The pair of "chivalrous couples" in the title of "The Condor Heroes" refers to Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, who are the heroes and heroines of the book, but when you open this work for the first time, you see that the baby Yang Guo in Mu Nianci's arms has become a handsome teenager, and I can't help but think that this work will revolve around the descendants of Guo and Yang's families, and Yang will most likely marry Guo Jing's daughter to continue the fate of the two families.
In fact, in the follow-up plot, Yang Guo and Guo Jing's two daughters did have many ambiguous interactions, but his attitude towards the two sisters was slightly different, for Guo Fu, he loved him deeply, and for Guo Xiang, it seems that it is only the brother's concern for his sister, not love.

Obviously, Guo Fu is arrogant and brainless, Guo Xiang is smart and lovely, but Yang Guo loves Guo Fu, but he doesn't love Guo Xiang?
1. Yang Guo and Guo Fu
said that Yang Guo loves Guo Fu, some people may disagree with this view, after all, after reading along the plot of the original book, it seems that Yang Guo has never cared about his aunt Xiaolongnu.
Actually, no, a person's mouth will deceive, but the heart will honestly say everything.

Even if Yang Guo and Guo Fu had many conflicts in childhood, but it was just a playful play between children, when they all grew up as young people, their attitudes towards each other were different, although they were still a little arrogant, but they couldn't help but be shy of each other's eyes.
For example, this description vividly expresses the ambiguity between young men and women: "When Yang Guo saw her smile like this, it was like a rose suddenly blooming, bright and delicate, and his heart didn't move, his face was slightly red, and he turned his head away." Guo Fu has been at the mercy of the Wu brothers for a long time, and it has long been inappropriate, when he saw Yang Guo's expression, he knew that he had fallen for his beauty, and he was secretly proud. ”
One loves to show and the other loves to watch, it is impossible to say that Yang Guo has no good impression of Guo Fu.
And when Guo Fu was thrown in the fire by Li Mochou and was about to be burned to death, even the big and small martial arts and Yeluqi, who had always pursued Guo Fu, chose to stand by and watch, it was Yang Guo who made a move.
The book only said: "The fire between Xiaoxi and Guo Fu rushed two or three feet high, and the four of them knew that she was in a critical situation, but if they rescued each other in the past, they could only accompany her to their lives, and they would never save her." Guo Fu was so smoky that she fainted, and she was so frightened that she couldn't even cry, and suddenly she heard the sound of the east head whirring, turned her head, and saw a whirlwind wrapped in a gray shadow blowing quickly, the whirlwind was everywhere, and the flames parted to both sides, and it had blown in front of her in an instant. The figure in the wind is Yang Guo. ”

As Li Mochou said, "Ask what is the love in the world, and teach people to live and die", how is it not love to risk your life to save someone?
Later, during the Battle of Xiangyang, Yang Guo was desperate to save Guo Fu's husband, and the so-called "let her kneel" was just a joke.
All kinds of signs show that Yang Guo does have Guo Fu in his heart, but his arrogance does not allow him to bow to this woman, the two met each other at the wrong time, and they are destined to be lost, and they can only sigh that fate makes people.
Second, Yang Guo and Guo Xiang
Looking at Yang Guo and Guo Xiang again, the plot of "Sixteen Years Later" almost revolves around the two of them, when I first read this story, the author once thought that Jin Yong wanted to make up for the regrets of Yang Guo and Guo Fu in Guo Xiang, if Yang Guo and Guo Xiang can come together, it can be regarded as a continuation of the fate of Guo and Yang's two families.
But his attitude towards Guo Xiang has always been just that of a brother to his sister.
This can be seen from the plot after they jumped off the cliff.
If Guo Xiang wanted to see his true face at first, and asking him to come to his birthday banquet to celebrate his birthday was just his sister's coquettishness to his brother, then the wish Guo Xiang made at the bottom of the desperate valley is enough to prove that her feelings for Yang Guo are love.
She also proved with her practical actions that "what is love", and she is willing to make a promise to live and die with Yang.

If Yang Guo also loves Guo Xiang, he should turn around for Guo Xiang at this time, after all, he has been waiting for Xiaolongnu for sixteen years, and he has jumped off the cliff at this time, and he has not directly met Xiaolongnu at the bottom of the valley, he should calmly accept the fact that "Xiaolongnu is dead", accept Guo Xiang, it can be regarded as reconciliation with himself, and he does not have to live in the past.
But he didn't do it, he just sent Guo Xiang away, turned his head and continued to look for Xiaolongnu, at this time, Yang Guo did not accept Guo Xiang because of a momentary touch, and even if he didn't reunite with Xiaolongnu, most of them would not get together with Guo Xiang.
But why is that? Even Guo Fu's brutal woman can enter his eyes, how can Guo Xiang, who is reasonable and willing to give everything for him, be ignored by him?
Perhaps most people only see Guo Xiang's good, but not Guo Xiang's bad.
3. The other side of the Guo sisters
Let's talk about Guo Fu first, Yang Guo has a good impression of her, and it is also because the two have indeed lived together for a period of time and have an emotional foundation, and the two have been in love for a long time unconsciously, which is normal.
At the same time, Guo Fu is not useless, as the daughter of Guo Jing and his wife, she is a little chivalrous, whether it is facing the Golden Wheel Dharma King back then, or the later Xiangyang War, she has the consciousness of seeing death as home.
On the other hand, Guo Xiang, she is indeed generous to the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and she is also infatuated with Yang Guo, but the problem is that she always chooses the wrong answer in the face of really important decisions.
For example, when she mediated the conflict for Zhou Botong, Aunt Ying, and Yideng, she said this to Zhou Botong: "Guo Xiang listened in a daze, until Zhou Botong finished speaking, and saw that his face was full of shame, so he asked: 'In addition to Liu Guifei, how many concubines does the emperor have?'" 'Zhou Bodao: 'Although he is not as good as the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, he has three palaces and six courtyards, and dozens of concubines. Guo Xiang said: "Shine! He has dozens of concubines, and you don't even have a lady, he takes care of his friend's righteousness, he should give Liu Guifei to you. ’”

How can a person who really values feelings say such things? What is Aunt Ying's love in her eyes? At this moment, her image has collapsed, even if Yang Guo said that this Nizi is indeed evil and wins his heart, it is also in the position of a friend, how can such a woman be a lover?
Looking at Guo Jing and his wife and Guo Fu guarding Xiangyang, what is she doing? went out to look for Yang Guo, but fell into the hands of the Golden Wheel Dharma King, which almost made Guo Jing shake, and then led to the destruction of Xiangyang City, which she did was really selfish.
So Guo Fu can be regarded as missing a small section at most, and Guo Xiang is unreasonable and has lost his righteousness, and it is reasonable for Jin Yong to let Yang Guo fall in love with Guo Fu but not love Guo Xiang.
