I don't agree with Mrs March and other readers that Joe and Laurie are too alike to last long together. In the book, it has been described more than once that the two quarreled but each took a step back and reconciled. As a friend, this can be done, and as a partner, I believe it can also be done. Besides, (this may be regarded as the limitation of the author's era?) Are the so-called couples who have never been red-faced really perfect, equal and happy? In ancient times, "respect each other as guests" and "raise a case with eyebrows" are nothing more than benchmarks for women's submission and obedience in the patriarchal era, because men do not want or disdain to communicate and discuss profound ideological issues with their wives. There is no essential difference between Europe and the United States in the old society. , Bruce doesn't think Meg understands politics, and he doesn't intend to delve into what those hats and skirts do. (Writing here, I suddenly think of "Gone with the Wind", Rhett not only knows what kind of hats and clothes go with what kind of people, but also understands and appreciates Scarlett's ability and desire to make money. People always say that the unique Scarlett makes The novel is enduring, and I think Rhett has contributed just as much) At least the Meg and Bruce pair, in my opinion, is all about men treating women as pleasing objects and submissive housekeeping to get him out A fun tool.

Perhaps respecting each other as guests was the model of that era, or what the Puritans believed to be a happy marriage, but I believe that by exchanging ideas about life, interests and hobbies, arguing with each other in the process, reconciling again, and then understanding each other at a deeper level. This is what healthy and equal intimacy should be, and always happens. So I believe that if Joe and Laurie are together, they will argue and make up, Laurie will become more mature and better under Joe's influence, and Joe will stick to his dream of writing and achieve a career.
Take ten thousand steps back and say that life is often unhappy, Joe missed Laurie, fell in love with the professor, and finally opened a school abruptly and became a "Mama Barr" who taught her children every day and basically gave up writing. What the hell do you say this is the life you want? If this is really a person's dream, isn't this dream more logical to put on Beth than on Joe?

It’s not that I can’t understand that the various arrangements made in this novel with a strong sense of religious persuasion are to meet the expectations of the society at that time for women, and I can understand it with empathy. Female writers’ autobiographical novels, in many cases, will be in the role of The body reflects what he can't get but desires, such as Charlotte Bronte finally let Jane Eyre and "the married man" be together justifiably, such as Jane Austen let Elizabeth and Darcy go through all kinds of misunderstandings for life Stay together. However, in a good novel, when you start to shape the characters, the characters already have their own lives, and they will make various reactions in the story you arrange according to their own characters. The reaction is what I can't accept the most about the second half of the novel (the so-called character design has collapsed).
I feel lonely because my sisters and friends have all gained a family, and then I decide to quickly marry myself. This kind of thing can be done by Meg, it can be done by Amy, but it can't be done by our Joe!
Then Mom asked Joe if Laurie would come back and propose to you now, would you say yes, and Joe said maybe, because I need to be loved now more than I did then. So, just because she was lonely and needed to be loved, Joe wanted to get married, and if she rejected Laurie because he was a boy and couldn't give her the respect and love she wanted, then when she was lonely, Joe didn't care about it. Now, she just needs someone to take care of her, and even if Laurie comes back unchanged, she will accept it. How could this be our Joe? !
By the way, Joe is actually the one who pays the most for the family. She can lose her hair and sell for money when her father is sick. Joe sacrificed her whole life to take care of Beth's illness and death. She even decided to leave. Laurie kept his distance from his determination to sacrifice himself for the sake of his sister's happiness. I don't think Mrs March was a perfect mother, or she was biased when she had a lot of children. She accommodated Amy in many things, and Beth was reluctant to disturb her pleasures in Europe when she died. It's hard to say that as parents, their hearts I believe that Amy will marry a rich man, and Joe will become an old girl for their retirement (just like the parents' discussion of their three girls in the first season of Downton Tunnel), in fact, I envy the loneliness that my sisters and friends have a home. The feeling can be completely relieved by the love of the family, but Mrs. March did not give Joe much special comfort after Beth's death. Instead, when Amy came home, the whole family focused on them. This is what Joe thinks. The immediate cause of myself being more bleak and lonely (if Joe will).
