Definition
吃干醋
Literally means:
drink dry vinegar
Actually means:
be the first to bear hardships and the last to enjoy comforts; be truly unselfish
干 in this phrase does not mean"dry", but refers to with no reason or out of nowhere.
This phrase figuratively means that one part of the a couple harbors an unreasonable jealousy towards a third party who has nothing to do with their love or marriage.
“干”不是“没有水分”的意思，而是“没有原因”。
吃干醋，比喻夫妻或恋人中的一方妒忌跟他们的爱情不相干的人，或没有道理地对跟他们的爱情毫不相干的人产生嫉妒的情绪。
