Chapter XXIII: The Death of a Martha Writer
Xianji Town, a magical village, a good place with good mountains and rivers, a beautiful environment on the clear clouds and cranes, and a unique atmosphere under the winding paths have given birth to many ordinary good people in this village.
Of course, the pole of things is bound to be the opposite, otherwise the pole will also come, there are many good people who are bred, and the huge fairy town will occasionally appear a few strange things.
For example, in the village, the writer of the University of Ma with the highest sense of happiness, the word strange is very suitable for him.
Let's start with his odds.
As a sign of respect for him, we removed his name and called him by his nickname.
Literature is always poor, and this is not covered.
The poverty level in the village is second only to the existence of the poor second child who lent money to his son to marry his daughter-in-law everywhere in Xianji Town.
Happiness is often the opposite of rich and poor, just like the life of the friendly neighbor of the Celestial Empire, as long as the brainwashing is done in place, the poorer it is, the better it is to be satisfied.
It is estimated that the writers of the University of Martha often brainwash themselves in this way.
In fact, living according to the way of life handed down by the ancestors of the Ma family, the Ma Da literary family can become the leader of the village, and there will be good living conditions.
However, it is the providence of God that is easy to fool people, which is destined to make the Martha writer have an extraordinary life trend since he was born.
The University of Malthea was once a famous writer.
......
In those years, he often repeated that his ancestors were from Fengtian, and he was born from a famous family in Fengtian, and he was a scholarly family for generations, and many great writers came out.
Others thought he was boasting.
"Northeast Ma family, haven't you heard of it?" the Ma University writer always sneered at rhetorical questions.
In fact, many people don't believe some of what he said, after all, Homo sapiens must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts.
Everyone has the impression that the Northeast Ma family should not be engaged in literature, but seeing him so excited, no one is embarrassed to refute him.
......
However, this does not detract from his proud achievements since childhood.
At the age of three, he learned literature, at the age of six, he could poetry, when other children were still peeing and mud, he had begun to splash ink, and when children of the same age were still discussing what brand of diapers to wear, the literary scholars of the University of Malaysia began to mix in the local cultural circle and became a well-known literary and historical prodigy.
It stands to reason that even if you use this style to engage in pyramid schemes, you can make a lot of money, but unfortunately it still turned into a broken household by mistake.
He is not like Wang Anshi's wound Zhongyong, who made his father cheat the baby, and was used since he was a child, and since then he has become a money-making tool.
On the contrary, the family of the Martha writer has always warned him to study hard and grow up to be a person who contributes to the people and benefits the society.
His character is also excellent, every festival, will help the neighbors to write couplets, and even the red and white ceremonies do not charge any fees for the owner of the family to write accounts, his writing has never been stingy in the streets and alleys of the entire fairy town.
Can you understand how well-known a person can be? Even if you put a test, you have to look at it.
It is simply a monopoly on the survey of all buildings within a radius of 500 meters.
At the height of their fame, several nearby towns would use the Martha writers as a flaunt to educate their children to take the Martha writers as role models.
Breaking ground and demolishing houses are all must-invite characters.
......
However, often the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, and the Martha writer, who should have gained both fame and fortune, did not escape the fate of everyone in the end.
His fame and good fortune lasted until others reached middle age.
His turning point was in a very small event, when spring came, and his only daughter-in-law ran away with his little baby, and was never heard from since.
When the Martha writer told everyone about this tragic experience, his own eyes were not red, he did not regret it at all, and even wanted to laugh.
I guess that's a wry smile on the corner of my mouth.
But others only listened to it as a joke, and their faces did not show due pity.
Here's how it happened:
"The surname is Ma! If you don't do your job, I won't live with you!" said the daughter-in-law of a writer at the University of Martha, pointing to a pile of scrap paper full of words, and shouted loudly, most of the reason why a woman and her husband are anxious is because the family has no money to spend.
I think it's a bunch of manuscripts, and if it doesn't get published, it's better to play with waste paper.
"You give me another year, and I promise you to see the day I break out of my cocoon and become a butterfly. The Martha writer put down the posture of a writer, and replied humbly and humbly, most of the reason why a man said soft words at this time was because he really couldn't help it.
"You butterflies are all rotting in cocoons! Tell me yourself, how many years have I given you, how old are our children! Tell me, are you living with me, or with this pile of broken paper?" The daughter-in-law of the Martha writer stared at the tip of her nose and scolded angrily, not caring about the face of the writer.
"I can't live without my dreams. Let's go. The Martha writer is righteous in his words, holding the belief that there is no difference between a dream and a salted fish, and he confronts his daughter-in-law.
But the Martha writers can't even afford salted fish now, so what kind of dreams can they talk about?
I feel that the emotional intelligence of the Martha writer is terrible, and women are actually soft-hearted, and a few good words can persuade him back, unless he is really disappointed in this man,
It's a pity that he doesn't understand women's hearts, and Ma's sister-in-law always runs away.
Losing a spouse in middle age is also a tragedy of life, but fortunately this tragedy did not last long, because just after reaching the end of the year, the writer of the University of Marton passed away.
The so-called details determine fate, after Ma's sister-in-law left home, the indispensable Martha writer never recovered.
The minds of the people in Xianji Town are advancing with the times, and they all feel that in this year when feelings are thinner than paper, separation is not a big deal, why would it be such a big blow to the writers of the University of Malaysia.
The possible cause is not one-sided.
First of all, it is everyone's attitude towards him, the people of Xianji Town are more traditional, and people are gradually alienated from this once sensational writer in Liuhe, and everyone is reluctant to talk to this bachelor more, for fear of being infected with bad luck.
Of course, I often go to his house because I don't often live in the village and am not afraid of gossip.
He was very poor at that time, and I often went to his house to relax, and he was very hospitable, and I had nowhere else to go.
I've also seen some of the scrap paper that caused him to lose his daughter-in-law. sighed, and suddenly regretted.
I've been thinking that it's a pity that he can't get ahead when he has such a good talent and catches up with such a good time, but compared to those successful people who have fallen from a height, the mentality of a Martha writer is excellent after all.
I have never heard him complain, and his eyes are extremely bright, as if he can see hope through the ripples of autumn water, comparable to Pushkin's mentality after being deceived by life.
At this time, he was still entertaining himself and bursting with happiness.
Or, to say that he has a high sense of happiness, it is better to say that he has a good mentality, after all, the most knowledgeable people can see through the darkness to see the clear sky above the dark clouds, and those who know a little can often become the best trolls and the best keyboard warriors.
However, the happiest people are actually the most ignorant people, the clever work and the wise worry about it, and the so-called ignorant people have nothing to ask for, which may be like me.
People who are bored will also sympathize with each other.
In his last days, I often went to see the Martha writers, and I didn't want him to teach me anything, and I didn't understand most of what he said.
I was so bored that I needed a more boring place to bring out my presence.
And he didn't teach me anything, just played all kinds of chess with me, and talked about some martial arts novels, which I was fortunate to hear, but I have to say that the novels he told me were particularly fascinating, although my appreciation ability was not high, but in my impression, except for Gu Long Jin Yong's works, I can basically catch up with all the martial arts novels I have seen and heard.
I have never heard of these colorful stories, those vivid characters are vivid and distinct, and I have never heard of them, not even Baidu, and I began to wonder if these classics were written by himself.
If so, why doesn't he publish a book, although I am more timid, but the literary value and the quality of the story can still be distinguished, and what he passed on orally is really incomparable.
The master is in the people, and he is said to be a person like a writer at the University of Malaysia.
Of course, I can't praise him too much, after all, I actually hate people like him, and the University of Malaysia writer has no major shortcomings except for erudition, let alone any advantages, and this kind of person is the most difficult to get along with.
The impression of a writer to me should be proud and independent, with a demeanor and a love of dragging stinky farts.
But the Martha writer is not like other literati who live alone, and he is not like Tao Yuanming, who does not eat the fireworks of the world, which is vividly reflected in his novels, which are the hearts of writers.
I gradually accepted this kind of person, and I felt that some of the things he said were more practical and useful than some empty truths.
I found out that he should be the most knowledgeable in our village, comparable to an encyclopedia, and knows more than the principal of the primary school in the village.
Let's talk about his.
Dictionary meaning: Tonghua, is the meaning of flowers.
It is recorded in the "Ancient Sayings" that the spring blossoms and the autumn is fruitful, the autumn does not bear fruit, and the winter burns. The general meaning is that if a flower called a flower is opened, it will be extraordinarily bright and bear fruit. If it does not bear fruit, it can only be burned as chopping wood.
The Martha writer is like a treasure, and later, I lost this treasure that I could absorb knowledge.
The most learned man eventually left, because his novels were so attractive? He was called away by God?
It's not a jealous talent, but it's also very regrettable.
It was a blessing day, and black smoke rose from the home of the Martha writer, and it went straight to the sky. Because this day of folk customs pays attention to worshiping heaven and earth, many people are burning paper to worship the sky, and the big guys don't take it too seriously.
My family is also worshipping the sky, and my father is burning paper and incense, while looking at the direction of the Martha literary family, who is so pious, why is the incense so vigorous.
Before he finished sighing, there was a sound of shouting to put out the fire, and then I knew that there was an accident at the home of the Martha writer, and it turned out that it was not burning paper, but burning people.
Never before had the people of Xianji Town been so united, and they ran to put out the fire, but it was too late for the people to arrive.
After a few novels, in the ruins, everyone found the remains of the Martha writer, and in this way, the great literary giants of the generation in Xianji Town burned themselves to the ground a few days before the Chinese New Year.
No one thought that he would end his almost ridiculous life in such an extreme way.
But I thought that I should bless him, this is his proper destination, this is the most noble etiquette for literature, with the burning of fire, to dedicate his body and mind to the gods.
Maybe his soul will go to the place that suits him best.
