This article has been written in two issues, from the beginning to the last issue of "Almost Protecting the Body", aged 18; The following is written later. As far as the overall structure is concerned, the former part is the main body, and the following supplementary notes enrich the previous content. Accordingly, the article can be divided into two parts.
The first part (from the beginning to "almost the protector of God") focuses on the rise and fall of Xiang, writing about his life here when he was young, changes in his family, memories of his mother and grandmother, and expressing his feelings of joy or sadness. This part can be divided into three layers.
The first layer (the first paragraph) describes the different changes before and after the restoration of Ji Xiangxuan, focusing on the scenery, and pouring the author's affection between the lines. The descriptions of Birds Pecking at that Time and Night on March 5 show the author's interest in studying and living here when he was young. This floor runs through with "hi".
The second layer (the second and third paragraphs) narrates the changes of items, recalls the past events of mother and grandmother, and runs through with "sadness". Among them, the second paragraph is a transitional section connecting the preceding with the following: "How gratifying" has taken care of the previous layer, and "How sad" has caused the following contents. This layer first describes the courtyard changes caused by "half-father", reflects the decline of the family and reveals the appearance of "sadness"; Then, recalling the past events of my mother and grandmother suggests that the author's nostalgia and emotion for the fleeting time, lack of talent and disappointment of relatives is the deepening of "sadness".
The third layer (the fourth paragraph) describes the scene of studying hard behind closed doors and the fact that Xiao Xuan was burned many times. This layer is written concisely, which is a further supplement to Regret for the Past.
The second part ("I aim at this" until the end) adds a paragraph related to the married life, which mainly shows the author's happy and sad mood before and after his wife's death. My wife's "When I am in the Center of the Room" and "Talking about Little Sister" are all written at present, but "Now I am graceful on the cover" is particularly profound and makes people cry.
Although these two books were written in different periods, they both wrote trivial things about family life around them, expressing feelings of joy or sadness, having the same style and emotional connection, and being an inseparable whole.
