The brocade is finally covered with frost.
He was an orphan of a weaver. He lost his father at the age of seven. He was kicked out of the house by his stepmother and collapsed in front of the silk shop. She is the daughter of an embroiderer. Her mother died in childbirth. Her father regarded her as his nemesis and treated her with fists and kicks since childhood.
Two people who had been crushed by fate met each other at the best age. A piece of plain silk is a promise, and a copper coin is a promise. He thought he had given her a home, and she thought that finally someone would not leave.
Three years after the marriage, a daughter was born and named Nian'an. He worked hard in business and rose from a poor boy to the top of Suzhou's silk merchants; she embroidered day and night, supporting half of the family business with a pair of embroidery eyes. Outsiders only know that the Shen couple are deeply in love, but they don't know that under the gorgeous brocade, frost has already quietly condensed. His control stems from the fear of losing everything when he was young - he was too afraid of being abandoned again, so he held his wife and daughter in the palm of his hand. Her forbearance stems from the life she was taught by her father's fists and kicks - she thought that as long as she was obedient enough, she would not be abandoned. But for people who don't know how to love, the harder they exert themselves, the more they will hurt. When his savings were given to his stepmother, when the dowry was pawned by her, when he complained hoarsely in court and she confronted him with tears, when his daughter was snatched away from his arms - the brocade finally broke, revealing the devastation underneath.
The husband judged: "You are not wrong, you are all wrong. You just don't know how to love." He knelt in the snow and watched his daughter's baby go away. She stood at the ferry, watching him row away alone.
It turns out that the cruelest thing in the world is not not loving, but having loved, but loving has become hurt.
Twenty-four episodes describe the ups and downs of a marriage.
Intention: I think that loving each other can sew each other up, but I don't know that people who don't love will only tear the wounds deeper.
