The drama "Parental Love" has always been regarded as a classic by many people. Since the drama landed on David TV in 2014, it has been continuously sought after by audiences. Now, eight years later, the show still maintains a super high replay rate, and new viewers are constantly increasing. Among them, the wonderful interpretations of each actor in the play have left a deep impression on the audience, and many plots are often seen as new.
The drama "Parental Love" does not have so many dog blood stories, only the innocent love, affection and friendship of people in that era. In the play, the closest relationship with Jiang Defu is Lao Ding.
The two met at the artillery school, worked together on the island for many years, and Jiang Defu married his sister to Lao Ding, and these relationships created a different friendship between the two.
01
Old Ding's death
In the play, Lao Ding and Jiang Defu fought for a lifetime, but the plot was about to end, and Lao Ding died suddenly, and the reason for Lao Ding's death was not explained in detail in the plot.
Even the scene of Lao Ding's death is expressed through the dialogue between Anjie, Jiang Yafei and Jiang Defu.
In the plot, Jiang Yafei took Kaiseru home at the request of Jiang Defu and asked Anjie the reason, and the screenwriter used Anjie's mouth to tell the truth about Lao Ding's death, and Anjie said:
Regarding the plot and reasons for Lao Ding's death, there are so many explanations in the plot.
Although the only words of this dialogue do not directly explain the reason for Lao Ding's death, it also hints at the reasons to a certain extent.
In fact, the death of Lao Ding is related to his constipation. At that time, he was old like Jiang Defu, because of constipation, excessive force when pulling stool, resulting in sudden cerebral hemorrhage, so he died.

The screenwriter's intentions are good
Many viewers said that the plot was not reasonable for the plot of Lao Ding's death. Because, there is no foreshadowing in the plot of this point, and when this fact is expressed through the mouth of the Jiang Defu family, the reason is not clearly explained. Let many viewers who are new to the plot a bit blindfolded.
In fact, this is not unreasonable, on the contrary, the screenwriter wants to deepen the audience's impression of the plot of Lao Ding's death.
The screenwriter is set up in this way, and many of our viewers do not understand the reasons for it after watching it, and they will begin to answer their doubts through various means such as the Internet.
It is also based on the process of exploring the causes ourselves, and we will have a deeper memory of the reasons for Lao Ding's death.
The reason why the audience remembers it is because the event of cerebral hemorrhage caused by constipation does not only appear in TV dramas, but also many elderly people in our lives have died because of it.
The screenwriter uses this way of setting up suspense in order to attract the attention of the audience watching the play, so as to avoid the recurrence of tragedies like Lao Ding in the play.
The main creators of the play also said in a later interview that the original intention of this design was to let the audience pay attention to and be vigilant against such incidents happening to themselves.
Another reason is that there is no official confirmation, but it is widely circulated. The reason why the character of Lao Ding was suddenly taken offline was because the actor Ren Shuai, who played Lao Ding, was very tight at that time, and the crew arranged such a plot with comprehensive consideration.

The revelation of the death of Old Ding
In the plot before Lao Ding's death, Lao Ding shouted that he wanted to drink Maotai with Jiang Defu and said, "Live to do, die to count." ”
Many viewers took Lao Ding's words as a foreshadowing of his death later. Drinking alcohol and not paying attention to the maintenance of the body, paving the way for the later death plot, can indeed make sense.
By combing through the causes and consequences of Lao Ding's death and the good intentions of the screenwriter, we not only explore the plot itself, but more importantly, remind us to maintain a healthy and good lifestyle, pay attention to our bodies, and avoid the recurrence of Lao Ding-style tragedies.
