My Thoughts on Deng Hua Xiao
"Deng Hua Xiao" is a revenge story that immediately grabbed my attention. It's a dark tale of injustice, resilience, and the lengths one woman will go to avenge her family. While it has its minor flaws, the overall experience has been compelling.
First Impressions
The premise is simple but powerful: Lu Tong, after enduring a brutal upbringing, returns home to find her family destroyed. With nothing but her medical and poison skills, she embarks on a quest for vengeance against powerful nobles. What sets this apart from other revenge stories is that Lu Tong has no special advantages – no rebirth, no OP skills, just her wits and determination.
What Works Well
The character of Lu Tong is definitely a highlight. She's cold, calculating, and ruthless, but also vulnerable and deeply scarred. I appreciated how the author explores her internal conflicts and the toll her quest takes on her humanity. Her relationship with Yinzheng, her loyal maid, adds a layer of warmth to the otherwise bleak narrative. The slow-burn romance with Pei Yunying is also well-executed. Their dynamic, filled with suspicion, mutual respect, and undeniable attraction, is captivating. I enjoyed how their relationship evolves from enemies to reluctant allies, and eventually, something more. The author also does a great job of portraying the societal inequalities of ancient China. The stark contrast between the lives of the wealthy and the commoners is a recurring theme, adding depth and complexity to the story. The plot is well-paced, with plenty of twists and turns to keep you engaged.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the novel, I did find some aspects less appealing. Some sections felt repetitive, with the author belaboring certain points. Additionally, Lu Tong's coldness, while understandable, could sometimes make her difficult to connect with. Finally, the ending felt somewhat rushed, and I would have liked to see more of the characters' lives after the main conflict was resolved.

Final Verdict
Despite its flaws, "Deng Hua Xiao" is a well-written and engaging revenge story. The strong female lead, compelling plot, and thought-provoking themes make it a worthwhile read. If you enjoy dark, mature stories with complex characters and a touch of romance, I recommend giving this novel a try.
