If you don't read the Water Margin, and you don't read the Three Kingdoms, when is it more appropriate to read Dream of Red Mansions?
As the saying goes, if you don't read the Water Margin, you don't read the Three Kingdoms.
First of all, let's talk about whether to read the Water Margin, that is, when people are young, it is best not to read "Water Margin", why?
is because "Water Margin" contains a lot of bloody, violent, erotic and other plots, which may have a bad impact on young people.
In addition, "Water Margin" depicts a group of bandits, hooligans, villains and other marginal characters who come together for various reasons, and the actions and thoughts of these characters may have a negative impact on the values and morals of young people.
To sum up, "Water Margin" talks about violence and rebellion, and young people are undecided, and they are afraid that they will learn badly after watching it.
Then why don't you read the Three Kingdoms?
Because "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is full of plots such as intrigue, war, and intrigue, these contents may cause too much thinking and emotion for the elderly, and may even lead to some bad emotions.
In addition, the life experiences and values of older people have been relatively stable, and reading some conspiracy stories may interfere too much with their minds.
Older people should be generous and peaceful, and should no longer look at these things that make people's hearts unquiet.
As one of the four famous novels, "Dream of Red Mansions", when is the right time to read it?
I think it's appropriate to read it whenever it is.
Why?
What I understand is that the book "Dream of Red Mansions" is really all-encompassing, not only the detailed description of human nature and emotions, but also the depiction of poetry and songs, the depiction of life made by wine, and the wonderful output of delicious scenery.
Therefore, there is something to be gained by reading at every age.
When you read it when you were a teenager, because your heart is the same as that of Baoyu and Daiyu, you will be able to read the purity and tenderness of the emotions described in the book.
When you reach middle age, at this time, you have experienced the vicissitudes of the world, both old and young, and you will probably be able to read more about life.
For Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and others, these are both old-fashioned and harsh, and these adults who seem to appear as negative characters in the book will also have a certain understanding and tolerance.
Then when you read it again in old age, you will probably be able to read the Ten Thousand Laws better.
First, the source is empty, this kind of calm and helplessness.
Maybe you have the most real understanding of "Okay Song".
For things like life and fate, you will look away and look down, let go of a lot of obsessions, and live a peaceful life.
In other words, at different ages and in different moods, people's understanding of Dream of Red Mansions is different.
This is like Jiang Jie's "Poppy Beauty Listening to the Rain" in the Song Dynasty:
The young man listened to the rain song upstairs, and the red candles were dim.
In the prime of life, listening to the rain in the passenger boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken geese are called the west wind.
Now listening to the rain monk's house, the temples have stars.
The joys and sorrows are always ruthless, one step ahead, bit by bit until dawn.
As we grow older, people's mood is constantly changing, so each age group will have different understandings and feelings, learn different things, and receive different comforts.
In addition, whenever you watch Dream of Red Mansions, you can always see the elegance and delicacy of ancient Chinese aristocratic life, and feel the elegance and calmness of classical Chinese culture.
You will feel that "Dream of Red Mansions" depicts a world that has disappeared but is still extremely fascinating.
At that time, the Qing Dynasty poet Gong Zizhen's "Song Dynasty in the Court Xiangfeng" has a poem that is particularly good, he said, 10,000 people shake hands from it, so that my sleeves are fragrant for three years.
It means that in the midst of the multitude, thou hast stretched out thy hand to me, and hast left thy fragrance on my sleeve, which has remained in my heart for three years.
This is the feeling when I read "Dream of Red Mansions" now, as soon as you touch it, turn the pages of it, and moisten the words in it, your soul will be contaminated with fragrance, and it will not go away for a long time, the age changes, the mood changes, and you can read different feelings every time.
Therefore, no matter how old you are now, it is recommended that you go to the world of "Dream of Red Mansions", and you will feel that this trip is worthwhile.
It's so sweet!
