Tales of the West City

"You are in the bright sunshine in the south, and the snow is falling, and I am in the cold night in the north, all seasons are like spring." Every time I listen to this song, I always think of the story of Shen Shi and Canaan. Canaan Chen. When you first watch it, you will feel that she is very contradictory. I don't like biology, but I went to graduate school. I know how to play the piano, but I never touch it. You can live a very simple life, but having to return to Shen Shi is like throwing yourself into muddy water. But at the end of reading, when she knelt on the floor of the hospital and cried and said, "Mom, please tell me something," I suddenly understood that all her contradictions were because she had never truly lived for herself. After her grandfather passed away, she secretly changed her choice from music to biology because the biology department's first-year enrollment tuition was halved. But think about it, she was only eighteen years old at that time. Later, something happened to her mother, and she took "revenge on the Shen family" on her shoulders again, like a mission, and she carried it for several years. Almost all the important decisions in her life were not for herself. So when she finally said, "I regret not listening to my mother's words, otherwise I would have gotten married and had children by now," I was really sad and felt that she was too lonely. One person carries so much stuff. She didn't tell anyone this, including Maomao. When he is with Shen Shi, he pretends to be good, gentle, and doesn't care. In front of Bai Zhiyuan, he pretended to be diligent, hard-working, and passionate about academics. Pretending to be happy, relaxed, and everything was fine in front of my mother and grandma. She considered everyone's expectations and pain, but not her own. Shen Shi. The typical male protagonist of Gao Ganwen, haha. He is rich and powerful, and has many women around him. He treats everyone indifferently and doesn't take anyone seriously. As I read, I discovered that it wasn't that he didn't care, it was that everything he cared about had been taken away! His mother, a woman whom he loved all his life until his death and had no status. Trapped in a pear garden with nothing but the attic. I have watched my mother grow up like this, watched my father marry someone else, and watched my grandma control everyone's destiny in the name of "for your own good." It is impossible to still believe in love and dare to love someone without reservation. So he lived his life as if he didn't care about anything. He is very good at acting on occasion, socializing in a drinking party, and talking about business with a woman in his arms. But after meeting Chen Canan, he was different. There are a few details that make me feel that Shen Shi is really in love. The first one was said by the janitor at Xiangjiang No. 1 Middle School. Shen Shi made a bet with his master, saying, "If you don't open the door, she won't marry me." At that time, he and Chen Canan had not yet reconciled, and he had already thought about marrying her. Chen Jianan was the last to know this detail, and when I saw it, my nose turned upside down. The second one is in the fitting room in Xicheng. He went to buy a dress and shoes for her, and asked for her in the fitting room. After he was done, he knelt down to pick up her underwear. That action was so intimate, not like a superior Mr. Shen, but like a man who really cared about the other person. The third one is what he said to Lao Zhang, "Why would a person who hasn't seen him in more than two years change so much?" And then he gave two answers, either he was really reborn, or he was too good at pretending back then. He actually knew everything. He knew that Chen Canan had a purpose in approaching him, but he didn't tell him. I'm just scared! The fourth one is the most sadistic ending in the article. The engagement at the press conference was canceled and Chen Canan no longer wanted him. "I want to be a normal person," she said. Then when Shen Shi said "You are cruel enough" (before the article was changed) and "I will help you" (after the article was changed), I felt that he did not blame Chen Jianan, but he should blame himself for not protecting her well and letting her bear everything. But in the final analysis, it's probably because he has too many things he can't help himself. Some supporting characters. Grandma Ms. Chen Xiuqin is the person who moved me the most in this story. I would like to call her the coolest old lady! She smokes, plays mahjong, binge-watches dramas, and watches Hu Ge (which I also like haha). She lives a more energetic life in her seventies than a young person. But she was not heartless, she hid all her sadness. When her grandfather passed away, she secretly smoked cigarettes all night. When Chen's mother left, she didn't shed a single tear. She just hugged Chen Canan and said, "Don't cry." She said to Chen Canan, "Go ahead, it's not like we won't see him again." She encouraged Chen Canan to pursue the life he wanted. She wouldn't let Chen Canan give up any opportunity because of her. Such an old man is Chen Jianan's true spiritual support. Bai Zhiyuan is also a person who impressed me deeply. He is not as dazzling as Shen Shi, but he has the ideals and persistence of an intellectual. I think he is more like a guide on Chen Canan's growth path. He said to Chen Canan, "The world is big and you are the biggest," he said, "Nothing is more important than health and family," and "Some things should not be obsessed with too deeply, as they may hurt others and yourself." Chen Jianan did not understand these words at the time, but he gradually understood them later. It was precisely because of Bo Zhiyuan's constant questioning and guidance that Chen Jianan began to truly think about the life he wanted. Maomao is one of Chen Canan's few friends. She goes crazy with Chen Canan, makes trouble with her, drinks with her, and cries with her. She knew that Chen Canan was doing something very dangerous, but she didn't stop it because she knew she couldn't stop it. She just appears when she is needed and leaves silently when she is not. Finally, she asked Shen Shi, "Do you love her?" Shen Shi did not answer. Maomao actually knew the answer, she just wanted Shen Shi to tell it himself. And Zhou Ran. I work in a bank and want to find a suitable person to marry. Being good to Chen Canan means really being good to her. There is no calculation or purpose. In Chapter 5, Chen Canan asked him, "Do you care about a girl's virginity?" He replied, "It doesn't matter how she plays before we get together. I only care about her after she gets together with me." This kind of good man (I think my brother-in-law also said this in time, haha!), But Chen Canan's heart is not with him. Later, Zhou Ran and Maomao got together, and I laughed when I saw that part. Two normal people live a normal life together. What Chen Canan couldn't do at the time, she asked her friends to do for her. I like the word "past things" very much. Because it itself has a meaning of "it has passed". No matter how painful, difficult, or reluctant it is at the time, it will eventually become a "past" that can only be recalled and cannot be repeated. I remember that before Chun Yu revised the article, the ending was on an overpass in Xicheng. The wind blew up her skirt. She stepped off the overpass and walked forward without looking back. Because that image was so powerful, I remembered it for many years. She could finally live for herself, no longer for anyone or anything, just herself. But Chen Canan, has she really let go? I have no idea. But all I know is that she can finally stop pretending. No need to pretend to be good in front of Shen Shi, no need to pretend to work hard in front of Bai Zhiyuan, no need to pretend to be fine in front of everyone. She can be sad. My mother said in the letter, "Live a good life." What does it mean to live a good life? Probably love if you want to love, cry if you want to cry, leave if you want to leave, and stay if you want to stay. You don't have to worry about what others think of you, you don't have to worry about everyone's expectations and pain. Chen Canan finally understood this truth. But when she realized it, her mother was gone. This is life. You don't know what is most important until you lose it. Past events in Xicheng, Past events in Xicheng. The past is gone, we can pursue it. I hope that Chen Canan, who is walking slowly in that sunset, can be happier, more selfish, and live for himself in the future.

It hurts. . I couldn't tell where the pain was right now. I just feel very sorry and sad. I regret finishing it so quickly. You should watch it slowly. What a pity. I talk about them and I talk about life.

I just finished chasing, is it too late?

Why was the ending changed?

What hasn't changed from high school to now is my love for this book. [Red heart]

It's been two years since I dug out the book Xicheng from my bookshelf. I wonder if it's because I'm getting older. Some days, I like to read old stories to retrieve the memories of reading books before. In fact, it's been from junior high school to now that I'm doing an internship. It's so fast. It's been 5 years since I read this story. I'm in a daze. Fortunately, Chunyu, you are still writing articles. I feel very hopeful and life is getting better and better.

Why is the plot different from the last pregnancy photo on the Internet?

Why do I feel like the ending of this article is so weird...

"Slowly emerging from the crowd on the street..." This is a big bug for the author~
