In the ancient Tang Dynasty, there was a couple, the man was named Li Yi, and the woman was named Wan'er. The two have known each other since childhood, childhood sweethearts, and even tied the knot when they became adults, becoming a model couple in the eyes of everyone. However, their married life was not as harmonious as it seemed, but was full of frequent quarrels.
Li Yi was born in a scholarly family, read poetry and books since childhood, and is talented, but his personality is a little arrogant. Wan'er was born in a family of businessmen, smart and clever, good at management, but her personality is a little stubborn. Although the two have very different personalities, they appreciate each other, and they respect each other even more after becoming husband and wife. However, as time went on, the quarrels between the two became more frequent.
One day, Li Yi was studying hard in the study, while Wan'er was embroidering flowers on the side. The two were busy separately and did not disturb each other. However, a mischievous butterfly flew into the study and landed on Wan'er's embroidery. Seeing this, Wan'er smiled lightly and reached out to catch the butterfly. Unexpectedly, the butterfly flew to Li Yi's book, and Li Yi missed for a moment and knocked the book to the ground.
"How could you be so careless?" Li Yi frowned and reproached.
"It's just a butterfly, so why are you so angry?" Wan'er retorted with some dissatisfaction.
The two of them said a word, and the quarrel became louder and louder. Such quarrels have become commonplace in their lives. However, they never thought about what the root of these quarrels was.
One day, Li Yi's friend Zhang Gongzi came to visit. Zhang Gongzi saw that the two were arguing, so he persuaded: "You husband and wife are a match made in heaven, why do you quarrel so often?" ”
Li Yi sighed and said, "Although we have different personalities, we respect each other. However, we always quarrel over small things, and I am very confused. ”
Zhang Gongzi pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps, you need to understand each other more deeply. Husband and wife should not only respect each other, but also understand and tolerate each other. ”
After Li Yi heard this, his heart suddenly brightened. He began to try to understand Wan'er's thoughts and feelings, and Wan'er began to learn to appreciate Li Yi's talent and character. The two began to try to empathize and face each other's differences with a more tolerant attitude.
One day, Li Yi read a poem in his study: "The piano is harmonious, and the music is harmonious." He suddenly realized that the quarrel between himself and Wan'er might be because they couldn't really live in harmony with each other. So, he decided to invite Wan'er to play the piano and music together, and use the sound of the piano to enhance their relationship with each other.
As the two sit in front of the piano and their fingers caress the strings, they feel as if they have entered a whole new world. The melodious sound of the piano seems to be able to travel through time and space, bringing them back to the spring when they met. They stared at each other with affection and gratitude in their eyes.
Since then, the two have begun to learn the art of the piano together, using the sound of the piano to communicate with each other's hearts. Their quarrels are less and less, and in their place there is more laughter and warmth. They finally understand that the high state of husband and wife life is not without quarrels, but learning to understand and tolerate in quarrels, and resolving all contradictions with love.
This story spread throughout the Tang Dynasty and became a good story. People have lamented that the quarrels between husband and wife are not terrible, but the lack of understanding and tolerance is terrible. Only by truly knowing how to cherish each other's feelings can we go further and further on the road of marriage.
Finally, the story of Li Yi and Wan'er gives us a profound enlightenment: in the life of husband and wife, we must learn to resolve conflicts with understanding and tolerance, and nourish each other's hearts with love. Only in this way can we truly enjoy the happiness and fulfillment that marriage brings.
