Why does Sun Shaoan marry He Xiulian? Has he ever loved He Xiulian? This is something that every reader is puzzled after reading "The Ordinary World".

On the contrary, most people believe that He Xiulian loves Sun Shaoan deeply. After all, it takes courage to accompany a man to endure poverty and misery no matter what age it is.

If it weren't for true love, everyone would choose to turn around and leave.

Why do most readers have to figure out Sun Shaoan's feelings for He Xiulian?

is nothing more than trying to prove through various clues that He Xiulian did not love the wrong person. She obviously had the opportunity to marry a better person, but she chose Sun Shaoan, who had nothing.

After marriage, she put all her efforts on the marriage. When her husband is in trouble, she will stretch out her hand, and when her husband is bullied, she will stand up.

and even after all her hard work, after accompany Sun Shaoan out of the whirlpool of poverty, she found that she was physically broken.

He Xiulian’s love is selfless and unreserved. As a reader, while being moved, I also hope that she can get the same love.

Only in this way, He Xiulian's life is not a tragedy.

Whether in love or marriage, it is always mutual. One-sided giving can only touch oneself. Two-way giving and sacrifice are a complete relationship.

Sun Shaoan loves He Xiulian or not, is it just a reader's obsession? No, it is more about seeking a perfection for this ordinary and ordinary marriage.

So, does Sun Shaoan love He Xiulian? Take a look at these details.

1: Before the wedding, the guilt and nostalgia for first love

Women and men have different concepts of marriage, and it is difficult for women to convince themselves to marry oneself For people who don’t love, a man is willing to marry a suitable but unfeeling woman.

For Sun Shaoan, Tian Runye is the untouchable true love, and He Xiulian is the right marriage partner.

The former is a person who amazed his time when he was young, and the latter is a person who wants to spend his life with himself as an adult. No matter who it is, it is difficult to give up.

However, compared with the former, the latter’s feelings are less pure.

Tian Runye once vowed to write down what she wanted to be with Sun Shaoan for a lifetime, but not long after she confessed, Sun Shaoan chose to get married.

Not so much a coincidence, it is Sun Shaoan who chose to escape.

Therefore, he went to the blind date in a resolute manner. Fortunately, after only one meeting, He Xiulian decided not to marry him.

The girl in front of me, although she has never gone to school, she looks handsome, simple and kind, and more importantly, don't pay a penny as a gift.

This is undoubtedly the gift that fate bestowed on Sun Shaoan. He not only couldn't ask for it, but was flattered.

Soon, the wedding was on the agenda, and Sun Shaoan was busy buying various things.

However, when he passed by the bridge where Run Ye had confessed to him, he would still think of the woman he couldn't love.

Why didn't he want to get close to the marriage with Runye, but he couldn't afford to bet, he couldn't guarantee that he could give Runye happiness, and he was not even sure that the relationship between the two could bridge the gap between them.

Because he couldn't afford to gamble, he accepted his fate.

Before getting married, when he walked through the bridge, he wanted to cry, not only to pay homage to the love he once had, but to express his guilt for Run Yeh.

In the final analysis, it was he who failed Run Ye, and it was also he who personally choked off this feeling.

The combination of Sun Shaoan and He Xiulian may not be because of love at the beginning. At least, in Sun Shaoan's view, this marriage without a gift or a new house is a suitable and value-for-money business.

Moreover, the ingredients that make Runye give up are still mixed in it.

is not a calculation, but compared to Sun Shaoan’s love for Tian Runye, He Xiulian’s marriage is mixed with too many will be weighed against interests.

2: At the first love wedding, the cherishment and gratitude to Xiulian

Zhang Ailing once said: "Perhaps every man has two women like this, married After the red rose, over time, the red one became a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, and the white one was still in the moonlight before the bed. Married to the white rose, the white one was just a sticky rice stick on the clothes, but the red one was for my heart. A cinnabar mole."

But when this sentence is placed on Sun Shaoan, it seems a bit out of place.

Maybe Sun Shaoan got married for the sake of getting married at first, but after he got married, he more and more found out He Xiulian's goodness.

Soon after he got married, He Xiulian went to work behind her husband and treated her husband’s family as his relatives. Every day before going to bed, he would boil hot water for her spouse’s feet.

This wife is only in the sky, and it is rare to hear about it in the world.

Sun Shaoan didn't know the blessings in the blessing, but saw all this in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.

Especially seeing Xiulian's actions when he learned that Run Ye was about to get married, made him feel that he had a wife like this, and that Sansheng was lucky.

Sun Shaoan wanted to give a decent and expensive wedding gift. After all, when he got married at that time, Run Ye made great efforts in giving gifts.

However, his marriage has almost emptied his family, and now he can't afford to buy gifts.

Just when he was helpless, He Xiulian extended a helping hand: "My dad left me fifty dollars before he left. I was planning to sew a big cloak for you. Put it in the box, you can just take it all and buy something decent for someone!"

Generous, decent, and considerate for your own sake. With a wife like He Xiulian around, how can Sun Shaoan not know enough?

When he was willing to tell He Xiulian about Run Ye's marriage and he didn't know how to give gifts, he already said that he had already let go of the past.

Many times, the reason why a man is obsessed with his past lover is not because of how good the old person is, but because he cannot see how good the new person is.

And Sun Shaoan gradually let go of his obsession with the past because he was immersed in the gentle village Xiulian woven for him.

Even if the person he loved was Tian Runye at the beginning, he would eventually feel the other person’s love for him in his marriage and fall in love with He Xiulian again and again.

三: After the two quarreled, their distress and comfort to Xiulian

No matter how perfect marriage, the quarrel cannot be avoided after all. When the days were poor, the two cuddled with each other and rarely quarreled. After they became rich, the conflicts between the couple began to become prominent.

Xiulian wants to build a new house and split the family, but Sun Shaoan firmly disagrees.

When the two of them were red-faced, Sun Shaoan raised his fist in a fit of anger.

Xiulian was naturally not to be outdone: "You fight, you fight."

burst into tears while talking angry. When the sword was at war, Sun Shaoan saw his wife's face that had become rough due to long-term labor, and thought of everything his wife had done for the family. Instantly, he felt soft.

put away his fists and began to wipe away the tears for his wife.

On the one hand, as a husband, the responsibility of satisfying the wishes of the wife, on the other hand, as a son, carrying the burden of the native family. Sun Shaoan wants to achieve both, but unfortunately, he can't do both.

In order to appease his wife, Sun Shaoan had to compromise and agree to a new kiln first.

Many people think that Sun Shaoan is too partial to his native family, so he can't be called a good husband, let alone his wife Xiulian.

However, for people like Sun Shaoan, who have suffered since childhood and personally experienced the bitterness of raising a family, how can they put all their feelings in their marriage?

Even, he cherishes and loves his native family more than he loves himself.

In other words, even if he loves He Xiulian deeply, he cannot put his husband and wife relationship above his native family.

Sun Shaoan is a sensible person. For him, taking responsibility is more important than expressing love, and taking care of the overall situation is more important than pleasing his wife.

Therefore, Sun Shaoan's love is full of restraint and tolerance. He didn't want to put all his thoughts on his wife and children, but he had no choice but to make money to support his family and lead the family out of poverty.

Regrettably, he thought he would have a long future in Japan. He could not survive the impermanence of the world, and finally completed his mission, but learned the fact that his wife has cancer.

In the end, half a lifetime of companionship, could not wait for a lifetime to stay together.

I don’t need to study the matter of love or not, just like Zhang Ailing said: "Maybe love is not passion or miss, but years and years have become part of life."

Sun Shaoan loves He Xiulian, but his love, wanting to do whatever he wants, is too difficult.
