This novel's blurb:
Xie Huayan was born into a distinguished family, blessed with both beauty and talent. From childhood, she was the darling of the heavens. She had thought her life would be a splendid one, filled with wealth and glory, but she discovered that as a woman in this era, she faced too many hardships and constraints.
Her first love and husband, her parents-in-law and sisters-in-law, concubines and children... The everyday concerns of food, clothing, and household necessities intertwined with the rise and fall of the nation. Swept along by the surging tides of the times, even a noblewoman from a distinguished family was merely one among countless people struggling to get by.
Reader's guide:
1. Though the heroine is clever, she's still only a fifteen-year-old girl, and she'll take a few wrong turns at first. Please be patient with her (but I won't write her as a silly, naive sweetheart... I couldn't bear to, haha).
2. Strictly speaking, this novel has no male lead. It's mainly about the heroine's growth, with very little romance.
3. The heroine's husband has multiple wives and concubines.
4. The dynasty is fictional. Please don't nitpick the historical details.
5. This isn't sweet or feel-good. The author wants to tell the story of the rise and fall of a feudal family against the backdrop of a nation's fortunes. Many characters, good and bad alike, may meet tragic ends, and many will be killed off.
6. If you drop the novel, there's no need to tell me. Thank you.
7. This novel has 30% anti-piracy protection, with a six-hour delay. If you have not subscribed to at least 30% of the novel, you'll see protected chapters. They'll return to normal after six hours.
Cloud-Pinned Hairpin:
Everyone says that the ninth young lady of the Gu family belongs among the refined pursuits of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, and flowers, and should have nothing to do with the mundane necessities of daily life.
Gu Zhanyun, born into a family of scholars, had delicate features and clear, misty eyes. She was among the finest of the noble young ladies, though not the most outstanding. What was truly remarkable was her almost ethereal air, untouched by worldly concerns, and her graceful, unhurried manner.
A young man in a yellow robe, his hair tied in a high ponytail, sat atop her garden wall. Bracing both hands on its edge, he watched her with a grin and said, "A fairy like you ought to be enshrined in a mountain temple, with incense offered three times a day. Why would you eat crystal lotus cakes?"
Gu Zhanyun: ...
Does Young Master Xiao want to climb onto the roof and tear up the tiles again, after just three days without a beating? [smile]
A spirited young man × an ethereal little fairy
Sweet childhood friends romance, light and easygoing. The heroine is in charge of eating, drinking, having fun, and admiring flowers and scenery. The hero is in charge of spoiling his wife.
Theme:
This Miss Lu is also a divine person. Her sister's death was so tragic, which did not prevent her from secretly communicating with her brother-in-law's family. Not too disgusting either.
Although it is indeed unacceptable to have three wives and four concubines from the perspective of modern people, I still hope to be more realistic when writing ancient poems. After all, in ancient times, only a few high-ranking families had one pair for their whole life. It's a pity that the old sayings are all about love to death, with the male protagonist guarding the female protagonist like a jade, etc. I really dislike this kind of Mary Suuwen.
I stayed up late to finish watching "The Legend" and felt very complicated. I had always read sweet articles before. I was attracted by the writing, so I read it, and ended up reading the whole book. At the beginning, what Lu did made me have some expectations for him and ignored the introduction. However, he later became disheartened after he fell in love with Hu and got along with Du. Then I thought that this is the charm of this article, it is a true portrayal of women getting married in ancient times. The three wives and four concubines who handle common affairs and take care of their husbands are "gentle and considerate". The biggest highlight of Xie is that she was not completely immersed in Lu's sweet words because of the rejection of "I am a witch". Later, even if the witch came to her, she remained unmoved, and she finally had the last laugh in the palace. At the end, I had to admire Sui Da's writing skills. I hope you will continue to write better articles, and I wish you success!
This Madam Hou is really hard to figure out!
I don't believe this is not designed, tsk tsk tsk
I was heartbroken after reading the copy, and I was heartbroken after reading the comments.
As an old saying, I can actually understand that the male protagonist has a concubine, but this prince is too lustful to make him faint, right? He knew clearly that the Hou family could not afford to lose this person, and that he was just starting out and needed help from his wife's family, and then he so confidently asked his wife to help him arrange a prostitute?
This is so well written by a magical author
I like it so much! I hope you can continue to try writing with larger frameworks in the future, come on!?(?^O^?)?
Good looking, not taking the usual path
