Chapter 265 To Li Xiaolin①

Dearest Kobayashi: I really can't express how much I miss you, your father and your family. Old people have all kinds of diseases, and it is not easy to cure them.The proofs are corrected and sent, the proofreading is really good! Not in Beijing. You can see that "Chinese Writers" is really wrong. Dad has finished sorting out the books. He really should have a good rest and stop fussing.I only told Zhuo Ru and others that after my death, all the books with the upper and lower titles, calligraphy and paintings and letters from children (there are always thousands of them) should be handed over to the Bajin Archives!The rest of the children picked the leftovers and handed them in to the Minyuan library, and my English books were collected early in the Minyuan library during the ten years of turmoil.I won’t write any more. If there is any more autobiography in the future, I will give it to you.

The second sister is busy working hard, youth is so precious, the eldest sister has gone to Guangdong to recruit students, and she can return in ten days.Kiss your aunt Seven, one ①Li Xiaolin, the daughter of the famous writer Ba Jin, is now the deputy editor-in-chief of the magazine.To Comrade Gong Xi Gong Xi: Believe me. (Jiang Guangci book income, thank you!) Knowing that you have visited some places, I am really envious.Recently, my health is not very good, I am too lazy to go out, and I can't go out.The Shanghai Writers' Association is hosted by Ru Zhijuan. It's great. I love their mother and daughter very much. Please send my regards.Good luck!Bing Xin VII and VI to Comrade Wang Anyi Anyi:

Every time you send a book such as "October", the proofs and monthly novels are received without error.After you have collected all the eight manuscripts, I will write the preface for you. It is difficult to write without reading them all. You said that after going to the United States, there were impacts and changes in thinking, can you explain in detail?Can't see it in the works yet.Bing Xin VII, Thirteen "People Should Respect" Preface Members of the China Association for the Promotion of Democracy, most of them are educators.Among them, a large number of teachers have won honorable titles such as special-grade teachers and advanced teachers of "Five Lectures and Four Beauties".This "People Should Be Respected" is a collection of the deeds of these advanced teachers.

From my own life experience, apart from my parents, I have benefited from the teachings of my teachers from childhood to old age in terms of knowledge growth and personality cultivation. To this day, whenever I have emotional fluctuations in life or setbacks in work, I can always get comfort and encouragement from the loving teachings of a certain teacher in my memory!I deeply feel that love is the foundation of education.Love the motherland, love the people, love the future of mankind, the love for all these is the source of the strength of teachers' education.When the teachers are pouring love and painstaking efforts on the land of the motherland, and generally blooming brilliant flowers that promote the talents of the four modernizations, let us all re-read this "People Who Should Be Respected" and offer our heartfelt thanks to the teachers. respect!

Fang Women and Children's Publishing House published in August 1986. ) to Bajin Bajin brother: I am very glad to receive your petite letter.Like you, I have too many errands and many guests, I haven’t written what should be written, and I’m dawdling!Beijing has been extremely hot these days, and I think Shanghai can do the same.Wu Bing went to Lanzhou the day before yesterday for business and it will take 20 days.Wu Qing (she has sent a letter to Xiao Lin, we often miss you) went to Chengde today, for three days, just for fun.Wen Zao (he asked you hello) and I couldn't go anywhere, so we had to blow a fan at home.None of us expected to live so long, and he is still teaching graduate students.I have decided to hand over all my things to the archives, you know.These few words tell you that I miss you and Kobayashi very much!

I went to the hospital for an examination the day before yesterday, and the result was fine.They brought flowers to Mr. Ye from Wu Qing's children. He is still in the hospital for several months. It's hot and there is still air conditioning in the hospital.Bing Xin 7, 22 to Comrade Wang Anyi Anyi: Your long letter of July 16 has been received.I have received all the letters and books you sent, but the book you entrusted your friend in Beijing to send has not yet arrived.Maybe I don't have to read ten chapters in the collection you are going to publish, I can write a preface and read it all, of course it is better, but it will take time.What's the name of that collection?

Your long letters help me understand some issues, but I know more from your works.The preface is just to explain my personal appreciation and understanding of you, and I can write it now. Anyway, the novels you have collected, and unpublished ones, etc. are fine. Beijing has been extremely hot these days, so is Shanghai enough?Say hello to your mother.Bing Xin 7, 22 to Li ① Comrade Li: I got a letter from your "iron buddy" Shu Li yesterday, saying that you have cerebral thrombosis and mild hemiplegia.Let me write to advise you not to be impatient, I will certainly be able to handle this task happily.

After I returned from a visit to Japan in 1980, I suddenly suffered from a cerebral thrombosis and suffered from mild hemiplegia because I was rushing to translate the poem "The Lampburner" written by the President of Malta.I have had no strengths in my life, if I had any, they were good at cooperating with doctors and never pessimistic.Because I have been sick since I was a child ("Send to a Little Reader" is a work while I am sick), vomiting blood, etc., I have resisted it.I vomited blood for decades, and suddenly vomited again in 1958. The last time I was visiting London, I was already eighty years old when I suffered from a cerebral thrombosis.Since then, I have declined all social activities and only rested at home, but I did not give up writing.You are so young, you should take me as a lesson, learn from me, cooperate with doctors, don't be pessimistic, this disease is not too important, just because you have never been sick, impatient, so you are looking for trouble.

Born in Mengjin, Henan Province, he lived in the countryside when he was a child. In 1953, he published the novel "Can't Go That Way". In 1955, he was transferred to the Henan Federation of Literary and Art Circles and began to engage in professional creation.His major works include "The Biography of Li Shuangshuang", "Old Man Meng Guangtai" and "The Story of Plowing Clouds"; the novel "Flowing to the East of the Yellow River"; film and literary scripts "New Biography of Veterans", "The Spirit of the Dragon Horse", "The Wrangler", "The Man under the Mountain" Garland, etc.

Cheer up, I don't believe in masculinity, and the spirit of fighting diseases is not as good as my old lady. I wish you a speedy recovery! Bing Xin 1985, July, 23. About men (4) 5 My cousins ​​have so many Chinese relatives!In addition to cousins, there are many, many cousins.As the saying goes: "One watch is three thousand miles away." Aunts, uncles, aunts; and sons of uncles, uncles, aunts, and aunts, who are older than me are all my cousins; There are many things to write about, but the one I respect the most is Mr. Liu Daokeng (Fang Yuan).He is my mother's cousin, and I don't know how to use "Biao". He should call my mother "Cousin Gu", but he always calls her "Gu" without the word "Biao".According to my mother, they lived in the same hospital since they were young, so they are very affectionate with each other.From the early years of the Republic of China, after we arrived in Beijing, every new year or my parents' birthday, their family would come to congratulate them.He is seventeen years older than me, and I always treat him like an elder, after holding tea and cigarettes and saying hello, I step aside and take his children to play.At that time, he was the editor of "Morning News", and he gave us a copy of "Morning News" as a gift. During the "May 4th" Movement, I was a secretary of the Xiehe Women's University Student Union. I wanted to write some propaganda articles, and the student union asked me to find newspapers and periodicals for publication.Only then did I think of my cousin who was a newspaper editor, and I discussed it with him on the phone, and he asked me to send the article.This short article was published immediately. Although I was very excited, at that time I was determined to study medicine, and writing publicity articles was just to catch up with the task, and I didn't want to continue.My cousin Fang Yuan has always encouraged me to write, and at the same time sent many publications published at that time, such as "New Youth", "New Wave", "Liberation and Reform", etc., for me to read.The manuscripts I sent have never been revised or returned, and sometimes he even requested manuscripts for Shanghai's "Shishi Xinbao".He is like my own brother, caring about everything about me.When I went to the United States in 1923, he also raised a hundred dollars for me as travel expenses—because the scholarship I received did not include travel expenses—but my father had already raised this amount for me.My cousin Fangyuan still insisted that I take it with me in case of emergency, so I had no choice but to take this one with me, but I never used it.In 1926, I obtained a master's degree and applied to teach at my alma mater—Yenching University—and the school paid for my travel expenses.As soon as I returned to Shanghai—my cousin Fang Yuan was working in Shanghai Tongyi Trust Company—I returned the hundred dollars to him.

Cousin Fangyuan is very knowledgeable, can recite poems and write lyrics, and writes well.His mother often praised him for his honest nature.When he was a teenager, his parents passed away one after another, and his younger siblings and even nephews were all supported by him.Since he started writing, he has been communicating with me. When I was in the United States, I got a letter from him once, saying: "I went to Beijing the day before yesterday and saw my aunt. She was deeply concerned about your life-long events and said that you have been too careless. She is very worried about such things. I think you should not let go of the opportunity in the United States, and you must pay more attention to it." The original text is probably these words, I don't remember much.I wrote back and said: "Thank you for your advice, please tell my mother, I 'know'!" When I returned home in 1926, I saw the red clay gold couplets hanging on the wall of the main room, which he gave to my father last year. Sixtieth birthday: There are three pearls, one precious tree, and our family is included. In the early 1950s, he returned to Beijing and became a librarian at the Museum of Culture and History. We met often again. I remember that he often wrote for others, commented on "The Complete Works of Baixiangshan", and gave me a copy.In 1957 he contracted cancer and died in Beijing. There is also a cousin, I have only heard his voice, but I have never seen him, but I will never forget his joke, because the title he gave me is that no matter how hard I work in my life, I will also strive for it. No! I have a cousin—I don’t know which cousin of my mother, who married into the Zheng family in Luxia Town, Fuzhou suburbs—because it was a single family of three generations, her son was very spoiled from birth, and his nickname was "" emperor".His son, of course, is the "Prince". This "Prince" cousin is about seven or eight years older than me.I have never met these two "supreme".In the winter of 1911, I returned to Fuzhou and stayed at my uncle's house overnight.People in Fuzhou do not have the habit of lighting stoves in winter. When the weather is cold, everyone goes to bed early when they have nothing to do.I was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep, when I heard a young man's voice coming in from the outer courtyard with a smile, saying, "Why are the royal relatives so sleepy so early?!" I heard this novel name, and I thought he was very humorous ! To Comrade Wang Anyi on July 25, 1985: What's the name of your novel collection?There are still two articles that have not yet reached my hands, namely "The Difficult Road to Shu" and "My Origin". I have read the others, and I can start writing after reading them all.In fact, I've pretty much figured it out.I'm fine, but my wife has entered the hospital again, but will be discharged soon.in a hurry.Bing Xin 8, 3 joyfully looking forward to the compilation of a group of Fujian writers' albums in this issue of "Children's Literature". It is still a pioneering work in "Children's Literature" to publish the works of writers from a province like this.I find it very interesting.Our 29 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions have their own unique landscapes, figures, flowers, trees, birds and animals.Therefore, the works of writers from various provinces often have a very strong and rich local color and local scenery.This issue is mostly written by Fujian writers.I am from Fujian. Although I lived in Fujian for a short period of time, I have deep feelings for my parents' hometown, and I love reading works by Fujian writers.In this issue, Comrade Guo Feng's four fairy tale prose poems are written very wonderfully and wittily.In the article "The Frog's Journey", what I walked through was the big banyan tree in Fujian - Fuzhou City was originally called the Banyan City. The Maltose Man is someone I know well.I like the colorful animals squeezed out of his hands the most.And the word "Fan Po" is Hokkien dialect, referring to foreign women, which I have never heard in the north. "Puppet Show" has only been seen in Fuzhou, and it is much more exciting than the puppet shows in the north!For example, Huoyanshan can't be done on the puppet theater in the north. "Dragon Eye Garden" This article is unique to Fujian.It is said that Sichuan and Guangdong also have longan, but they are not as sweet as the longan in Fuzhou! Comrade Shu Ting is a very famous poet.In this issue, she also writes a novel.It is also about things in southern Fujian: under the kapok tree, one old and one young show their friendship through life and death through their hobby of airplane models. This "Flying Soul" is very touching. I have seen the octopus and silver eel in Comrade Chen Zhongyi's poem "Octopus Wants Everything It Sees", but I didn't know that there is such a species of electric eel in the world, maybe it is also unique to Fujian?Comrade Liu Xijie's poem "Red Carp and Water Lily" is also very interesting for children. "Beautiful Footprints" written by Comrade Chen Huiying vividly and sincerely describes several short stories of Mr. Lu Xun when he was teaching at Xiamen University.Comrade Zhou Yunshi's novel "The Route Painted in Red" is a relatively rare theme in children's literature, reflecting the desire of children on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to be reunited as soon as possible.The fairy tale "The King and the Wolf" written by Comrade Pei Shenqin is also quite interesting and philosophical.These works are worth reading. I am looking forward to the albums from other provinces with great hope, so that I can increase my knowledge of all parts of the motherland. On August 6, 1985, to Comrade Xiao Feng① Comrade Xiao Feng: I believe that my former residence at No. 14 Zhongjianzi Lane is Jintieshi Alley, not far from the south entrance and west of the road.The compound is probably full of houses. In 1944, I wrote four "Resend to Young Readers" in Sichuan in response to the appointment of "Ta Kung Pao", but I forgot about it myself (comrade Zhuo Ru found it in Chongqing News this time).Therefore, in 1958, he wrote "Re-send".As for how many articles there are in "Three Letters to Little Readers", it was published in "Children's Times" published by the Shanghai Children's Welfare Association. I have forgotten how many articles there are, and they may have books to look up.in a hurry.Bing Xin 8, 8 ① Xiao Feng, professor of Beijing Broadcasting Institute.To Ba Jin Laoba: I haven't written to you for a long time, how are you? Wen Zao was ill and had been in the Beijing Hospital for more than two weeks. He had a cerebral embolism and was unconscious. The children and special nurses were caring for him.I'm going to wait until he's sober, and the kids say he's making progress.I'm restless, I don't read many books, I hope you take care, kiss Xiaolin!Big Sister Eighth, First Five, to the Editorial Committee ①Comrade Comrade Editorial Committee: letter income.Xie Bingji is my third brother Xie Weiji, now in Lanzhou. My eldest brother Xie Weihan (Bing Zhong) is deceased, and my second brother Xie Weijie (Uncle Bing) (chief engineer of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, in Beijing) all came with my Bing Xin, you guessed it right.Haste, I wish the pen healthy.Bing Xin 8, 24 ① The editorial board of the series of materials on the history of modern Chinese literature.The teachers who wrote the inscription for "Chinese Newspaper" are the most respectable people. They have worked hard for the future of the motherland and mankind, and for making you qualified successors of the four modernizations of the motherland!I hope you live up to their upbringing.In response to the instruction of "Chinese Newspaper", Bing Xin, I pay attention to looking for An Yi's works. An Yi wrote in a letter saying, "Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House is going to publish a collection of short stories for me. This is my sixth collection. I feel that this This collection has an extraordinary meaning to me...these things were all written after I returned from the United States in early 1984. Thoughts and feelings, world outlook, outlook on life, outlook on art, etc. have all undergone great shocks and changes... I very, very hope that you can write a preface for me, really, very much. " She gave me the first five collections of An Yi, and I read them, but each one is not in order, and some only have epilogues and the like.In this, I am similar to her, and my collections have never been ashamed to ask for a preface.This time she asked me to write a preface to her "very meaningful" collection, and I am delighted and honored! I paid attention to An Yi's works, starting with her award-winning article.I have many relatives and friends living in Shanghai. I know people who have lived in Shanghai for a long time. They are "passionately in love" with Shanghai. Although there are too few houses in Shanghai, there are too many people.Their children are always reluctant to leave Shanghai, and would rather go to ordinary technical secondary schools than go to other places to go to university.I think An Yi's observations and descriptions of Shanghainese are very profound and delicate, which can be described as "penetrating".In addition, I also like one article, "Da Zai Zhao Ziqian". I think many scholars around me can be classified into the category of "Da Zai". An Yi's "Few Works" is like "Rain, Rustle", which is a beautiful and innocent song. Such a young and beautiful song can be written by ordinary young female writers.On the contrary, those works after she "lost" "beauty" and her soul "requires to be exposed and confides" are very real, simple, delicate and profound!She saw "beautiful flashes in a messy life... There are many dark and ugly things in life, but good things still exist. I always believe so, and I always look at life with this mood" , I appreciate her writing attitude very much! An Yi has always lived in Shanghai. At the age of sixteen, he became an "educated youth" who went to the countryside to go to the mountains. When he arrived in Suxian County, Anhui Province, it was a very poor place. (I remember the American female writer Pearl Buck once told me that the novel Great Earth, which made her famous, was set in Su County, Anhui.) Everything about Shanghai and Anhui described by An Yi was unfamiliar to me. or not experienced.But I could tell she opened her mind and eyes wide to observe, writing deeply and sincerely about what she saw.She herself said that "sincerity is more important than everything else. If you lose your sincerity, you will not be able to be a writer, a wife, or a person." sentence.From my observations in my life, not every writer puts the sincerity of being a writer on the same footing as the sincerity of being a wife (or husband) or a person! According to An Yi, the ten novels in this collection were all written after she went to the United States in 1984 and suffered shocks and changes. What are the shocks and changes?In her reply to Ms. Diana Borley, a Canadian film producer, she said that she hoped that after the Chinese people become rich, "still retain all the beautiful things in traditional folk customs, unlike today's Western society There is a barrier between each other” (see “One Night Talk of Women Writers” by China Women’s Daily, July 10, 1985). An Yi herself said, "Among these novels, they are more mature."This, I feel the same way.The background of the novel is placed in the "Hometown of Benevolence and Righteousness" In Xiaobaozhuang, each character, such as Bao Wuye, Laozha and couples, Xiaocui and Wenhuazi, Shilai and Second Aunt, all stood up from the paper.When I read the passage where the cute little hero Laozha died, my uncontrollable tears fell onto the paper! The remaining nine articles: For example, "Da Liu Zhuang" is a sister article, but it also writes about a group of young people in the city. "My Origin" is the recorder's "root-seeking" all the process. "The Difficult Road to Shu" came to me in the end. It is about a pair of lovers. The man seems to be a doctor, and the woman is a nurse. They take a boat from Shanghai to Chongqing in the fog and say they want to see the Three Gorges. In the current life, in the end the man still thought of his mother and wanted to go back to Shanghai, but the woman disappeared in the joy of traveling in Chongqing. "Adventure to the Yellow Dragon Cave" is about a group of boys and girls who foolishly imagined going to the Huanglong Cave in Hangzhou as they did during the Dalian period, but were stopped by the People's Liberation Army, and finally went to their aunt's house. The other four short stories, "The Spring and Autumn Period of the Madao Factory", are an aspect of the experience of the educated youth, and describe the conflicts caused by industrial factors in the countryside. "Between Everyone" is a story between a respectful and dedicated teacher Zhang and a naughty boy Wang Qiangxin, interspersed with a grandfather of Wang Qiangxin who "protects the cub". I think the development of the plot is reasonable, but the result Unexpectedly. "One Thousand and One Lanes" is about two good people who guard the public telephone, Uncle Wang and Amao Niang. They have different views on what constitutes due diligence, and they often have conflicts and frictions.But when Amao Niang fell ill, Uncle Wang sent her malted milk. "Speaking of Lao Bing" describes an old accountant in a magazine. He follows the rules, is thrifty and even stingy.He worked so hard to save 2,000 yuan of wages for 28 years, put them in an iron box, and hid them in the wall, but they were roasted to ashes by the stove next door every year, and so on. An Yi's way of writing is very wide, everything around her can be written when she sees it.She is still young, her life is still very long, and she will deeply experience new joys and sorrows!She said: "To make my life, my life, my work, my joys and sorrows, my me, bigger, bigger, bigger." He also admitted, "My life joins my novels, and my novels join my life." That's right, An Yi, let's keep writing like this!In this way, "sincerity" is written, and "sincerity" is the most powerful driving force for writing. (This article was originally published in "Literary News" on October 5, 1985.) I hope that teachers will be honored three hundred and sixty-five days a year. We have a tradition of honoring teachers for thousands of years in China.When I was in school when I was a child, my parents took me to visit my teacher, and saw a red note on the wall, which said "Heaven, Earth, Monarch, Parent, Teacher", and listed Teacher and Heaven, Earth, Monarch, and Parent together. I have been taught and taken care of by many teachers in my life, both Chinese and foreign.I was a teacher, and now, my wife and my two daughters are teachers. In my opinion, being a teacher is hard work, but also very happy. The teacher can get a lot of rewards from the achievements of the students and the relationship between the students and the teacher.I don't have many things for my students, but I get a lot of happiness. During the ten years of turmoil, the atmosphere of respecting teachers was destroyed.Now the activity of respecting teachers is advocated. I heard that some students want to buy gifts for teachers, which is unnecessary.I think the best gift for students to respect their teachers is to show their own good academic performance, which is better than anything else. This is what I hoped when I was a teacher. Teachers should work hard to make themselves worthy of respect. Now some young teachers do not feel at ease at work, and some students in normal colleges do not want to be teachers. There are many reasons for this.Teachers' social status is not high, and their salaries are also low. This is one of the reasons.Now, our country is gradually solving this problem.Another reason is that many young teachers do not yet understand students and have not felt the joy of being a teacher.I have taught books for ten years, teaching first-year Chinese, as well as senior-level writing and drama. I was only twenty-six years old at that time, and my classmates in the first grade were seventeen or eighteen years old. The age gap was not too big.To build relationships with your classmates and to teach them well, you must understand every classmate.When I teach first grade students, the first composition is to ask them to write their autobiography, from their articles, from their faces, to know everything about their past, many things they did, and everyone's reflection on the lectures. Teacher's Day is here. This is the first Teacher's Day in our new China. I am very happy that the people have finally awakened and know the need to respect teachers.I hope that people all over the country will respect teachers, not only students can respect teachers, I hope that teachers will not only be respected on Teacher’s Day, but will be respected for 365 days a year, and this year’s Teacher’s Day will be respected every day. The beginning of the teacher, everyone respects the teacher. To Comrade Zang Kejia Kejia: Thank you very much for your concern!Wen Zao was admitted to the hospital on July 27 due to a heart attack. Since August 3, she has been in a coma. Every day, three couples with children take turns to guard her. In addition, she is under intensive care.When people get old, they always have to think about the things behind them. I think this is also a natural law.I'll just do what he cares about.You don't get too busy with errands, and don't feel too sad about old friends, just rest.Best wishes to Bing Xin Jiu and Jiu to Comrade Zhou Dabao Dabao: Thank you for your letter. Wen Zao was admitted to the hospital on July 27, and has been in a coma since August 3. However, due to the doctor's best efforts to rescue him, he is still stable for the time being. Every day, three couples of our children (Wu Qing returned to China the year before last), And my nephew and daughter, take turns guarding. I have read his will (written earlier), and according to the instructions, he donated all of his savings of 30,000 yuan to the Research Department of the Institute for Nationalities as a postgraduate scholarship, which has been handed over.I'm fine, thank you.Please take care of yourselves both of you! !Bing Xin nine and eighteen like to read Yuan Ying's "Autumn Water" collection Yuan Ying sent me his new prose collection "Autumn Water", and I couldn't put it down once I opened it! Dozens of short stories about "articles are like brocade and air like rainbow", some are about nostalgia for people, some are about climbing mountains and facing water, some are lyrical and chanting things, some are about history and literature, all of them are written very realistically and naturally.The most valuable thing is that in the real nature, we can also see the traces of the author's "breaking thousands of books".In Yuan Ying's prose, there are often quotes, poems, and words from the ancients. The prose itself is also sonorous in tone, which has the meaning of prose poetry.This is what young prose writers lack the most. They have read too little of their country's ancient poetry, and cannot naturally write sentences with tones. Of course, prose must first have true feelings, but it also needs to be based on love and prose. Even though illiterate and uneducated people have true feelings, they can't write like Han Yu's "Journal of the Twelve Langs" or Su Shi's "Ode to the Red Cliff" .People who are familiar with ancient prose, poems, and Ci can "write like a god" when they write articles, and they can be recited in a coordinated manner.Now replace the flat tones with boldface and italics to replace the flat tones. Here are a few examples in "Autumn Water": For example, in "The Indus Tree on the South Road" (the fifth last line on page 15), "people go to the empty building, and the phoenix tree is silent"; for example, in "Revelation of Returning Hall" (the first sentence of the third paragraph on page 119), "the vicissitudes of life, Middle-aged sorrow and music"; in "White Songs" (page 169, line 4), "the bright moon sinks westward, and the music ends and people disperse"; such as "A piece of paper in hand" in "Reading Changshu Laihong" (page 176, line 3) , Looking at the south of the Yangtze River" and so on, are extremely meaningful and vivid sentences. I hope that all my young friends will come to enjoy this collection of essays that can be used for reference. On September 23, 1985, to Ba Jin, Ba Jin’s younger brother: I have read your letter to Wu Qing.Kobayashi wrote letters and made long-distance calls. I am really grateful!I can think about it!He didn’t die during the Anti-Rightist Period, he didn’t die during the ten-year turmoil, he had been in a coma for three weeks when he died, and he didn’t show any pain. He was just one step ahead of me. Eighty-four years old is not short-lived. I am very satisfied. of.Everyone sent letters and telegrams to persuade me to mourn.We used to be "simplified" in everything, but after the Xinhua News Agency issued a message, it became "complex" again.I'm fine, I haven't shed a single tear in front of others, and my heart is at peace, so don't worry.Thank you friends in Shanghai.I can't go away for a while, someone is coming to Beijing, please come and sit down.Kiss Kobayashi.Eldest sister to Zhao Qingge Qingge on October 4th: Both letters are received, you gave me a birthday celebration film, very good, thank you!At that time, because he was busy with Wenzao's illness, he recovered sooner or later.Wen Zao had been ill for nearly two months and died peacefully.Originally, everything was "simplified", but unexpectedly, Xinhua News Agency issued a message, and it became "complex". Over the past few days, I have received many letters and telegrams from home and abroad.I really think about it, he didn't die in the anti-rightist and "Gang of Four" era, but died today, much better than Lao She, Pan Guangdan...etc friends!I am very satisfied, and my health is also good. I can't even imagine it, so don't worry. Hasty reply.Mr. Jin Yuelin in Bing Xin's Ten, July, and Eighth Five memories Although my wife and many of our friends are very familiar with Mr. Jin Yuelin, I don't have many opportunities to get in touch with him. All I can remember is one or two small incidents during the short period of time when I participated in the friendship mission to Europe with him in 1958, which made me realize that my friends appreciated his character. He has a great sense of humor!People with a sense of humor, especially those who can find humorous information in themselves, are always cheerful, optimistic and open-minded, making people approachable.I remember one time he said to me with a smile: "I am really old, my memory is so bad that I forget myself! Once I went out to visit friends, and when I rang the bell at the door, the female worker came out to answer the door. Ask me 'your surname'. I suddenly forgot my 'your surname', and I said, 'please wait a moment, I will ask my driver comrade my 'your surname'. The female worker was speechless for a long time with her mouth open !" During this trip, one day we had breakfast together in the restaurant downstairs of the hotel. (Because we are older, we usually get up earlier than other group members, and we always eat first-come, first-served.) After the meal, the waiter came over and asked us to sign the room number on the bill. After Mr. Jin signed, the waiter took After getting the bill and leaving, I hurriedly called her back and said, "I haven't written down my room number yet!" Mr. Jin looked at me and smiled, and said, "You are so sensitive."At that time, the younger members of our group who were dining at the table on the left did not understand what he meant by "sensitive"! Also during this visit, in London, England, we received phone calls from Chen Xiying and Ling Shuhua, who lived in England, inviting us to their home for dinner.Mr. Jin and Chen Xiying are old friends. Ling Shuhua and I are classmates of Yanda University. We liked each other very much.It's a pity that Mr. Jin was talking upstairs with Chen Xiying that day, but I was helping Ling Shuhua cook in the basement.I can't remember anything about the conversation at the dinner table afterwards. Speaking of which, it was nearly thirty years ago. In the past twenty years, I rarely saw Mr. Jin.Writing these, I seem to see a white-haired scholar standing in front of me under the brim of a green peaked cap, smiling at me!On October 21, 1985, before the May 4th Movement, as a student in the pre-science department of a university, I devoted myself to studying mathematics, physics, and chemistry.But my active mood often makes my study life break out of the barriers of science.Among the poems of the Qing Dynasty that my little uncle Mr. Yang Ziyu bought for me, there are several books that I prefer, such as "Gong Ding'an Poetry Collection", Huang Zhongze's "Liangdangxuan Collection" and Nalan Xingde's "Drinking Water" and "Side Hat". I especially love to read Gong Dingan's poems. He has the most Qijue poems. There are more than 300 poems in "Jihai Miscellaneous Poems".For a student who reads boring science textbooks day and night, it is an excellent word game to change his mind.Although I didn't personally understand the soul-stirring words and sentences in the poem at the time, when I read them together, not only the tone is smooth, but also the rhyme is consistent. Some sentences, I think, are couplets made by nature, such as: How can I send this life away? Another example: When Cairen was old, he went to escape Zen and later saw many of his sentences, like a hundred or ten colorful building blocks, which can be built into exquisite pavilions with seven treasures.Such as: Qi Nai’s previous feelings, why do you feel that you are full of grievances, and your thoughts are rushing to the side of the world. It's been lonely for a long time and Mo Kongshan is listening to the rain. The flowers and shadows in the four chambers are angry with the tide. There are also some scented ones, such as: red like lovesickness and green like sorrow. He Fuyu Emei In his old age, the golden chamber was like a search. I smoked and bathed three times. If I can replace the word "I" with the word "Ru", I can give this song "Ji Gong" to anyone in the south that I admire. For female writers, it is a pity that the original text contains the word "I", so it has to be "shelved". I don't know where to start writing the text I want to write.When I woke up in the middle of the night, I suddenly recalled the "Ji Gong" of my teenage years. I only remembered these few songs. I wrote Yibo old readers with a smile!In the early morning of October 31, 1985, I sincerely thank Wen Zao for leaving me for a full month and a half.For the past one and a half months, I have spent it amidst the sound of condolences around me!Not only did friends and relatives come to express condolences to me almost every day, but also because of the Xinhua News Agency’s news of Wen Zao’s death, I received more than 170 telegrams and letters of condolence from home and abroad.The names of some generators or senders are unfamiliar or even unknown. I was only in the mood to read the pile of letters and telegrams from the beginning yesterday. I seemed to suddenly realize that he still has so many colleagues, so many friends, and so many students; so we still have so much understanding, sympathy, and care. our people!I couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude. Most of the telegrams are short: Condolences to his death, please let me mourn.And from the more than 100 letters of condolence with a large number of words, I saw Wu Wenzao in the eyes of his friends and students—his life, his personality, his experiences...he wrote about the life he lived with me. Fifty-six years of Wu Wenzao! I can only extract a few of these many letters: He has made great contributions and cultivated many successors who have become the founders and masters of this subject in our country.His death is indeed a great loss to our country's academic community. ——Comrade Yang Gan Wenzao and I have been classmates at Tsinghua University for many years. Although he is one level above me, we are brothers and sisters.He was one of the pioneers of sociology in our country.After the founding of New China, sociology was neglected for a long time, and it has not been respected until today.Just when he was needed, he died suddenly.The withering of a philosopher is a great loss to the party and the country...——Zhou Peiyuan read the works of literary masters, benefited a lot, and left an indelible impression.Teacher Wen Zao is knowledgeable, rigorous in his studies, and tireless in teaching students, setting an example for us.Wen Zaoshi has always attached great importance to the cultivation of sociological talents, and has made outstanding contributions to this end. These are worthy of our eternal commemoration and learning...——Yuan Fang, Quan Weitian and other six people will forget.我们虽身在国外，也常常通过“美中人民友好协会”，为祖国谋幸福，为祖国工作，以期不负他老人家的教诲……——苏厚彬不忘。今后我将以自己的实际工作，来报答吴老的谆谆教诲……——宋维真藻师是世界知名的学者。藻师为人耿直，一生诲人不倦，我追随师侧，时间不多，但对我一生的学习和工作，起了不可估量的楷模作用。 我常向藻师汇报学习和工作情况，他老人家无论多忙，身体又不太好，总是亲自给我回信，一次是在唐山大地震波及北京时坐在院子里小凳上写的；一次是在眼力差、写字手抖的时候写的。 藻师对于晚辈也毫不疏忽……——李镇一向是景仰的，同时对文藻先生一九五七年的错划右派，也一直愤愤不平的。文藻先生遗愿不举行追悼会和遗体告别仪式，使我没有表示哀思的机会……——千家驹颠沛，而报国之心不减，是我们后辈的楷模……——袁鹰是天翻地覆的五十四年。你们给我的教导是：爱祖国、爱人民。在这半个多世纪以来，你和藻师就是为祖国的现代化而努力，我也在实践你们的教导……海外有不少关于藻师生平的报道我正在搜集……世界在变，每人都在变化中扮演一个角色，藻师的角色演完了，无论从什么角度看，他都是一位伟大的爱国者，一位终身致力于祖国现代化的学者……我很快就要回国了，如有可能我想为藻师编一本文集……——李有义不必再多抄了，我将遵照一位小朋友要求我的话，写点东西。她说：“我希望吴伯伯能在您笔下重新得到生命！”１９８５年１１月７日大雾之晨致巴金巴金老弟： 昨天下午吴泰昌急递来你送的上海法国面包，非常之新鲜，第三代人馋得了不得，先打开吃了几块，后来第二代人（吴青她们）又吃了几块，我只好请人收起，不让她们再去闹，我是今天早餐时才吃的，可惜的是北京什么都没有。所谓之“宫廷糕点”者，真不知当年那些皇帝以及王公贵人，如何下咽！听说你还好，茹志鹃来看我，要我去上海，我何尝不想去和你们谈谈，只是我行动不便，旅行更要麻烦许多人。人老了，真没意思，家人朋友一个一个地离开你，自己也不知道还能做什么有益于人们的事。我这人真是眼高手低，觉得现在有些很好的作家，写得越来越低级，越来越草率，天天高谈“社会效果”，笔下却不是那回事，是一份好月刊，还要好好“把”一下“关”。 我常常想你和小林夫妇和端端，到底不是住在一个城市，通个电话也费事！昨天正在重读《探索与回忆》，恰好吴泰昌就来了，吴青笑说“他头发也长了，一身衣着，大有港澳华人意味”。纸已尽，不讲笑话了。祝你平安，亲小林一口。大姐十一月八日（此信系舒乙同志征集。）
