Maria and Herman's wedding was under fire. At that time, World War II was in full swing, and Maria and Herman risked their lives to sign a marriage contract in white gauze, and then Herman joined the army to fight. Under the slow motion, artillery fire exploded around them, and the two lay on the ground to sign their names, making the wedding of Maria and Herman seem solemn and turbulent, which destined their marriage to be different.
When the news of Herman's death came, Maria couldn't believe it. Every day, she carried a sign of "Missing Persons", and she had to find Herman's whereabouts. However, there is still no news of Herman. Under the introduction of a friend, Maria met Bill, a black officer. The two hit it off, but Maria rejected Bill's proposal. Soon, Maria became pregnant, but at this moment, Herman unexpectedly came back! During the altercation, Maria killed Bill. Herman was jailed for this.
Maria and Bill fell in love, but did not want to use marriage to restrain herself. Because in her mind, her marriage with Herman is justifiable, and the sanctity of marriage cannot be violated. Although she was pregnant with Bill's child, for Maria, it might just be an inevitable part of love. When she saw Herman returning home in perfect condition, she resolutely threw herself back into her husband's arms, even fighting. Dead Bill. Bill became Herman's replacement and a victim of Maria's marriage.
After Herman was in prison, Maria had an abortion and met Oswald, a big boss. With her beauty, charm and strength, Maria became Oswald's private secretary and mistress. Being able to get to this point seems to be a leap to the sky, but in fact, it also reflects Maria's sophistication in dealing with interpersonal problems. For example, she can complete the social business in the company with ease, which also establishes her prestige. Although the big money has given up to her, she still misses Herman in her heart. After Herman was released from prison, she sent her a rose every month, which also became her emotional support.
When Oswald died, Maria's financial resources came to an end. But it wasn't this that made her lose control, it was Oswald's will. In his will, Oswald gave half of his estate to Maria, and the other half to Herman as a reward for Herman's "giving" his wife to him. The truth is revealed! Maria's painstakingly managed marriage was so betrayed by money. From the actions of Maria and Herman, you can see the huge contrast between the actions and concepts of the two people: Maria believes that the body can cheat, after all, it is necessary for the source of life and other needs of life, but the soul must be loyal to marriage 's rule. But Herman didn't have such a concept. He wouldn't be jealous of his wife's search for flowers and willows. Instead, he would trade his feelings as a business. His tolerance is beyond the scope of what it should be, and the constraints of love and marriage have long been invalid for him. Maria finally lit the gas and ended the lives of two people with a loud bang. This sudden roar heralded the end of this "trading marriage" mixed with derailment. Maria, the tomb keeper, failed to keep the loyalty of love. Is marriage really the grave of love?
