Description
The Jian family in Jiangning Prefecture has been in the gold jewelry business for generations, making their jewelry store a well-known establishment. Master Jian never worries about gold and silver and desires to elevate his merchant status into the circle of elites. Thus, he plans to arrange a marriage for his only daughter, Jian Mingshu… The Jian family in Jiangning Prefecture runs a well-known, long-established jewelry store. Mr. Jian hopes to use his business to enter the ranks of nobility. To achieve this, he cast a wide net, selecting a few poor men who had been carefully cultivated, offering them gold and silver, all in hopes of catching a son-in-law. Lu Chang is just one of the “fish” caught in the Jian family’s “pond,” but he was quickly promised to the Jian family’s daughter, Ming Shu. Unfortunately, this young man is arrogant and ambitious. An imperial decree, ten years of friendship, and when the tea cools, people will leave. As soon as the top scholar left, the Jian family faced misfortune. When Jian Ming Shu opened her eyes again, she had forgotten everything. To prevent Jian Ming Shu from having unwanted thoughts again, Lu Chang lied to her. “You are my sister.” From then on, Jian Ming Shu became Lu Ming Shu… But later, Lu Chang regretted what he had done. ☆ If you want revenge, I will help you; if you want to go to hell, I will go with you. ☆ We will be together for a lifetime, and we will never leave each other in life or death. ☆ Under the shining meteors, Lu Han’s smiling face was not clear. But this time, she could see it clearly—he was the young man in the green shirt from her dream. ☆ “Lu Chang, you are good to others, and I… am here to be good to you!” She is his, his little moonlight.

My Thoughts on The Noble Son-in-Law
"The Noble Son-in-Law," also known as "Looking for a Noble Son-In-Law," definitely piqued my interest with its blend of historical romance and a touch of mystery. After diving in, I can see why it has resonated with readers.
First Impressions
The premise is intriguing. A family seeking a scholar for a son-in-law, a woman with her own desires, and a man who initially wants nothing to do with it all. It sets the stage for a compelling dynamic, and I was curious to see how the story would unfold, especially with the promise of tragedy and revenge.
What Works Well
One of the strongest aspects of this novel is the relationship between Jian Ming Shu and Lu Cheng. The childhood friends to lovers trope is a classic for a reason, and "The Noble Son-in-Law" puts a unique spin on it. Lu Cheng's initial resistance to being "caught" by the Jian family, only to later become her protector and even pretend to be her brother, adds a layer of complexity that I appreciated. The fact that the female lead falls in love first is also a nice twist on the usual power dynamics in these kinds of stories. I also enjoyed the lack of excessive female rivalry, which allowed the focus to remain on the central romance and the overarching plot.
Areas of Concern
While the novel is generally well-received, there's always room for improvement. I would have liked a bit more depth in the mystery-solving aspect.
Final Verdict
Overall, "The Noble Son-in-Law" is an enjoyable read that blends romance, revenge, and a touch of mystery in a historical setting. If you're a fan of childhood sweethearts, strong female leads, and stories with a bit of intrigue, I think you'll find this novel worth your time. I'm looking forward to seeing how the drama adaptation, "Serendipity," brings this story to life!
