In 2000, Zhou Xiaonan got married.
The man is a college student who flew out of the village. He wears glasses, loves to laugh, and speaks politely. On the day of the blind date, he said "yes" to her with a smile, and she felt that she was lucky.
On the first night after marriage, she said: I don't like doing housework, but I am willing to do it together. He smiled and nodded.
She didn't hear his last muttered words.
Later, my mother-in-law moved in with her, and things at home became "women's affairs." Later, she worked alone in the kitchen, and the living room was filled with the laughter of their family of three. Later, she discovered that behind the word "good", there was a whole book that she didn't understand.
On the day of the divorce, everyone said: As a divorced woman, where can you go?
She doesn't know either.
All she knew was that she couldn't go on like this.
In the years that followed, she did manicures, ran street stalls, looked after stores, and wrote random thoughts on forums. Some people scolded her for messing around, some said she was embarrassing, and some left her a message late at night: Sister, thank you, I dare to divorce.
Step by step, she transformed that "something wrong" into "this is me".
This is a story about "becoming yourself".
It's not about becoming a strong woman, it's not about being a winner in life, it's about becoming the one who doesn't need to look back, doesn't need to explain, or doesn't need anyone to nod.

"The words he muttered that night, I remembered later."
He said: I don't like doing housework either.
Intention: Only when there are no limits in life can there be infinite possibilities!
