Why should women in marriage have to endure, sacrifice, and support men?

Shen Qingge recalled that throughout her childhood, she had seen her mother hide in her room and silently shed tears countless times, but never showed it in front of outsiders.

Because of his grandmother, because of his father's work troubles, because of the children's disobedience, or because of all sorts of strange things, his father could always find a reason to lose his temper.

The mother always swallowed her anger and tried to keep the peace.

My father even had other women when he was young. He would leave early and return late, treating the family home like a hotel, and sometimes he would even stay out overnight.

In the end, the woman outside donated some money and left.

When the father returned to the family, the mother still chose to be tolerant and forgiving.

Now that my father is older, he's gradually settled down and learned to care for others.

My parents' marriage is slowly getting better again.

In public, they are an enviable couple.

But Shen Qingge always remembered her mother's young yet sorrowful face and her suppressed sobs at night.

A voice inside her was asking: Is it worth it?

A woman spends the most youthful and beautiful years of her life enduring hardship and repression for the sake of her children and marriage, living a miserable and miserable existence.

Most of his life was filled with suffering, and the best years of his life passed by just like that.

Is it really worth it to have a happy ending for the elderly?

My mother was lucky; she was fortunate enough to finally have the so-called happy ending.

But what about those women who endured it until their deaths?

What about women whose bodies can't wait, those with breast cancer or cervical cancer?

A surge of anger welled up in Shen Qingge's heart. She didn't understand why women would act this way.

Why should you sacrifice your happiness and endure all the grievances for a man and a family?

She didn't understand why women couldn't have their own pursuits or their own happiness.

She wanted to tell her mother that she didn't want to be like her, that she didn't want to sacrifice her happiness for a man who didn't love her, for a loveless marriage.

She wanted to tell her mother that she wanted to pursue her own happiness and that she wanted to find someone who truly loved her.

However, she knew that her mother would not understand her thoughts.

More importantly, she is now very uneasy and full of uncertainty.

The man she married seemed to be even more terrifying than her father, and she had no idea what the future held.

She really didn't want to argue with her mother anymore, so she just nodded to the doctor to appease him and then walked out.

When Shen Qingge arrived in the living room, she saw her father chatting with Haize with a beaming smile.

The two sat on the sofa in the living room, sipping tea and chatting.

Shen Zejun said excitedly, "Haize, Qingge was such a quirky little devil when she was little. I remember once, when she was about three or four years old, we had a kitten, and she loved it so much."

One day, she suddenly said to me, "Dad, I want to make a new home for the cat." I thought to myself, "What new idea is this child up to now?"

Just then, Shen Qingge walked over and sat down next to Haize. Haize naturally took Shen Qingge's hand and gave her a gentle smile: "Oh? So what kind of nest did she make?"

Shen Zejun continued, "Qingge ran into the yard and found some planks, nails, and a small hammer."

She pieced the wooden planks together, hammering and banging, and actually made a little nest for the cat.

Although the little shelter looked very simple, Qingge was very proud of it. She placed it in a sunny spot in the yard and would go there to check on the cat every day.

Haize looked at Shen Qingge with loving eyes and said softly, "Qingge was so kind-hearted even when she was little. It's really touching."

Shen Qingge's feelings were very complicated.

On the one hand, she didn't expect her father to be here talking about her childhood, his tone full of pride.

She remembered the kitten and the little house. But hearing her father talk about it with such love in his voice felt very different.

An elderly father telling his son-in-law stories about his daughter's childhood is a beautiful thing in itself.

However, because of Haize's performance last night and this morning, Shen Qingge felt very uneasy and also found it very ironic.

His timely attendance at the homecoming banquet and his excellent behavior only intensified Shen Qingge's unease.

Shen Zejun was in high spirits today and continued, "Another time, when Qingge was about five or six years old, she saw me pruning the flowers and plants in the yard, and she ran over to me and said, 'Dad, I want to try too.'"

I thought to myself, "What new thing does this child want to learn now?" So I prepared a small pair of scissors for her and taught her how to trim the flowers and plants.

"Qingge's initial trimming wasn't very good, but she was very diligent and learned little by little. After a while, she suddenly said to me, 'Dad, I've discovered a secret!'"

I asked her what the secret was, and she mysteriously told me, "I've discovered that whenever I trim the plants neatly, they become even more beautiful!"

When I heard that, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but I also thought the child was really adorable.

At this moment, Shen's mother also came out.

Looking at the scene in the living room, he felt very happy and continued, "Qingge has been spoiled by us. She's quite willful, and Haize will have to be more tolerant of her in the future."

"Mom, don't worry, I'll definitely pamper my own wife. Besides, Qingge is very sensible and won't do anything excessive, right?"

Haize spoke in a doting tone, finally fixing his gaze on Shen Qingge.

Shen Qingge had no choice but to maintain her smile and mechanically nod.

She knew her parents wanted her to be closer to Haize, but their marriage wasn't as harmonious and happy as it seemed on the surface.

Looking at Haize's gentle smile, which seemed so fake, a bitter feeling welled up in her heart.

The more skilled he was at acting, the more Shen Qingge sensed a dangerous aura.

As night deepened, Haize looked at Shen Qingge and said, "It's getting late, so I'll head back now and pick you up tomorrow."

According to the custom of the homecoming banquet, the daughter is required to stay at her parents' home for one night.

The son-in-law came to pick her up the next day.

Shen Qingge nodded, and the Shen couple got up and followed Shen Qingge to see Haize off to the villa entrance.

Shen Zejun patted Haize on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Haize, we're entrusting Qingge to you. We're at ease. We hope you two can support each other and live a good life together. Be careful on your way back."

Haize nodded and said earnestly, "Dad, don't worry, I will take good care of Qingge."

The driver drove up, and Haize got in the car, fastened his seatbelt, and even rolled down the window to say, "Goodbye, Dad and Mom. Qingge, get some rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow."
