Prose by Su Qing 苏青 2999Words 2018-03-18
On the beauty of life There are two reasons for why these four words are often linked together: first, if the beauty is not life-threatening, it is often unknown whether it is beauty or not, so there is no one to talk about it; second, If the unlucky person is not a confidante, the fact of his unlucky life is considered normal, and there is nothing to talk about. This is the origin of the unlucky face. There are so many beauties in the world, even on the Xiafei Road tram, I can often find neat and good-looking girls.Their eyes are black, and when they look back and smile, they reveal two rows of thin and white teeth.I thought, this is really beautiful. If there is a noble prince in the same car who falls in love with her, the girl's reputation will immediately spread throughout Shanghai, China, and even the whole world.It's a pity that noble princes will never come to take the tram with us, not even brave warriors, rich and powerful officials and gentry, what a rare chance for them to become famous, if there is, it is only for romantic poets.

We must know that a good-looking woman grew up in an ordinary family and lived an ordinary life all her life, so she will never become famous, and no one will ever print black letters on white paper and praise her as a "beauty".It must be by chance that she fell in love with a man of status, and this man snatched her and formed a part of his life, so the peonies and green leaves complement each other. She became famous because of him, and he also became famous because of him. And stories about her spread.A beauty is not promoted by an emperor, a general, a hero, or a talented person. It is said that she is so beautiful that not many people can know her.

For example, Xishi grew up in Yiluo Village and washed yarn every day. Although several shepherd boys, woodcutters, fishermen and others ate her tofu, could her reputation spread to villages dozens of miles away?Even if she was raped by a waterman one day, and the government mobilizes the government, at most people in a town will know, and people in a city will know enough, and there will be a name full of public servants, which will be passed down for generations, causing poets and poets to sing endlessly. Woolen cloth?This is also her chance, she deserves to become famous, one day when she was washing clothes, she happened to be caught by Fan Da who was on a mission to find a beautiful woman, so she offered it to Doctor Fan's mansion, and then presented it to the throne of Yue In the past, the three offerings were more than Fuchai's palace.So her "beautiful face" became famous, and her fate was inevitable.

Indeed, in the past, the royal palace was the birthplace of confidante.A young girl who is as beautiful as a flower and jade enters the palace, either she will not have the opportunity to see a man and live in a vacant room until she grows old, or the opportunity will be played by the arrogant, rude, vulgar and vicious so-called emperor.That guy has some power, some power, some money, some minions, and rituals, and all these treasures are used as amulets for him. Once a beauty is in his hands, he will never want to be respected and loved by him. On the contrary, he All he knew was to ravage her, and she had no choice but to endure the ravages.He may be old, licentious, debilitated, sick, of course he has a bad temper, has no literary or military talents, and his appearance is hard to hope that he will be upright and beautiful, but you have to bear it and be grateful He gave you the royal rain and dew, if you don't bear it or appreciate it, it's a big treason!When I read the two poems in the middle of the poem "Cheng Huan Chuan Banquet has no leisure, Chun Cong spring outing night special night", I always feel that Yuhuan is too bitter, it is better to go to sleep as soon as possible and get a permanent rest.The emperor is like this, and the dignitaries under him are not much different, so it is probably very difficult for beauties to marry rich men. Many beauties have no offspring, probably because their men have lost their reproductive ability due to excessive prostitution. There are reliable contraceptive methods also.

An unsatisfactory marriage is a terrible thing. An ideal marriage should be equal in talent and appearance.The so-called equal talent and appearance does not only mean that men have talents and women have good looks. I mean that the talents of men and women are equal, and the appearance of men and women are also equal.If both men and women have equal talents, they will be happy spiritually, and if both men and women have proper appearance, they will be physically satisfied. This is the most perfect way to take care of both the soul and self.And let’s make it clear that the so-called talent and appearance here are also in a broad sense. Talent includes all ideology, learning, hobbies, and hobbies, not just poetry and painting. Appearance also includes age, health, cleanliness, and It's not just about one face.

In addition, there is something more important, which is the emphasis on morality.In a marriage relationship, if one party is immoral, it may be difficult to lead to happiness even if the talent and appearance are equal.As far as men with status generally want to use their superior power to hunt for women's bodies, or generally good-looking women want to use their beauty to hunt for men's money, their motives are despicable, and their moral concepts have completely disappeared. What about true love happiness? It's a pity that many women can't see this, which is another reason for the unlucky life of a beauty.Because beauty is often associated with youth, it is also true that young women are often inexperienced and lacking in knowledge.Since there is a lack of knowledge and experience, it is easy to be deceived, and it is too late to regret.Beauty and thinking are often inversely proportional. People who don't know how to think, eat, sleep, run and dance, and they tend to look young and good-looking.And most men praise her for being good-looking more than mentioning her ignorance, and sometimes say that ignorance can make her more charming and cute.In fact, this sentence has hurt many women, so they only want to be charming and naive, and dare not use their brains too much. As a result, after they become beautiful, bad lives are inevitable. This is a mistake that beauties cannot think about.

A beautiful woman can't think, refuses to learn, her mind becomes narrow-minded, and her mind becomes filthy.I don't want to work hard, I just hope that there will be a ready-made rich man to promote her, so she is jealous when she sees kings, ministers, heroes, and talents. You can be worth a hundred times, proud!There are more than enough peers every day, so you compete, and I compete, everyone robs the beloved, one person is proud, and everyone is sad, and the stories of beautiful women and their lives are endless.This is really cheap. Man, choose the best of the best, copy less, go from one to the other, and live happily until death.Sometimes there are three wives and four concubines, and they can collect everything.Although monogamy is prevalent now, there are still too many beautiful women who want to marry ministers and managers. It is the most common thing for a wealthy and powerful man to marry a young and beautiful woman, but it is also the most dangerous thing.Most of the rich and powerful men are treacherous and cunning, while many young and beautiful women are ignorant and ignorant.This girl has more chances of bad luck.

As for the fact that if the fate-keeper is not a confidante, no one mentions it, or no one sympathizes with it, this makes me quite angry.Maybe I'm just such a mediocre person, I only know how to admire unknown heroes, and I also sympathize with another group of women who are not beautiful but have a hard life, and are even more miserable than the beautiful but hard-fated women.For example, let’s talk about Tianbao’s legacy. Concubine Yang Guifei died. Many people sympathized with her and wrote poems, operas, and articles for her, because she was so beautiful.In fact, she was lustful and extravagant during her lifetime, and after her death, the Supreme Emperor still missed her. It is vanity enough for alchemists to seek her ghost. Compared with Concubine Mei, who has no grooming in Changmen, she is much happier. ?However, Concubine Mei is also quite beautiful, and she shines in all directions, so some people shed tears of sympathy for her loss of favor. Compared with the unlucky empress and white-headed palace ladies, those who are not beauties In normal times, the women have no one to love them, and they are given a handful of pearls to comfort them in their loneliness. In times of chaos, there is no one to protect them. When the dead die, all that is left is to continue to live the desolate years until they die of old age. Isn’t that even worse?

To be honest, historians are often the most snobbish, criticizing women's rights and wrongs always follow their beauty.When a beautiful woman becomes someone else's concubine, she feels that she should be pitiful if she lives alone. Like Feng Xiaoqi, if she lives amphibiously, she should be blessed.But if the eldest wife in this family is born beautiful, but the younger wife is not as good as her, then the pity or blessing should be shifted to them again, don't all unbeautiful women deserve their fates, and only women who are ugly are worth talking about, my lord Book special book?

Dramatists use this principle, so the protagonists of tragedies always choose beautiful and charming women, so that they can deceive the sympathy of the audience and make them cry a lot.For example, if the plot is that a man abandons his wife and finds another lover, and the wife commits suicide, the actor who played the dead wife should be much more beautiful than the actor who plays the clean man.That's why after she committed suicide, the audience sighed and said, "How pitiful! You're such a beautiful woman." If the actor playing the wife is too ugly, the psychology of the audience will change, and the soft-tongued people may say: "If this yellow-faced woman were to change me, she would not want it. She would be fine if she died." At that time, the play was no longer a tragedy, but a tragicomedy. The protagonist was the lover. The hero has a lover and has become a family member.

The power of beauty!It's no wonder that thousands of women are willing to risk their lives in order to gain a good reputation as a confidante, and when the confidante grows old, they regret it again.Men also have beauty and ugliness, but because they have little to do with misfortune and fortune, their pursuit of beauty is far less important than that of women.For the sake of beauty, a woman sacrifices everything, but in the end it is always like fishing for a moon in water, clearly holding it, but it flows out of her hand.Time is like flowing water, and the beauty of appearance is like the shadow of the moon in the water. Not to mention that any woman can't hold it firmly, even if the real moon is in the hand, it is just a shadow in the hand!As for the real moon, it is like the beauty of a person's personality and inner beauty. If it can be made bright, it will emit permanent brilliance.A woman with a beautiful face does not necessarily have a bad life. A woman with a beautiful face is ignorant, just like fishing for a moon in the water, she will fall into the water at any time, and suffer a catastrophe.
