Attic immigrants

We often say that marriage is a transit point of love, which sublimates love into deeper family ties. If love is free, then marriage is to make this freedom converge. Love is talking about your feelings, and marriage is more about responsibility. Since we want to form a family, we must bear our own responsibilities. Only when two people are brave enough to accept this "bondage" from marriage can they enjoy marriage instead of putting their lives in another torment. The unhappy marriage between them is a tragedy. People walk into the marriage hall together because of love. If marriage is regarded as the grave of love, it is a retrogression of life experience. For everyone, choosing to marry someone is the result of extreme caution and careful choice, which will not only determine the future life of themselves and each other, but also the life experience of the next generation, or the future life of both families.

No one has the right to betray his marriage. Every problem has its own solution, and only rationality is the key to a reasonable solution. The protagonist of this article is a pair of people who change each other's fate because of marriage. Unwilling to be lonely, the wife sought an affair and hid the object of the affair in her attic for ten years. For ten years, her husband didn't find out. Unfortunately, in the end, their despicable behavior was exposed, but after the husband found out the truth, he ushered in his own end. Whose fault is their tragic marriage? What is the essence of their practice?

A marriage destroyed by desire

Dolly is the protagonist of the story. Her parents are German to the core. They settled in the United States in the process of immigration. Originally, her parents thought that their family's life would change in a new country, but there were still some problems in her father's business. Dolly's childhood was accompanied by this change. Dolly has enjoyed the kind of life that others yearn for since she was a child. Just like a princess, all her daily life is of the highest standard. Being used to all kinds of material comforts since childhood, Dolly, who looks beautiful and generous, naturally feels that she deserves all this. Unfortunately, her life trajectory is not as beautiful as expected. Before she was an adult, her family was already heavily in debt. Dolly had many suitors when she was young. This is nothing strange. After all, Dolly is beautiful and looks noble.

Although there are many suitors, she has never accepted anyone's pursuit. The looks of the suitors are ok, but because there is no way to satisfy their material desires, they are not very suitable for them in her eyes. Although she has some outstanding appearance, she has not reached the point of being really beautiful, and she is also very demanding of herself. She has also become an older woman, but there is never a shortage of men around her. After all, she always wanted to be a princess.

It was not until she was 26 years old that she really met the right person, that is, 30-year-old clothing factory owner Fred, who is the owner of a women's clothing factory. By chance, he met Dolly who looked young and beautiful. As a big boss with countless properties, she naturally has no resistance to such a beautiful and generous woman, because her factory mainly produces women's clothes and knows a lot about women's dress.

After a period of contact, they decided to get married. In Dolly's eyes, this is the marriage she wants, and she also thinks that she will find the happiness she wants in this marriage. This couple is very sweet. It can be said that Fred spent almost all his time with Dolly during that time, and Dolly also considered herself the happiest person in the world during that time.

But Fred's business always needs to be taken care of After a period of inseparable life, their lives have changed a little. The two of them occasionally have some arguments. Although these disputes were finally settled, Dolly was never wronged. Her husband not only quarreled with himself at work, but also ignored himself on the pretext of being tired. With the long time together, she also found that Fred had some bad habits, such as making trouble after drinking and swearing. This made Dolly, who was already spoiled, very angry. She always felt that she had chosen the wrong person.

But now, after all, she can use the wealth her husband gave her at will, and material consumption has also brought her some comfort. Just when she was upset and unhappy about her marriage, he met another protagonist in the story. He is Otto, a little tailor who works in her husband's factory. He is handsome and young, and he can't be taken care of by his husband in life. The handsome guy he met by chance in the factory made Dolly have a different idea.

In the factory, Otto's popularity is particularly good. Dolly came to the factory many times and soon became familiar with Otto. Dolly thinks it's time to do some further development. She came to the factory again and told the management that the sewing machine at home was broken and she wanted to find someone to repair it for herself. Those experienced workers stayed to work and found a younger one, so she named herself Otto. In this way, Otto and Dolly finally had a chance to meet alone. From then on, Otto was often invited to his home by Dolly. Fredo is very busy with his daily work and often can't go home, so Otto goes home alone more often, but the nearby residents also consider these things. It wasn't long before Fred heard something about his family. Euphemistically, he can understand why.

So Fred found his wife. If he wants to ask her what happened, Dolly is very experienced because she has no ability to lie. She said that what her neighbors saw was selling books, and it was normal for her to have a little hobby as a housewife, so she often had a book seller to sell books for herself, because she bought a lot, so she could often see him. The wife was very unfair to Fred and begged her husband not to get angry. After a period of explanation and weakness, her husband didn't take it to heart. Unfortunately, although the storm passed, Dolly did not show any restraint. She even thinks that Otto often comes and goes, so there is a risk of exposure. She actually arranged for Otto to live at home Anyway, her husband is often away from home. She made room for Otto in the attic on the roof. The location is so secret that most people don't notice it at all.

Dramatically, they cheated their husband Fred in this way. Dolly doesn't think there is anything wrong with this behavior at all. She is still secretly happy because her method is so successful. Otto hid it for ten years, but Fred hardly found anything unusual. She hid her lover in the attic 10 years, and the three of them lived in peace until her husband lost a cigarette. ...

In a very accidental quarrel, two people quarreled fiercely in the kitchen. The husband wants to avoid conflict and have a cigarette to calm down. He went back to his room to look for a cigarette, only to find that he had left a cigarette at the bedside. It turned out to be a cigarette that Otto had taken at random before. Husband Fred, thinking that his wife can't smoke, began to ask her what secrets she kept from herself. He once again remembered what his neighbor said ten years ago. He was very angry. Otto, hiding in the attic, also heard the quarrel. He heard that Fred seemed very angry and wanted to fight. Otto may have suppressed his anger for too long. He rushed out of the attic with a gun and was even more angry when he saw Otto's Fred. He knew he had been betrayed for so long. He ignored Otto's hand.

Afterwards, the two handled the scene and pretended to be a burglary. In the end, they actually escaped the crime. They lived together for more than 20 years, and they used Fred's legacy. Dolly always feels uneasy, afraid that her behavior will be exposed. She was going to throw away the gun that Otto used to kill Fred, but it was finally reported by the handlers and Dolly was taken away for investigation. Otto, who was outside, couldn't stand the mental oppression, and finally told the police what he and Dolly had done more than 20 years ago.

They were eventually arrested, but they were not actually convicted because the case of that year had passed the prosecution period. Soon after, Dolly died of illness, and she lived in fear for the last few years.
