I always thought that a person's encounter with a book was a precious fate, maybe when I opened the page, I saw neat words, but under these dull ink colors was a real living soul, this soul often dodged, but also not shy to be exposed.
It is difficult to judge the depth of their depth, because they carry nothing but a torrent of ideas. I often think about the power of a book, but pure words impact people's audio-visual feelings, like waves of the sea, shock the mind, and dive into the consciousness.
"Alive" is such a living book, I deeply remember the feeling of reading "Alive" for the first time, from the initial leisurely to the solemnity later, the fingers turning the pages became more and more hesitant, I felt that there seemed to be a secret expectation in my heart - calling for a turn, a turn that allowed the protagonist Fugui to happiness.
However, I was disappointed that the author was so cruel and stingy, and I read it almost all the way to the end. When I closed the page with sadness, I suddenly saw that the cover was as dark red as blood: as dazzling as the blood on a long wound, but like a surge of life;It seemed to be sad, a heavy sigh, and a warm rhythm ......My tears were falling.
In the book, with Fugui's long smile, he tells his life. From a young master eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling to finally ruining the family business, he was reduced to going down to the ground to make ends meet, and ...... crossing the War of Resistance against Japan, the Civil War, and the famineIn the era, he escaped death, but his family was dismembered by fate.
His beloved relatives died one by one - the old mother died of illness, the young son died suddenly due to blood drawing, his wife died before him when he got sick, the deaf and dumb daughter Fengxia died in childbirth, and the son-in-law died unexpectedly and tragically by the steel plate, leaving only a small grandson bitter root, who was also supported to death in that hungry era.
After reading it, when I saw Fugui say that we still have bitter roots, I knew that under the cruel tip of the author's pen, this child called bitter roots could not be saved, how I hoped that bitter roots could stay!The child represents hope, and the child can't be kept, will there be hope for Fugui?But looking at it, the child still didn't stay, because of poverty, the bitter root can rarely eat beans, Fugui felt sorry for him, cooked a lot of beans, and the bitter root was actually strangled to death!Survive alive!
The cow named Fugui was pulled back by Fugui from the border of death, others said that the cow was older than his father, and he would live for two or three years at most, and the time for Fugui to return to himself indifferently was almost the same, two or three years was enough to live.
Although all this is not all the fault of Fugui's youth, all the things he committed back then were finally buried by him himself. Living is a duty for Fugui, although he has not realized the ambition of reviving his family from chicken to duck to cow, but accompanying his family through his life and staying with his family is not the benefit of living!
His rough, calloused hands buried all his relatives and tears, and he was left alone with the cow.
It must have been a tragedy that he cried with laughter and lived with death. However, he said lightly, without great sorrow, this person who had been tempered by bad luck all his life actually smiled. In the book, the author is as much a listener as the reader, he doesn't comment, he doesn't even have a short sigh, he just presents, but he says what he wants to say leisurely.
When I look back, I don't know how to evaluate Fugui as a person, saying that he is unlucky, but he has spent the longest and darkest night, optimistic and strong;Saying that he was lucky, he buried all his relatives with his own hands, leaving only a sick cow older than him to accompany him.
In fact, Fugui's life represented the fate of most Chinese in that era: from the glitz of being a landlord to the oppression after defeat;From being forced to fight to meeting the People's Liberation Army and going home for reunion;It has experienced the people's communization movement and the ...... of large-scale iron and steel smelting
Layer by layer fades the vanity of life, tears off the reliance on happiness of life layer by layer, and destroys people's strength layer by layer. But in the end, the white and tender ones left behind the softest and purest human temperament, leaving only the only reason for the existence of life - to live, to live for the sake of living. Living, persistently living - has become the only description that can describe Fugui, and it is also the best affirmation and praise of Fugui.
As for happiness or unhappiness, we cannot assert that, perhaps, in the eyes of others, Fugui's life is a life of suffering;But in himself, perhaps, felt more happiness.
Life is the field of life, and every suffering that is sown will grow into an expectation, and they are our hands. No matter what you are bearing, no matter what you are wearing around your neck, no matter what you are carrying on your shoulders!
So being alive is a kind of happiness and a kind of suffering!But no matter what, life is only once, and life is precious!
We have to be like Fugui, no matter what happens, we must live strongly!
