The wife "Min" in "The Death of My Wife", as an outstanding graduate of Tulane University, gave up her American work permit, returned to Shanghai, and married "me", the husband of a doctor of liberal arts in the system who graduated from Peking University. They had two daughters, then a third in 2019, and the family immigrated to Canada to avoid China's domestic family planning policies.
The whole family of five is trapped in Canada, his wife "Min" works non-stop every day, the husband of the doctor of liberal arts has no driver's license, no work permit, and most of the outside affairs have to be done by his wife Min, in addition to taking care of three children, he also has to take care of his husband who does not have any survival skills, and he is busy like a spinning top.
It can be seen that in this family, outside the female protagonist and inside the male protagonist, Min is responsible for making money to support the family, and the man is responsible for sleeping at home and raising flowers, and all the accounts and passwords in the family are kept by Min alone, so that he suffered from lung cancer at the age of 37, hydrocardium, and died in a hurry, leaving three children struggling in the world, the eldest daughter is 10 years old, the second daughter is 8 years old, and the third son is 3 years old. Min is gone, this family is even more difficult, except for the whole two paragraphs of nostalgic texts, the doctor of liberal arts does not have much social value, and he has no ability to make money!
I really don't understand, why did such a family have three children? Why emigrate? Toss and turn, throw your life in a foreign land, and leave your soul to hate!
Through the protagonist "Min", you can see her anxiety, one is the anxiety of having three children, she has given birth to two daughters, why do you still insist on having three children?2019 domestic family planning policy, you can have a second child, but the three-child policy has not been released, as an elite female returnee, studying in the United States for many years, Min should not have patriarchal discrimination, think about it, it should come from the husband's persistence and persistence, so in order to give birth to a third child, the whole family immigrated to Canada.
As everyone knows, life has hard injuries, and for liberal arts students, in fact, there is no better choice than entering the system. Therefore, the husband of the doctor of liberal arts left the system, and he was in a foreign country with limited ability to survive. In fact, the words that I think I take as the norm can't be sold for a few dollars, not to mention that my husband hasn't even taken a driver's license.
I was a liberal arts student at Peking University, and after graduation, I made money by writing essays and selling words, and I was so poor in Beijing that I couldn't even afford a house. Liberal arts students have to combine with other industries to be expected to find a way out. Undoubtedly, Min's husband, the liberal arts doctoral student, was even worse, he couldn't even take off Kong Yiji's robe, and when he went to a foreign country where he was unfamiliar with his life, he still died to save face, suffered crimes, and couldn't earn half a piece of silver.
From 2019 to 2023, in just four years, Min has been working hard for a family of five, and has not been able to rest and recuperate for a long time, in a sub-health state, the disease has taken the opportunity to invade and cause cancer, it can only be said that Min is too unlucky, a serious illness will die, life is impermanent, and there is only sighing.
Through the story of "Min" and "I", people feel a lot:
First, Min and her husband had three children, even as a Chinese Canadian, it is extremely great, and I praise them for their courage and responsibility.
I don't know when it began, giving birth to a second child is quite difficult for Chinese people. With the development of urbanization, too many people have moved into the city, and they could have stayed in the countryside, built a house, married a daughter-in-law for their son, and lived comfortably. However, under the coercion of capital, they were forced to enter the city, spending all the savings of their grandparents and grandchildren and their future income, and exhausting all their minds and bodies to support a reinforced concrete house. Even if we tighten our belts, it is difficult for three generations of grandparents and grandchildren to support this house, not to mention "education", which is a game of great competition for money! Where do you have the energy and money to raise a second child, and the third child is even more like a dream, and it is unattainable.
In such a context, Min and her husband had the courage to give birth to a child, which really beat countless Chinese people. Thinking about it carefully, the reason why they dare to give birth to a child is mostly based on the absolute crushing of IQ, a female returnee with a master's degree from Tulane University, and a liberal arts man with a doctorate from Peking University, with their strong combination, the two should stand at the top of the food chain in this world and become the elite and top of this society.
However, unfortunately, the reality slapped them in the face, after immigrating to Canada, the liberal arts man had a hard time surviving and couldn't earn money at all, and the master's female returnee tried her best to barely make a living for her family and lost her love for love. It can only be said that it is difficult to raise a baby, it is even more difficult to raise three babies, and it is difficult to go to the sky with three babies.
This world has forced out the lives of returnee female masters, and let people not live!
Second, liberal arts are a pit, and they have no advantages except for talking about it. You see that the "I" in the article are all doctors of liberal arts, and even Peking University, but I have nothing to do, and I can't even support myself, let alone raise my children and others.
Historically, the best way out for liberal arts students is to enter the system, which is the same everywhere, or to become a lawyer, and there seems to be no other way out.
Liberal arts students who have not entered the system are often miserable after old age and decay. Self-starting? is tantamount to a fantasy, write a few words, earn some remuneration, it is good to be able to support your family, and how many people write words that will be famous for centuries? A Tang family three less, a silkworm potato, almost half of the world's remuneration, most of the people died at dawn, or on the eve of dawn, a few grains, simply rely on writing words to make money to talk about little, don't see the dream of getting rich overnight as the story of most people, and don't use a few dreams of getting rich to cover up the desolation of liberal arts students, liberal arts students, in addition to the soaring career of the career, are useless in other fields are scholars.
Liberal arts are useless, so it's the same as a pawn and peddler on the street, shaking his lips and puffing his tongue, walking through the streets and alleys, and not having a round belly in vain, worry-free about food and clothing, but on the contrary, I can't take off Kong Yiji's robe in the story, and I can't lose the face of a scholar, so I can only starve to death in Canada.
The female elite of returnees is dead, the man with a doctor of liberal arts has also come to the end of the road, "The Death of My Wife" has no good ending, and the rest of the people have to continue to hurry, but where is the way out?
Life is so hard!
