Unhappy families are unhappy in their own way

"Happy families are all alike, and every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."

All kinds of conflicts in the family, brother and sister love in the plot, husband cheating, daughter taking drugs, husband and his sister having extramarital affairs... These are real but a bit bloody settings, alienated but emotionally happy family is not easy to come by. Everyone has hidden pain in their hearts, and in order to maintain the warmth in front of them, they choose to remain silent. But when the truth collides, the sentence "I just want to protect you" can't be exchanged for forgiveness. Fortunately, there is no need to worry about right or wrong because of the complicated nature!

The heroine hides her fragility with bitterness, hides the pain of losing her husband, and pretends to be strong. Taking drugs, crying hysterically, constantly emphasizing strength, emphasizing money. But what I want most is love and companionship, and it is painful to push my relatives further away step by step.

At the end, the heroine's pale and powerless cry was unanswered, and there was no collapse and cry, but the music still couldn't bury the loneliness, and the once looked down nanny became her last trace of warmth.

The daughter never looked back, and all her relatives left her. After all, it was a scene in that "unfortunate"!
