"My Concubine Forest" is vain and greedy, preoccupied with prosperity, but ignores the cultivation and education of children's three views. Finally, although Sheng Moran climbed to the top and married the earl's house, his marriage was not satisfactory. Sheng Changfeng's ending seems much luckier than Sheng Moran's. He married Liu, the eldest daughter of the imperial palace, and the marriage was happy, which changed his fate and became a real winner in life.
In the eyes of Mrs. He Sheng, Sheng Changfeng used to be an idle playboy, but he lived a stable and smooth life just because he married a good woman. In the original work, the Liu family is the most enviable. No matter what ups and downs the imperial court has experienced, the Liu family, as a scholarly family, is safe and sound, which is inseparable from the Liu family's family style and pattern.
Women trained by such family education are naturally full of wisdom and pattern. Although Liu is plain and not as beautiful as Yingying, she changed each other's fate with wisdom. Sheng Changfeng, who was once unreliable after marriage, no longer idles and wastes time. He also found a completely different charm in his wife Liu. Later, he was angry every day and finally became famous, which made the Sheng family, old and young, sit up and take notice.
In fact, behind Sheng Changfeng's reform, Liu's ugly face is the best promoter.
However, compared with the traditional virtuous housekeeping, Liu's greatest feature is that he knows the way of "combining hard and soft" and sometimes plays the role of "white face" and "black face" in treating Sheng Changfeng.
When Sheng Changfeng didn't respect and ignore Liu, she chose to ignore and be indifferent; Sheng Changfeng repented, and Liu became gentle and virtuous, and he could change his position and role at will.
Her attitude towards marriage is neither supercilious nor sad. She seems to be forbearing reality, but she hides great wisdom. She has the strength and confidence to play a bad hand, live a good life and keep the side of the world.
Of course, if Sheng Changfeng is as bad-natured as Sun Xiucai, even if he meets a good woman like Liu, it won't help.
Sheng Changfeng's essence is not bad. He doesn't have Lin's wrist and scheming. He is simple-minded, but he is used to indulgence, and he doesn't know the wisdom to settle down.
Liu's genius lies in that her view of marriage is actually a kind of high emotional intelligence. As the first daughter of a noble family, reading a lot of poetry books gives her confidence and wisdom.
Beauvoir, a French woman writer, once famously said, "Capturing her husband is an art, but maintaining her husband is a job."
A really smart woman, no matter who she marries, has the ability to be happy, because she knows that the key to happiness is always in her own hands.
