Chapter 4 lust

Wu Youshan once summarized Huang Kan's after-school pastimes as: drinking, smoking, drinking strong tea, listening to singing Kunqu opera, and traveling in mountains and rivers. Huang Kan is delicious.One day, he heard that some acquaintance members of the League had a dinner somewhere, and there was a lot of delicious food during the dinner, but he was not invited.He knew that the reason he was not invited was because he had scolded some of them in the past, but he couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, so he came uninvited.When the banquet host saw Huang Kan enter the door, he was startled, and immediately pretended to be very enthusiastic and invited him to take a seat.Huang Kan didn't say anything, took off his shoes and sat down, and picked out something to eat.After eating, he turned his head and cursed at them while lifting his shoes: "Well, you bastards!" After speaking, he ran away quickly.

In 1915, Zhang Taiyan, Huang Kan's mentor, was placed under house arrest for cursing Yuan Shikai.Huang Kan was afraid that the teacher would be lonely, so he went to stay with him.Zhang Taiyan has always been very particular about food, the cook pretends to be a policeman sent by Yuan Shikai, his skills are poor, and the dishes are monotonous.But Huang Kan has a great appetite, and it is really hard to swallow such a meal, so he encourages Zhang Taiyan to change to a Sichuan cook.In this way, he offended the policeman pretending to be the cook. Because the policeman embezzled the food expenses, Huang Kan's action cut off his money, so he held a grudge, and soon kicked Huang Kan out of the house.

When Zhu Xizu was teaching at Peking University, he hosted a banquet one day for Huang Kan, who was also a disciple of Zhangmen. However, after attending the banquet, Huang Kan said that he would not drink shochu or Shaoxing wine, and he had to drink Wujiapi (beer) by name.Zhu had no choice but to send someone to buy it temporarily. Once, someone had a banquet, and there were delicacies such as bear's paw, snake soup, and eight treasures.After Huang Kan learned about it, he really wanted to go and have a feast.However, he once scolded his master for being inconvenient to go, but he couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, so he asked his friend Liu Chengyu to find a way for him, and promised that he would never say a word from the time of entering the table to the end of the table.Liu Chengyu went to discuss with the host, but the host reluctantly sent a post to invite Huang Kan to the banquet.During the banquet that day, Huang Kan really only ate and didn't talk. Everyone felt strange, thinking that he had changed his temper, but they didn't know that he was willing to "swallow his breath" for the sake of delicious food.

Feng Youlan recalled that when Huang Kan was teaching at Peking University, he often wore a blue satin gown with tufted flowers, a black satin mandarin jacket, a black velvet cap with a white ribbon on his waist.When lecturing to the students, when he reached a critical point, he suddenly stopped and said, "There is a secret here. I can't tell it with the salary of a few hundred yuan from Peking University. If you want me to tell it, you have to pay for it." take me Out to eat. Chen Zushen also recalled how Huang Kan invited his students to treat them to dinner: "(Huang Kan) does not pass on the true knowledge to ordinary disciples. Those who want to learn the true knowledge must worship the teacher. After entering the school, if there is wine and food, the teacher must cook and stay with the teacher. All expenses must be stored on behalf of others, so you will be happy."

Huang Kan has a student who is very respectful to Huang Zhili on weekdays.One day, the student had a banquet at "Tonghe Habitat".After the guest of honor was seated, he suddenly heard Huang Kan talking next door, and learned that Huang Kan was also entertaining guests here, so he hurried over to say hello, but Huang Kan reprimanded him when they met.The student listened carefully for a long time, and seeing that Huang Kan didn't intend to stop at all, he made a plan, called the people from the restaurant, and confessed in front of Huang Kan: "Mr. It's on my account." When Huang Kan heard this, he immediately stopped reprimanding and said to the student, "Okay, let's go.

When Huang Kan offered the course "Shuowen Jiezi" at Peking University, students felt that this course was difficult to understand.Therefore, every final exam, this course has students who fail.Later, the students knew that Huang Kan was delicious, so they picked up what they liked, and raised money to entertain Huang Kan, and he happily went.In the final exam this year, the students all passed the exam.After the principal Cai Yuanpei learned about this, he asked Huang Kan why he violated the school rules and accepted the students' invitation.Huang Kan didn't take it seriously, and replied: "These students still know how to respect teachers, so I don't want to embarrass them."

After Yang Bojun worshiped under Huang Kan, Huang Kan often took him to travel with other disciples.After the tour, find a famous restaurant for dinner.Huang Kan must drink good wine every meal, and he can drink a lot, even the best drinker among the students can't match.Huang Kan said: "When you drink a gentleman, you should drink it lightly and drink it with a big cup. Even if you drink a lot, you are not a gentleman." So it takes two or three hours to eat every time.After dinner, you still have to write rhymes, or write poems, or fill in lyrics, which must be handed in before class the next afternoon.He did it himself and compared it with the students.

Huang Kan loves to eat peanuts. It is said that he loves living in Nanjing because the peanuts in Nanjing are so good. Huang Kan likes to drink and eat crabs.Bian Xiaoxuan recalled Huang Kan, "A group of sages gather together and write poems together. (Huang Kan) holds wine in one hand and pincers in the other, talking and laughing happily." In Huang Kan's later years, his wife cooked all the meals by himself, and every meal must have fish, meat, chicken, duck and mountain delicacies.If Huang Kan finds it unpalatable, he asks his wife to remake it. Sometimes a dish is remade three or four times;

Huang Kan is a good drinker.He and Juzheng are fellow villagers in Hubei, and they were both members of the Tongmenghui in the early years, and they have a very close personal relationship.After Juzheng served as the president of the judiciary, there were many visitors, so after get off work every day, he avoided visitors and was blocked by the porter.One day, Huang Kan went to visit Juzheng. The concierge saw that his appearance and clothes were rustic, and he didn't look like a distinguished guest. As usual, he said "the dean is not at home".But Huang Kan acted like no one else was there, and drove straight in.The concierge hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Huang's sleeve tightly, and shouted: "Who are you? Get out!" Huang Kan was furious, and cursed: "What are you, you don't care!" While breaking free and continuing to walk in, Unexpectedly, with too much force, a big hole was torn in the sleeve.

The dispute between the two alarmed Juzheng, and when he walked out, Huang Kan was furious: "Juesheng (Juzheng character Juesheng), you have become an official, and you have put on an official stand!" Juzheng saw that it was Huang Kan. , hurriedly shouted: "Ji Gang! Don't pay attention to him!" He turned around and reprimanded the porter, saying: "I have taken care of you a long time ago. When this Mr. Huang came, he immediately notified you. Why did you forget!" He replied: "It's my fault that I ate two glasses of wine. I was confused." Juzheng laughed, took Huang Kan's hand and said, "Come in and sit down. There are two bottles of Moutai. Please try it." , the anger disappeared, and he happily followed Juzheng into the door.

According to Chu Chu’s recollection, Huang Kan always drank alcohol during lunch, and when he walked into the classroom in the afternoon, his clear face was slightly red, and the alcohol was not completely gone.At that time, female students always liked to sit in the first row in class, but whenever Huang Kan came to class, they would automatically change to the third row to avoid the smell of alcohol. Huang Kan often goes on outings, eats, drinks with students, and chats freely about knowledge, which greatly inspires students in the chat.His lectures are also unconstrained, without rules, and what he talks about counts, but he is full of knowledge everywhere, which is beyond the understanding of ordinary people.When Huang Kan was in Beijing, Sun Shiyang and Zeng Yan were the "Huangmen servants" who often accompanied him on tours.Sun Shiyang once said: "Mr. likes to travel, but it is difficult to find a partner. However, Yang and Shen said that there is no service and no one will not be with him. He travels all over the suburbs, and the banquets often go late into the night. Mr. Wen Sijun, there must be inscriptions. It is also fun to make changes between orders and works." Among Huang Kan's students, he holds Lu Zongda in high regard.The reason is that Lu Neng can drink and smoke, so he is deeply loved by Huang Kan. The two often discuss studies while eating and drinking. Sometimes a meal takes four or five hours. Lu learns a lot of things that cannot be learned in class. a lot. Huang Kan's nephew Huang Zhuo once said in a memoir article that Huang Kan "drinks half a catty for every meal."Huang Kan is not picky about wine, rice wine, Moutai, brandy, distilled spirits, ale, beer, etc., he never refuses to come, and he often gets "drunk", "extremely drunk" and "drunk". Huang Kan likes to drink and doesn't know how to drink, but he advises others to drink in moderation.Once Lin Gongduo "arrived from Wenzhou, fell to the ground drunk when he got off the train, hurt his chest, and looked like a wolf's post." Huang Kan thought that "like this drunkenness, it is appropriate to satirize those who advise." Huang Kan said that he is not in good health. If he hadn't learned boxing, his health would be even worse.But he was full of complaints and had no way to vent, so he could only focus on what was in the glass.He had to drink four taels of wine every morning before going to class. He often suffered from coughing in winter, and his hematemesis never got rid of it.He likes to eat crabs, and when the crabs are on the market, he drinks more. Because of the good things in the cup, Huang Kan and several wives had a lot of quarrels.Huang Kan often regrets and introspects about his other hobbies, but he never blames himself for drinking. Instead, he regards his wife's dissuasion as his "pain of gangrene", and the relationship between husband and wife has plummeted.Huang Kan also died of drinking in the end. Before his death, he and his friends climbed the Beiji Pavilion and Jiming Temple, held crabs to admire chrysanthemums, and drank too much, which caused the rupture of gastric blood vessels and vomiting blood.In Wang Dong's eulogy for the first anniversary of Huang Kan's death, he said: "Ji Gang drunk when he was injured, so he died with his own body." Huang Kan loves books like his life.Huang Kan's greatest possession in his life is books.Zhang Taiyan said in his epitaph: "If you have surplus money, you must buy books."Once, Huang Kan talked to his students about his buying books, saying that his wife often blamed him for buying books desperately, and sometimes remitted money to other places to buy them. After the money was sent, he looked forward to the package every day until the books really arrived I opened the package, read it quickly, put the book on the shelf, and never read it again. This is really a waste.Huang Kan replied: "If you want to know how happy I am when I buy a book, it's when I open the package and read it. For example, when we get married, isn't it the happiest time when we are newlyweds?" Since Huang Kan has a large collection of books, how to place these "treasures" and how to pack books when moving often bothers him.Huang Kan's books are all scattered on the shelves, even piles on the desks on the floor.Once, Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou invited him to teach. No matter how hard the school tried to persuade him or how generous the salary was, Huang Kan refused.When others asked him why he didn't go to teach at CUHK, Huang Kan replied flatly: "I have too many books and it's hard to carry, so I didn't go." However, the books that Huang Kan worked so hard to collect were eventually ruined by others. During the "January 28th" Incident, Huang Kan moved his family with his family, packed eight trucks of books in a hurry, and transported them to Caishiji for temporary storage. Unexpectedly, they were stolen by local residents and sold as waste paper in baskets. Huang Kan died at the age of 50.It is said that he is super-spirited because he drinks extremely strong tea, which is almost as black as lacquer. Before work, he must drink wildly and drink it repeatedly.Although the essence is stimulated, it seriously hurts the body.
