The first time I watched "Mrs. Garland" was in 2012. It seemed that Anhui TV broadcast two episodes every night. At that time, I was not married or in love. I was still working and alone. I live in the age of being a leftover girl and have a lot of time alone. When you have free time in the evening, let's lean on the bed and watch TV. I came across this show while randomly changing channels.
I later watched this drama many times, including the theme song. Every time I watched and listened to it, even though it was in different situations, when I was in trouble, or when I had nothing to do, I always felt the same. It is possible to have a stable mind.
I think now, Lao has all the beauty of being a woman. This kind of beauty, like poetry, music, painting, sculpture and other beautiful arts, purifies people's body and mind and enlightens their minds.
1. I yearn for Lao’s always quiet nature.
La Yu is such a woman who has been living a rough and undercurrent life as a pastoral master.
La Yu is not a cheerful and outgoing person, so you can’t see her laughing. In a happy family life, she enjoys family life quietly.
La Yu is not a sensitive and introverted person, and it is rare to see her crying. Even when her second husband passed away, Lala held the funeral and received the guests calmly. When she couldn't bear it any longer, she quietly walked away and cried alone, and then showed her composure to others.
Would such a person be boring? Not really. Lao has many "talents" and is usually very busy, such as handicrafts. She makes garlands and weaves like no one else. She can also make Western-style rag dolls; her kitchen is rich in delicious food; the princess likes to listen to Lao reading to her; Lao Lao also took it easy in socializing with the upper class.
The quiet Lao Lao is also very smart. Her ex-husband, the Palatun family, went bankrupt and faced a critical juncture when the property was forcibly expropriated by creditors and converted into a casino. The children of the Palatun family were at a loss what to do, and Lao thought of a piece of information that her husband Tebo had mentioned in a previous chat, which was that after the European aristocracy went bankrupt, , the children will auction the property to the municipal agency for use as a museum and other purposes. It can be seen that her knowledge and horizons were very broad at that time.
2. I want to follow Lao’s culinary aesthetics.
When La Yu left Youd and returned to the princess, the princess was as happy as a child and said that she was lucky again because the food cooked by the palace people was either too salty or too greasy. Lamy's first husband, Youde, once praised her cooking skills. He was immersed in happy memories and couldn't help himself. He said that every aspect of Lamy's cooking was so meticulous and beautiful.
At this moment, I recalled that in the play, La Lao was sitting under the big tree in the yard, wearing casual clothes, taking Aunt Puen and several servants to prepare for the dinner. La Lao was carefully peeling The stepdaughter Yan'er came forward and asked her mother to teach her how to make chili sauce to make shrimp paste soup. Yan'er inadvertently revealed that La Yu's half-sister Long Lawei was responsible for arranging the flowers on the table. What a well-prepared and delightful dinner. After a while, the plot switched to the dinner party. La Yu had changed her clothes, sat at the main seat, and greeted her relatives and friends for dinner.
Rayu is also good at making tea snacks, such as sandwiches. In Thailand at that time, even the nobles and marquises did not even enter the house of sandwich. Whenever there was a sandwich, everyone would praise Lao Lao’s cooking skills. Longlawi was in love with King Dilalu and wanted to have Western-style snacks and afternoon tea at the hotel. King Dilalu replied with a look of disdain, "Is there any more delicious snacks than here?"
< p> 3. Lala tried her best to find a way out of the difficult situation and gave me strength.When Lao's second husband, Tebo, was taken away by the coup forces, and the leader of the coup, Naraseban, plotted against her and forced Lao to submit with Tebo's fate, Lao fell into isolation and helplessness. However, when the crisis was imminent, she could neither find support from her family. She only had her mother-in-law and children at home, nor could she ask friends for help. This was at stake in the reputation of the wealthy family. She spent the whole night thinking instead of losing control of her emotions and breaking down crying. She had to work hard to find a solution in the critical moment. . La Yu is truly a strong woman who is respected and admired.
Stepdaughter Yan'er fell in love with Na Lin, a young man who had returned from studying in Germany. However, the two people who were in love and matched with each other were blocked by Na Lin's father. However, La Yu did not sympathize with Na Lin because of this. She believed that Na Lin should try her best for her own happiness, and there were still ways, but Na Lin didn't try her best. This allowed me to see the perseverance and wisdom of this noble woman. This is what the so-called noble spirit is like.
4. I like Lao’s clothing and accessories.
Rayu's clothes, when she was a girl, were traditional Thai clothes, including knee-length trousers and tops that were either off-shoulder, high-collared, or made of lace or brocade. After getting married, she wore a brocade knee-length skirt that was popular among Thai aristocratic women at that time. Later, after Tebo's death, the clothing style evolved to be closer to modern times, and Lao's clothes became simpler, with mainly light colors. Accessories are always worn, which is also the standard for Thai aristocratic women. It's just that Lao's accessories have never been flashy jewelry or diamonds. They are all low-key, such as pearl necklaces and earrings. The overall feeling is exquisite but not luxurious, beautiful and friendly.
5. I admire Lao for accepting her strong mother-in-law.
Lady’s mother-in-law, Mrs. Pan, is a capable, stern and very traditional old lady.
She once caused her daughter-in-law to die in childbirth because she refused to use Western medicine to deliver her baby.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have never happened in Layu's life. Because she usually obeys her mother-in-law, understands her mother-in-law's intentions when things happen, and knows how to respond to her mother-in-law. This pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the mother-in-law is brave and smart, showing authority in everything, the daughter-in-law is gentle, honest, smart, clear-minded and knows how to do things. So there is room for two strong women in one family. The mistress of the Ratchasak House has always been La Yu, and her mother-in-law did not interfere.
When La Yu married King Dilalu and settled in Chiang Mai, Yan'er, as the eldest granddaughter of the Ratchasak family, became the hostess. Yan'er made up her mind, "Learn from my mother and take good care of everyone in the house." The child's attitude is the deepest evaluation of her mother.
