In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there was a man named Li Xiaobai, who lived an ordinary and quiet life with his wife Yang. Since the two got married, they have always respected each other and experienced the ups and downs of life together. However, behind this seemingly happy marriage, there are some hidden secrets.
Li Xiaobai was originally a handsome man with a burly figure and a dignified appearance, but in recent years, his figure has gradually become bloated, and his face has become a little more vicissitudes. And Yang, who was originally a graceful and beautiful woman, has now become haggard and has a dull face.
All these changes stem from the unhappiness in their marriage. Li Xiaobai is a very ambitious man, busy with official business all day long, and rarely has time to spend with his wife. Yang is a gentle and virtuous woman, she silently endures her husband's neglect and manages the housework alone. Over time, the relationship between the two gradually drifted apart, and their married life became boring.
One day, Li Xiaobai met an old friend he hadn't seen for many years at the market. When the old friend saw Li Xiaobai, he was surprised to find that he had become so haggard. The old friend asked with concern, "Brother Li, how have you been doing all these years, and how did you become like this?"
Li Xiaobai sighed and said helplessly: "Alas, how can married life be so easy." Although my wife and I respect each other like guests, our relationship is getting weaker and weaker. I was busy with official business and had little time to spend with her, and she gradually lost confidence in me. The distance between us is getting farther and farther away, and married life is becoming boring. ”
After hearing this, the old friend was silent for a moment, and then said: "Brother Li, do you know that whether the husband and wife are happy or not can actually be seen from their respective figures and appearances. Look at you now, with a bloated body and a haggard face, isn't that a portrayal of an unhappy marriage?"
After Li Xiaobai heard this, his heart throbbed. He thought back to the sweet time he had with his wife, and a strong sense of guilt welled up in his heart. He realized that he had indeed ignored his wife's feelings and had not given her enough love and companionship.
After returning home, Li Xiaobai decided to change the status quo. He began to spend more time with his wife, doing chores, chatting, and going for walks with her. He also often takes his wife out to play and let her feel the joy of life. Gradually, the relationship between the two became intimate again, and their married life was revitalized.
With Li Xiaobai's efforts, Yang has gradually regained its former beauty and vitality. Her smile brightened and her countenance glowed with a new glow. The two supported and cared for each other and spent many wonderful times together.
This experience made Li Xiaobai deeply understand the difficulty of married life. He understands that husbands and wives need to understand and tolerate each other in order to go through the ups and downs of life together. He also understood that happiness is not measured by external material conditions, but by the emotional exchange and mutual care between husband and wife.
This story became a good story in the Tang Dynasty, and people praised Li Xiaobai as a good husband with affection and righteousness. His experience also tells us a truth: married life requires the joint efforts of both husband and wife to operate and maintain, and only by caring for each other and understanding each other can we create a happy and happy married life.
Let us draw positive energy from Li Xiaobai's story and manage our married life with our hearts! No matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter, as long as we work together and support each other, we will certainly be able to create a happy life of our own.
