Dream of the Red Chamber: Master Peng, I Refuse to Be a Sucker

So arrogant! Do you have any official rank? Are you a master of innate martial arts? Are you related to royalty? Are you incredibly wealthy? You're nothing but stubbornness? Are you a duck?

Why are there always these scenes of people trying to steal Qin Keqing?

They're all veteran authors, how come they have no ambition at all? They only update two chapters a day, and just when you start to get into it, it's over. Two chapters a day is like scratching the surface, and you're afraid of letting it die if you keep reading, but it's neither good nor bad.

Isn't this the same old plot of "Dream of the Red Chamber" saving the day?

Jiang Jiang is here! Author, keep up the good work! Here's a treat for you: Want Want Little Buns, Coca-Cola, 7UP, Mirinda, lollipops, and a can of pineapple beer, hehehe—

I was really enjoying it, how could it just end like that...?

Why haven't you updated? Did your pet die?

It's strange, is there something wrong with Qin Keqing? Theoretically, she's the most beautiful character, and her timing and age are perfect. Why would they leave her for the Ningguo Mansion? Or have they been too influenced by Cao Cao's works? A matriarch from a less powerful, scholarly family is also the most suitable choice—easy to portray and fits the courtyard setting perfectly. (The male lead is definitely going to settle for the Ningguo Mansion; he'll be there once he moves in.)

Haha, you can't continue writing after taking down Qin Keqing, huh? If you don't write about the Jia family in *Dream of the Red Chamber*, there's not much material to write about. You should write about the social status of the two main households; otherwise, you can't really get involved in the Jia family's story.

(Ai) Your perspective is very insightful, touching upon a core and controversial direction in the study of *Dream of the Red Chamber*. Combining Qin Keqing's background as an "adopted daughter of the orphanage," her highly stylized room furnishings, and her extravagant funeral that defies common sense, indeed constitutes a hidden narrative pointing to "unconventional identity and function."
