In our traditional concept, marriage is an honorable event in a man's life.

The routine link is that the man should prepare the wedding room and bride price, and take the bride back to her hometown with the blessing of relatives and friends.

But around us, there are also some men who "marry" into the woman's house for various reasons. This situation is usually called "son-in-law" or "son-in-law".

Men who get married in this way usually need to settle in the woman's family after marriage, and almost all the food and clothing are provided by the woman's family, so they will not gain a higher family status relatively.

Liu Chao recently watched a hit movie "Send me to Qingyun". When he saw the story of Liu Guangming's death, a similar experience made the1.8m man cry.

He is a pet kept at home by rich people.

Liu Guangming, played by Justin, is the image of the door-to-door son-in-law in Send me to Qingyun.

His life began when he was a child. He was good at reciting pi and was invited by TV station as a prodigy.

But when he was young, he was called a "child prodigy" and was regarded as a "person who could go to Tsinghua Peking University". However, because he failed in successive exams, he only got a junior college degree.

These were told as jokes by the rich father-in-law to the guests as after-dinner talks.

Every time at a rich man's party, everyone else has a good time. Only Liu Guangming must, according to his father-in-law's request, numbly recite pi to entertain guests.

"The hardest thing for people in this life is to get respect."

Liu Guangming's few appearances are all around this sentence.

He is eager to be respected, but he can only stick his photo on the hidden place of the shoe rack, so that he will bend over and look at his photo when others change shoes.

He longed for respect, so he pushed a wheelchair at the funeral and accepted everyone's bow in a black humor way.

The only time he got up the courage in his life was to jump off a building to end this humiliating life, but in the end, he failed.

My name is Liu Chao, and my height is 180cm. I graduated from graduate school. He looks above average, and he got good grades in all majors when he graduated.

I tried my best to stay in this bustling city, but I still couldn't earn a place.

Until my present wife showed up.

We talked about love, and she offered to be nice. In fact, I like her, but at that time, my financial ability was not enough to support my normal expenses, so I really dared not fall in love.

In addition to sending part of my monthly salary back to my hometown, it is only enough for me to eat and rent a shared house.

After more than a year of love, my wife proposed to get married without a bride price, but asked to buy a house in this city, at least to pay a down payment. At that time, I couldn't come up with 20 thousand yuan, let alone hundreds of millions.

At this time, my wife revealed her real family situation to me. I always thought that she was born in a rich family, but in fact she was a real good girl. I feel a little incredible, as if I were living in a fairy tale.

Seeing my embarrassment, she suggested that I could be a door-to-door son-in-law

At that time, I felt that no matter what kind of marriage form, it was enough as long as both men and women were willing to live happily.

After getting married, I moved to her villa. As a son-in-law, I was asked to live with her parents.

Originally, her parents prepared a wedding room for us, but somehow her parents suddenly changed their minds and said that they could not bear to part with her, so I had to agree to live together.

I found out after I got married that it was not as simple as I thought.

No matter how big or small things are, my parents-in-law have the final say on what I should do and what kind of friends I should make. Which friend's wedding to attend and how much money to send must be approved by them.

My son was born not long ago. Without my knowledge, they registered my son's account, and his son took their surname. Although I am psychologically prepared, I am still very sad.

Her parents have an aunt who cooks.

But every family reunion, my relatives clamored for my cooking, saying it was to his taste.

That time, my wife and I were at home, and I took the initiative to learn new tricks for my wife to taste. The relative made a surprise visit and offered to have a taste. After tasting it, he said it was better than his chef's. To tell you the truth, I'm ambivalent.

From then on, he instructed me to cook these dishes whenever I had the chance. The wife said that he is an elder, so it's hard to refute him. You should work hard.

Every time relatives get together, others are chatting, and only I am busy sweating in the kitchen.

And I gradually found that my parents-in-law didn't respect me very much. They often talk to me in a commanding tone, and their eyes always show disdain.

I told my wife what was bothering me. At first, she would say a few words, saying that I think too much.

Later, when the number of times increased, she not only did not comfort, but also sarcastically said that it was not the gift of my parents that you could live a good life today, and it was nothing to be wronged by this.

Suddenly one day, my mother-in-law came up with an agreement, which probably meant that if she divorced or misbehaved, she could not share her property. I signed it in anger and felt that I was just a fertility machine in their eyes.

What activities are there in my wife's circle of friends? I almost never take me.

Once I overheard my wife talking to a friend on the phone. She said that I was "too low-level to take out", which really hurt my self-esteem.

I want a divorce, but I don't want to. What bothers me is whether my wife has feelings for me or not.

In fact, no matter men or women, everyone will experience difficulties in life. These days are always difficult, long, undercurrent, sometimes explosive, sometimes calm.

However, life is so devastating that it can't be stopped.

My advice to Liu Chao: Either divorce or run yourself well and impress them. Otherwise, you will definitely become the next Liu Guangming in this environment.
