In the popular family drama "Parents' Love", a female figure that has attracted much attention is Lao Ding's ex-wife Wang Xiu'e. She appears in the limelight in a unique way – that is, she is always disheveled and has an open collar. Many people may wonder why she is always disheveled instead of being dressed appropriately. However, behind this detail is Wang Xiu'e's helpless life situation.
Wang Xiu'e's life is full of bitterness and misfortune. She was three years older than Lao Ding, and was engaged to Lao Ding by her family, and was forced to become a virtuous peasant woman. However, in the era of feudal ideology at that time, women lacked the right to make their own choices. She had to obey her parents' arrangement, marry someone she didn't love, and silently serve her in-laws, conscientiously taking on the roles of wife and mother.
Despite her limited education, she still gave birth to four sons for Lao Ding. However, when she gave birth to her last child, she died painfully due to dystocia, and her short life came to an abrupt end, and her sacrifice and hard work were not recognized and respected by Lao Ding.
Wang Xiu'e gave everything for the family, but she could not get her husband's understanding and respect. Lao Ding has a squeamish temperament and often preaches her, as if he is disciplining a naughty child. Wang Xiu'e knew that in Lao Ding's eyes, her raunchy image was undoubtedly dwarfed by that gentle An Jie. Moreover, she is so busy with housework that she has no time to take care of her appearance, let alone please her husband's eyes.
Although sometimes she shows her unease with Lao Ding, deep down she still cherishes her husband and hopes that he can live a good life. However, her ragged clothes are not entirely for personal reasons. In fact, she also wants to dress up beautifully, but the children and housework make it impossible for her to take care of her image.
She is very busy raising four children, and she does almost all the housework by herself. Years of hard work caused her to loosen the buttons of her clothes frequently, and gradually, it became a habit. Her open collar is a hint at the hardships of her life: she is bogged down by family chores that make it difficult for her to find time and energy to care about her appearance.
Wang Xiu'e's fate has made her always passively bear the pressure and suffering of life. She had to endure being ignored and bullied, giving herself to herself, but never thinking about herself. However, even with everything she had, she did not receive the gratitude of her husband and family, and instead became a nobody in the family.
Eventually, in agony, she ended her short and unfortunate life. When we see Wang Xiu'e overwhelmed by life, we can't help but feel sad for the fate of women. In those days, women were often confined to the family and lost their dignity and rights.
As spectators, we should learn from this: husbands and wives should respect and trust each other, rather than blindly suppressing their wives; Every member of the family deserves to be loved and respected, and not to be sacrificed by others.
