Theme:
I finished reading it in one go... And I finally understood a sentence of a song I listened to: "The part that I thought was amazing turned out to be a cliché." Why not the heroine? When she and the male protagonist were inseparable, she also felt that she was different from others, right? But in the end, they still couldn't resist the cruelty of reality, which caused the two people to drift apart. I can't say I have any feelings for the male protagonist. He is a genius, but he is also a prodigal. His behavior is very consistent with that of a scholar, but he hides his unruly heart. Just like the golden vase and plum blossoms. I admit that I clicked in to watch it at first because of Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, how interesting it is, being with the author of H-text. Even though I hate historical dynasties, I read the comments carefully. The content is quite satisfying to me. Every sentence is like a needle piercing my heart, or like a boulder, it is so oppressive that I can't breathe. When I read this book, I was thinking that the author chose Jin Ping Mei instead of a book like Journey to the West, which is also breaking the mind, firstly because Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng is an uncertain person, and secondly, only in this way can the male protagonist be more in line with what Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng should be. He is a man of letters, but he is also a person who benefits from male power. He stands on the top of the mountain and sees the disadvantages of the mountain. He will refute it, but he will not come down from the mountain. But I also want to express my inner feelings. The more debauched the novel, the more profiteers it covers. What do the heroines say... I've read a book with the same theme. The heroine in that book didn't care whether the hero was clean or not. I liked that. But don't let Wan Niang go. Because she has always held on to her thoughts in her heart. Even if everyone goes against her, no matter how weak, vulnerable, weak, and lonely she is... She will not give up. I admire people like the heroine very much, even if they are unknown and cannot make waves in the world, they still stick to themselves. It can only be said that the heroine still loves or likes the hero. Only in this way will she care. If we really treat each other as if we were guests, how could we be so alienated that we would not let them get close to each other? The heroine is back, which is great. But it is still difficult to calm down after all. Twenty years of youth... Just looking at this last desolate evening scene makes me feel even more sad for the early spring.
The work is very deep. A simple time travel is so real that it is like what Zhang Ailing described as "a life crawling under the robe", how can a person's human nature be complicated! I can't say whose fault it is, Lingque, the heroine, the hero, Li Si... They each have their own obsessions, but their joys and sorrows are not the same. It is easy to leave when you are young, but forget to come back! Compared to the male protagonist who naturally has the right to choose in a patriarchal society, I appreciate Lingque's struggle and resistance as a person at the bottom! I hope the author can write more wonderful articles!
The beautiful love you once had has to be thrown away after it rots and deteriorates. Sadly, this relationship is like a person living in a dilapidated building. There are cracks that cannot be repaired, but if they are completely destroyed, they will have no home to face the sword. Analyzing the character, the heroine is an ordinary person who traveled through time just after graduation. She is lively and carefree, like a newborn baby who ignorantly observes and explores the world. So she wanted to step out of the embroidered building but fell into the pond, and was taught a profound and cruel lesson. She has no great ability to change this society. She is the only one in the world who clearly knows the air of freedom in the future. We cannot expect female compatriots who have never been exposed to equality and freedom to understand and fight for the righteousness in their hearts based on their imagination. So the heroine is sober and lonely. But she has been fighting in her own way, relying on her husband's love to fight against the rules of the entire world. (Original text: She doesn't want to change the whole world, she just wants to change one person.) But the male protagonist is a vested interest in the rules. He is a man in a feudal society. In that era, he openly had the right to have fun, and the overall idea required him to continue the family line. Therefore, he did not think it was a mistake to take a concubine and have children. In his early days, he had expectations for the court, and the articles he wrote were very different from the impression of the heroine. It can be seen that his pride is slightly different from that of the current literati, but he is actually integrated into it. It was not until later that he wrote the real Jin Ping Mei, and saw through the world of male thieves and female prostitutes in temples and rivers, that he was the Lanling Xiaosheng who the heroine admired deeply. One sister said that there were many powerful women in the historical manuscripts who made their husbands' families unable to lift their heads, but the heroine once confessed her inner feelings, saying that she didn't care about things that were important to women in this era. She didn't care about the honor after death, the favor she received compared to a concubine, or the power and status. She didn't want to be Wang Xifeng at all. Suddenly I thought of the story of Qi Jiguang and the Queen of Jiangmenhu. An extremely outstanding woman like Mrs. Wang ended up breaking up with her. It can only be said that the feudal society's thoughts oppressed countless bright pearls. But what this sister said is right. Life goes on and the fight goes on. It is better to fight than to despair, especially now that our environment is hundreds of times stronger than in the past. This was bought with the blood and tears of countless martyrs. We must continue to work hard to get better. Personally, I feel that the heroine looked like Shi Xiangyun at first, but later she was transformed into a combination of Lin Daiyu (who values friendship over interests, stubborn pursuit and determination of single-mindedness) and Xue Baochai (who is rational, dignified, gentle, and decent) (I may have misunderstood or didn't understand it well, this is just my personal understanding, sisters, please don't take pictures).
A real novel without the halo of a heroine It's been a long time since I've seen an article like this.
I read a little bit of it in 2018. At that time, I felt that the writing was boring. Every day seemed to be the same. Now I am about to graduate from graduate school. I cried in the middle of the night while reading it. It was very well written.
The author's writing is thoughtful and not a routine novel. I hope I can continue writing
Grinding pearls into fish eyes, tragic siege
I feel that after reading the whole story, Wang Lang felt regretful and a man of letters, just like the author. As written in the article. This kind of deep affection among men of letters has no real use. I think this kind of words are just to comfort himself. It's just that it's very hypocritical to show how deeply he loves Wei Jia. Even when he remembered his first wife's name, she mostly called her Wei Wanniang, and did not take Wei Jia seriously.
I bought a chapter specifically for the review. In fact, when I saw the free chapter, I felt depressed and a little uneasy. Then I searched for spoilers on the Internet and read the comments. It was no surprise that I was 😭 (Don't imitate me). The author's writing is very good. In fact, I saw them saying that Wei Jia was not happy that she had not reconciled until her death. Maybe she was hoping for a happy ending no matter what. And I feel that after high school students go to college, the society is actually very cruel and disillusioned, and getting married is not necessarily as good as in ancient times (at least in ancient times, it was considered an exploitative class, but now it can only be cattle and horses, not only materially, but also spiritually. Who doesn't love a good wife and mother, I come first) My beautiful imagination and recognition of 1v1 ended a few years ago (Peony position), I think that being consistent with people (men and women) is a spiritual shackles, and people can choose freely. These are the disapprovals that come to mind. But just like reading Scarlett when I was a child, I admire the longing and firmness in the heroine's heart. She can choose whatever she wants, and nothing can stop it. I can't explain it. It's like a warm life force fire. No matter what the ending is, it makes me heartbroken. Modern society has always given women a broader world and opportunities, more and better choices and rights. The author's writing style is very good, but the writing style is so hard that I can't bear to comment but can't bear to continue reading. Seeing the endings of some people in the comment area, I thought about living again. If you live long enough, comedy becomes tragedy. Some people's joy is only temporary, but it is gratifying to write a story about temporary joy. The prodigal son turns back and meets again after a long separation. Some people have a miserable life and then turn sharply when they see the light of day. It depends on where the end is (of course, not all are tragedies, but people end up in nothingness)
Alas, I have so many thoughts but I don't know where to start.
