Check out what rewatching 'Red Sorghum' has taught you about the kind of women men love.

The TV series "Red Sorghum" generated a lot of heated debate when it aired in 2014. It tells the story of humanity and love, feudalism and rebellion. In this drama, the heroine Jiu'er is the focus of the whole drama. She comes from a poor background, with a father who is addicted to gambling, a non-competitive brother and a selfish sister-in-law. In order to pay off his gambling debts, the father first sells his wife, then his house, and finally sells Jiu'er to a leprous young master.

Growing up in a family of such origins, Jiu'er did not succumb to her fate, but fought for her own happiness. She had a childhood sweetheart named Zhang Junjie. He was from a large family and they were very close and had long been engaged to each other. However, Zhang Junjie's family did not agree, so Jiu'er wanted to elope with him. In the face of love, she has always been brave to face her heart. In the face of life, she has never compromised. When she finds out that her mother has been sold, Jiu'er goes around to raise money to save her mother.

Later, I raised the money and found that my mother hanged herself. Instead of wallowing in grief, Jiu'er wanted to avenge her mother's death. In those days, bandits were rampant, feudal ethics prevailed, and the whole environment was like a cage to make Jiu'er bow down. Jiu'er was never a weak traditional woman, she was strong and resolute in her heart, and she had an advanced mindset even though she had not read many books. She has never been afraid to face the judgment of the people, she firmly believes in her own choice, and dares to do and bear the burden.

Such a short-tempered Jiu'er is loved by all the men in the drama. Her childhood friend, Zhang Junjie, will never forget her, the bandit leader has coveted her for a long time, and there is the unruly Yu Zhanyao who gives his all to her.

The times in Red Sorghum are chaotic and pedantic. Women have a low status and are dependent on men throughout their lives. Jiu'er is an exception. She understands early on, "I am no one's, I am my own." It is this independent soul that allows her to make her own choices when faced with love.

In the past, women's marriages were arranged by their parents, but Jiu'er chose to fall in love freely. After spending years with James Zhang, her family is against it. She also wants to be with him. Even envisioned what it would be like to be married to him and have children, which is the most beautiful vision a young girl harbors of love.

The above is to revisit the "Red Sorghum" let me understand that men love women.
