"Golden Wedding": After watching the failed marriages of 3 daughters, I found that parents are the source of the evil appearance of marriage.
The story of the Red Chamber has been talked about since ancient times, and this family tradition within the family is perhaps the real tragedy. The eldest son, the white-faced scholar Zhuang, the second son, the birthday star Lang Baoyu, and the third son, the farmer Mandarin Duck in Ba Jin Town, the marital status of the three brothers is a sad story. The eldest son, Crop Crop, and his wife, Mei Ying, were a sweet couple when they were young, however, the years are fleeting, and the trivialities and pressures of life gradually erode their love. The crops become nagging and harsh under the pressure of life, and Mei Ying has also lost her former splendor because she passively bears family responsibilities. And the birthday boy Lang Baoyu was forced to marry by his father and married a woman who didn't really love him. In the end, their relationship reached an impasse, and there were even suspicions of cheating. Although Mandarin Duck once had a good marriage, due to the trivialities of life and various misunderstandings, it finally ended in divorce. These three failed marriages make people wonder what the essence of marriage is, is it the triviality of life, is it the pressure of family, or the expectations of parents?
Of course, on the other hand, parents may not be the only reason why marriages fail. The lack of communication, understanding and support in these three marriages was also a fatal wound. Crop and Mei Ying drift apart because of the trivialities of life, but they forget the promise and love they once had for each other. What is lacking between Baoyu and his wife is not love, but trust and respect. And between Mandarin Duck and his ex-wife, they finally broke up because of a lack of communication and understanding. Perhaps, marriage is not a simple ceremony, but a long-term contract that requires the joint efforts, understanding and support of both parties.
Looking back on these three marriages, we can't help but ask, whether the parents' expectations are right or wrong? Are their expectations for the happiness of their children or to satisfy their own vanity? When we are faced with marriage, how should we understand and look at the expectations of our parents? Perhaps, only true understanding and support can make marriage go further and more stable.
Conclusion: Through the three marriage stories in "Golden Wedding", we see the challenges and confusions in marriage, and the influence of parents on their children's marriage. However, what can really make a marriage long-term happy is not only the expectations of parents, but also the understanding, support and communication of both parties. Every marriage has its own unique challenges, but only mutual understanding and mutual support can keep the flame of love alive. Therefore, when we face marriage, we might as well be more tolerant and understanding, more patient and tolerant, and perhaps, our marriage will be better.
