This is a love story between a rural rough man and a city woman.
Jiang Defu is a rural man who gained his abilities by joining the army, but in Anjie's eyes, he has been labeled as a big boss all his life.
As a woman who has lived in the city since childhood, Anjie looked down on Jiang Defu from the beginning.
She laughed at Jiang Defu, who pretended to have a pen in his jacket pocket even though he was illiterate, and pretended to be smart and saw through Jiang Defu's "trick".
She looked down on Jiang Defu's lack of education, and read the dandy as "a stubborn kid", and she couldn't stand Jiang Defu's lack of hygiene. Just after getting married, began to "transform" Jiang Defu, making his teammates call him "Three Cleansing Husband."
Anjie has lived a comfortable life since she was a child and has seen the big world in the city. The life she wants is to drink water from a cup and drink tea from a teacup. She is looking forward to a man who can wear a suit and tie and say "I love you" to her.
Jiang Defu spent his entire life without saying these three words to An Jie.
An Jie obviously looks down on Jiang Defu, why did she marry him?
vanity.
Anjie is the daughter of a capitalist and the lowest existence of that era. No one would take her seriously. Just like Anjie's sister-in-law said, she would avoid others when she went out to buy groceries for fear of being laughed at.
When she works in a hospital, she naturally suffers a lot of glares from others, and no one around her talks to her angrily. However, after Jiang Defu began to pursue her, everything changed.
An Jie is a woman with strong vanity. She doesn't like Jiang Defu. But she enjoyed the beauty of Jiang Defu chasing her. People in the hospital looked at her differently, with much more respect, and even started to use "you" when they spoke.
She enjoyed the beauty of An Xin calling her "officer's wife", so although she didn't like Jiang Defu, a rural roughneck, she still married him.
A woman with strong vanity is more likely to be moved by a prosperous life and inflated vanity than by love.
Urban women and rural women compete for men, and rural women lose miserably.
Jiang Defu said from the beginning that Zhang Guilan was the woman he married because his parents ordered him to be a matchmaker, and he had no choice but to marry her. It is an established fact that he does not like Zhang Guilan. Regardless of whether Zhang Guilan has done anything wrong or not, he does not like Zhang Guilan.
Zhang Guilan is a rural woman, much older than Jiang Defu. The two of them have no feelings together, but in the countryside of that era, there was no love. The two people got married just to carry on the family line.
Jiang Defu left Zhang Guilan as soon as he got married. After leaving for several years, Zhang Guilan married into the Jiang family like a nanny. Taking care of her parents-in-law and working in the fields were her daily cycle.
However, Zhang Guilan is a newly married woman after all. She does not need love, but she needs companionship. At this time, Jiang Defu's brother appeared in the same yard. He often helped her with her work and kept her company, and the two developed a relationship.
Some people say that love becomes family affection after being together for a long time, and companionship is far more important than love.
In the original work, Jiang Changyi asked Jiang Yaning a very fatal question: "Could it be that my mother was a womanly woman, so your father wouldn't abandon her and choose a city woman?"
Jiang Yaning in the book did not answer, and there is no answer to this question. , after all, there are no assumptions.
But in reality, there are indeed cases where women have been waiting in the countryside for decades while men have married other people.
Rural women did not lose to urban women, but to men who had emancipated their minds and wanted to pursue love. The asynchronous thinking of is destined for the two people to drift apart. This is the truth.
Rural people will always lose to urban people.
Even though Jiang Defu came to live in the city and experienced earth-shaking changes under Anjie's "transformation", he still couldn't get rid of the reality that he was born in the countryside, such as the group of relatives from the countryside.
They visited Jiang Defu's house as if they were going to the market. When they arrived at Jiang Defu's house, they would shout, "It's so delicious to go to my third uncle's house." At Jiang Defu's house, they ate more than they would have liked to eat in the countryside. When I left, I also took away a towel.
An Jie disliked them because they were not hygienic when eating, talked loudly, and smacked their lips while eating. This embarrassed Jiang Defu and even cured Jiang Defu's eating problems.
But as Jiang Dehua said, this group of rural relatives did not receive much favor, nor did they enjoy Jiang Defu's blessings.
What is different from the play is that in the original work, Jiang Defu also has many rural relatives. Their biggest need for Jiang Defu is to come to their house for a big meal and then take away some things.
However, Anjie's family is different. They are always very polite. When they come to the island, they bring many things that are not found on the island, which actually embarrasses Anjie's family.
However, these urban relatives receive far more favors than their rural relatives. They seem to have gotten nothing, and even got a lot of things, but in fact their children have been assigned jobs.
Jiang Defu's urban relatives have received benefits and will not be disliked. On the contrary, those rural relatives who are always thinking about the small profits in front of them seem to have taken a big advantage, but in fact they have gained nothing and are despised by Anjie's family.
When rural men turn over, they will fall for the "cabbage" of big cities.
Jiang Defu, Lao Ding, and Wang Zhenbiao, they all have a common identity, that is, they are successful men from the countryside.
From living in rural areas to big cities, they understand that vision and structure have a profound impact on a person. After their wives in the countryside passed away, they all wanted to marry a city woman.
Jiang Defu met An Jie at a dance on the grounds that his parents ordered him to be a matchmaker, and launched a fierce offensive against her, eventually marrying a city woman.
After the death of Wang Haiyang's mother, Wang Zhenbiao married the educated Ge Meixia. Although the two people once disliked each other, they finally got together because they had different needs.
After Wang Xiu'e's death, Lao Ding wanted to marry an educated woman. He fell in love with Ge Meixia and the dentist successively, but in the end they failed to get together and was forced to marry Jiang Dehua, a woman who had lived in the city for a long time.
Three men married women from the city for different reasons.
After the country pig became famous, he determined to conquer the cabbage in the big city.
Urban women laughed at their big, rough men, and rushed to snatch them away, because these big, rough men could bring them a better life.
And how pitiful are those women who stay in the countryside?
As the times progress, today in history, perhaps we should remember that there is a group of women who have made contributions in the past.
Jiang Dehua is annoying as soon as she appears. Her rural habits and thoughts always make people dislike her.
However, after living in the city for a long time, she will also change. When Lao Ding really couldn't find an educated woman to be his wife, he and Jiang Dehua lived very well together.
The problem has never been with rural or urban people, but with the living environment.
As for treating them, maybe we should have more understanding and care.
