Do you sometimes feel that your life is full of "mourning", troubles follow, but you can't do anything about it, what should you do at this time?

Have you ever fantasized about escaping to live on an island like The Dreyers.

Beautiful, witty, sincere, healing... Like other well-received British dramas, the third season of "The Dreyer Family" has soared to 9.6 points, proud of the drama chain.

Although this is a British drama, the story takes place on a small island in Greece.

Mrs Dreyer is a widow living in Bournemouth, southwest England, with her poor pension and four children.

It was difficult to support a family alone, but these four children were more difficult to serve each other.

In the first episode, she was summoned to the school by her youngest son's principal.

The principal summoned her for only one purpose: to complain.

The younger son's reason for the indictment is also unique. The principal said he would rather feed mice than go to class.

Mrs. Dreyer did not discipline her son like ordinary parents, but pointed out that the younger son did not like to go to class because he was bullied at school, but the principal not only did not care, but said that the younger son was disobedient because Mrs. Dreyer lost her husband in middle age.

This remark angered Mrs. Dreyer, so she dropped her son from school.

After returning home, several other children exploded when they heard that their younger brother had dropped out of school.

They all followed suit and dropped out of school.

The second son said, whether you agree or not, the school uniform has been torn to pieces by me anyway.

The third daughter also said that she was stupid anyway, so it's better to find someone to marry.

The eldest son is an adult and can drop out of school, but his failure to go to work at all makes people angry.

Unfinished bills and troubled four children kept Mrs. Dreyer drowning alone every night.

Life was difficult, and it also made everyone in the Dreyer family unhappy. Just like the gloomy and depressed Bournemouth, the family gradually lost hope.

At this time, the eldest brother Larry put forward a suggestion, it is better to escape the UK and go to Corfu, Greece.

Not only is the price cheap, but life is simple and suitable for everyone in the family. I can go there and concentrate on writing books, and the animals on the island can accompany my little brother...

Mrs. Dreyer directly rejected the proposal. After all, it was a bit whimsical for the family to move to a completely unfamiliar place.

But the next day she changed her mind and decided to accept the eldest son's proposal.

Because on the beach, she saw the lonely old man beside her, as if she saw herself many years later. If it continues like this, it is already foreseeable in the future that she will grow old miserably, and the four children are likely to repeat her bad life.

So Mrs. Dreyer immediately sold the house, paid off the debt, and led the family on a boat to Corfu.

About to face a new life, the four children did not panic at all, all slumped on the boat leisurely.

20th century Greece, picturesque picturesque scenery.

However, the difference between poetry and distance and imagination is still quite big.

After paying off the debt, the Dreyer family was close to bankruptcy and had to live in a dilapidated house far from the village and facing the sea.

Don't look at the dilapidated appearance, the inside of the house is empty, and this dilapidated house is in danger of turning into ruins at any time.

Open the windows to the ground.

The ceiling is also uncertain when it will come down and cause a crisis to people's lives.

Even on the first night here, the family could only sleep in the suitcases.

Even so, everyone was excited about the new environment.

Big brother Larry took out his typewriter and started his creative career.

The second brother Leslie finally got his wish and practiced his marksmanship hard.

Daughter Margo is also very used to here, ready to bask in a healthy complexion.

But after the novelty passed, the family's problems were exposed. The children were unwilling to work and to find food. The family was always facing the danger of having nothing to eat and no place to live.

No matter how strong Mrs. Dreyer was, she was no match for four rebellious bear children. She loves her children very much, and hopes to take care of them wholeheartedly, so that the family can live a good life.

But the bear child is a bear child after all, even if he changes place, he often drives Mrs. Dreyer mad.

The eldest son doesn't go to work, and he quarrels at home every day as a writer. He also likes to introduce greasy men full of pornographic jokes to his mother.

The second son was in trouble everywhere. He nearly wounded someone with a shotgun, and was slandered to kill a farmer's turkey. He was brought back to the police station by the police many times.

As soon as her daughter came to the island, she got into trouble. In conservative Greece, her bikini drew protests from monks.

Only the youngest son is happy.

Corfu is a paradise for him. He loves animals and nature since he was a child. He can't wait to live in the forest every day.

But there is one downside. He always brings his favorite animals home, ranging from cormorants and flamingos to small spiders and ants. This is a nightmare for people who are afraid of bugs...

However, the children will grow up eventually; although they are still stupid and cute, although their reactions are half a beat, and although they are vicious to each other every day, they also begin to become considerate of others and considerate of their families.

The eldest would also buy a glass of wine for the third sister, and the two sat quietly on the street watching people come and go. That's why I like Corfu, Sanmei said, people are always in a hurry.

The second child injured his brother's pet dog with a gun. Although he refused to be soft on his mouth, he would make a brace for the dog to make amends.

The fourth bat died, he was very sad, and everyone held a funeral for the bat. My brother complained, this is more solemn than Dad's funeral.

The children are sensible, and the mother is more relaxed. She can also think about her own life and feelings.

In the first season, Mom's official match is the most handsome shepherd on the island, Sven. Really handsome and scum, not only has survival skills, but also literary and artistic cells. It's a pity that his mother and he both found out that he was gay on the eve of their wedding.

So what can I do, there is no wedding, but life has to go on.

The second season of Mom's love line is a British businessman on an island, Hugh. Send flowers every day, sweet and sweet.

It's a pity that the businessman wanted to return to the UK for development, and the mother chose to stay here. The two eventually broke up peacefully.

In the third season, the mother still worries about the children, but she no longer expects love. The old driver Spiro, who has been with her all the time, is still there this season. When her mother needs help the most, he will always show up. Unfortunately, the two are still not together after all.

The film is based on Gerald Durrel's Greek trilogy. It is an autobiographical novel by the author (the youngest son in the play). Their family has lived in Corfu for a few years. Later, the eldest brother became a writer, the second brother was a professional firearms person, and the youngest son became a wildlife conservationist. The Queen has awarded medals.

The documentary-like smooth footage in the play perfectly presents the natural scenery of the island and the elegant and simple beauty of Mediterranean architecture. Every frame is as beautiful as an oil painting.

The fairytale Cove Island provided the perfect backdrop for the Dreyer family.

Some people say that the plot is bland and not exciting, but Mrs. Dreyer's life is the ordinary life of our mother.

She is not a superman, and she will also have all kinds of troubles and trifles, such as the balance of heartache, and the bad boy.

But just like Mrs. Dreyer's attitude towards life, she did not open up or reverse her fate. When faced with trouble, she did not think it was "mourning", and she always treated her family and children with seriousness and optimism.

She firmly believes that the purpose of education is to fully tap a child's talents and potential.

She embraces frustrated children warmly. No accountability, no judgment.

She is constantly reflecting on the way families get along. No matter how hard the economy is, the focus is always on happiness.

Mrs. Dreyer's attitude towards life also tells us that blaming others will not solve problems, and a bitter face can only affect the emotions of those around you, but in turn, if you smile on life, life will smile on you.

If there is a little depression, there will be a little happiness, and if there is an unsatisfactory side in life, there will definitely be a side that can make you laugh.
