In a third-tier city, there lives a young couple, Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu. Their story is full of twists and turns and helplessness.
Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu came together in free love, they met at a gathering of friends and fell in love at first sight. Since then, the seed of love has been planted in their hearts, and over time, this seed has gradually taken root and grown into a flourishing tree.
In the process of falling in love, Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu get along very well, they have common interests and hobbies, and they also have a beautiful vision for the future. However, when they decided to enter the palace of marriage, they encountered a problem - the in-laws were unwilling to give a bride price. Lin Xiao's parents are not greedy for money, they just want their daughter to get the respect and attention she deserves.
However, the in-laws shirked for various reasons and were unwilling to give the bride price. Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu communicated with their in-laws many times about this matter, but they did not get satisfactory results. Despite encountering such obstacles, Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu firmly chose each other. They believe that with love, all difficulties can be overcome.
So, without a bride price, they held a simple wedding and started a new life. Life after marriage was quite peaceful at first. Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu worked hard and ran their small family together. However, the good times did not last long, and a sudden change broke the peace. The mother-in-law suddenly pretended to be sick, and she pretended to be two years old.
In the past two years, my mother-in-law has been lying in bed all day long, doing nothing, and all the housework has fallen on Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao not only has to take care of her mother-in-law, but also has to take care of housework, and at the same time, she has to take care of work, and she is tired every day. At first, Lin Xiao thought that her mother-in-law was really sick, and she did her best to take care of her mother-in-law.
However, as time went on, she began to realize that something was wrong. The mother-in-law behaved strangely, she didn't seem to be really sick, but deliberately feigned illness. Lin Xiao began to suspect her mother-in-law's true intentions, and she secretly observed her mother-in-law's every move.
Finally, she discovers her mother-in-law's secret. It turned out that her mother-in-law was not sick at all, and the reason why she pretended to be sick was to let Lin Xiao serve her and make her have no status in this family. Lin Xiao felt extremely angry and disappointed, she never thought that her mother-in-law would treat her with such means. She felt cheated and used as a free babysitter by her in-laws. Lin Xiao confided in Zhao Yu, hoping that he could stand up and say something for himself. However, Zhao Yu seemed very embarrassed, he said that he didn't know what to do, after all, it was his mother.
Lin Xiao looked at Zhao Yu's helpless appearance, and his heart was full of despair. Since then, the relationship between Lin Xiao and her mother-in-law has become increasingly strained. Lin Xiao was no longer obedient to her mother-in-law like before, she began to resist and began to express her dissatisfaction. And the mother-in-law intensified and was even more harsh on Lin Xiao.
In such an environment, Lin Xiao's life became extremely difficult. She lives in pain and depression every day, and she doesn't know how long she can last.
She had thought about leaving this home countless times, but she was reluctant to Zhao Yu, she didn't want to give up their relationship. The days passed like this, and Lin Xiao's heart was full of contradictions and entanglements. She didn't know how to choose, whether to continue to endure her mother-in-law's troubles, or to leave the house and start her life anew.
Until one day, Lin Xiao finally made a decision. She decided to leave this home and leave Zhao Yu. She felt that she could no longer live like this, and that she needed to take responsibility for her future. When Lin Xiao told Zhao Yu about his decision, Zhao Yu was shocked. He didn't understand why Lin Xiao wanted to leave him, he felt that there was still a relationship between them, and it shouldn't end like this.
However, Lin Xiao had already made up her mind, and she didn't want to continue this life anymore. Lin Xiao left home and started a new life of his own. She found a new job and started her life anew. Although leaving Zhao Yu made her feel painful and reluctant, she knew that this was her only choice. After Zhao Yu lost Lin Xiao, he realized how important someone he had lost. He began to reflect on his actions and began to regret that he did not stand up for Lin Xiao.
He knew that it was his cowardice and inaction that led to Lin Xiao's departure.
From then on, Zhao Yu began to work hard to change himself. He is no longer as submissive as before, he has learned to face problems bravely and to work for his own happiness. He hopes that one day, he will be able to regain Lin Xiao's trust and love.
And Lin Xiao, after leaving Zhao Yu, gradually came out of the shadows. She began to re-examine her life and began to think about what she really wanted. She found that she had been living for others all the time, and had never really lived for herself once. After a period of thinking and precipitation, Lin Xiao finally understood his heart.
She decided to start over and live for herself. Instead of dwelling on the pain and hurt of the past, she is positive about the future and new challenges. The story of Lin Xiao and Zhao Yu allows us to see the beauty and helplessness of love. They used to love each other and gave everything for each other. However, when the difficulties of reality lie ahead, they have to make difficult choices. Their stories also make us understand that in love, we need to face problems bravely and firmly defend our happiness. Only in this way can we truly have a happy life.
