Author: I am on the plateau
(2)
Shiyin and Yucun are both scholars.
It’s just that when they meet, their situation is very different.
Shiyin is in a vast world, so there is no need to take fame and honor into his heart. Studying brings leisurely energy and immortal energy. When I was tired of releasing the book, I lay in a few hiding places, and I almost let out a long roar. The realm of Zhuangzi, who was sitting in a dead wood and sitting in the ashes, was not far away!
Yucun is in poverty. He was born in the end of the world. His foundation has been exhausted. He temporarily stayed in the temple and made a living by selling words and writing essays every day. Almost reached a state of poverty and despair.
When survival is facing a crisis, "seeking fame and fortune and then building a foundation" has become Yucun's only hope to survive in this world. However, the four words "drunk" describe the cruel reality of society that "it is hard to move without money". If it is not the case with the rain village, the countless rain villages described by the author are hard to move forward. Power and profit force and distort the once kind lives. In the torrent of time, there will always be many people's edges and corners, but more people are still proud after hardships.
Yucun’s outlook on life “seeking fame and fortune and then completing his foundation” is in line with the mainstream of that era, and it is understandable. But the proverb says: It is better to go home to grow sweet potatoes than to be an official and not to be a master of the people. It is clear that in ancient society, officials and the people once reached a simple consensus on the functions of officials: whether they are a clean and good official, and whether they can be an official for the people is the minimum standard. Yucun, who is determined to enter the career of officialdom, has no thought of making decisions for the people, let alone the sentiment of Confucians in the world. From the perspective of modern psychology, motivation determines behavior. Judging from the motives of Yucun as an official, it is just to make a fortune for self-interest.
After watching Yucun appear, Shiyin invited him to the study to talk. Unfortunately, Master Yan came to visit him in a hurry and Shiyin went to the front hall to meet the guests. Yucun twirls around books to relieve boredom. I think of a Confucian scholar in Yucun, and he must understand the ancient saying "I don't keep my ears at the window and only read the books of sages." Unexpectedly, the woman outside the window coughed a few times, which made him get up and look out the window. He saw a girl picking flowers, "Although it is not very beautiful, it is also moving." "Yucun was stunned." Although he had only a few strokes, it was cold and hot, and laughed and ridiculed. If there is a male servant singing outside the window, I wonder if Yucun will get up and look out the window? A sentence is stunned and contains how many ideas in the author’s mind? Of course, we don’t have to mock Yucun’s good morals (reading the books of sages) as well as lust (looking at the girl outside the window and being stunned), nor do we have to mock Yucun’s real man who has no wife? When he is at the time of "the title of the Golden List", why not be afraid of "the wedding night"? (In fact, the following text has been added and the bridal chamber has been completed). Let us explore it based on the psychology of daily life. "Everyone has a love for beauty"; "A beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman" is also a normal mentality for a man. In contrast to the previous article, in addition to "seeking fame and fortune and then completing his foundation", finding a beautiful wife is also one of Yucun's life goals.
The following text is also a wonderful text, and the wonderful thing is that it also describes the appearance of Yucun from Yahuan's eyes. Simply put, although wearing old clothes with old towels, Yucun is a poor person with a dignified appearance and a dignified demeanor. Zhipi is merciless: It is the most ridiculous novel in which the most ridiculous novel uses words such as "rat ears and eagle cheeks". A proverb says: It is difficult to draw a person's bones. Sincerity means that in the eyes of many researchers, Zhi Yanzhai's identity is difficult to determine, but there is a basic recognition that this person has seen the complete version of "Dream of Red Mansions". He gave Yucun a comment: The traitor must be not an impulse. This comment reveals Yucun’s basic character - treacherous. This word should be a core word for Yucun’s personality composition. At this time, the author wrote about the inner activities of the two at this moment with great interest. Their thoughts formed a strong contrast, bringing a comedic effect:
From Yahuan's psychological description, first of all, he had to look at Yucun's eyes. One was to sympathize with Yucun's poverty and embarrassment, thinking that Zhen Shiyin intended to help Zhou Ji, and the other was to see his extraordinary demeanor. After careful study, it is difficult to make a conclusion whether love arises. It is indeed not enough to express it with sympathy.What is closer to Cao Gong's intention is curiosity. Don't forget that the maid looked at Yucun more often, which has a great relationship with her master Shiyin. Shiyin's evaluation affected the maid's consciousness. "It is strange that he must not be a person who has been trapped for a long time." This is not just an independent judgment made by the maid when she saw Yucun, but what was passing by her heart at this time was Shiyin's past judgment of Yucun, so after taking a look, the rest was just curiosity about Yucun.
But looking at Yucun’s psychological activities at this time, what a vivid contrast and what a spicy ridicule! "I mean to him", where does this judgment come from? "Ecstasy" did he know the reason why she turned back? As for the "giant-eyed hero, confidant", is this really the case? Of course we cannot deprive Yucun of his desire for love, because it is a legitimate need of people. Cao Gong objectively described the two states of mood, one cold and one hot, with respect for the respective personality of this man and one woman, and also with new thoughts and new explorations of similar stories of talented men and beautiful women in distress. But he quietly hid his love and hate, leaving readers with huge space for thinking.
Let’s look at Yucun, what will happen when facing a specious love!
It turns out that Yucun saw the maid of the Zhen family that day and had reviewed him twice. He was a confidant and always cared about his heart. It is Mid-Autumn Festival again, and he can't help but have feelings for the moon, so he sings five-character poems, expressing a soft corner of Yucun's heart. Just as he commented that he also has both good and evil spirits, he also has a passionate side.
The grandeur of Cao Gong is impressing, and the love poem revolves around the words "wish" and "sorrow". May be a wish for three lives. May he have gone through three lifetimes and finally got married in the world. What he admires is not a rich lady like Cui Yingying, but a maid who does not have a very beautiful appearance in the Zhen Mansion. It can be seen that his feelings are sincere. Sorrow is a period of sorrow, what are you worried about? You left me alone, went to the Jade Tower, frowned for me, just for my poverty, but forgot how lonely you are! Alas, I can’t accompany you, if Yueguang understands my heart, he will accompany that kind girl! He lived in Hulu Temple in poverty, so lonely, but he was worried about the maid. From the later text, he finally took it as a concubine and later helped him as a official wife. Cao Gong affirmed his love. Although there are more factors in unrequited love, it does not hinder the sincerity of Yucun's relationship.
After the rain village chanted, he thought about his life's ambitions. Before the time came, he scratched his head and sighed at the sky, and chanted a couplet again: Jade is in the pocket and seeks good prices, and the hairpin is in the box waiting for the time to fly.
These sentences are simply a stroke of magic. The troubles of love have made Yucun vent their true thoughts that have been suppressed in his heart. He calls himself jade and claims to be a hairpin, but he can only wait for the appearance of a person who has a good price. He can only wait for the opportunity and opportunity to soar to the sky, which complements Baochai's sentence "The good wind will send me to the sky with its power." One hopes to embark on the official path of a man in feudal society, and the other hopes to have a brother like Yang Guozhong help him into the ranks of concubines. These two people embody the highest value positioning of men and women in feudal society.
To solve the troubles of love, the urgent wish in Yucun's heart is now in Yucun.
Freud's theory of desire was comically fulfilled in Yumura.
Don’t forget Cao Gong’s seemingly leisurely stroke: suddenly thinking about his lifelong ambitions.
What is Yucun’s lifelong ambition?
Seek fame and fortune, and then complete your foundation.
When you read this, you can add four words: Marry a wife.
