Hey everyone! Here it is - my reaction to episode 8 of The Apothecary Diaries! Oh dang, Maomao just can't get away from the mysteries and adventures, can she?! She's been home for all of 10 minutes and here we go again! It was so cool to see her work alongside her dad, and it's hard to imagine someone quicker on the uptake than Maomao! The actual plot was once again not black and white. And this really got me thinking about women's role in general during this period. Also, I think she may have killed Jinshi at the end there lol!!! Phrasing is everything!!! Great ep! Enjoy! ~ MH

As you can see from this episode, Maomao has spent a lot of her time learning from her dad. She’s very intelligent and clever, but this episode shows that she’s not perfect - nobody is, to be fair. The whole murder mystery scene actually feels like it took parts out of several crime dramas (not that that’s a bad thing), but it’s definitely a trope where the obvious answer hardly ever comes back to be the right one. Maomao says she shouldn’t speak on conjecture, and then she immediately does so. The girl can’t help it, she even says it herself - once I start doubting there’s no stopping. I think we all know how that can feel. She just has an insatiable need to solve these puzzles that keep getting thrown at her. It also looks like her little ruse with Lihaku has landed her in a pile of debt with Grams - swell, now she’s got THAT to worry about . She has so much on her plate that when it comes to Jinshi, she’s pretty much oblivious. She doesn’t even realize, as Jinshi points out, the true meaning of the hairpins. Gyokuyou does, and she’s fully aware of the joke. In fact you might say she’s super WAKU WAKU about it. Hopefully you have a night of blissful dreams. Error: Jinshi.exe has stopped working. 😅

Goodness I underestimate a lot. That was so elaborate. Man the things these women have to put with to reach that point 🥃 ☠️ Oh Maomao you unaware genius. Take the hint!

For real, they had quite the elaborate scheme! Hahaha Maomao is so smart yet she still says things like this!

Yeah you can really tell she's her dad's protégé! This one was a crime drama for sure. Haha, she always says that yet she always ends up doing it! She just really craves putting all the pieces together. Oof, that's a lot of debt! Hahahaha I love how Gyokuyou is using this as her own personal soap opera! And yeah, Maomao is pretty clueless for someone so smart! Poor Jinshi :P
