Overview of father's illness;
In Shaoxing, the author's childhood, his father suffered from severe edema and could not recover for many years. Two doctors called "imperial doctors" were invited to see him at home. The consultation fee is high, many prescriptions have been prescribed, and many strange drugs have been used, but the effect has never been seen. My father finally passed away. I heard that the imperial doctor still sits on his back every day, living in luxury and strong physique. It's really irritating.
The author writes ironically that quacks mislead people, and the medical skills of two "famous doctors" are more unique than one, which shows that some Chinese medicine practitioners pretend to be profound. Through their resignations one after another, their father's condition deteriorated step by step, and through family changes, they expressed their deep hatred for quacks, so they mystified, extorted and ignored human lives, making people realize the sadness of life.
Appreciation of father's illness;
The narrative language of this essay is simple and natural, but the humorous and pungent satire makes it look radiant. For example, the old lady pulled the patient's hand out of the account. As soon as he pressed it, it was cold and had no pulse, so he nodded and said,' Hmm! I understand this disease. "I walked leisurely to the table, took the prescription paper and wrote:-'Pay Angelababy one hundred yuan by ticket'.
Here is the signature and a note. Another example is "He came to the clinic one day, asked about the symptoms, and said sincerely:-'I recommend him to have a look. His illness is not serious, but he can recover quickly through his treatment.
Another example is "He still calmly opened a square, fell down, but came back from the quarrel." In all these narratives, the author didn't make any comments, but his contempt and disgust for quacks deeply infected readers and made them scream.
The writing background and author introduction of Father's Disease;
Writing background:
When Lu Xun 13 years old, he was immediately imprisoned because his grandfather cheated in the exam. The Qing government immediately plundered wealth and oil, and Lu Xun's father was also implicated, losing the qualification of having obtained the provincial examination, and he also fell ill. Lu Xun also became a master of poverty, falling into poverty from a well-off family. His father was killed by an ignorant quack, and all kinds of ups and downs during his illness caused incurable grief to Mr. Lu Xun.
The author carved the image of a quack with an ironic knife. The wonderful drug quotations of two "famous doctors" have never been heard, which shows that their affectation, the deterioration of their father's condition and the major changes in their families have further reflected their condemnation of quacks.
