Chapter 125: Doing Things
Wang Defu was still very happy on this day, because he felt that spending time with Chen Qingyan and Chen Qingle, the two sisters, felt very beautiful no matter what they did, maybe this is the reason why men like beautiful women.
Through the poem "A Blossoming Tree", the topic between Wang Defu and them naturally shifted to the aspect of poetry, and he revealed to Chen Qingyan that he intends to write a biography of poets, which will not only be beautiful in content, but also the poems in it will become eternal classics.
Of course, Chen Qingyan is looking forward to Wang Defu's magnum opus project, and hopes that he will start writing as soon as possible.
Chen Qingle, on the other hand, listened quietly, seemingly very self-contained, and did not want to disturb the Wenqing dialogue between her sister and Wang Defu, but in fact, her brain was running rapidly......
The troublemaker girl really won't just give up, after she touched Wang Defu's nose of ash here this day, she went back and told the story directly around "A Flowering Tree"!
In her mouth, "A Flowering Tree" is a love poem given to her by Wang Defu, expressing his desire for her, Wang Defu has a deep love for her, but it is a pity that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless, she has no feelings for Wang Defu, so she can only let his heart wither like petals.
Because "A Flowering Tree" is indeed a modern poem that makes people feel very touching, and then it is involved with Wang Defu, a rising star in the literary world who is now in the limelight, so it has spread all over Suzhou in a short period of time!
And Chen Qingle, who was already quite famous in Suzhou No. 1 Girls' High School, her fame soared, and she became the envy of the girls in the whole school!
Not many people question the authenticity of this story, because it is not only Chen Qingle who made up this story, but also her sister Chen Qingyan.
Chen Qingle was going back to school with her sister, and in the process of returning to school, she was coquettish with her sister, and bluntly expressed her displeasure with Wang Defu, she thought that Wang Defu didn't respect her at all, so she had to do something to retaliate against Wang Defu, and her sister also had to help her.
Although Chen Qingyan and Wang Defu are also teachers and friends, in her heart, her sister is always closer than an outsider, and she is not fascinated by Wang Defu's charm, some people may not believe it when she says it, Chen Qingyan has never felt a man when he is so old.
What prompted Chen Qingyan to agree to help Chen Qingle was that Chen Qingle said that there were too many girls in their high school who regarded Wang Defu as their dream lover, which would definitely affect their studies, so it was better to do something to break their illusions!
So as soon as the sisters put it together, they chose to make an article about Wang Defu's modern poem, and they both felt that doing such a "bad thing" had an inexplicable sense of excitement.
Anyway, the two sisters resisted Wang Defu's "beauty", so they would not regard Wang Defu as an unattainable existence, but only as a friend who could make some harmless jokes.
So Chen Qingyan, who was already able to make up stories, coupled with Chen Qingle, who is particularly good at spreading rumors and has the ability to publicize, the love story that they worked together to complete even the details of "A Flowering Tree" was vivid, and it suddenly became popular on campus!
Not many people question the authenticity of the story, probably because they all feel that Chen Qingle does have enough capital to become the existence that Wang Defu can't ask for.
Many interpretations of "A Blossoming Tree" have also spread on campus.
These interpretations are clearly Chen Qingyan's own understanding, but they spread it to further increase the authenticity of the story and make everyone believe in Wang Defu's deep love even more.
The poem consists of three stanzas. The first stanza expresses "I's" deep expectation of "you". "For this/I have begged in front of the Buddha for 500 years/Ask it to let us tie a dusty relationship" is a foolish saying, which is so touching that people are moved.
Can you say it's impossible? Five hundred years is too long, but compared to the goddess on Wushan, five hundred years is too short.
Looking forward to love, what about thousands of years.
It was a beautiful dream, albeit a little sadly beautiful. Here the poet uses exaggerated techniques to preemptively smear the passionate, sincere love so thickly.
In the second stanza of the poem, "I" appears in the form of a tree. The "tree" as an image carries the whole connotation of "me" love. Five hundred years of sincerity finally moved the Buddha, "The Buddha then turned me into a tree," why did the poet turn "me" into a tree? This is where the poet's ingenuity lies.
"I" as a tree "grows on the side of the road you must pass," day and night watching love, unswerving, how passionate and persistent. This kind of feeling is difficult to express without this imagery.
The second stanza of the poem goes on to read: "The sun is full of flowers / Flowers are the hope of my past life." Flowers should also be "cautious" when they bloom, which shows that they are not open at will, but just open for "you", and dedicate "me" and "the most beautiful moment" to "you".
"Blossoms", flowers bloom warmly, precisely because "I" love "you" warmly. "The Expectation of the Past Life" corresponds to the first stanza of the poem, "I have begged for five hundred years", indicating that this kind of passionate love is not a momentary impulse, but a long-standing one, reminiscent of the longevity of love.
The third stanza of the poem writes the whisper of the heart of "I". "When you approach, please be careful / The trembling leaf is the enthusiasm I am waiting for" The slight sound of the "trembling leaf" is the call of love from the bottom of my heart, therefore, it is no longer the leaf that "trembles", but the heart of "my" eagerly looking forward to, but "you" did not stop walking over, and "my" poured out in vain.
Whatever the reason, this ending is cruel and heartbreaking for "me". Since flowers are only open for "you", and "you" are "walking by in disregard," who are flowers proud of?" Fallen to the ground behind you / Friend, that's not petals / That's my withered heart. ”
The floating petals are clearly petals, but they are not petals, which seems to be contradictory, but in fact they are materialized emotions. The flowers float by themselves, and the people are melancholy, which is endlessly evocative.
……
Wang Defu himself didn't know that he habitually quoted poetry to pretend to flirt with his sisters, and he was so confronted by these sisters!
This is obviously because he has swelled again, but not all girls are like Ling Jingsu, because they do have feelings for him, so they are accommodating everywhere, and even the poems he sent, she carefully preserves.
And after "A Flowering Tree" became popular at Suzhou No. 1 Girls' High School, its spread spread to outside the school and other schools without accident.
It was only a matter of time before it reached Ling Jingsu's ears.
