It's not practical to maintain one's self-esteem when there is no food and no place to live. When Tess got into Ah Lake's carriage and went to work as a maid in his house, the old neighbor said that he had just left the volcano and jumped into the fire. However, Tess is pure and kind and has no sense of self-protection, plus her original family who can't open the pot and is vain, Ah Lake wicked away her chastity, and the self-respecting Tess is unwilling to be a lover and insists on going home but is not accepted by her parents. The child died soon after, and fled his village to work in a dairy factory. He thought he would meet his real son, but Tess tried to tell the truth about her birth several times before her marriage, but she thought she could grasp the happiness in her hand (if Tess now You can be brave and tell Angel the truth firmly, will the ending be different), and finally, on the wedding night, she told each other that she was rejected and abandoned in the past. Tess could accept that Angel had lived with a woman before marriage, but Angel could not accept such a Tess, Does Angel love herself more, preferring to love the imaginary and pure Tess, rather than accepting the reality of Tess who has given birth to a child, (I feel ironic seeing this, men can read countless people, women can only keep their chastity Only then was she considered a good woman, and she would even be rejected and abandoned because she had no chastity.) Since then, Tess had to work hard to support herself, and sneered in the face of Ah Lake's invitation again, and was unwilling to be his lover again, the kind and strong Tess. Si always believed that Angel would come back to find herself. When she was really at a loss, she thought about looking for her father-in-law and mother-in-law. For the sake of dignity, she changed her dirty shoes and put them on the side of the road, but she didn't wait. But he deliberately ignored it), but in the end he went back by himself, and the shoes on the side of the road were also picked up by others. Here, seeing that the shoes are gone, why not go back, Tess has a weak personality. In the end, without waiting for Angel, when the family was displaced, Tess once again compromised with Alek. Thinking it was over, Angel came back to give Tess hope again, and finally stabbed Alek to death. Perhaps in Tess' view, all these tragedies were Alek's fault. Without Alek, she would have lived together with Angel, but what she didn't know was that from her decision to follow her parents' arrangements, Entering Alek's house and eating the strawberry began, and the tragedy happened.
