As a lover of historical dramas, I am always thirsty for contemporary dramas that relate to Chinese culture that is more than the industrialized business sector. I think I watched too much Li Ziqi when she was broadcasting. This drama is well written, has an intense and compelling storyline, and is addictive. Rural village life is portrayed in-depth and in the early episodes important but not pleasant cultural traditions are shared. Also, rural traditions that are almost feudalist and almost remind me of plantation-type lifestyles are revealed and explored. As the drama continues you begin to experience the contrasts of city life versus rural life and how they have intermingled because the next generation is sending their children to schools in cities and their ambitions and values are changing. This drama is worth every viewing minute.
