Chapter 486 - 223: Only the Matchmaker God Can Rectify This Unhealthy Trend!
[Special Marriage Stone: This is a unique stone refined by the Matchmaker God, using incredibly solid Geng Metal Meteorite as a material, symbolizing a beautiful marriage.
After sincerely praying to the Matchmaker God, holding hands and touching the Marriage Stone can trigger the Red Line, with the attribute "Love Strong as Gold +2", and the feeling of harmonious love. In that instant, you can even envision the scene of growing old together!
Conditions: 1. Wearing red clothing. 2. Truly loving couple. 3. No current faults between the couple.
Note: The Matchmaker God did not anticipate the distorted winds of mortal marriages, and the special Marriage Stone is affected by these winds, causing the Rune representing pure feelings refined by the Matchmaker God to be hidden. Continuous refining for three days is required to eliminate these distorted winds so that the Rune representing pure feelings can be revealed again.]
Chen Han also did not expect that after he just criticized how modern society’s feelings and marriages have become severely distorted, possibly needing the Matchmaker God’s intervention, he unexpectedly received something that can trigger the "Love Strong as Gold +2" attribute.
In other words, as long as this special Marriage Stone is in place, couples can activate the Red Line by holding hands and touching it. This Red Line is different from previous blessings because of the "Love Strong as Gold +2" attribute.
How to say this, many couples are very loving at the beginning, but because of the agitation of modern society, due to various reasons, it often leads to breakups.
It’s not that the love is gone, but societal agitation and pressure cause accumulated societal emotions to explode, with many regretting after fighting or breaking up.
But more often, after the impulse, stubborn personalities or various work-related reasons leave no time, energy, or ability to mend the relationship.
Once this state persists for a week, one becomes numb, eventually running out of energy, and thus leaving things unresolved.
This is a very bad situation.
The high non-marriage rate, low marriage rate, and high divorce rate are also due to the increasing pressure and agitation in society. Most people don’t have the extra energy to maintain relationships for survival.
Of course, the tendency for relationships to prioritize money is also a reason.
Now it’s different; as long as couples truly love each other from the start, they can come to the Chen Family, hold hands, and touch the Marriage Stone to trigger the Red Line with the "Love Strong as Gold +2" attribute.
According to the game’s system attribute effect, once the "Love Strong as Gold +2" attribute is triggered, this couple will surely be harmonious and beautiful for a lifetime, won’t separate, stay loyal to their relationship, and be able to understand each other.
Because love leads to mutual understanding.
Not understanding each other means not loving enough.
Naturally, there are conditions for triggering this effect; it must be a truly loving couple, a very understandable condition—genuine and loving, two points.
If being together requires a monthly payment of ten thousand, and not being together without it, even if they are true couples, they are not truly in love.
No current fault between couples is also a very clear meaning.
Moreover, having a partner while flirting, having male or female confidants, and going out drinking until late at night is definitely not acceptable.
The couple that meets these two points can have their love strong as gold, living harmoniously and beautifully for a lifetime, which is considered meritorious.
At least the man will consistently be good to the woman, and the woman won’t forcefully separate over dowry issues, at least will fight against family pressure, and the man won’t begrudge the dowry, will try to do the best for the woman because of love.
Saving one couple counts as saving one couple.
Perhaps if the number is sufficient, it can really restore the current distorted view of love and marriage.
Of course, some may say, "Love Strong as Gold," but what if they meet a woman with a gambling addiction, or a man with a gambling addiction, and they gamble away the family property, and yet being influenced by this attribute they don’t separate—isn’t that harmful?
One can only say that this is certainly not "Love Strong as Gold," nor can it be harmonious and beautiful.
When a woman or a man truly likes their partner, they are willing to change for them, just as a man is willing to quit smoking for a woman.
As for the requirement to wear red clothing to trigger the Marriage Stone, it’s understandable.
This is a traditional aspect of our country or the Matchmaker God’s divine role.
Think about it, in the past, people in our country got married wearing red. Anyone who dared to wear even a bit of white was cursing the couple, hoping for a divorce soon.
If one considers marriage in terms of metaphysics, now with the increasing divorce rate, there might be reasons related to this. Nowadays, weddings are filled with white wedding dresses, white suits, white candles...
Chen Han thought of this, even mocking himself somewhat, acknowledging sometimes people still admire foreign things. Fashion and trend are two words that confuse everyone dumbfoundedly.
This might be the reason for the high divorce rate.
After all, a joyous event dressed in all white, surrounded by white, starts off without blessings—how could it go well?
Switching to Yin and Yang elements, gold, wood, water, fire, earth: living use wood and fire, deceased use gold and water; wood and fire symbolize growth and vigor, gold and water symbolize desolation, lifelessness—no one would make a joyous occasion filled with gold and water.
Switching to Feng Shui Array, it’s like setting up a lifeless Feng Shui array, meant for ill fortune.
So the requirement to wear red clothing is not surprising, as it represents good meaning.
Even the Matchmaker God did not expect that the distorted winds of mortal love and marriage could affect the special Marriage Stone he refined, requiring continuous refining for three days to eliminate these distortions.
