To be honest, when I wrote this title, I knew you would be fooled.
I am currently reading "Six Chapters of a Floating Life", which is as exciting as a jade in the ocean.
The author Shen Fu was a native of Changzhou in the Qing Dynasty, which is now Suzhou.
"Six Chapters of a Floating Life" is an autobiographical prose written by Shen Fu in 1808. Generally speaking, it is a diary written by a literary youth of the Qing Dynasty.
This talented literary young man came from a family of staff members. He never took the imperial examination and once made a living by selling calligraphy and painting.
If there had been self-media at that time, Mr. Shen’s life might have been much easier.
One chapter in "Six Notes" contains six parts: "Records of Joy in the Boudoir, Notes on Leisure, Notes on Ups and Downs, Notes on Travels, Notes on Zhongshan Calendar, and Notes on Health Care". Shen Fu's The explanation is that "The Book of Songs" placed "Guan Ju", which sings about the love between men and women, in the first chapter, so he also placed "The Music of the Boudoir" at the top of the book.
In the history of Chinese literature, there are many poems and articles describing love, but most of them are inseparable from palace romances or love tragedies under the power of power, etiquette, and law, and rarely involve the love between husband and wife.
Historian Chen Yinke once said: "Our country's literature has always been scrupulous about etiquette and law, and dare not talk much about the relationship between men and women, and it is especially rarely involved in the formal relationship between men and women, such as husband and wife. Building a boudoir and Yan Ni The affection and trivial matters of family obsession are probably not listed in the article, but can only be summarized in general terms. "
In a country of etiquette, the love between husband and wife will make people change their colors. Yeah, weird logic.
In "Joy in the Boudoir", Shen Fu narrates the joy of the couple's boudoir in an affectionate and straightforward way. He writes out the true feelings of sincerity and love between husband and wife in an unconventional way. This kind of creativity has never been seen before.
Chen Mingyun, whose courtesy name is Shuzhen, is the daughter of Mr. Xinyu, her uncle’s family. She was born smart and smart. When she was learning language, she dictated "Pipa Xing" and she could recite it well. He lost his father at the age of four. His mother was Jin, and his younger brother was Kechang. The family was left alone. The Yun is long and pretty, and the girl is red. Three mouths are raised and her ten fingers are supplied. Kechang follows the teacher, and her breasts are perfect. One day, I got "Pipa Xing" in the book "Pipa Xing". I recognized the characters one by one and began to learn to read. In my spare time of embroidery, I gradually began to chant, including the sentence "Autumn invades the human figure and makes it thin, and the frost dyes the chrysanthemum fat". In the remaining year - thirteen years old, I returned to Ningxia with my mother. The two children had no objections. When they saw what they had done, they admired his talent and thought and feared that his blessings would not be deep. However, he could not explain it in his heart. He told his mother: "If you choose a wife for your son, I won't marry anyone who is not a lady. "My mother also loves her gentleness, so she takes off the golden promise and makes a marriage."
Chen Yun, named "the most lovely woman in the history of Chinese literature" by Qian Zhongshu, is smart, diligent and studious.
When Shen Fu first met her at the age of thirteen, he begged his mother: If I am allowed to marry a wife in the future, I will not marry anyone except Yun.
After marriage, the two fell in love. Chen Yun was independent in running the household due to her father's early death, and was hardly suppressed by traditional concepts. Her husband's appreciation and favor further expanded her personality and made her full of enthusiasm for life.
When the lotus blooms in summer, she will wrap tea leaves in gauze and put them in the flower buds. Then she will take them out and brew them with spring water the next morning.
When you are poor and destitute, you can receive your best friends, "pulling hairpins and selling wine, without making a move".
When I went out for an outing, I took the initiative to hire a wonton bearer to follow me. When I was tired, I had hot food.
This was the behavior of a woman more than 200 years ago, and she was not at all humbled by being a woman.
I was invited by friends to arrange flowers and arrange the flowers, so I was able to enjoy the occasion. When he returned home, he called Yun Yan, and Yun said, "I'm sorry that I'm not a man, so I can't go there." Yu said, "My crown and my clothes are also the way to transform a woman into a man." So he braided his temples and added Sweep the eyebrows; add a spare crown, slightly exposing the two manes, which can still be covered up; wear a spare garment, one inch and a half long; fold and sew it around the waist, and add a horse jacket. Yun said: "What will happen to my feet?" Yu said: "There are butterfly shoes in the market. They come in different sizes. They are very easy to buy and they can be used to take off the shoes sooner or later. Isn't that a good thing?" Yun was pleased. After dinner, after finishing dressing up, he walked around with his arms clasped for a long time, then suddenly changed his mind and said, "I'm not leaving. It's inconvenient for people to find out, and it's not allowed for people to hear about it." I urged, "Who knows about the ministers in the temple? Even if I recognize it, I can only laugh at it. My mother is now at Jiu Mei's father-in-law's house. She comes and goes secretly. " Yun looked at herself in the mirror and laughed wildly. Yu Qiang pulled her away and walked away quietly, wandering around the temple without realizing she was a woman.
After I went ashore to pay my respects, I returned to look at the cave in the boat and asked the boatman urgently. Zhouzi pointed out: "Have you ever seen anyone under the willow shade of the long bridge watching the ospreys fishing?" Gai Yun and the boatman's daughter had already landed on the shore. Afterwards, Yun was still wet with sweat, leaning against the girl and lost her mind. Yu patted his shoulder: "Luo Shan is soaked with sweat!" Wu looked back and said, "I'm afraid someone from Qian's family will come to the boat, so I'm avoiding him for now. How can you come back so fast?" Yu smiled and said, "I want to arrest the escaped man."< /p>
Shen Fu also has true love for his wife. Because he knew that his elders would be displeased, he asked Chen Yun to secretly change into men's clothes and go out with her to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lakes and mountains together.
They discussed "The West Chamber" and shared the fun and beauty brought by nature and garden art.
Chen Yun passed away due to illness, and Shen Fu almost wanted to become a monk.
A sad tragedy.
Affection did not overcome the oppression of feudal ethics and the hardships of poor life. The two of them were kicked out of their homes several times and left the family's shelter.
Life was difficult, with neither thick clothes nor illness. Decoction.
At night, half of the luggage was carried off the ship and Fengsen was asked to lie down first.
Qingjun cried at her mother's side, and Yun told her: "Your mother had a hard life and was also crazy about love, so she suffered this fate. Fortunately, your father treated me kindly, so I don't have any other worries when I leave. Within two or three years, arrangements will be made for our reunion. You." When you come to your home, you must behave as a woman and not be like your mother. Your aunt is lucky to have you and will treat you well. I will give you all the things in the box and cage before leaving. At that time, he asked for medical treatment and returned home in a few days. When I went far away to tell him the reason, I heard that my grandfather was okay." Although I hoped that things would get better in two or three years, I didn’t know that my children would be parted forever.
Shen Fu, who is alone, is extremely sad: I advise couples in the world not to hate each other, nor to be too affectionate!
Life is like a dream, how much joy is there?
Thanks to words, we can understand the thoughts of our predecessors and their attitudes towards life, nature and emotions. When the screen was occupied by "Lan Shou, Shiitake Mushrooms", I read "Zi Zhihua Arrangement, "Be prepared for the wind, rain, and dew." I felt a feeling of warmth in my eyes.
In Xiao Shuang Tower, there are people who are "generous, romantic, unruly, quiet and silent". What are they doing when the summer days are long?
Party pairs.
Each person brings two hundred coins and draws lots. If he catches it, he will be the examiner. The examiner will write out a five-character poem and a seven-character poem. He will burn incense and time. If he fails to match, he will be fined. If he matches ten times a day, he will be fined. The money is enough to buy wine. Let's have a drink and meet again tomorrow.
Yun said that if you have common people with food and rice, you will be able to drink coke for life.
When our days are bound by one desire after another, we can no longer realize the pure state of "the breeze and the moon don't cost a cent".
