After rebirth, I became a great writer

Chapter 413 I Can't Understand This Book!

I thought time was very slow and life was very slow. However, the years passed, the mountains and mausoleums were far away, day and night, and every year

When I looked back suddenly, I realized that I had been young for a long time ago.

This was the feeling that a middle-aged man had just passed the thirty-five years old. Cui Ziwei looked at the rustling autumn wind outside the window and thought of two poems inadvertently.

"I haven't realized the dream of spring grass in the pond, and the sound of autumn leaves on the steps"

After reading these two lines of poetry, Cui Ziwei thought of Hongwen because it comes from "Hongwen Poetry Collection" and is an official recommended book in the last library collection event.

It was at that time that he became one of the vast number of Hongwen's book fans. Calculate the time, it has been several years since today.

Cui Zijian is a relatively "tragic" book fan, because since Hongwen participated in the library collection activity, he has no new works. He only left a poem on the wedding day, saying that he was preparing for a new book, and this preparation lasted for three years.

During the three years, Cui Zijian read Hongwen's works many times in addition to online articles. His favorite is "Border Town" and a collection of poems.

Cui Zijian is a reader who likes writing art. He has a bit of a literati sentimental sentiment in his bones. It is proof that he just saw the chanting of poems in Qiu Feng.

In his words, even if the burden of life overwhelms the shoulders, we must find the joy of life in the words.

After watching the autumn scenery for a while, Cui Zijian withdrew his gaze and went back to bed to rest. Unfortunately, because he was too excited, he tossed and tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep, which made his wife, who was applying a facial mask, very dissatisfied.

Tomorrow is the weekend, and I will go to bed before dark. I will literally sleep, not the kind of food that I pay for. The more I think about it, the more angry my wife becomes, and she kicked her harder.

Unexpectedly, this kick made Cui Zijian more energetic. He suddenly remembered that exercise could help him sleep, so he consumed it well and then fell asleep.

There is a reason why he was excited and went to bed early. The new book that Hongwen had prepared for three years will be officially released tomorrow. He wants to get up early and go to the bookstore to queue up.

No words all night.

Early in the morning, the phone hidden under the pillow vibrates and the alarm clock rang.

Cui Zijian woke up from his sleep. After a few seconds of confusion, he turned off the alarm clock and secretly looked at his wife beside him.

Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, she breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time she was content. It seemed that she performed well last night.

He turned over and got out of bed. Before leaving the door, he had great experience wearing more coats, took another carry-on bag, and quietly went out.

At this time, the moon is bright and the Milky Way is bright and the earth is still sleeping. When Cui Zijian arrived at a nearby bookstore, he saw the crowd that had already been lined up.

Most of their makeup bundles are similar to their own, including men and women, and you can even see some children aged 17 or 18.

Cui Zijian felt he was sloppy in an instant. He thought he had come very early, but he didn't expect that there were more crazy book fans than him.

"It seems that everyone has been so tired of Hongwen's three years of preparation for the new book. Hongwen, Hongwen, I hope your new book can bring us surprises, otherwise you will let us down."

Cui Zijian said to himself, and then couldn't help but recite two lines of poetry.

"Even if the Red Mansion returns to the same dream, wealth and honor are as empty as smoke."

In the past three years, countless book fans and authoritative people in the writer circle have inferred that the name of Hongwen’s new book is no longer a secret, but the plot of the story is diverse, and there is no definite statement yet.

Even when the new book was pre-sale last week, Hongwen himself did not reveal much, and only said to female fans that the new book is a novel that shows the beauty of Chinese women from all angles.

This made many female fans very excited, thinking that Hongwen has become more and more respectful to women since she got married.

Time passed minute by minute. After many emotions of anticipation, excitement, anxiety and repeated rotations, the main entrance of the bookstore finally began.

Fortunately, there was no scene of rushing to the line. After all, people who like to read books still have basic qualities.

It was an hour later when Cui Zijian's turn came. Before he could speak, the teller of the bookstore said directly.

"The two volumes of the hardcover version are 88 yuan, and the two volumes of the ordinary version are 48 yuan, which one is ?"

Cui Zijian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was normal for the teller to be too lazy to interrogate the book because of Hongwen's new book.

He said, "You need a hardcover version."

The hardcover version is a bit expensive, but the paper is good, the printing quality is good, the outer packaging is better, there are color pictures and special easter eggs inside, and this is the first edition and it has collection value.

The bookstore staff was skillful and quickly handed Cui Zijian two beautifully packaged books to him. The special ink and book fragrance made him enjoy it very much, and it also made him give up the idea of ​​buying soy milk and fried dough sticks later.

When he came, he was like the wind, and when he was like the wind, Cui Zijian quickly returned home and did not go to the bedroom. He directly found a sofa in the living room to sit down, and then couldn't wait to take out the books.

The covers of the two books are dark red, and there are three big characters written in the middle, which is the title of the book "Dream of Red Mansions"!

In addition, there is also a beautiful makeup and figure painting, which is a pure classical style. All the characters are women. Cui Zijian counted carefully and found that there were twelve women in total. They looked graceful and beautiful, and they were all wonderful people.

After enjoying the beautiful pictures for a while, Cui Zijian turned on the first page, and the first thing he saw was a poem.

[All the paper is full of absurd words, a handful of bitter tears, it is said that the author is crazy, who can understand the taste of it!]

"Preface poem? What does it mean? Is the meaning of the book full of ridiculous words? Haha, Hongwen, if you really spend three years writing a ridiculous book, it would be really ridiculous."

However, he knew that this was a humble word. Literatures always liked it. Even if they wrote a good book, they would write a few similar words. Both ancient and modern literati liked this tone.

Cui Zijian did not go into the preface poem in depth, so he continued to turn down until he turned to the first chapter, or to be precise, the first chapter.

[The first chapter, Zhen Shiyin dreams and knows the spirit, Jia Yucun is full of ladies!]

"Good guy, it's indeed a classic novel! This chapter is so famous."

He just praised him, but after seeing the content of the text, he was completely confused.

[Readers: Where do you think this book comes from? When it comes to the root cause, although it is almost absurd, it is very interesting to read it carefully. Only by noting the origin below can the reader be clear.

It turned out that when Nuwa was refining stones and repairing the sky, he refined twelve zhang high in Wuji Cliff of Dahuang Mountain and 24 zhang square stones 36,501. The Wa Huang family only used 36,500 yuan, and only one piece left was left without use, so he abandoned it under Qinggeng Peak in this mountain.]

After reading three major paragraphs in a row, hundreds of words, Cui Zijian realized that he was writing a fucking myth. In Hongwen's words, "Dream of Red Mansions" was not written by "man" but fell from the sky, and it originated from a stone for repairing the sky abandoned by Nuwa under Qinggeng Peak.

It was said that one day a monk and a Taoist priest saw that the stone had become spiritual at the foot of the mountain, so they wanted to experience it in the rich and gentle land of the world. Later, after tens of thousands of years, a Taoist Kong Kong came here and saw a huge stone carved with many words, recording the experience of reincarnation of the Bu Tian Stone in the world.

This is the origin of "Dream of Red Mansions", and there is also a separate name called "Stone Story", which is mixed with a short love story of gods, namely the "Fushishi Front Alliance".

In short, Cui Zijian didn't know how to evaluate it, and even felt that Hongwen was a little arrogant.

This is suspected of being boasting. The divine book from heaven means "Dream of Red Mansions" is a divine book?

However, not to mention other things, the writing style is definitely first-class, quite ancient, and it makes him very comfortable to watch.

So Cui Zijian temporarily pressed the idea of ​​diss Hongwen and chose to continue reading.

Next is the main text of the first chapter, saying that a man named Zhen Shiyin accidentally lost his daughter, and a fire burned the house he lived in and went to defect to his father-in-law. As a result, the snobbish father-in-law only gave him some slim land.

Zhen Shiyin was a scholar who didn't know how to go to the fields to take care of crops and lived a poorer life. People around him also said that he was lazy and was too poor to eat and was in poverty. He became depressed and had the idea of ​​suicide.

At this time, he met a limp Taoist and heard the Taoist shouting.

[Everyone in the world knows that gods and immortals are good, but they can’t forget their fame!]

[Where are the generals and ministers in ancient and modern times? A pile of grass is gone!]

[Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, only children and grandchildren cannot forget it!]

[There are many infatuated parents since ancient times, but who has seen them filial children and grandchildren?]

The seven or eight lines of chanting poems made Zhen Shiyin feel sad. He hurriedly caught up with the Taoist priest to ask for help, but the Taoist priest laughed and preached.

At this point, he had a complete enlightenment and became a monk with the Taoist priest. Before leaving, he also made annotations. This annotation was another poem.

And this poem Cui Zijian remembers You Xin because it was exactly the one Hongwen said three years ago.

"It turns out that the poem is called "Good Song". Everything in the world is good, it's good. If it's not good, it's bad. If it's good, it's just good. If it's good, it's just good. It's very interesting. This can prove that their guess is wrong."

After reading this passage, Cui Zijian showed a happy smile.

Aside from the annotation of this poem "The Song of Good", the whole poem is very simple and can even be said to be very vulgar, but with Zhen Shiyin's annotation, it is a very elegant way to see it in the vulgarity.

The meaning is almost clear, which is a metaphor for criticizing social phenomena and criticizing the world's greed pursuit.

In the past three years, many book friends have analyzed this annotation and have a lot of differences. For example, Cui Zijian tends to satirize the greed of people in feudal society and also has a role in warning the world, which is a bit of life philosophy.

As soon as he smiled, Cui Zijian cursed again, saying that he was sarcastic about feudal society. Isn’t there some phenomena in today’s society the same?

I claim to be a pride of a "literati", so I also pursue the "small silver taels" every day!

After quickly skipping this section, he continued to look down.

In fact, Zhen Shiyin’s story is still the foreword, and the next story is the real content of the novel.

Starting from the poor scholar Jia Yucun sponsored by Zhen Shiyin, to the time he became an official and was dismissed from his post, he wandered to Huaiyang and met the salt inspector Lin Ruhai, the two fell in love with him at first sight.

Lin Ruhai invited Jia Yucun to the mansion to teach his daughter, Lin Daiyu.

I have to say that Jia Yucun has a halo of destroying the family. He only taught for a year before Daiyu's mother passed away.

He went on a leisure trip again and met a former friend who told him about the wealthy family Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion, and talked about the composition of several generations of people.

He also mentioned a strange thing, saying that a young man was born in Rong Mansion. He had just given birth to a piece of colorful and crystal jade on his mouth. He grabbed a powder hairpin when he was one year old. He was smart and obedient at the age of seven or eight, and felt refreshed when he saw the girl.

As we were chatting, a happy event suddenly came. A former colleague came over and said that Jia Yucun's boss wanted to use his old man, which meant that he had the chance to resume his post, but he needed someone from the officialdom to recommend him.

Jia Yucun immediately found Lin Ruhai for help. It happened that Daiyu's grandmother was worried that her granddaughter would not be taken care of, so she sent a maid to pick Daiyu up to the capital Jinling, which is Rongguo Mansion.

Lin Ruhai asked Jia Yucun to accompany him and wrote to Daiyu's uncle, Jia Zheng, the highest-ranking leader of Rongguo Mansion, sought reinstatement for him.

When I got here, I came to the third chapter. This time Cui Zijian was very slow to read, and the content stated that Daiyu entered the mansion and met many relatives.

There are many descriptions about these relatives, including the characters' form, clothing, personality, and even the architecture, decoration of Rongguo Mansion, etc.

The writing is very detailed and the portrayal is very vivid and even wonderful, especially when seeing the prince who was born with jade, Jia Baoyu's appearance made Cui Zijian praise him several times in a row, and praise Hongwen's writing style again.

[Wearing a bunch of hair on the head, the purple gold crown embedded in it, the eyebrows are tied to the two dragons and robbing the golden forehead. The face is like the Mid-Autumn Festival moon, the color is like the flowers in spring morning, the temple is like a knife cut, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the face is like peach petals, and the eyes are like autumn waves. Although they are angry and laugh, they are angry and affectionate.]

This is the cousin in Daiyu's eyes. It is the turn of Jia Baoyu's eyes. The content of several lines is even more amazing.

[The state of mind brings sorrow to both faces, and the whole body is sick. Tears are dotted, and the gasps are slightly. When you are leisurely, like beautiful flowers shining on the water, and when you move, like weak willows supporting the wind]

In just a few dozen words, they depict the uniqueness of the two, and what is a classical handsome man and handsome woman.

"Two curves seem to be frowning but not frowning"

Cui Zijian couldn't help but repeat the description of Lin Daiyu. While immersing himself in it, a "tiger roar" suddenly came.

"Cui Zijian, don't you let me sleep peacefully on the weekends? What's your name? What's your mouth muttering?"

But he is his wife, the most important person in the family.

"I'll talk about Lin Daiyu again!" Cui Zijian replied subconsciously.

"Lin Daiyu, who is Lin Daiyu? OK, you are so brave now that you dare to look for another woman on your back."

"No! My wife, I'm talking about the novel. The characters in the novel are Hongwen's new book "Dream of Red Mansions"!"

Cui Zijian quickly explained that he couldn't take the blame! If he really wanted to take it, let Hongwen do it.

"Dream of Red Mansions"? The name is quite nice, let's take a look."

Her wife left the bench she had just picked up. She knew about Hongwen and had read the youth novel he wrote, but she was not a real fan.

Cui Zijian didn't dare to say much, so he obediently delivered the book in his hand.

My wife took it and started to read it "swish" and she was not interested in the preface poems, so she turned directly to the first chapter.

It took only three minutes to read the next time, then two minutes to continue the next time, and then one minute until she threw "Dream of Red Mansions" back into Cui Zijian's hands.

At the same time, there was also a sentence, "Are you sure this written by Hongwen? What is this thing written? It's the same as classical Chinese, and I can't understand it at all!"

ps: I won’t write "Dream of Red Mansions" in detail! It’s not as good as an expert, two chapters are too much!
