Chapter 1524 Sweet Burden (8)
Xia Siyu said half-amused and half-speechless: "Sleeping with you really broadens my horizons." She even went to watch documentary films about how couples get along.
Bo Yan could hear the sarcasm in her tone, and he did not deny it. He just said: "Actually, after you said that last time, I also reflected on myself. I think I respect women very much, but some things are really subtle. For example, when we get along normally, I won't think anything of you even if you make a fuss. I will still think that I married my wife and I have to pamper her even if I kneel down. But why must a woman be pampered by a man? Oh, I'm not saying that you can't pamper her. What I mean is that the word "pamper" sounds very subordinate, just like - you treat your pet dog or cat at home."
In many movies and romantic novels, the male protagonist is "pampering his wife". But in fact, the so-called "pampering your wife" means that you pamper your wife no matter what she does, spend money on her, do things for her, protect her from the wind and rain, and create a good life for her, as if this is love.
But think about it carefully, aren't you the same way with your dog and cat at home? Pamper it, spend money on it, do things for it, and protect it from the wind and rain. You yourself are reluctant to eat steak, but you are willing to buy cat food worth dozens of kilograms for your dog and cat. You yourself are reluctant to buy expensive clothes, but you buy cute little clothes and toys for your dog and cat, most of which are not cheap. When others scold your dog and cat, you feel more wronged than it, fearing that it will be hurt.
But will you fall in love with your dog or cat? I mean the kind of love. Not at all, right?
Because you know that you are the owner, even if you ridicule yourself as a "shit shoveler", you are still the owner.
You and your dog and cat will never be equal. There are many so-called "pampering wives" in society now, and men and women have never been equal. It's just a fantasy in the name of "love".
Once you try to break this false warmth, such as letting your child take the mother's surname, believe it or not, most men can't accept it at all.
The so-called equality must at least be equal on both sides, not only economically, but also psychologically.
Xia Siyu and Bo Yan are in this situation at least for now. Even if they separate, they can live well on their own in the future. However, they are together not because of marriage, but because they like each other, because they like the feeling of being together.
Although Xia Siyu didn't say that she could fully understand Bo Yan's emotion just now, she knew the general meaning.
She smiled and said, "If you say so, I will pamper you more in the future."
"That's not necessary." He was not complaining, nor did he explain anything in the opposite direction. He just felt that since they were husband and wife, since the two of them already had such an idea, they should speak out openly.
She was acting up, and he was willing to take care of her. It was not because of "pampering", but because he really liked her. Husbands and wives also need to complement each other. He has a calm personality. If he finds a wife like him, he probably won't say anything for ten years, and the misunderstanding will continue.
But Xia Siyu is different. She is straightforward and will never keep anything in her heart. She says whatever she thinks. If she finds someone like her, it will be a powder keg, and the two will explode at a touch.
