Bi Fuhai was the last talent of the late Qing Dynasty.
In the thirtieth year of Guangxu, the 19-year-old Bi Fuhai was admitted to Xiucai, and the next year, the imperial examination system, which had lasted for more than 1,300 years, was abolished. After a short sigh that "he was born at the wrong time", Bi Fuhai chose to teach and educate people in the town and lived a peaceful and fulfilling life. However, the good times did not last long, as the warlords fought and the people were displaced, the social turmoil made it impossible for Bi Fuhai to continue his peaceful life. In order to find a way to survive, he had to take his wife and daughter on the road of escape, embarking on a journey full of unknowns and hardships.
The story of "What to Ask for in Life" begins here. The story is divided into five chapters, telling the fate of four generations of Bi Fuhai's family spanning a hundred years, "Wind and Rain" - Bi Fuhai; "Love for the Rest of My Life" - Bi Fuhai's son Bi Wenrong; "The Last Woman in the World" - Bi Wenrong's daughter Bi Qiuyang; "Under the Heavy Snow" - Bi Qiuyang's son Yang Yifu.
The first article "Killing the Husband" is slightly different from the previous four, the protagonist of this one is Lu Qizhen, who is not a descendant of Bi Fuhai, but a child born to Bi Wenrong's lover Hu Huixin before marriage.
Lu Qizhen's real name is Chen Qizhen, when she was two years old, she suddenly had a high fever, and she did not go away for more than ten days. originally said that the child would be sent back after recovery, but for many reasons, Chen Qizhen finally changed her surname to Lu Qizhen, and Hu Huixin never saw the child again.
Bi Wenrong and Hu Huixin got married, and they didn't know that Lu Qizhen existed, but Bi Wenrong always knew that Hu Huixin had a lover in love. Bi Wenrong was forbearant and affectionate, and when he was forced to write a letter to report Hu Huixin, he would rather die than obey, and was thrown into the manure tank...... Hu Huixin took poison and martyred.
Reading Bi Xiaonan's works, I will always be moved by the casual words in his works, I like Bi Xiaonan's sentence in the preface - when suffering comes in your life, I hope you are sober and brave, slowly precipitate benevolence and faith in time, and firmly grasp your destiny in your own hands.
The favorite in the whole story is Yun Niang, in a sense, Yun Niang is the most "transparent" life, she knows what she wants, and she will also put out the fire of the moth to realize her dreams.
Yun Niang was born a cripple and was sold by her father, her husband was a gambler, and almost all bad things were encountered by Yun Niang. Yun Niang is often beaten and scolded by her husband, but as long as her husband is not at home, she dresses herself up beautifully. Yun Niang raised a yard of flowers, she would mash oleander juice to make nails, and she would insert flowers into her sideburns.
Yun Niang said, "I have a sweetheart, I have always had a dream in my heart, and there is always someone waiting for me in my dreams!" "I like Yun Niang's honesty, she knows that love is built on mutual understanding and cherishment, as long as someone treats each other sincerely, no matter the depth of love, she will gladly accept and cherish it.
Fortunately, Yun Niang finally met love, although the ending was not good, but she finally loved vigorously and regardless of it.
"The crippled are alive, and they ponder these dogs every day." This sentence was said by Yun Niang, but in fact, how can there be so much truth in life, as long as you try your best to live, even the most humble life is a great epic that belongs to you.
