Recently chased a "Rival", a modern spy drama with tense suspense and good acting skills. But it's a little embarrassing to say, from the perspective of our old mother, the protagonist spy couple in it is really Mrs. Mrs. Funny.
Guo Jingfei and Tan Zhuo have their acting skills in place, portraying a pair of couples sent from abroad to china to lurk for more than ten years, and the midlife crisis they are experiencing is portrayed humorously stimulating and desperate .
Only to say that the couple is on the verge of exposure in an episode, Li Tang, the father played by Guo Jingfei, and Ding Meixi, the mother played by Tan Zhuo, agreed to flee with two children. They told their daughter, let's go to Wuyi Mountain to see the sunrise, the sunrise in Wuyi Mountain is beautiful!
You know what?
No one bought it at all, and they couldn't run away.
The eldest daughter, Xiaoting, did not want to go, and said a high-sounding reason: I have painful menstruation and am inconvenient.
Xiao Man, the youngest daughter in middle school, simply ran out of the house to find a boyfriend.
Li Tang chased after the rain and shouted: Can you go to see the sunrise with that little hooligan, can't you accompany me and your mother?
The result is to trigger even greater rebellion from the child: my mother stalks me, you follow me, and Li Tang I look down on you!
Just a few shots, a pair of middle-aged parents who are not very successful or even a little unsuccessful, can be said to be portrayed quite vividly.
How did the story get to this point?
In fact, in the couple's anxious and urgent love for their daughter, there are already clues.

When I first chased this drama, it was because the "spy couple wants a second child" stem circulating on the Internet was too sour.
Li Tang and Ding Meixi are more than forty years old, and their identities in life are taxi drivers and middle school teachers, and they have an adolescent daughter Li Xiaoman.
The family's economic situation is not good, the spy funds have been swept away by the accomplices, the rental has to post a share of the money, and the investment has caught up with the P2P explosion...
Li Tang also has an illegitimate daughter Xiaoting, who was "accidentally" born before marriage, and has been fostered in her hometown and has to subsidize money everywhere.
Just like this, two people, heard that there is a reward of 500,000 for reporting spies, are eager to report themselves!
Why do you still want to open it so much, do you have to fight for the second child?
Because "the tuba practice is ruined".
In Ding Meixi's own words: Li Xiaoman is a fool.
Learning is not good. When the teacher's Ding Meixi took her daughter's grades as her life, she reported countless make-up classes, and every day her ears raised her face to face life without success.
Personality is even worse. No matter how your parents talk, they always wear headphones.
As soon as mom got angry, she was bigger than mom. Mom and Dad don't want to hear anything, she says something. The aunts and uncles in the barrage all wanted to rush up to help Ding Mei beat the child!
What makes people even more anxious is Li Xiaoman's tendency to "take the evil road". Cigarettes popped out of the bag, and even condoms. When arguing with the family, I found a small boyfriend to go out to see the sunrise, and the psychological quality of the spy's parents directly collapsed.
Spelling the second child is just a way for Ding Meixi to transfer anxiety, in fact, what she wants to achieve with all her strength is always a little more sensible and self-reliant, even if one day she has an accident, she can live well.

But unfortunately, she used the wrong method from the beginning.
Because of the long-term tightrope between the two identities of "Teacher Ding" and "Spy Phoenix", Ding Meixi lived an extremely anxious life, and even suffered from "hypothyroidism" (an endocrine disease).
Unconsciously, she saw her daughter as the only way to find a sense of certainty in an uncertain life.
Ask the child for details of schooling, like a prisoner;
From time to time, I turned over my school bag, grasped every detail of my child's life for fear of getting out of control, and flipped to a cigarette and thought that this child would not have to take drugs in the future?
Every time he said that he wanted to talk to his daughter well, but between three words, it became a quarrel and scolding.
In the adult world, children may not understand it for the time being, but the emotions that are depressed and suppressed can be received by children.
In fact, the details of Li Xiaoman always wearing headphones in the play are more like a non-violent and uncooperative confrontation with his mother.
In fact, she could understand far more than her mother had imagined.
She knew that Ding Meixi was dissatisfied with her husband. Incapable, earned less, and the words were wasted from the day they were uttered, they lived in the ears of children.
Although his father, Li Tang, was more patient than Ding Meixi, he was more optimistic in family life. But he created all kinds of bugs by himself, illegitimate daughters, covering up his wife to seduce targets, staging domestic violence and divorce in order to exonerate... All in the eyes of the child.
On the surface, it is the couple who are trying their best to shield their children from a small family in a precarious and turbulent life, but the reality may be that the children are also helping the adults to get the bottom.

The deeper the plot goes, the more you will find that Li Xiaoman has never been ignorant, but her parents have never looked down to see her understanding.
When his classmates said that his mother was a "broken shoe", Li Xiaoman, who rushed out to fight, only thought of maintaining his mother at that time.
Ding Meixi and Li Tang faked a divorce, and in the blink of an eye, they were going to find a stepfather for Xiao Man and turn their lives into a pot of porridge. Xiao Man advised his mother to either remarry or live well with his stepfather.
When Ding Meixi collapsed and cried, Xiao Man would worry that her mother was too tired, and would fill her mother with a bowl of soup and leave silently.
Li Xiaoman's story is just a drama, but in the eyes of the old mother, it is extremely heartfelt. How many parents do not have such a perverted task setting as Li Tang Ding Meixi, but still copy the same family model?
In fact, being a parent can be one of the harder things than being a spy.
Just like Ding Meixi, she "can die for Li Xiaoman", but she is also overwhelmed and overpowered in her upbringing, so that the child only wants to escape.
On the contrary, in the end, both husband and wife know that exposure is only a matter of time, let go of a lot of obsession, and there is no sense of oppression on the child, so there is a rare and harmonious picture.
Ding Meixi accompanied Xiao Man to write homework while choosing vegetables, she recalled Xiao Man's birth, talked about the anxiety of no milk, and the hardships of raising. It will contain love to count the shortcomings of the girl, but Xiao Man also listens quietly.
Because no matter what kind of life her parents are experiencing, as a child, all she sees is her parents and her own simple little family. All the rebellion and confrontation came from her parents' turbulent life, bringing her insecurity and "unloved self-doubt."
When she can hear the love between her parents, she can also find their love for herself;
When she saw her mother, unlike the anxious and grumpy woman in the past...
The armor that had been draped in panic was slowly removed.
There are regrets in the TV series, because Ding Meixi chose a road of no return, even if she can release her former suspicions with her daughter, but as a spy, she cannot escape the punishment of the law in the second half of her life.
Fortunately, more parents in middle-aged students have the opportunity to slowly learn and correct on the road of parenting, nourishing the parent-child relationship that makes children feel safe and warm.
