The male protagonist Hawa fell in love with Hellen, a woman from the same village at a glance, when he was young. He was sent to the end of the world - Japan soon after his wedding, to find healthy and pure silkworm eggs. Their village made a living from the silk business. He traveled hard to reach a small village in Japan, and while doing business, he met a mysterious Japanese woman (later to add to the mystery, he explained that she was not Japanese and was the wife of the Chinese king, FT, pretending not to understand, The 72 concubines of the Three Palaces and Sixth Houses, which wife can escape?)
The snow-capped mountains are surrounded by misty hot springs, and in the middle of the clear water is a young woman, she does not speak, her skin is creamy, her eyes Clear and flawless, she slowly turned around, fascinated by the hero for half his life.
On the first trip, Hawa was tempted by a poisoned apple. He was deeply attracted by this Japanese woman. The "taboo" in the ancient fairy tale of the Garden of Eden always makes people long for it, and Hawa is no exception. The silkworm eggs were successfully brought back to France, and Hawa also had a wonderful journey. After he returned home, his life did not change, so when the second journey was put on the agenda, he went there happily, and it was another dewy morning. The sweet wife kissed him goodbye.
On the second trip, a Japanese businessman who had understood Hawa's mind, asked a woman to serve Hawa. Whether it was Hawa's teasing while taking a bath, or giving Xiaoji to enjoy the love of fish and water, the woman completely captured him. If the first Hawa was a spiritual derailment, this time it was a double derailment. With the woman's Japanese letterhead, he reluctantly returned to France. When he finally reached the door of the house, facing his delighted wife, he hesitated, and finally spit out "I will always love you" as if to atone for himself. Hawa did not forget the precious and mysterious letter, and finally found a Japanese woman in Paris to translate for him. The content of the letter was, come back, or I will die.
So Hawa stubbornly asked for a third journey. Because Japan has already started the war, the silk factory manager is not willing to take the risk of Hawa. They can choose silkworm eggs from other countries. This time, he was completely hopeless. The war prevented him from seeing women, nor did he bring back healthy silkworm eggs. He came back as a loser, he had to face his life again, and he was silent.
He received another letter from a woman, a lingering love letter, ending with "For your happiness, please forget me". Hawa finally begins to make up his mind to cut off the love thread and build the garden of her dreams for his sweet wife. Hellen had been unhappy, he knew, he still loved her, but the torture of red roses and white roses made him grow gray hair too. This white rose has been blooming for himself, until his only love is dying, he must live for her. When Hawa understood this, Hellen was seriously ill and bedridden. He tried to confess his secret several times but was rejected. How could a woman not be aware of her lover's thoughts, but just didn't want to tear up the truth and add to the block.
Hellen died, and Hawa also learned that the last lingering love letter was not written by a Japanese woman, but by Hellen. hellen hopes that he is the woman her husband is infatuated with, she hates her for not being her, the greatness of forbearance and the love that will never give up make Hawa unbearable, he firmly said "she was that women", he told the woman he has been infatuated with It's hellen, nothing else matters, he belongs only to hellen. But, does Hellen think so too? No, she left the punishment ruthlessly and left cleanly and desperately. I like the punishment, though perhaps the most expensive.
Taboo, desire; price, punishment. If people saw it through early in the morning, there would be no such regrets in life, but there are a few people who can do it from the beginning to the end and wait for love.
