A few days ago, I watched TV and accidentally found that CCTV 10 sets were broadcasting [CCTV Reading Selection, Top Ten Best Books of 2023], and the book "One Hundred Years, Many People, Many Things" was being introduced on the screen, which was really overjoyed!! Isn't this the last book I read?
One Hundred Years, Many People, Many Things" is an oral history of Mr. Yang Yi, written by Professor Yu Bin of Nanjing University. The book consists of four chapters, Chapter 1 reminisces about family events; Chapter 2 recalls the old days of studying in the Chinese and Western Girls' School, Chapter 3 recalls the life and experience of Southwest Associated University, and Chapter 4 recalls the experience of studying at ** University in Chongqing.
There are many famous characters mentioned in the book, and they often appear in history and Chinese textbooks. It's easy and enjoyable to read, and I know a lot of **gossip and interesting facts:
1- With Ba Jin, Da Li Ge (Ba Jin's own brother).
Yang Yi once wrote to Ba Jin, and later kept correspondence, and almost became a family member. Yang Yi and Ba Jin's brother Li Yaolin (the eldest brother Li in the book) often walk together and correspond, and everyone rumors that the two of them are boyfriend and girlfriend. When Yang Yi knew the bad news of Brother Li's death, he cried for three days without eating or drinking.
2- With Shen Congwen.
When I was studying at Southwest Associated University, there was a time before the start of school, and Yang Yi and Shen Congwen were neighbors. Shen Congwen often admonished Yang Yi to study more and work harder. Young people can go to bed later and study more, but Yang Yi turns off the lights early, lies on the bed and sleeps, or chats with friends.
3- With Zhu Ziqing.
Once, Zhu Ziqing and Shen Congwen were working outside, Yang Yi and his friends were chatting next door, and the voice was a little loud, which affected the work of others, but Shen Congwen couldn't help but come over and make his voice quieter. Yang Yi felt that what he did was wrong, so he went to apologize the next day, Zhu Ziqing still kept a straight face, Yang Yi had a bad impression of him from then on, and felt that he was too petty.
4- With Xu Yuanchong.
They are both classmates in the Department of Foreign Languages of Southwest Associated University, but Xu is usually not very active, and the female dormitory rarely talks, and they hardly speak.
5- With her husband Zhao Ruifeng.
They were pregnant before marriage, and Yang Yi became pregnant in her sophomore year, so she stopped studying at Southwest Associated University. This marriage is also not the right door, the family is against it, Zhao is a bit of a "phoenix man" taste, Yang Yi's mother sent 1,000 yuan, he didn't tell Yang Yi that he secretly spent it, and went to Yang Yi's mother to say that he wanted to study abroad and wanted the family to provide for him. Yang Yi wanted to divorce, but after all, due to the influence of his family and mother, he lived his life.
