If you told me back at the start of this flashback that eventually there was going to be a shot of Wangji staring longingly at WuXian over a fire, while playing him soothing music in a cave -- I would have called you crazy. BUT HERE WE ARE!

We get cultivator pining, more crumbs of family drama, our "brothers" promising to be "twin heroes," and Mama Yu LAYING DOWN THE LAW (at the cost of us having to witness poor WuXian being whipped, sadly). 

HOLY COW, this episode had SO MUCH going on!

Thank you for watching and for the support!

My heart breaks for Jiang Cheng ;( Since he was a child he has been compared to the genius Wei Wuxian, who excelled in cultivation with ease. Constantly being criticized by his mother and being ignored by his father, never getting praize from him (at least from Jiang Chengs perspective) making him truly believe that his father hates him 😭 just... Ugh, my heart! Also, can't wait for episode 11...It's gonna be intense

RIGHT?! I just hate it for Cheng -- he just wants to be seen and recognized by his father, who I'm sure DOES love him; it's just hard being in WuXian's shadow. T_T And with his mother and others gossiping and reinforcing this negative view, it could be easy to see him miss any praise he DOES get. Ugh....muh heart. Also...**nervous laugh for Episode 11**

Madam Yu's grudge against Wei Wuxian is hard to fully understand. I don't think she hates him enough to kill or actually hurt (you were totally right about her being easy on Wuxian and you'll see the actual proof of it in the future episodes: there's one particular scene hinting exactly that). She just doesn't like him because of Jiang Fengmian's parental love for him; and his naughty behavior - that can in theory threaten clan's prosperity. In risky situations Madam Yu will just simply put her clan above Wei Wuxian: like she did in this episode. I don't want to justify her actions - she was undeservedly harsh on Wuxian and both Yanli and Cheng, making them insecure or oppressed in a different kind of ways - but there's still some sort of conscientiousness in her that makes Madam Yu one of the most controversial characters this story is well known for. The Jiang family is quite fucked up if you pay close attention to it. Jiang Fengmian playing favourites, Madam Yu opressing her children and blaming Wei Wuxian for every bad situation ever happened to them (it will have such a big impact on him, you can't even imagine), endless fights between parents etc. In MDZSq (it's not really a spoiler) Jiang Cheng once casually said "I'm fine by myself. Should I marry someone to quarrel with?" and... well, you can probably understand what I'm implying. The family dynamics of this story are superior. So imperfect and realistic! Can't wait for your reaction to the Lan family dynamic! Oh, Lan Wangji is already so whipped for Wei Wuxian! I can't take it.. Any form of Wangji's devotion to him makes my heart melt. No wonder the ending song that symbolizes Wangji's feelings had previously changed. (Also, don't you think that the current ending song and the tune Wangji played are very similar? :P) Please, remember the tune until the end of the show! It is actually very important in terms of the plot. Hopefully, the animators will include one specific mystery connected to it in the final season! Thank you for your reaction!

Madame Yu, badass to the bone! Fengmian was such as soft and does not want to deal with Madame Yu in that moment. I think he was afraid of losing his tempter, not wanting to rock the boat. The SONG is not the OP, its THEIR own song which you have heard before in an earlier episode in the "present".

Madame Yu is SUCH a badass! And yes, I agree that he didn't want to argue around the children, so he took off...clearly, both parents are on opposite ends of the spectrum when handling conflict. Fengmian is on the "flight" side, whereas Mama Yu will "fight" all day long. It doesn't make for a good resolution, sadly. And yessss, "WangXian" right?! Ahhhh....I can't wait to re-watch the first two episodes after this season and see all that was missed! :D :D

Yeah, it's a MAJORLY dysfunctional family, and the worst part is your parents don't see eye-to-eye or communicate/resolve conflict in any sort of harmonious way, so as the saying goes, "the children suffer" for it...it goes back to Fengmian's concern over Yanli being "forced" to marry...and I don't blame Cheng AT ALL for not wanting to marry anyone! All he knows with relationships is how it's gone for his parents. And that hasn't been good. T_T OH, I can't wait either!! :D :D And mannnn, yeah, Wangji is more whipped than we thought! I can't take it either!! I've heard the tune being played is their own "theme" and I am all here for it!! I can't wait to see it come up again! :D :D Thanks so much for the comment and kind words!
