OGKitten22dCommentedCh 44 Dealing With the Wang and Sun families- OGKitten11mthCommentedJust as she thought of this, an infinite space mixed with green and khaki suddenly appeared in Mo Ruyue's bloodied vision.detailI Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute BabiesGeneral · Wu Shuangzhou
- OGKitten11mthCommentedMo Ruyue's heart was filled with an ominous premonition. This plot was simply too similar to a healing-type farming novel she had read not long ago.detailI Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute BabiesGeneral · Wu Shuangzhou
- OGKitten11mthCommentedAside from himself, every other man in this world would have bad intentions toward his daughter. So he had to be on guard against all men to protect his daughter from falling for their schemes. But, right now, all Xie Heng lacked was a child for him to carry out his plan!

Her sister was also on a boat in the pond, but after circling the pond in her boat she met many other girls on their boats, but none were her sister.
Xie Xun was also inside. She wanted to find Xie Xun, so she asked the servant maids to paddle a circle around the pond. On the way, she met a lot of girls, but Xie Xun was not there. - OGKitten11mthReplied to justhereforthefood
Actually… In English personal pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, you and me, you, him, her, it, us, you. In Mandarin, the personal pronouns are: wo, ni (you in all forms, similar to the English you) and tā (he, she, her, him, and it). How is a translation done by a computer—not a person—supposed to know which ”tā” is meant. Seriously though! 他 (tā) is the most commonly used pronoun and it’s typically gender neutral even though it’s for the masculine “he”. Yes, there’s 她 (tā) for “she” but generally it’s not as commonplace and sometimes in order to guarantee gender neutrality they’ll pinyin it as tā instead of an actual character. Often, the context of the sentence will help you determine the gender of the speaker or subject. This is not always the case, however. When in doubt, assume “他” is being used as a gender neutral perspective.
But it was useless. No matter how others tried to comfort her, it was useless. She still felt uncomfortable in her heart. It was as if there was something stuck in his chest, causing him to be unable to catch his breath. She had never liked anyone before, but the first time she saw Xie Rong, she felt that he was different from the others. He was calm, self-contained, and taciturn. However, she had hinted so clearly today that he actually said, "I dare not." - OGKitten11mthReplied to Lalalina
I mean… there could be a few reasons 🤣
Xie Zhen raised her chopsticks and grabbed the elm egg pancake, but before she could put it into her mouth, the pancake had already fallen into her bowl. Her hands were sore, so she kept her head down to eat the porridge. - OGKitten11mthCommented
Okay. So every time I see people getting irritated at the pronoun mixup and start correcting it in the comments I get irritated. The author has little control over the pronoun usage and the AI translation is imprecise at best due to using very stiff language rules for context on which pronouns to use. In many languages, such as Mandarin there is no actual “she”/“he” the word used could be considered the pronoun equivalent of “it”/“they”/“them” and it’s up to the listener or in this case reader to understand the correct pronouns. This rule is especially important to understand when dealing with cultural differences. For example the Han Chinese, like hundreds of other cultures, place significant importance on titles and have about more than a few dozen other familia based titles than English based cultures do. For example in the west we title family as Father, Mother, Sisters, brothers, cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Typically unless we need to explain for specific reasons we don’t place “maternal” or “paternal” in front of any titles. It doesn’t matter what side of the family they are we generally just say “my grandmother” or “my aunt” therefore we rely heavily on pronouns when speaking. Where as in Simplified Chinese, I know at least 51 family related titles; a title for each the maternal and paternal side of the family and then sometimes a title denoting age.
Last night, Xie Zhen was exhausted, his entire body aching from the pain, and was sleepless. - OGKitten11mthReplied to QuietTempest
🤣
It had the hard work attribute from the start. It had nothing to do with him… - OGKitten11mthCommentedAt this moment, Eleven happened to return and caught the key words that the Iron-Eating Beasts were dumb, which it understood. It was immediately unhappy.
- OGKitten11mthCommentedBut Shi Yu… relied on supplements to recover??
- OGKitten11mthCommentedIron Bamboo was as hard as steel and was a mutated type of bamboo. It was the core food used to cultivate iron-eating beasts to master their hardening abilities. It was not cheap, and iron-eating beasts ate a lot.
- OGKitten11mthCommentedHe actually had such a powerful Beast Taming Talent. As expected of himself.
- OGKitten11mthCommentedThere was probably nothing more shameful in the world than this. He had clearly said before that there was no one he liked, and that was why he had forced himself to marry her.
- OGKitten11mthCommentedYan Yu's thin lips parted slightly and he looked away, "It is me who want to marry her. I like her, and I adore her."

See… this is what not being honest gets you…
Unfortunately, by the time he said this, Xie Zhen was distracted by something else. - OGKitten11mthCommentedHe was stunned for a moment before he lowered his head. A trace of guilt flashed across his face.
- OGKitten11mthCommentedNo matter what, it was a treasure that she had obtained from selling herself!
- OGKitten11mthCommentedYan Yu suddenly froze where he was. The expression on his face twitched for a moment, and his anger gradually disappeared. He probably felt like he lifted a rock and smashed his own feet.

He and his future mother-in-law have that in common. 🤭
He had a handsome face and looked like a first-rate son-in-law. However, his eyes were always cold and arrogant, making people feel apprehensive just by looking at him.
