Fragrance Filling the Courtyard

Because some chapters are locked and I cannot subscribe to them all, I will briefly talk about my thoughts after reading it. After reading this story of modern women returning to ancient times, I can't help but wonder what would happen to women who traveled back in time if the author didn't cheat. First of all, if she is not a favored legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, she will be abandoned and sold as soon as she is born. A concubine is also a commodity, even inferior to livestock, because Master Wu treats the concubine because he is afraid that they will find a poor son-in-law or poor relative, so he simply throws them away and locks them up far away. Or give it away as a tool and give it to your legitimate daughter. And even the favored legitimate daughter (the heroine in the book) immediately becomes the property of a man after she gets married. Her talent, her thoughts, and her personality were immediately destroyed. She can only survive as a toy of the male protagonist, and the male protagonist can do whatever he wants to her. Her life has been trapped between four walls since then. The pressure on her is not only the male protagonist, but also the male protagonist's parents, his relatives and elders, etc. The hero's mother is a victim of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but her first reaction when seeing the heroine is to inflict all the sins she suffered on the heroine as "revenge." In this article, the author still lays out a lot of things for the heroine, such as her father who changed her mind after half a lifetime of wandering, her mother who gave birth to three sons and established herself at home, her status as a legitimate daughter, and her sister who is loved by her younger brother, all of which ensure that she has the support of her mother's family. Her own cheating was that she gave birth to three sons. Although her husband had various shortcomings, he was generally clear-minded, had no hidden diseases, no violent tendencies, was able to make money, and took the woman's side in the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Even so. She was still depressed and frightened in the first half of her life, and her parents, brothers, and husband didn't understand why. Because she came through time. She has experienced the free life of women and has seen through the oppression and obliteration of women and even humanity in ancient times. As a victim of patriarchy in modern times, she can still go out to work and earn wages, but in ancient times, she was favored by her parents and could only endure that her husband slept with three women one after another before getting married, and even accepted concubines and children arranged by her elders. There is no royal power, wealth, officialdom struggle, or imperial examination in this story. It simply describes the lives of small landowners and urban businessmen in a very straightforward way, and also describes the strict class barriers on the side. A wealthy small landowner wanted to study, but he couldn't find anyone to teach him how to read (the father of the heroine, Mr. Wu). He wanted to hire a teacher for his child, but he had to rely on the mother's mother's family to hire a reliable teacher. The one he found for his bastard was a liar. Businessmen who do business value profits over separation. If they can't make money at home, they go to the south to do business. They leave their wives at home, forming a deformed family structure (focusing on the second son and exploiting the eldest son). The eldest son doesn't want to endure it, so he makes excuses for his father to go to the south and not come back, leaving his wife and children to be bullied. After the third son briefly separated from the family for decades, he moved back to be part of the family, probably out of guilt (or perhaps more because of livelihood issues). In a large family, the wife is just a tool they use to give birth to children, but they have a brand awareness of this tool. As long as the main wife's children are born, other concubines or girls give birth to substandard products. They don't recognize them, or even don't want them. Those who fantasize about traveling through time and being servants can also save it. Any person can be tied up and sold as long as he sells himself. There are also stories in books about brothel girls who stunning young men, and there are also many who gave birth to children, only to be thrown away or sold. Even those who have stayed in a brothel are original sins and will never be innocent for the rest of their lives. As for the cruelty of the official road, the article also pointed out in a subtle way that even for Mr. Wu's family, which owned hundreds or even thousands of acres of land, a county magistrate could make his family wipe out. As for the heroine's mother's natal family, they have been hiding in the countryside for generations because of officialdom battles. This article could be very long. Chapter 249 is not enough to read. Even though the article was written ten years ago, it still looks out of date today. That's what classics are. (Of course, it's still very depressing to watch. I always think about the heroine getting up, slapping her, quarreling and scolding her back! The best part of hand-tearing, which is so popular nowadays, is not included in the article)

After reading the full text, the most impressive part is the part where the protagonist is imprisoned in the ancestral hall. It looked like the second sister was in despair waiting to be divorced, but in fact Du Mei was happy. She was the most desperate the moment Duan Haofang appeared, and Du Mei disappeared. The author is very good. Duan Haofang seemed to me like a savior when he was writing it. Later, when Du Mei appeared, it was like thunder. Looking back at the previous image of the second master, which overlaps with the previous image, it is not the case at all, and it is not a good memory. The appearance of this man was the beginning of the second sister's misfortune. To Du Mei, Duan Haofang here is a collection of feudal society. Feudal society is cannibalistic. The Wu family can be said to be the perfect parents in this era. But even so, so what if the perfectly wealthy Wu couple, who loved their second sister, married her second sister to their chosen son-in-law. Du Mei, a patriarchal family who was biased in her previous life, is also a human being and is treated as an adult. Here, the second sister took half her life to realize that her husband realized, oh, this is actually a person. The whole article emphasizes that it is actually quite interesting that the second sister is blessed. She will be blessed throughout her life, but she will be unfortunate throughout her life. In the full text, all women are so miserable. Death to the evil old society! PS Feng family - Wu family - Duan family, from top to bottom, the family status of marrying into is getting worse and worse. I feel like the author wrote it this way on purpose, which is wonderful. To be sincerely good for your daughter is to marry into another family that is worse than your own, because the married daughter will throw water away, haha, it's quite ironic.

Check it out, I've been reading Da Da Da Jiang Ji six or seven years ago. I was stunned when I saw the end of this article and didn't dare to read it. Because I've seen Qing Chuan, I know the power of Da Da Da's writing. The writing of this article is a bit straightforward, and overall it is still not as good as Qingchuan, but it is still considered a debut novel, and it can be seen that it is very spiritual. There is a world in your mind. My reaction after reading it was not depression or anger, but numbness. It feels a bit like watching Layla. U of T's definition of time travel is always more avant-garde. Sometimes you think that you can just die and just jump out of this world, go to a place where no one knows you, and time travel. But in the end, you find that it is the modern life that seems to be the most beautiful. This article is very clear about feudal society and patriarchal oppression, but I haven't noticed it yet from the comments. The detail of the change in the names of Du Mei and the second sister is too shocking, but it can be seen that the skills are insufficient. Back then, it was not possible to write a more bloody and terrifying story, which was felt in Qingchuan. Alas, after reading this article, I really felt emotional. Only Jiang Ji's world is the most beautiful. Jiang Ji is not a good person. The number of people who perished under her hands is definitely the most among all the heroines in the novel. But Zhenger Ba Jing is a refreshing article. She creates a world she likes in an environment she is more comfortable with. If Qing Chuan and Man Ting Fang are anti-feudal and anti-patriarchal, Jiang Ji is seriously discussing women's rights (these two words can easily lead to radical discussions). Step by step, a woman has gained rights and the opportunity to change the world. This is not a cool article, what is it. Talking about Man Tingfang, in addition to the portrayal of the heroine Du Mei-the second sister, the portrayals of the other wives, maids, concubines, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law make this article even more outstanding. Some people call it "The Little Red Mansion", but I would say this is the "Little Red Mansion". Everyone lives a miserable life, and everyone lives a depressed life. Du Mei is just a little bit more miserable, because she brings the three views and insights of modern society, which allows her to survive, but also allows her to wear herself down, leaving only the symbol of "second sister". The more you dig into it, the more interesting it becomes. It's something I want to write about (some speculations) at this time. That is, if there is no such thing as time travel, how can you tell whether you are living as a free and serious soul, or if you are living in the social role that the entire society has imposed on you by discipline and expectation? In this article, Qingchuan and Leila, because they are completely different worlds, the heroine already has a very sound and independent personality. This process of cutting flesh and bones can be shown to us very intensely. But in a more subtle life, how to deal with the role expectations of your parents, relatives and friends and your own "selfishness" is another very interesting thing. If U of T can have this level to write a new, serious article, that would be great.

I skipped through it, reading the first chapter chapter by chapter, and getting more and more angry as I went to the end. The male protagonist's second son, Pomegranate's child, can't stand watching it! I can understand that the male protagonist is a feudal person in ancient times, and the fourth master next door is also a feudal male protagonist to death! But it is also the male protagonist, and the fourth master at least truly loves Weiwei, and they also truly love each other. What about this male protagonist? I fully suspected that I fell in love with Mr. Wu as his father-in-law and his wife, and I really vomited. The same goes for the heroine. From her aura at the beginning, to the end, she is completely an ancient woman who regards her husband as her guide, obedience and four virtues. So why is she so special in the first few dozen chapters? Although Weiwei is very "tame" from beginning to end, I often read comments saying that she is servile, but her heart has always been free! She loves the fourth master, but she always retains the leeway to retreat to family affection. Where is the second sister? I feel like she loves the male protagonist on the surface of the water, and so does the male protagonist. What they love is not each other at all. A man with some ambition and responsibility and a virtuous and capable ancient woman are the male and female protagonists of this book! I was really pissed off by this pair of male and female protagonists, especially the male protagonist made me sick, and the female protagonist made me sad! The heroine is really just afraid of the eyes of the people around her. Even the people in this whole show live in the eyes of others, for fear of getting a little bit of outsiders' spit! But apart from the fact that the male and female protagonists of this novel made me angry, the writing style is still outstanding. I didn't like reading this kind of novel, but after I clicked on it, I couldn't help but keep reading. I think the most exciting thing about this article is the portrayal of the supporting characters and the description of the miserable working people in ancient times, mainly women. To sum it up in one sentence, it is "so miserable" that women are not individuals at all, they are property. Then the legitimate wife was miserable, the concubine was even worse, and the slaves also died miserably. Although I had known that it was possible to sell servants in ancient times, this was the first time I read a novel that was so real. The endings of the women who were sold were often written out, which was a bit tragic, such as Jing Qi's mother, and some barely had a happy ending, such as Xiangping. It makes people feel the same and feel sad. The author's description of them reminds me that the various eunuchs in Qing Chuan are also lifelike. To this day, I still remember the loyal A Bao, the tenth-level imperial cook Liu Sha Sha, and Su Peisheng, who I don't know how to evaluate. They are all flesh and blood, as can be seen from the large writing style. Although the male and female protagonists of this novel made me angry, every supporting character in it is also on paper, and it is profound. I don't know how much better it is than the soy sauce-like supporting characters in many novels! In those novels, many of the protagonists are superficial and just characters. I really love the author's writing style in depicting the characters! Except for the male and female protagonists of this novel, there really are no outstanding points created by the two of them. One night. In addition, some children on the Internet should really read this novel and feel the darkness of ancient society and the absolute trampling on personal self-esteem. The reason why I was so angry is that although I tried not to bring the second sister into it, the grievances the male protagonist caused to the second sister were inevitably trampled on me. I know it's wrong to read ancient novels from a modern perspective. This is my problem, but I'm so angry, so I didn't give it a single negative mark. I still love Da Da Da. Qingchuan Daily is still my favorite. Although I read the pirated version at the time, because I bought more than 500 chapters at once, it is still a bit stressful for me as a student now, but I will definitely order all of them. I'm sorry, I read the pirated version of Qingchuan. I will make up for everything I have read as soon as possible, as evidenced by this comment. Finally, I would like to thank you for taking us on a wonderful journey through words.

Realism Class background of rural small landowners and urban businessmen Taking the life trajectory of a landowner girl with good conditions as the main line, it depicts the lives of various women in that background.

When I read this article 11 years later, I thought it was true. In the middle of the movie, I also felt that because the male protagonist had a child outside the family, I only knew how to use the female protagonist and her family. I couldn't stand the lack of love between the male and female protagonists. But maybe as I get older, I realize that there may be no love in married life. What's more, in ancient times, writing about house fighting in college is really a masterpiece. I feel that I have a deeper understanding of the family relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

I read it once many years ago. I felt that there were too many things that had nothing to do with the male and female protagonists, so I didn't want to read it. Years later because of the book shortage, I came back to read it. I found that DaDa is really strong. Everyone is the protagonist. No matter how small the supporting characters are, DaDa tries to give them a good ending. As I read it, I felt that everyone in the article came to life. What is in DaDa's head? Are there multiple universes? Later I learned that this was Da Da's debut novel? It's so powerful. I think I will come back to read it again many years later when I am short of books again. I have read every work of DaDa many times. As I grow older, I have a different feeling every time I read it. Thank you to the author for writing so many good books.

Women in ancient times were very miserable. It was a cannibalistic society. Now you don't have to get married if you want. In the past, you couldn't live without getting married. It's not that you don't want to be independent, but you can't live. I only talk about etiquette here, not many clans, which makes people feel depressed. The heroine only feels relieved when she knows that the hero is a polite person and is not afraid of being divorced. No woman in this article is happy. Regardless of whether she has money or not, just look at which one is worse, there is no dignity, just see if she can survive.

This article made my hair stand on end. I thought of Dream of Red Mansions and also of The Plum in the Golden Vase. They were all about superficial scenery, they were all about "the whole garden is full of fragrance but not a single fragrance", they were all about struggle, and they were all about the despair of boiling frogs in warm water without any end. I am afraid that the time-traveling point of the heroine is to make it easier for readers to understand. Otherwise, just like the second sister cannot understand how to be a virtuous wife, we cannot understand the thoughts of a pure ancient heroine - it is difficult for people to transcend the times. The final arrangement seems to be a mercy.

This is actually an article from 11 years ago! ! Oh my gosh! The writing is very, very good, and the writing is profound, and I was drawn in immediately. It's really depressing and vividly expresses the cannibalism of feudal society. I have to slow down for a while before reading a section. When I watch half of it, I always get involved with a certain character in it. How can I live like this? For example, Fang Yun and Yu Zhen have a useless and vicious husband, a mother-in-law at the top, and a hopeless child at the bottom. Not to mention that they are very depressed in this family. They say boring things every day, do repetitive things, and have almost no sex life. He even said that as long as no one comes to cause trouble, it will be a good day. I still eat green vegetables and tofu every day, just because my parents are harsh. When I was watching, I even thought, living this day is just a day of torture, it would be better to just crash to death. . But if I were in such a situation, it's hard to say whether I would commit suicide or struggle to survive.
