Ahhh! What a place to end a chapter!! Need more!! ?Thank you for your hard work, as always.

Thank you team for bringing this mesmerizing novel to life through your beautiful translation. I love all the characters, particularly Granny-Sheng, Minglan & GTY. The historical setting, the customs, and belief systems. All the intricate and complicated relationships (e.g., main wife vs concubine(s), legal children vs concubine children etc.) The very oppressive hierarchy system in ancient times. The role of women from early age to womanhood with very high standards, rules of conduct and expectations set up in a society that puts them at a disadvantage in all aspects of life compared to the men in their time. I’m thoroughly loving and enjoying every single chapter and look forward every day to read the latest chapter! Highly recommend to all!

Ahhh I shouldn't binge read it because now I'm caught up and don't know what to do with my life. Thank you do much for translating this novel:D

Thank you! X3 for picking up this novel. Love love this story and Minglan too.

I get to enjoy this delightful story because of another putting in their time and effort. Thank you so much, Iris. May the universe send you showers of kindness and fortune!

I honestly love this novel, I look forward to it's updates everyday... even though it's only like 3×s a week

The story flows gently like a river, beautifully. The translation is effortless and natural. Thank you so much.

👻👻👻

This is one of the few stories that I can't wait to read new chapters every week. The realism and slice of family life really make me feel I'm part of their everyday life and the slow evolution of growing up in ancient China. All the characters are 3-dimensional and while people make mistakes and might even be villains you can see the human motivations behind their actions and pettiness that comes from the authors patient style of storytelling. It may not be action-packed but the slow pace helps bring out the details and intricate characters making it well worth the time to read.

I watched the drama but am looking forward to the novel. Much gets lost when adaptations take place so it will interesting to read the original and let our imagination do the work

I love this novel. It is so natural and real.

I like to thank the site moderators, editors and translator for bringing this wonderful novel to us. I watched the show first then I got interesting in reading the novel. While I loved the show, there’s always bits that are more interesting in a novel. The flight of the imagination is better sometimes. Keep up the great work!

very like

ho ho awesome but can I please get more chapters in week plz plz plz ☹️☹️☹️

Watch the drama: story of mingling! So so so good!!! I rewatched it twice. I just love the slice of life this drama took bc it’s not your typical family scheming novel, but more of a novel telling the story of a family during ancient China.

(currently at chapter 89) WHAT I LIKED First of all, the translator is amazing and well deserving of these stars. Second of all, I really appreciate some characters and especially the development, from what I can tell, of one. The Old Madam is really one of my favourite. I can tell that each one of them are complex and well thought out despite some that kinda get on my nerves. I like the fact that it isn’t too dramatic, like concubines poisoning newborns or whatnot but everyone’s pretty mild here, so that’s good. Thirdly, the plot, although slow at first, has attached to me. I was a bit annoyed at the fact that the main character wasn’t doing much and only lying down all day, but I do know that it was clearly written in the description that that would happen. At the end tho, I found it quite enjoyable and the time advancement is also quite steady. Also, I appreciate the long chapters. WHAT I DISLIKED I find it sometimes hard to follow, for the story has so many characters and family. I really suggest you make family trees if you want to understand everything, especially since many are family and so the second or first word in a name is usually the same: e.g. Shan Yun, Shan Luo(?) and stuff like that. Also, as I mentioned before, the beginning is a but slow and boring. PS. If you’re expecting romance, this novel isn’t necessarily for you because up until now there hasn’t been many developments and I’m still not 100% sure who the male lead is. All in all, I rate this novel 4.5 but I prefer rounding it to 5.

Ahhh.. love this novel ?

Hehe??

really enjoy reading this. Thanks so much for the translation. The plot just develops so naturally and every character so amazingly well built. And noticed the update time issue too. I've already written the group a email. Hope this would be solved soon.

Thank you for translate this novel a spent more that two years waiting for someone to translate it, I really appreciate your efforts, thank you

This is my current obsession right now. But I made a huge error, a while ago I checked their drama page to see who the male lead is but I misread, I thought it was Qi Heng, and I read with the assumption that he will be the ml but the more I read the more weird it is so I check again and turns out the ml is not him hahaha. Now I need to reset my expectation. But I have full confidence in this writer. Thank you for picking up this wonderfull story, hope the translation can be consistant.

I came across this series recently and got addicted by watching it over and over ? then I saw some comment on YouTube that there was also a book! I very much appreciate your effort in translating The Concubines Daughter Minglan into English! Kodus to you ?? Now I have something to look forward reading everyday ? some of the scenes in the series might be different from the book hence I still want to know more about Minglan. 63chapters already but Minglan & Gu second haven’t met yet... I still vouched for YuanRou lol

A detailed introduction of imperial exams in feudal China. If you wanna learn it quick, just jump to "Taking the exams" and "Degree types" which will help you get a better understanding of the exams in Minglan.

Thanks, i really love this novel

Hualan should sell those yiniangs (girls) in her courtyard to get more silvers for her sister in law dowry. See if her mother in law will harass her anymore for money.

this novel was very funny...i really have fun

argh i need to finish this novel so i can watch the drama

Thank you for translating this book. you have done an amaing work. It's really interesting to read

great

Really enjoy reading this and I am curious as to how different it will be from the TV series

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you for the chapter

salah satu novel favorit...mudah2an ada tambahan update😘

Simplesmente uma das melhores histórias que já li (e como sou uma leitora compulsiva já li muitas), e que teve uma adaptação ao Drama muito bem feita. O tradutor resgatou essa linda séria e a qualidade de sua tradução está fora de questionamento. Simplesmente Fantástico! (Portuguese)

very well

it's a good one to read❤

Suka dengan tipe MC yang seperti ini, tidak membalas dendam kiri kanan atas bawah

In my list to read

Love this novel so much!!

???

Among favourite novels

i hope this novel hve fix updte date ..bcs its so hard to wait rndom

Nice novel

?

I really enjoy this one!

Really really lobe reading this novel ??

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Awesome

gg

This story is really close to my heart. The mc is normal, not too op. She is clever but not malicious. The so called villains also have humanity and common sense

i think the story is very realistic. MC has no super halo it's not as cliche as the other stories well the only thing that i dislike is the ml i prefer the doctor

This novel is great. I don't usually get emotional when reading, but this story had me crying a couple of times so far. This is one novel that I will be rereading a number of times. Thank you to the translators and editors for all the hard work!

Seems good

In love with this novel.

Very well written story with a combination of modern humor set in ancient times. Female protagonist is strong and opinionated and would not let the male lead dominate.

I just love this story

im still trying to finish reading this lololol ive stopped reading this for quite a while and i kept stopping every now and then bt still go back and read it again.. so weird lololol

Legend of Minglan is perhaps one of my favorite C-Novels to ever exist. Thank you for translating this.

Thanks for translate this novel. Really good story. ?

?

I like LoCDM because, although it is fiction, I can feel how difficult a woman's life was in ancient times

Interesting

I can’t find the search bar on the app! Please help ???

I honestly love the progress of the story, albeit I think it's a very weird progress. Unless there is a story from Gu Tingye's perspective, so far I don't think there's a chemistry between the leads. Why so? Based from the story so far, they've met twice (or thrice) in the story and there wasn't anything romantic about it. Unless you want to claim that him saving her from the pirates is romantic then well... I've got nothing to say. However, I do love the story and all the characters so I'm going to keep reading and see where it takes me.

Terima kasih telah menerjemahkan novel ini

I’ve been planning to read this for a long time and been holding off because of some of the reviews/comments I’ve read. Finally I binge read and catch up to the latest translated chapters. i should have read this long time ago and not let myself be affected by some comments. I really like Minglan and her relationship with her grandma. I also like that she’s just trying to live her life in peace. Actually, this novel is calm compared to some others I read with lots of killing plot, schemes etc. It’s a breath of fresh air honestly.

Thank you for translating this amazing novel ! it is very interesting and I really wonder how our main leads are going to get married ?

I just discovered this novel and read it straight until c135. I love the MC. And oh gosh the author really likes to tease the readers by keeping them guessing about the ML huh.

Great story!

?

so cool

amazing novel !!!and perfect translation !!!

Thank you for translating! ???

Hmm sounds great

I need more ,the waiting is killing me

Awalnya ragu untuk baca karena aku ngeliat foto ML versi C-drama & nggak suka (sorry untuk yang suka). Tetapi seperti biasa rasa penasaranku lebih kuat & aku baca deh... Dan ternyata aku suka hehehe.. terus aku cari review untuk versi C-drama-nya dan katanya karakter MC beda dari novel. Jadi aku cuma baca translate novelnya aja tapi kenapa updatenya lama??? Translator please, update everyday, every hour

Thank you for continuing this story. Keep up the good work!

I've been searching! Finally found you!!!! Hopefully you won't be dropped ever again!!!!

Love this story, it hasn’t been translated fully but so far so good!

Very engrossing read!

The summary of wanting to be lazy is all of our dreams !! XD

Thanks Team Iris ♫♪♫♪♫♪♫

I love this novel ! Thank you for translating it ! I'm looking forward for new chapters updates all the time ^^ (even though the chapters come only about 3-4 times a week)

good thing to read .

Found This novel long time ago, loved it got in translation Limbo for a while very sad... now, continued in flying line very good totally recomended, The live TV series changed the characters a lot to make it more intense. but i like the novel's pacing more, it's more of a light hearted slice of life, with bouts of action in between,

Mejor que Nove de tv

This story is great. A bummer when it dropped. Thank goodness it was picked up.

Good looking

Thanks for translating

Great protagonist not to of a pushover nor a greedy person

It’s finally the moment where our male lead is going to throw the line in and hook out female lead for keeps. Ohhhh I can’t waist. Love this novel so far

Thank you for translating

<3 <3

Extremely highly recommend! A must read.

hope for faster update but will be patient

Im excited for this story

Very good story, thanks for translator hard work☺️

Love the story, love the translation!

thank you for the last chapter❤❤

One of my most favorite historical novel, as you can already feel the love between minglan and the grandmother, how I wish that me and my grandmother could also have that kind of familial love

Спасибо за перевооод ❤️каждый день жду с нетерпением ?

I think it's a good read and every one should give it a chance

its really good worth reading

The snail pace of updates is frustrating but I can't put this book down. I've invested a lot of hours frying my brain reading the "Google-translated version" of the book and it is very engaging. There's an appropriate amount of drama, action, comedy, and romance. Even though the translator had divided the chapters into parts (and understandably so as each chapter sometimes contains more than 5,000 Chinese characters, which would probably be longer when translated into English), the novel is short at only about 100+ chapters. So I hope that the translator doesn't give up and finish this novel. P.S. Can you post the previous chapters too, please?

looks good

Nice story! It gives a great look on a Chinese historical family. Its Nice that the mc isnt op, she doesnt have weird powers. Nice for a change. The drama is great too!

❤️

╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

This is one of my faves. Thank you for your hard work. Keep it up! <3

good!

One of the best novels I read ?

???

This is one of my favorite novels so I was really excited when it got picked up again. Now that I've experienced reading between the lines a bit more, I can reason the story out and predict future actions more easily so I have more to look forward to. Unlike most novels I've read, Minglan has a consistent personality and effective character growth. She doesn't randomly make decisions on whim and has a semblance of rationality *cough* unlike typical transmigration novels where the FL is some valiant hero who rushes out to get revenge *cough*. She isn't OP either and doesn't have superhuman skills that boost her position. Instead, she has to carefully navigate through her daily life so the pacing may be quite slow for some people. The supporting characters are fleshed out and I love how Minglan's relationships with them are realistic. I'm looking forward to the romance (there isn't much currently) because it's gonna take some persuasion for me to like the ML much more than now lol. Thank you Translator for your hard work!

Great story. This is a rare one where the female lead do not want to be in spotlight

Спасибо за перевооод!!! Ох уж эта семейка Цао?ни стыда, жду с нетерпением продолжение ?

The best thing I ever read!

j'adore cette histoire

Thank you for the amazing novel! I hope to see her married life soon

Новая главаааааа❤️❤️❤️спасибо большое за перевод ?жду с нетерпением продолжение))))

It’s a slice of life story that is extremely entertaining and not boring at all. I love the relationship between the protagonist and her grandmother, it’s really heartwarming. I love this story. It’s a must read!

????

i love this novel. It's pretty refreshing for once to have an ordinary protagonist, no super-doctor, soldier or assassin. Just a girl who tries to survive and adapt to a different world/era. Thanks for translation and continue the good work

I always look forward to new chaps of this novel I love how the story is going on a realistic phase

I really love this novel and has been reading this for quite some time already. For me, I think its a bit more realistic portrayal of an ordinary transmigrated female lead without extraordinary powers but the story is still super interesting!

Yayyy this novel continue translet. Hope will until the end capture

On my liking, Beautiful and alert story line.

Love

Great story.. But more focust on the lifes inside of the sheng family... Minus romance plot, but the most shocking is that usually in the story of the ancient chinese.. Always focus on the imperial family with GOOD GENE..but here.. The emperor and the prince is not handsome... Boy..a girls dreams is a story with a handsome male with great background.. And more there is no direct interaction with FL with the imperial family.. Anyway.. The FL really have no ambitions.. Too depent with ancient rule and her grandma... And then.. THERe is no MAGIC... O.O,, so, thats all \0.0/ And one last, Is this the end? No more chapter?

This novel is particularly good-looking.

Весьма интересная история, с нетерпением жду продолжения!!!

Its actually fascinating novel but the slow update leaves me hanging...

The chapter updating is really odd.

a love this history

very nice

Fly

I'm glad I can read this story somewhere. The drama got me itching to finish it

I love this novel. It's fantastic so far. Minglan is an amazing lead character. I always want more chapters! I also recommend watching the drama. It's different but just as good.

Новая глава не разочаровала! Спасибо за перевод)))

I love this book! I always look forward to a new chapter

Great book.. Readers say that it is Ancient China’s version of Downton Abbey. Slow paced but very detailed. I love it ?

Thx for your translation! l want to read Korean novel but it doesn’t exist in Korea now :( so l’m reading your translated novel and it is really fun xD. l’m really nervous what’s gonna next especially in the case of Gu ting ye!!

Love this

love it

Ооочееень понравилось!!! Спасибо за перевод))) буду ждать с нетерпением продолжение! Я с начала сериал смотрела, хотя и отличается, но ни то ни другое меня не разочаровало)))

very good

What a treat today!!! 3 chapters and I still can’t get enough ? thank you so much for the new chapters and translation ???

Loving it so far! It’s different from the drama but not so different that you start to hate one or the other. It keeps you wanting to know more!

minglan is a great woman?

I really like this novel the female lead isn't the only female with personality! I think the translation is great and the plot really interesting.

hoping for more updates

One of the best Chinese novel translated. The story is slow but it is riveting. I love how down to earth she is. I like it way better than the face slapping ones.

awesome book... by please update early cz I can't wait

Mhm, I'll try it ?

This novel is a piece of art with clever and funny characters and contrary to almost all of transmigration stories is not centered in revenge for the previous host.

I love this so much

I like this novel and MC. I cant wait to see who she will end up in the end.

Thank u for the hard work .

hmmm gonna try this

The beginning is a bit slow, but it gets good afterwards (around chapter 14)

Love it

thank you for picking this book up. i love the story of minglan and how the author explains the settings to let the readers understand and learn more..

this novel is a gem

This is one of the few transmigration story where MC is not an OP character, she is normal a bit cunning, but not someone who can kill without batting an eyelid. My favourite characters are Minglan (obviously) , Grandma, Hai Shi , elder brother sheng , youngest sheng brother. The depiction of slow building romance is also very appropriate.

The journey of Minglan is pretty interesting... She's trying her best to be a good sister and to people who are dear to her heart including her loyal servants...

awesome novel

to be read!

nice story plot

Transmigration to ancient world. Story is slow moving. Character development is slow but complete. There is no revenge angle. At the time of review romance is nonexistent. Love how smart Mingyan is and how adjusting she is to her ancient life. She tries her best to live well!

nice

why there isn't chapter 1-26? mine only starts from c27.

Thank you for the translation.

But for the last 2 days there were updates but no new chapter. It says it was updated just now but the new chapter is still 96th.

awww how adorable is Minglan!!!

i want to know too I check the novel every two days and it always said update every 17 minutes

Gracias por traducir

I'm so in love. Thank you for translating! One of the best I've read so far.

Thank you so much for the translations. I'm loving it and read the new ones as soon as they're up. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!!!

Realistic novel, really well developed characters

Thank you for your hard work! Really enjoy reading! Thank you so much ???

The story is told very well, that is a regulated tells the story of the ups and downs of the ancient family. Plot tension and relaxation, before the moment there is still a heart for the protagonist knead cold sweat, the next moment, may laugh neurosis.
