"This one is funny and sweet. You'll love the trust and love this couple builds. Both lead characters are smart but pretend to be dumb to survive. Together they are brilliant. Their chemistry is natural, probably because they were happily married in real life while filming this. The side characters are very well done. This slice of life drama is pure perfection. There are very few dramas like it and none do it this good. "

"Omg I’ve lost count how many times I rewatched this. Zhao liying did a amazing job playing Ming lan. And somehow even though it’s like 73 episodes I didn’t lose interest at all."

"I absolutely love this show!! It is kinda slow at the beginning, which I know some people don’t like but it really helps build the characters background. It is really wonderful show with strong female characters and a beautiful story building."

"Well it’s hard to choose a favorite since I’ve watched so many but if you like Chinese dramas why don’t you try watching Le Coup De Foudre or Go Ahead. They aren’t historical dramas but it’s always fun to try new genres!"
