"The War of the Roses", as the name suggests, is a story about women's growth and transformation after experiencing various difficulties in life through their own efforts.
Among the many female characters in the drama, Gu Nian and Ling Yi should be the two women who have gained the most favor from the audience. As lawyers, they have the correct outlook on life, outstanding abilities, and perseverance. Such lawyers are successful. Sooner or later.
But as women, when it comes to relationships and marriage, their attitudes and choices are very different. We cannot judge what is right and what is wrong, but judging from most results, Gu Nian's blindness is more vulnerable to harm, which makes Yi's sobriety is more capable of self-protection and self-satisfaction.
Gu Nian's marital betrayal was not new news for stay-at-home wives. Fortunately, she knew how to format and restart in time to start a new life.
However, it is very difficult for a middle-aged woman who has not worked for many years to return to the workplace, but Gu Nian has the halo of the heroine, and when she is in the most difficult time, there is an excellent Fengyun who helps her arrange work, and both Her career also gave her love, but her luck was due to the heroine's halo, which did not meet the conditions for reference in reality.
Therefore, when she saw Weiwei choosing to quit her job to become a full-time housewife in order to get married, she was a little worried for her, worried that she would have the same result as herself. However, she could not interfere too much in other people's lives and choices. The hesitation to speak is due to this inner conflict.
In fact, it’s not that men are untrustworthy or marriages are untrustworthy, but that not all men are trustworthy. Women should not make too many sacrifices and become dependent on men. Such a bet is too big. In the end, The wrong thing is to give up your career and cut off your own future.
Of course men like girls like Gu Nian and Weiwei. People are selfish. Everyone hopes that the one who makes sacrifices in the family is their significant other, so that they can fly high and be proud of themselves.
However, how long can a man be moved by this kind of sacrifice and how long can he be loyal? Facts have proved that it will not take long, and even they will feel that women's sacrifice is natural.
all said that women should not ignore their own feelings too much to help men or their families. Everyone’s feelings are feelings, no matter how high or low they are. Just do what you want, as long as it is right.
In this regard, Lingyi’s sobriety towards marriage can be said to be beyond the reach of Gu Nian. This is the gap.
Lingyi has never been married. It’s not that she doesn’t want to get married, but that she is too good and there are too few outstanding men who can match her. Among these few men who can match her, if there are any delusions about marriage. She will leave without hesitation anyone who changes her. This is her rare sobriety.
Originally, she had already reached the stage of discussing marriage with the doctor, but after just one meal, she changed her mind because the doctor wanted her to go to Germany with him and wanted her to give up her career and be alone. She worked as a full-time wife for him in an unfamiliar place and stayed at home to raise her husband and children.
Some men are really selfish and cruel. When choosing a mate, they often choose a woman who is as good as him, thinking that a capable woman is a better match for them.
However, they then used marriage and family as an excuse to break women's high-flying arms, turning them into family "slaves" and depriving them of the possibility of career success. This is a waste of nature.
Gu Nian was also a very good lawyer at the time, otherwise Fengsheng would not have forgotten her, but Song Jiachen broke her arm and then betrayed her. If she had not given up her career at the beginning, she might not be worse off than Song Jiachen now.
Lingyi's sobriety is that she has never thought about giving up her career, and she has never thought that anyone can change her life. She knows very well what she wants and what she insists on. This is the relationship between Gu Nian and her. The difference lies.
Lingyi's sobriety and decisiveness are really admirable. She once said to Song Jiachen that her greatest advantage is to make prompt decisions. If someone tries to threaten her or change her, I'm sorry, but she cannot give in. Song Jiachen's threats won't work, and neither will the doctor's "abduction"!
