" Little Days " finale, "Evil Father-in-law" Zhu Dali passed away? Some people are overjoyed, others think this character is undesirable, and others think the screenwriter should not have allowed Zhu Dali to die. Moreover, using Zhu Dali's death in exchange for Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli's remarriage is indeed a bit uncomfortable.
Why did the screenwriter let Zhu Dali die? In fact, this plot has deep meaning, let’s analyze it in depth.
1. The conflict between contemporary people’s views on marriage and the previous generation
From the marriage of Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli, we can see many conflicts between the two generations.
For example, their married life. After Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli gave birth to Coco, her mother-in-law Zhang Shanya came to help take care of the child. In order not to wrong their mother-in-law and children, Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli gave them the master bedroom, while they lived in bunk beds. The cramped space made them feel depressed. In order to relax their lives, they agreed to book a hotel room every week.
Many people don’t understand why they would rather stay in a star-rated suite for 800 yuan for two hours than spend less money to go to a worse hotel. In fact, this is a little "comfort" for themselves and a way for them to keep their marriage fresh. For young people, their own lives are also important. But the older generation doesn’t think so.
Another example is their pursuit of quality of life. Zhang Shanya went home for a few days and prepared ready-made meals for them to eat hot. But as soon as Zhang Shanya left, they tidied up the house again, throwing away all the old things that Zhang Shanya had saved for a long time, and also threw away the prepared meals. Hourly workers were even hired to tidy up the rooms.
The frugality of the previous generation is engraved in their bones, but this generation values enjoyment more, so their concepts will conflict strongly.
and the divorce between Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli. I thought it was a TV series, but I didn't expect that many viewers said that the same was true for themselves. Family conflicts could not be reconciled, so they resorted to divorce.
After the divorce, their relationship became even better. They would raise their children together, eat together, and go on dates together. Except for not going back to the same home, everything else was no different from getting married.
This may be difficult for many elderly people to understand. But they don't know that it is precisely because of their "not letting go" that the children have no living space of their own, forcing them to deal with it in this way.
Now think about papi Jiang's way of getting along with each other, "each goes back to his own house during the New Year, each finds his own mother", and "both parents never meet", is this a sane world?
2. The death of Zhu Dali is used to imply the demise of old ideas
The character of Zhu Dali is also very "down to earth". It can be seen from the comments on the Internet that there are not a few "Zhu Dali-style" parents.
For example, they attach great importance to the man’s “right to speak.” They don’t let the woman pay for buying a house, and they don’t let the woman pay for dinner together. What they keep saying is that they are “condescending” as a man.
also has the so-called "Zhu Family Rules". When he entertains his nephew for dinner, he must ask his daughter-in-law to prepare the meal, because "family dinner" is the most heart-warming thing. As a result, Gu Moli was caught ordering takeout, and everyone listened to his lecture for a long time with hungry stomachs.
His pua and domestic violence against Zhang Shanya. In fact, his domestic violence is not too severe, because in reality it is much more severe. These all explain his "authority".
Zhu Dali is not a pure "bad guy", he also has a good side. I have to say that the screenwriter was quite successful in portraying him. But why arrange such an ending for him?
Because Zhu Dali symbolizes the old ideas in the play, only the death of the old ideas can bring about the rebirth of the marriage between Zhu Jincao and Gu Moli. Not letting him get better but letting him die is to tell the audience that in order to have a new life, old concepts must be overturned.
So, the death of Zhu Dali was not because the screenwriter did not want "family fun", but because he wanted to alert the audience in this way. I hope the elderly can change their minds and let their children live the "little life" they want.
