow-up clues well. Maybe because of the advantages of past and present themes and narrative techniques, in terms of the overall structure, I personally think it is better than Zhezhihong, or even slightly higher than Shi Shuo. Then let's talk about the plot. The protagonist Xi Huan opens up his memories of past lives through an interview in an ancient tomb at a construction site and a sudden encounter with Mu Sheng, and shows us the fate of a thousand years ago in the form of a dream. Huanxi married into the Shen Mansion with Miss Bai as a dowry maid, but Miss Bai passed away shortly after giving birth to Yingsheng. Before she died, Miss Bai asked Huanxi to take care of Yingsheng. From this moment on, the fate of the two of them seemed to be destined for this life. Because of her mother's death, Yingsheng lacked maternal love since she was a child. It can be said that most of her character development, knowledge education and personality concepts came from Huanxi. In a certain way, Huanxi has become equivalent to the role of a mother. But why didn't Huanxi take root in Yingsheng's heart as a mother in the end? Perhaps because of her identity, Huanxi, as a maid, could not really give to Yingsheng like her mother in some aspects. However, because of Huanxi and Yingsheng's daily relationship and care, Yingsheng developed feelings of attachment. Moreover, because of her protection and love, Yingsheng never thought that she was a maid in her heart. Also because of their status, Yingsheng is not similar to a "daughter" in Huanxi's heart, but more like a partner who wants to accompany her for life. Because of this, the two parties have different emotions and status in each other's hearts. 2. When the spring water dries up and the fallen flowers appear, I will grow old by your side. Huanxi was already fifteen years old when Yingsheng was born. From an ancient perspective, Huanxi was already an adult when Yingsheng was born. The age difference between the two has also become a major highlight and argument of the show. When the age gap between two people widens, it means a very important issue, that is, issues of life experience and concepts. Huanxi knows that he has a humble status, and at the same time he is older than Yingsheng. In addition, they are both women. From class, age, and gender, an invisible and unethical gap is formed to hinder each other. Huanxi naturally understands the hardships and difficulties, so She has been restrained and forbearing, and even scolded herself for being ridiculous in her heart, firstly because of the concept of human ethics in her heart, and secondly because of the protection of Yingsheng; however, Yingsheng has no concept or understanding of this. She just follows her inner thoughts to like someone. She did not understand the concept of human ethics at the beginning. Even if she understood it later, she never changed her mind. One had no time to chase, the other had no time to wait; one struggled to catch up, and the other could not escape. However, some things cannot be avoided after all. People cannot survive against their own will. However, without the awareness and courage to abandon everything for each other, the two of them will not be able to get what they want in the end. Huanxi's silence also reflects her actions. She has always used her silent dedication and companionship to build inner tenderness for Yingsheng. The article also reflects many tacit little habits and details between the two. It is interesting and tender. Even if they don't say it, they can understand each other's meaning. "Promise me, I will try to grow faster and you will age slower." This sentence contains so much helplessness about reality but also retains so much hope for good things - even so, so what? I would like to spend my whole life accompanying you and always be by your side. At the end of the ancient chapter, the twilight Huanxi passed away peacefully in front of Yingsheng's tomb. It can be considered that they stayed together for the rest of their lives... 3. People are haggard but have no regrets and are willing to burn into the fire and turn into ashes. Another aspect of this article that moved me very much is that in the end, the two of them unanimously chose to sacrifice themselves for each other's escape and face everything alone. The regret of not being able to stay together, the pain of not being able to see each other again, can be exchanged for the other person's peace, and finally he can rest in peace. This kind of selfless selfishness is a decision made without hesitation after experiencing many inner struggles. But Huanxi never expected that Yingsheng had a longer and deeper plan than she did. Whenever I see Huan Xi pinching the blood scabs over and over again, and kowtowing again and again, I feel an indescribable sourness and heartache, but the two of them are so willing and look forward to death. Is it worth it? It's all worth it in each other's eyes. If you can choose, why don't you want to stay together? In this way, try your best to do what you can in the end for the other person. "In the next life, I am willing to spend a lifetime of silence in exchange for you calling me my wife for half of my life..." "If that doesn't work, I am willing to practice Buddhism in another life so that we can meet in the next life." The two made their own prayers for each other, willing to use their own sacrifices in exchange for Chang'an in this life, the next life, and every life after life. One day, we can see each other again. 4. What does it mean that the past is like smoke? Don't admit that everything is disillusioned. Fortunately, Xi Huan has never and will never give up on Mu Sheng. Their lifelong entanglement finally leads to their reunion in this life. Now that we are destined to meet again, how can we not seize the opportunity of this life? In her previous life, due to her identity and human relations, she was unable to give Yingsheng her lifelong care, so in this life she must find ways to stay with him forever. Huanxi's avoidance in her previous life does not mean that she does not have the courage to pursue and bear this love. On the contrary, she and Yingsheng both have that persistence and courage. When I saw her desperate to go to the cave to rescue Mu Sheng, and use her sincerity to convince her mother and Mu Dong, the respect and tenderness they showed each other was really gratifying and heartbreaking. They have not experienced the ups and downs and hardships of the previous life, and cannot personally understand the weight of this feeling. At the same time, I can understand it very well. As mentioned in the article, they insisted on their ideas, and Xi Huan insisted on his own. No one is wrong, but everyone has the right to choose their own life. What about gender, what about the world? Why do they choose the path I should take for me? As long as I can face my own heart, as long as I have a clear conscience and no regrets. I believe they are all grateful that the other person found and still chose them, and they will definitely live up to their lovesickness in this life. Thanks to Chang Ning for this good story, which allowed me to see more possibilities and more thoughts. The obsession of two people has enabled their reunion in the next life. This happiness is hard-won and even more cherished. Even though life has countless hardships, there will also be regrets and disillusionment, but that is not all of life. As long as we have our own persistence and our own encouragement, we will all have hope. One thought in a lifetime, one thought for one person. Xia Lianqing 2020.02.25
