Why Harem Intrigue When You Can Just Raise A Dog Instead? (Chp 27)
Chapter 27: Grounded (禁足)
Translator: Nyamachi
English proofreaders: JimmyfromIT & 247Reader
September 2020 Edit: JimmyfromIT was kind enough to go back through my translations and edit all the ones he hadn’t done yet. The chapter should read a lot smoother now. Goodness, there were a lot of mistakes in this chapter looking back on it~ (> o <);;
November 2021 Edit: 247Reader has done another pass-through for this chapter! Thanks for your hard work!
Thank you again for your kind words and support, everyone! I appreciate the company as I continue on my journey as a translator :3 Please take care of me!
TL Thoughts:
Phew! That took a while! I hope I didn’t keep you waiting too long. This is my first time translating. I really struggled with the punctuation in this chapter. Sometimes descriptions would run on with multiple commas and I wasn’t sure whether to somehow write in that style or break the sentence apart as I saw fit. I would love any feedback you might have about the translation quality, any mistakes, better phrasing etc. <3
Until next time,
Nyamachi

It’s me from NU forum! :3 You did a great job with this chapter, it was a pleasure to read. I hope you keep going, congrats on taking the translator step!

Ty for picking this up. You know she could’ve just pretended to be pregnant and got a child out of somewhere to act as her baby.After all she’s so powerful as to have a guard pretend to be the emperor and her dad holds rein to all matters. But I guess the author is really hell bent on ruining her.
Haha the same thing ran through my head when I read that part. I’m pretty sure they could’ve made a moon bump or used some kind of padding to fake the pregnancy.
Thank you for picking this up!
Thank so very much for picking this up
Thanks for picking this up, Nyamachi. It was a great pleasure reading the translation as it shows that you’re effectively bilingual. Looking forward to more chapters!
Thanks for your kind words ❤️ ahah don’t think I’m quite there yet but appreciate it all the same. Thanks for reading!
Firstly, I would like to tell you that it is currently midnight, and in my plight of being unable to fall asleep and having read all my ongoing-addict-novels (this one is placed in the “okay” one I created to stop myself from my impatience xD hence accumulating ~hopefully~ as many chapters as I can when I stumble upon it. However, the previous tl-er stopped tl-ing this.
My point being : midnight + unexpected surprise = high pitched scream. Consequences? Angry neighbors xD
Thank you so much for taking this up, I know how hard ancient setting Chinese novels are to translate, and here comes my second point …..
HOLY SHIIIIEZZZ. First translation? Brrrruuuuuuuuu…. Are you a genius? This fluidity despite some grammatical errors, it’s so enjoyable!! And the NSFW ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Uggggh
Although I think I’d love the pinyins such as Zhen or Bengong ? I dunno, it feels stylish xD
But, your translation is amazing. If I weren’t so broke, I’d literally fund you all the coffee, sugar, energy necessary! Lmao
So! Thanks for taking this on!!! And it’s really amazing to the point that it made my neighbors angry! (*Shameless* compensation with another chapter? xD JK)
Xoxo
Hello Gumi! This is a very late reply but thank you so much for your kind words! I like your idea of using Zhen or Bengong. Maybe I’ll try it in a future chapter 🙂 Thank you again for the encouragement! <3
No problem; I really love and admire your work ! You just got yourself another faithful follower 😉
Thanks for picking up this novel!
I was so excited when I saw that this novel had been picked up. You’ve done a great job with the grammar and punctuation (I’m actually an English teacher) and I love your descriptions. Thank you! 😀
Thank you! I’m glad the descriptions are helpful. ^ ^
I love you for picking up this novel! One of my top favorite novels! Hope you’ll be able to translate it til the end! I even let my brain overheat when I MTL-read this for more than 7 times already 😀
