Entertaining, very funny, especially hilarious. However, the deeply ingrained feudal and realistic elements are hard to shake off. With four daughters, each with a different personality and situation, the four sons-in-law are inevitably ranked and categorized. Concealed beneath the facade of a grand and happy family reunion is a cruel reality. The actors put in great effort to bring humor, but there are certain aspects that simply cannot be logically reconciled. Trying to make sense of it feels like chewing glass, leading to inevitable pain.

You can always trust Liu Lin's acting skills, just like how you can trust that no matter if you're hungry or not, coming home to see your mom's perfectly cooked tomato and scrambled eggs on the table, you can't wait to sit down and finish a bowl of rice, eagerly asking for another bowl to mix with the rice. It's comforting, homely, and familiar. I love the lively atmosphere in this drama, it's the perfect lunchtime entertainment.

After "Wulin Outlaws" and "Dragon Gate Inn," it's been a while since I've watched a pure historical comedy. In the first two episodes, Teacher Liu Lin and Xiao La rely on their superb acting skills to set a humorous and witty tone for the entire drama. The intertwining and collision of ancient settings and modern storylines bring genuine laughter to the viewers. That's probably the charm of comedy. I really enjoyed the speech at the premiere by the screenwriter, where he emphasized that everything in the creation is grounded in real life, making the characters vivid and three-dimensional, and the events realistic without being exaggerated. Family, friendship, and love drive the plot development from various emotional angles, allowing us to experience and contemplate our ordinary lives amidst laughter. Highly recommended!

This drama is truly fantastic! It's both immersive and incredibly funny. It feels like witnessing amusing things happening to people around you, and it's not filled with cliché jokes. It's suitable for the whole family to watch together, without any awkward moments. Every comedic element comes unexpectedly, keeping you entertained. It seems like I won't have a shortage of shows to watch during the National Day holiday. Especially, Liu Lin's acting in the series is the icing on the cake. It's a rare gem that can be enjoyed by the whole family, and I highly recommend it with a five-star rating!

This drama saves me from unhappy TV series. The feeling of Liu Lin playing the role of a matchmaker in the blind date corner is so genuine. The four daughters have distinctive personalities, and the ancient comedy incorporates some thought-provoking real-life family matters. Chui Na Li Sha's few minutes of screen time earn plenty of laughter. The exclusive BGM design for Lu Bu Ping is excellent.

It's a light-hearted and hilarious family-friendly period comedy with frequent and natural humor. There are no awkward plotlines or lousy acting that would make people uncomfortable. I had the privilege of attending an early screening of the first two episodes, and those two episodes were purely meant for laughter. Chui Na Li Sha's guest appearance in the beginning was also delightful. Liu Lin, the protagonist and teacher, plays the role of the eldest lady in another version, and the four daughters have different personalities. I'm looking forward to watching it with my mom during the National Day holiday!

After watching this drama, I have decided that I will never watch family comedies for the rest of my life. It claims to be a comedy but presents such shallow and clichéd family reunion themes. Peilan's character represents the quintessential housewife within the family system, a devoted and selfless nanny. When the man of the house, who is both a father and a husband, passes away, the power dynamics within the family shift to Madam Chun. Madam Chun is no longer just a wife; she seeks to find a "second wife" within the family, and that role falls upon Peilan. Her mother and her sisters are united in oppressing her "husband." However, at the same time, this character is portrayed as willingly accepting her role, which is essentially that of a submissive and blessed wife. I hope this family stops disgusting and nauseating me, and I wish they would stop disgusting themselves as well.

I really wanted to watch a comedy, but it's really hard to love this family. They are all selfish and cunning, and I can't feel any humor or warmth at all. Previously, Guo Furong also worked at Tongfu Inn, where Tong the shopkeeper seemed exploitative on the surface, but they actually had a lot of love. In this family, I really sense a lack of humanity, as they treat others as subordinates. Not only can't they show any human touch towards the other characters in the drama, but even within the family, their interactions lack human warmth. It feels forced, and the quality of the script is very poor. It's just an awkward and forced development.

It exceeded expectations and was quite enjoyable to watch. The first episode was average, but from the second episode onwards, it became really funny. The actors and the screenwriter were both good. Liu Lin goes without saying, Lame Mu and Han Yun Yun both have a great sense of comedy. Surprisingly, Ren Hao did a decent job too. Wu Jia Yi and Li Jia Qi were relatively average, and Yang Hao Yu didn't have much room to shine. Gu Zi Cheng had a well-designed character and appearance, Chang Long performed well, but the unfamiliar male supporting actor was both unattractive and lacking in talent. The historical setting is just a shell, but the core is quite modern. Whether it's satire or parody, as long as it's funny, it works. The costume and makeup are average, you can tell they didn't have a lot of budget, but it doesn't affect the viewing experience. It became less funny later on, and some plot points were a bit far-fetched, but the more I watched, the more I grew fond of this family. The ending was heartwarming, and I hope they can make a sequel.

Well, this is a typical costume drama that perfectly meets the censorship standards. It has seasoned actors and fresh faces, focuses on marriage and relationships, and uses comedic techniques to portray a cheerful and harmonious atmosphere, leading to a peaceful ending. However, overall, it lacks substantial content. After watching dozens of episodes, it feels like nothing has been watched at all. It follows a predictable formula and aligns perfectly with the mainstream theme of pressuring marriage and childbirth, without being offensive. It caters to the desires of young girls who believe they have nothing to offer except for kindness and luck in stumbling upon a wealthy husband as if it were an electronic sedative. Just enjoy it for entertainment purposes, and don't take it seriously at all.

I was initially finding some parts funny, but as I watched the second episode, I suddenly couldn't laugh anymore. Instead, I felt that the plot was not aligned with my values. It seemed to give prominence to those who held twisted and greedy beliefs, reinforcing the idea that the unfortunate must have some detestable qualities.
When the leader is corrupt, the followers become crooked too. Madam Chun shamelessly refuses to repay borrowed money, the eldest son is idle and smooth-tongued, the second son is genuinely foolish and clueless about repaying kindness, and even the fourth daughter, despite being a woman, behaves like a hooligan. Only the third daughter in the Chun family has integrity and a sense of propriety, but her righteousness is overshadowed by the wrongdoings of others.
The plot is too biased...

This drama is still somewhat watchable now! However, as a comedy, the flaws in the character setups can significantly diminish the enjoyment if there is no growth in later episodes.
In our traditional comedies, it's better to have a happy and harmonious ending, and we don't usually establish a character who is constantly bullied and mistreated for the sake of comedic contrast.
To be honest, it might be amusing once or twice, but if it continues like this, the audience will feel sympathy rather than laughter, and it becomes difficult to find it funny anymore.
If fans insist and say, "Oh, such people are everywhere in real life, me, my friends, my second uncle's son-in-law's cousin, they are all like that!"
I don't deny that. However, listening to their stories doesn't make me laugh or bring me joy.
Comedy can be appropriately exaggerated, but it shouldn't be excessive!

A modern drama disguised in historical costume. It's visually appealing, but it feels rigid and overly formulaic, as if the script was written strictly following textbook techniques, resulting in unnatural dialogue. The humor feels forced, making it difficult to find the funny moments amusing. Even after watching the entire series, I couldn't find much to laugh about. The final episode felt chaotic, as if they suddenly condensed ten episodes into one. The plot was running away like a wild wolf, with haphazard transitions and a lack of coherence.

Finished watching "Yu." It's a lighthearted comedy with a focus on humor and a touch of exaggeration, yet it remains relatable and realistic.
It combines quirky daily life with the realities of living, but what's more important is the harmonious and beautiful family dynamics. They rely on each other, take care of one another, laugh together, and play around together. There are disagreements, but the love for their family never wavers. There are plenty of heartwarming moments throughout the series.
The story mainly revolves around a hardworking mother who has raised her children on her own, and her concerns about her four daughters' marriages serve as the backdrop for the plot.

To be honest, I was quite moved by it in the end. I understand that its storyline is imaginative, but its emotional core remains timeless. Being able to portray a family well is what truly touches me. The seemingly ordinary account of events turned out to be quite moving. Additionally, I really like the acting of Shi Zi and Teng Yun. They are exaggerated but also hilarious.

Laughing out loud, it's a lighthearted and humorous drama. I love how the characters, who may not be likable at first, become more lovable as the story progresses. From the eldest lady, second sister, third sister, fourth sister, martial uncle, eldest brother, Persimmon, Master Li, to Shen Congyan, I can't help but feel a strong fondness for them as the story unfolds.
If you delve deep into the plot, there will be many inconsistencies, but so what? I just want to watch something that brings me joy.

Despite some flaws, especially the storyline of Si Huang Zi and Ke Ling, I feel that the male characters paired with the four female leads were too high-status and unrealistic. Personally, I think it would be better if all four husbands were ordinary people. The script falls short when it comes to writing romantic scenes. However, the imperfections don't overshadow its charm. It's a enjoyable comedy, and the production design is truly surprising! I hope there will be more seasons. In the past, China had many sitcoms, but now there are fewer and fewer high-quality comedies, which is a great pity! Life is already tough enough; I really don't want to watch tragic dramas!

The first half of the sitcom is not enjoyable. The female lead is portrayed as someone who constantly suffers and selflessly serves others. It's never-ending, being treated as a family member or a servant, both in speech and in action.
Whether it's family members casually disregarding her or taking her for granted, is it okay to treat her so casually in daily life? Pretending to celebrate her birthday, engaging in fake family social interactions, and then giving her a gift and a few words like "I know and appreciate your efforts, your hardships" to create a sense of family happiness?
Putting all her energy into taking care of others means she can't hear her own voice. When will she be able to be herself? Little do they know, the little money she risks her life to save can easily flow into the hands of other family members, filling the irony to the brim. If the female lead is only lacking knowledge, then why is she the only one who hasn't truly received an education, while others in the family have?
The series has concluded, and as expected, there is a false accusation against a woman. Without any surprise, all the female protagonists immediately stand by the perfectly crafted male mentor, without a trace of doubt. And this aunt, who has no prior grudges or grievances with the female leads, immediately says things like, "With your qualities, how could the mentor like you? " Their family consists of women who have experienced varying degrees of societal prejudice, so why is there no empathy whatsoever?

It started off quite interesting, but can we please avoid throwing in random lousy values in sitcoms? Either tell the values properly or don't suddenly introduce class differences.

The first two episodes were a bit flat because they were still building up momentum, and the humor didn't quite hit the mark yet. But I believe Liu Lin and Yang Hao Yu will be fine. However, I just can't continue watching. Actually, the lines in this spicy drama are not up to par and feel somewhat out of place. And that... crossover male actor who isn't even considered a big influencer is really not doing well. From his delivery of lines to his Mandarin proficiency, it's hard to put into words. It's very jarring and creates a strong sense of dissonance, even the background music for household chores takes me out of the scene within minutes.

It had laughter and tears, with a heartwarming atmosphere throughout. As the story progressed, it became more like a sitcom, but the ending was also quite thought-provoking. At first, I thought Lu Bu Ping was too much of a naive pretty boy, and Shen Wang Yan seemed too forced... But the more I watched, the more I felt that everything blended together perfectly. They didn't force Ban Xia into a relationship, as she had her own ideals. They didn't make Ah Si neglect his duties for love, but Ling finally grew up. Jin Rong and Shi Zi didn't end up together, but Li Teng Yun married the celestial princess. There wasn't a clichéd comedy-style happily-ever-after for everyone, yet everything seemed perfect. Although at some point, I wondered if all four sisters would get married at the same time. Honestly, the world is so twisted, and watching more of these kinds of dramas is beneficial for mental well-being.

I can't get enough of this kind of drama! After watching it, I feel incredibly refreshed. It's such a stress-reliever! Adding on: The later episodes had a mix of both hilarious and touching moments.

The comedy mixed with realism and tragedy is already being filmed in a very funny way. The storyline becomes very captivating in the later episodes. Additionally, Lu Bu Ping's character is too realistically portrayed, both timid and confident, but real-life men are not as handsome as him. The character development for the older sister is very rich. At first, I thought she was a materialistic woman, but in the later episodes, her charm is revealed, and I really like the older sister.
As for the other sisters, in the early stages, I felt that Peilan was sacrificing too much of her personality and constantly being influenced by her sisters and mother. But as the story progressed, I gradually accepted it. In short, this drama is worth watching.

The historical comedy is of excellent quality, with frequent humor that flows naturally without feeling forced. It breaks away from the common practice in Chinese dramas where handsome men and beautiful women are the main leads. Although the female lead is not conventionally pretty, she portrays a kind, hardworking, loving, and tolerant girl very well, showcasing a different kind of beauty.

A happy, joyful, and fulfilling family that brings warmth and peace. I really like this adorable and kind-hearted family with a playful nature. Shi Zi, Li Teng, and Yun are all adorable.
Lu Bu Ping is adorable too, and the master's disciple is adorable. Shen Wang Yan may not be good-looking, but his comedic acting is excellent. Chun Ban Xia is also a great comedian.
The entire cast delivers outstanding performances, and each character is well-developed and three-dimensional. This drama is very healing.
It had laughter and tears, with a heartwarming atmosphere throughout. As the story progressed, it became more like a sitcom, but the ending was also quite thought-provoking. At first, I thought Lu Bu Ping was too much of a naive pretty boy, and Shen Wang Yan seemed too forced...
But the more I watched, the more I felt that everything blended together perfectly. They didn't force Ban Xia into a relationship, as she had her own ideals. They didn't make Ah Si neglect his duties for love, but Ling finally grew up.
Jin Rong and Shi Zi didn't end up together, but Li Teng Yun married the celestial princess. There wasn't a clichéd comedy-style happily-ever-after for everyone, yet everything seemed perfect. Although at some point, I wondered if all four sisters would get married at the same time.
Honestly, the world is so twisted, and watching more of these kinds of dramas is beneficial for mental well-being.
Four daughters, one caught the prince's attention, one caught Shi Zi's attention, and one caught the son of the martial arts alliance leader's attention... And yet, this family of five women does nothing and relies solely on a middle-aged uncle who secretly loves their mother and works as a doctor to support them...
At times, it becomes drawn-out and boring.
It feels like the funniest comedy I've watched this year! Oh my goodness! How can a comedy film be this hilarious? I laughed so hard that my abs hurt! Of course, combining it with the barrage comments enhances the comedic effect even more! In Episode 17, the master was wrapped up like a mummy, and many people were commenting, "Isn't that Ye Seventeen?
" It was so funny that I couldn't stop laughing! I can't get enough of this kind of drama! After watching it, I feel incredibly refreshed. It's such a stress-reliever! Adding on: The later episodes had a mix of both hilarious and touching moments.
After finishing the last episode, I surprisingly felt a bit reluctant to say goodbye.
As the story progresses, it's becoming more enjoyable, and I increasingly want to be friends with this whole bunch. Xiao La is an indispensable character in "Tao Hua Wu," but her acting in this drama is a letdown.
I'm growing fonder of the eldest sister, and Ban Xia is also adorable. I've only heard of Ren Hao's name before, but in this role, he seems well-suited for the comedic rhythm.
In "I Don't Want to Be Friends," Xiao Gu still looks so young, even after three years have passed.
It's so good, isn't it? Finally, we get to see a historical comedy that is funny, touching, warm, and authentic. Moreover, the character development for each person is very well-rounded, and the storyline is incredibly engaging.
It's a refreshing change from the typical intense love dramas, as it portrays the bickering and heartwarming moments of a family. I love it, I really do.
The comedy mixed with realism and tragedy is already being filmed in a very funny way. The storyline becomes very captivating in the later episodes. Additionally, Lu Bu Ping's character is too realistically portrayed, both timid and confident, but real-life men are not as handsome as him.
The character development for the older sister is very rich. At first, I thought she was a materialistic woman, but in the later episodes, her charm is revealed, and I really like the older sister.
As for the other sisters, in the early stages, I felt that Peilan was sacrificing too much of her personality and constantly being influenced by her sisters and mother. But as the story progressed, I gradually accepted it.
In short, this drama is worth watching.
The historical comedy is of excellent quality, with frequent humor that flows naturally without feeling forced. It breaks away from the common practice in Chinese dramas where handsome men and beautiful women are the main leads. Although the female lead is not conventionally pretty, she portrays a kind, hardworking, loving, and tolerant girl very well, showcasing a different kind of beauty.
The series doesn't rely on popular stars or big names, but every actor displays great acting skills. The drama is both light-hearted and full of familial love, and I'm really looking forward to the second season!
Please give me a dozen of these high-quality electronic pickled vegetables. Lu Bu Ping's acting can still improve, but I really like the eldest sister. Shi Zi is exaggerated and funny, yet genuine. They have a very natural husband-and-wife dynamic.
And there's Vegetable Beauty and her best friend Xiao Xiao, they are so adorable. They portray their characters as artificial, but it's endearing. Not easy to pull off! It's true that, like everyone else, I'm not particularly fond of Ke Ling...
It's enjoyable. Originally, I regarded it as a casual drama, and it does meet the standard. Throughout the viewing process, I was moved countless times by the mother-daughter bond among the five characters, as well as the love stories of each couple.
I felt both regretful and satisfied with the way Si Huang Zi and Ke Ling's relationship was handled. Personally, I still wanted them to end up together.
I really adore the eldest sister. I can skip everything else every day as long as there's beauty, sassiness, and a sharp tongue. But she's still not interested in romance. Selfish women are the most beautiful, and there's nothing wrong with loving only your family.
The joy of Lan Gui Xi seems to revolve around love, but in reality, every happiness comes from family. I love my family, after all.
7.8/10. Compared to the concurrent drama "Que Dao Men," it falls slightly short, but as a family-oriented comedy, it's not bad. The writing is decent, but there are significant issues with the characterization of the fourth sibling.
The first and third siblings are well-written and have tension, while the second sibling, despite being the protagonist, is treated as a backdrop to the story.
The healing aspect is so good. Du Ru Yu, as a single mother, effectively conveys emotional value, directly addressing emotions and indirectly resolving misunderstandings and emotional barriers among the children.
That's why the whole family can live harmoniously, united and friendly. The portrayal of supporting characters is also vivid. In short, the overall atmosphere is heartwarming.
A lively and heartwarming period ensemble family comedy. The performances of the main cast are truly brilliant, and the key is the excellent script. The funny moments are genuinely hilarious, unlike some dramas that force laughter.
There are also touching scenes that showcase character growth. The ending is not forcefully tied up with a cliché happy ending, which is praiseworthy.
