Regarding the writer Lu Yao, I first learned about him through the TV series "Ordinary World". While watching this TV series at that time, I was also moved by the love between Tian Xiaoxia and Sun Shaoping and the enthusiasm to devote herself to ideals. Tian Xiaoxia has favorable family conditions, but she is still willing to endure hardships for the endless ideal of doing more meaningful things for the people. She was eventually swept away by the flood and sacrificed...
but What I want to talk about today is not the book "The Ordinary World", but the book "Life" by Lu Yao. "Life" is Lu Yao's famous work. After it was made into a movie, it caused quite a stir in the country.
"Life" was discovered when I visited a bookstore once, and it was placed next to "Ordinary World". When I looked at the title of the book at that time, my first reaction was "this title is so vulgar" and "everyone wants to talk about life at all times. How can life be discussed in a book", but when I saw the author is After Lu Yao, he opened the book in awe. After seeing me flipping through this book, the friend beside me said very pertinently, "The book "Life" is good and very beautiful." After she said that, my interest in reading the book "Life" increased sharply. , Can’t wait to read it.
A few days later, I finished reading "Life", and I thought it was indeed a rare good book. Gao Jialin and Qiaozhen in the movie
Gao Jialin and Liu Qiaozhen are not together, which makes me feel very sad and sorry. Qiaozhen is such a good woman, a girl of gold, hardworking, kind, beautiful and generous. Although she has never studied, she is very sensible and loves her brother Jialing wholeheartedly, and Gao Jialin accepted it in times of crisis. Qiaozhen’s love and help, but after she was able to work in the county town through the “back door”, she abandoned Qiaozhen, who loved him so much, and walked with her female classmate Huang Yaping in the city, very swaggering, and yearned to follow Huang Yaping. After Nanjing, we will surely usher in a career boom. The day failed. Gao Jialin's "back door" as a reporter was reported by the mother of Huang Yaping's former boyfriend Zhang Kenan. In the end, he returned to the countryside and continued to be a farmer. Although at this time, Gao Jialin has realized that he loves Qiaozhen more, but because of sadness and despair, Qiaozhen has already married as another wife.
Qiaozhen completely lost her beloved Galin, and Gao Jialin not only lost her job as a reporter, but also Qiaozhen. Fate, life, sometimes it is so merciless, so teasing, sad and cruel. Qiaozhen in the movie
After watching "Life", the person I love most is Qiaozhen, she is so beautiful, she is one in a million, but destiny treats her like this. It is true that in this novel, Gao Jialin is greedy of vanity and thinks about his own future with all his heart. He is afraid that his talents will be nowhere to be displayed, but he forgets his conscience as a man. In the end, he wants to get the future without dreaming, and is embarrassed. . At first glance, it seems that the evil person has a wicked retribution, which is very hateful, but I also understand that in that special era environment, Gao Jialin is full of poetry and books, and he has lofty ideals and extraordinary talents, and he has a state of mind to stand out. Therefore, I cannot hate Gao Jialin.
Missing a good love is always regrettable .
Who is to blame for the tragedy of Gao Jialin and Liu Qiaozhen? Is it just their own fault? But it is not necessarily true.
In the remote rural areas, in the 1970s and 1980s, the parents’ thinking was still very backward. They felt that it was useless for girls to read. The smart Qiaozhen was delayed. She hadn’t read a book for a day and didn’t know a word. Everything is good. In the face of Gao Jialin, an educated high school graduate, she always loves humblely. She likes educated people, but feels that she is not worthy of educated people. Whenever Gao Jialin feels susceptible to her, it is because she is illiterate, and only knows that the parents are short in the village, and I am afraid that there will be no common language with her in the future.
In addition, in the era when you had to recognize your household registration when you were looking for a job, those with a rural household registration can only stay in the countryside, no matter how talented and talented you are.Things can only stay obediently in the countryside, and even if you honestly do your job, others will walk through the back door and take you down. After Gao Jialin failed in the college entrance examination, the Hui village teacher had been teaching well, but he was replaced by the village secretary's son for no reason. I want to change this matter, it's hard for anyone to settle.
In "Life", in addition to the love that Gao Jialin and Liu Qiaozhen missed, there is another touching thing that is the simplicity and kindness of the villagers.
has always loved Gao Jialin’s single old man Deshun. When Gao Jialin abandoned Liu Qiaozhen, Hao Sheng persuaded him and reiterated his principles and conscience. When Gao Jialin lost his status as a city person and had no job, he could only turn his head back. In the countryside, the people in the village did not fall into trouble, especially when Grandpa Deshun was still able to persuade Gao Jialin to come back and encourage him to overcome this difficulty, rooting in the land before him can make a difference. And Qiaozhen, this The poor girl, even if she was married to someone else, when she learned that Gao Jialin had returned to the countryside, she was saddened to ask someone for Gao Jialin's job as a teacher in the village... so many kind people, Looking at my dear folks and elders, I can always give people hope and touch to live well.
In the process of watching the novel "Life", I watched crying many times. In such a short space, I felt strength, humanity, cruelty, warmth, sincerity and truth, which shows how sincere Lu Yao was when he was writing, and how true his love is. He is really draining his own efforts.
Luyao
In the preface of the book "Life", Lu Yao quoted a passage from Liu Qing, "Although the road to life is long, there are often only a few steps to the point, especially when one is young. The road of human life is straight and there are no forks. For some forks, such as political forks, career forks, and personal life forks, if you take a wrong step, you can affect a period of your life or your entire life. "
think about it carefully, why not be so. Personal choice has something to do with the times, and it is inseparable from personal character.
As the saying goes, "one step is wrong", "the choice is greater than the effort", we can see the importance of choice, but in the face of choice, even if we cannot control the general environment, we must not lose our conscience and principles of life. We will eventually know how to cherish the people in front of us, and don't let unrealistic vanity ruin our conscience as a human being and our steadfastness, in order to obtain stable happiness.
Finally, I want to say that I don't forget my original intention, and I have to always.
