Where the heart is, is the hometown

The heroine acted very well, showing no timidity in many long-term close-ups, showing a freedom of retraction that does not match her age. It's a matter of time before you want to win an award.
I can fully understand her evasion and hesitation. This Xiaokai in her hometown is so good, talented and handsome, young and rich, and most importantly, she has the same cultural background as her; while the American husband, although gentle, affectionate and considerate, There is no culture, and even a letter is not easy to write, which is far from her motivation and eagerness to learn. Change it to any girl who is not deep in the world, I am afraid that she will be hesitant to decide between the two ends.
However, all of this is so contradictory. If she hadn't gone to the United States, had not had that experience, had not been cared for by the seemingly harsh but friendly bosses, roommates, and landlords, and had not had her husband's careful care and company, she would not have become what she is now. Her self-confidence, dignified appearance and radiant appearance made friends envious of her who made Xiaokai emotional.
I think even if there is no malicious catalysis from the supermarket owner, she will still have to go back after all, and it may be delayed for a few days. After attending her friend's wedding, she and Xiaokai will spend a while to enjoy the ambiguous feeling of a second love. But after a while of greed for joy, when you wake up, you will eventually realize that your hometown is actually a foreign land. The old woman's meanness and viciousness only awakened her in advance: this closed town can't give her a vast world, and can't allow her to run freely. Her future and her dreams are all on the other side, not to mention, there is her on the other side. s husband.
Why should you care about being a foreign country as your hometown, where your heart is, is your hometown.

    I can fully understand Alice's decision to return to New York. She has been away from her hometown for too long, and those negative factors will be temporarily blocked when she returns to the old place. You can only see the beauty of your own love, but there is always an opportunity for you to recall the original Why do you want to escape from here, and then become more determined to the life you want. Alice sighed at the beach in her hometown why her life was not like this before she left, and I want to say that it is precisely because she has become a better version of herself after walking out that she has the opportunity to make such a sigh, which means running away is just what u need !!
