Features: This is the benefit of marriage—it’s convenient for mutual supervision. As for being single, it’s hard to say who knows what you might hide. Without supervision. Therefore, requiring residents to live in a collective dormitory is a preventive measure. But mutual supervision between a married couple in bed is certainly more comfortable than eight people supervising each other through mosquito nets. "A day of marriage is a hundred days of (gratitude)," with mutual supervision. But in times of (loving each other) and (mutual trust), it’s still the majority. It’s better to have a (time bomb) sleeping beside you than to share a dormitory with eight (tigers). In a collective dormitory, you’re truly afraid to turn left in case Xiao Wang hears you, and turning right makes you worry about Lao Li’s eyes being open while his mind’s not. You’re just pretending to sleep. Staying in the dormitory involves considering how to speak to get along harmoniously with your roommates. Outside the dormitory, you’re afraid others might read your diary.
