Chen Xu was known throughout Linchuan City as a "good husband."
His wife, Lin Wan, didn't come home for dinner every Wednesday, and he let it slide. When she broke a bowl, he kept the chipped one for himself. When she smashed his mother's birthday banquet in front of all the relatives, he went door to door to apologize and made excuses for her: "She's been under a lot of pressure lately."
Everyone at work praised his easygoing nature, and the women in the family compound all said Lin Wan was lucky. Even his mother-in-law must have known her daughter had married such a respectable man.
But over their seven years of marriage, Lin Wan spoke less and less and grew more and more irritable. Then, one late night, she left home without a word of explanation.
Everyone asked: With a husband that wonderful, what on earth was she complaining about?
A very profound short article, not an interesting novel, but it reveals a lot of family conflicts. To put it bluntly, the positions of both parties are correct. Men are socialized and rational, while women need emotional care and recognition of their self-worth. Men and women in the world cannot escape this commonality. What is wrong is the way the two parties communicate. The two people lacked the necessary "conflict" before: the conflict has been suppressed by both parties. The man hopes not to argue, and the woman also chooses to swallow all her words when a conflict is about to occur. Without conflict, there will be a lack of opportunities to blurt out your innermost thoughts without any worries, and each other will not be able to sense each other's thoughts. Only by opening your mouth, speaking out, and daring to conflict can you gradually become good at resolving conflicts and controlling the level of conflicts, and enjoy the beauty of unobstructed self-expression.
You can't judge it in terms of whether it's good or bad, I can only say that the description is true and the intention is profound. It can be said that I almost think while reading. It takes me five or six minutes to think and understand a chapter of more than 1,000 words. The plot is very similar to "Chinese Divorce" starring Chen Daoming The novel shows us life after marriage and various troubles and problems in married life from a first-person perspective; the story told in the article is not aimed at saying that either spouse has problems, but that both people have their own problems. The characters are vividly portrayed; the descriptions of family environment and native family environment are also quite realistic. [Covering face] I'm not nervous. My language skills are limited and it's hard to describe. Just go and see for yourself.
