Preface
Looking back now, I can't help but sigh for a while, six years ago, these twin sisters, one married a local and the other married a Chinese, they thought that their future lives would be similar, who would have thought that there would be such a gap.
Wang Xiuzhen is very glad that she chose to marry me and was able to come to China to live and live a happy life as a family of three.
So what is the difference between the two sisters after 6 years, and how did I meet the Vietnamese twin sisters?
Beautiful encounters
I was born in a rural area, I am an only child, my family has been a farmer for generations, and my parents have high expectations for me since I was a child, hoping that I can rely on my studies to get out of the countryside and achieve a career. I also lived up to my parents' expectations, my academic achievements were very good since I was a child, and I did not collapse in the college entrance examination year, and I was successfully admitted to a key university.
After graduating, I worked for a multinational trading company, and the company's main country was Vietnam, so I was able to travel back and forth between the two countries on business trips to Vietnam. It was also because of my work that I was able to meet the Vietnamese twins Wang Xiuling and Wang Xiuzhen.
I remember the first time I went to Vietnam on a business trip, and I signed a project with the accompanying leader, I was an assistant, and when I entered the company in Vietnam, the employees there looked at me and the leader, including the two Vietnamese sisters, after all, we were foreigners in Vietnam.
After signing the project, the leader said that I would take a day off, let me go to Vietnam for a good visit, and bring some souvenirs back to my parents.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiuling and Wang Xiuzhen sisters took the initiative to find me, saying that they were willing to be my tour guide and take me to play for a day, at first I wanted to refuse, but considering my own image, I still agreed to the two sisters. Both of them are obviously highly educated, their English is very good, and there is almost no barrier to communication between them and me.
On that day, the two sisters took me to wander around the streets, and I had nothing new about it, except that compared with the mainland, Vietnam was a little backward in terms of economy, and the urban sanitation was not very good, and the overall feeling of poverty and backwardness was a bit of a problem.
Fortunately, with the company of these two sisters, I was able to hold on to this day, go back to the hotel to rest in the evening, and when I said goodbye to the two of them at the door of the hotel, I couldn't help but sigh to the two sisters, saying that China is still good, and the lights are bright.
These words made my sister Wang Xiuzhen very curious, just like a child who had never seen the outside world, and asked me what China was like, when I talked about my country, I couldn't help but show a proud look on my face, telling Wang Xiuzhen about everything.
It can be seen that the two sisters listened very carefully, and from time to time they cheered, as if China was not what they expected. Since then, Wang Xiuzhen has often reached out to me, seemingly curious about me and China.
I also often travel to Vietnam on business to meet my two sisters, but my relationship with my sister Wang Xiuling is not too deep, that is, an ordinary colleague relationship, not a friend, and with frequent contacts, she is not strange to me.
The relationship with Wang Xiuzhen is getting better and better, every time I go to Vietnam, she has to invite me to dinner and go shopping with me, I can see that she seems to be interesting to me, but I have always kept my distance, after all, transnational love is not as good as I imagined.
Tie the knot
A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and my relationship with Wang Xiuzhen is above that of friends, and she seems to be very shy, never willing to express her heart in person, and always use things to prove it.
I'm twenty-three years old, and although I'm not too mature, my parents have begun to urge me to get married, so I can quickly find a girlfriend who can help me take care of the children while the old couple is still young.
I can only say that I am very speechless about this, after all, when I was in college, my parents kept telling me to study hard and not fall in love, and it was only a year before my parents' attitude ushered in a earth-shaking change.
So I quipped that it would be okay to find a Vietnamese daughter-in-law for my parents, and after a short silence, my mother immediately clapped her hands and said that as long as I wanted, I could go anywhere, and my father agreed.
This made me completely confused, I thought that my parents had a deep traditional concept, and it would be impossible to recognize a foreign daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be so simple, which also had to make me re-examine my relationship with Wang Xiuzhen to see if I wanted to go further.
As the saying goes, love lasts for a long time, and I am not an emotionless machine, Wang Xiuzhen saw all the goodness of me in my eyes, and finally made up my mind to manage this relationship well, and solemnly bid farewell to Wang Xiuzhen, and the two of us came together naturally.
After getting along for half a year, I feel more and more that my choice is correct, Wang Xiuzhen does not have a little bit of a woman's childishness, she is very capable, obviously my age is not much different from her, but she is like a big sister, taking care of me everywhere, trying to maintain our relationship.
But just as the wedding was approaching, my parents-in-law from Vietnam came forward, Wang Xiuzhen was born in a rural village in Vietnam, where the villagers had some unfriendly ideas about China, and her parents were deeply influenced by these ideas, and after learning of my identity, they firmly disagreed.
Wang Xiuzhen was obviously a disobedient child, and she insisted on being with me despite her parents' opposition, and a fierce quarrel broke out with her parents over this. I was caught in the middle, and I didn't know what to do for a while, so I could only secretly hope that my parents-in-law would finally compromise.
Later, Wang Xiuling also helped persuade her parents, saying that I am a very good man, and my sister will be very happy in China in the future.
In the end, Wang Xiuzhen was forced to run away from home, and the old couple agreed to the marriage, but one thing is that the wedding was not held in Vietnam, and he didn't want to bear the gossip of his neighbors. In this way, Wang Xiuzhen followed me to China and successfully joined my company.
I definitely can't afford to buy a house, so I have always rented a house with Wang Xiuzhen, and drove back to my hometown on weekends and holidays, and the neighbors were very envious of me for marrying such a beautiful foreign daughter-in-law. Later, my wife became pregnant, so I raised the baby in my hometown, and I worked alone to support my family.
Now it has been six years since we got married, we have a mixed-race baby boy, a family of three lives very happily, the next goal is to buy a suite in the city, and have a small family that belongs to us, but compared to my sister Wang Xiuzhen, my sister Wang Xiuling's marriage is not too happy.
Failed marriages
Not long after Wang Xiuzhen followed me to China, Wang Xiuling met a local man in Vietnam under the introduction of her parents, and the two seemed to fall in love at first sight, and soon agreed for life, but the marriage customs in Vietnam were more troublesome, and it took several months to successfully complete the marriage.
After getting married, Wang Xiuling also gave up her original job and followed her husband to live in her hometown, relying on stalls to make a living. What Wang Xiuling never expected was that her husband changed his usual routine after marriage, was very lazy, unwilling to go out to work, and relied on Wang Xiuling to set up a stall to make a living.
This is not the end, Wang Xiuling herself is a hardworking girl, and she can't help it when she meets such a husband, but her husband's next behavior can be regarded as completely touching her bottom line.
The husband doesn't leave the cigarette in his hand, and the betel nut doesn't leave his mouth, so he even wantonly squandered the money earned by Wang Xiuling's hard work to set up a stall, and took the money to fool around with a group of fox friends and dog friends outside, fortunately, he did not make a principled mistake, otherwise Wang Xiuling would never give up.
Wang Xiuling relied on stalls to make money after all, and she couldn't support her husband's high consumption behavior, so her husband began to think about how to make money, and I don't know which friend introduced him to him, and her husband actually learned to gamble.
At the beginning, I won some money, but the more I went on, the more wrong it became, and the money I planted in it was more and more, my husband borrowed from relatives and friends, and even took various loans, thinking about relying on gambling to turn over, but after all, he was still too naïve, and he lost all his money.
When the collection call came to Wang Xiuling, she learned that her husband had lost his gambling and lost his family, perhaps because her husband himself felt embarrassed, so he chose to end his marriage with Wang Xiuling and disappeared into Wang Xiuling's life.
After that, Wang Xiuling fell into a huge shadow, stayed in her mother's house for three months, closed all day, alone in the room, no one knew what she was doing, but in the end, after her father's persuasion, Wang Xiuling was able to face life again.
epilogue
Now that six years have passed, there is a huge gap between the living circumstances of the two sisters, and even their appearance has changed, the elder sister Wang Xiuling is becoming more and more faltered, her face looks old, and her younger sister Wang Xiuzhen is young and beautiful, and she doesn't look like a mother at all.
After her sister's divorce, Wang Xiuzhen also persuaded her, hoping that she would come to China to develop together, saying that Chinese men are very family-oriented and responsible, but Wang Xiuling has long lost any hope for marriage, and only wants to set up a stall and spend the rest of her life in peace.
