"Sitting Temporarily" is a novel by the famous writer Jia Pingwa. It is set in Xi'an and tells the story of a group of independent and struggling urban women who rely on each other spiritually. Taking Xia Zihua, who was ill and hospitalized until her death, as a clue, and Hai Ruo, the owner of the teahouse who was temporarily sitting at the teahouse, as the center, it depicts the appearance of all living beings in the Red Mansion. They are mysterious and beautiful, and when they come and go, they are both deeply attractive and unpredictable.
The balmy world in the teahouse is a microcosm of society, and the interlocking fates show the characters' living conditions and mental state. In the trivial days, I can see the beauty of tea art, calligraphy, painting, and antiques, and realize the wisdom of Buddhism and life.
Behind the clumsy and clumsy words with endless aftertaste, it seems that the author is upstairs in the tea house, watching with compassion and concern: life is short, come and sit in the novel.
