She used to have a little pity for S. She was charming, selfish, vain, and beautiful. All men were crazy about it, but she laughed at it. The former bitch, for love, was able to keep her body for 5 years after all.
I remember Reid's comment on Scarlett in Gone with the Wind: "To those who love you, it's so cruel, you grab their love and wave them on their heads like a whip"
S is such a woman, for The suitors, she seduces them, then watches them go mad for herself, only to laugh and turn them away. She indulged in such a game of men and women, took pleasure in it, and was the victor until she met T.
Her biggest achievement in her life was marrying T, and her biggest failure was also marrying T.
Maybe she likes him, thinking that wayward children are always thinking about toys they never got. But I always think that even if S loves T, she must love herself the most. She wants T to pay attention to her, to be obsessed with her, to be crazy about her, to do whatever she wants, just like other men, but unfortunately T is not other men.
So she made him 'happy to be a father', she threw a bowl at him, she satirized him, threatened him, deliberately angered him, gave him a green hat, and ruined his reputation, only hoped that he would respond, scold her, be angry, even if Just a complaint, he didn't. He silently accepted everything she 'given', like a gentleman, even in bed!
The biggest harm is not quarrel, but indifference!
I remember in episode 4, after S's confession, T was touched. At that time, he hit the person who broke into the room.... (I forgot the name of a certain mistress), S sat on the bed and giggled. Smile, full of joy and pride, thinking that T is finally jealous, loves her, and wants to protect her. But all this is just a misunderstanding. I believe T was really touched at that time, but hitting that man can only be regarded as safeguarding his last dignity as a man, and it has nothing to do with love. Even if there was love, I am afraid that it has fermented and changed because of the deep depression.
When S asked T why it took two weeks for him to come after the war procedures were completed, did he mess with V? T raised his eyes lightly and said calmly, because I went to the hospital. At this moment, T was afraid that he was completely disheartened. And S paused, froze, and seemed to regret it, but it was too late. Her words not only extinguished T, but also made me feel completely chilled for S.
Love is understanding, respect, and concern, not a chasing after you, nor a game of 'whoever gets serious first loses', nor is it that you punch me and I slap you back.
S doesn't understand, so she doesn't deserve love and doesn't have the ability to love others.
In the end, T and V were together, and V silently received his former comrades-in-arms, and they finally embraced each other. At this moment, T's heart is finally calm, and he can enjoy the happy life of mortals. After S's love like a storm, the scarred T can finally enjoy the tranquility of boating in the heart of the lake.
I am really relieved.
