One Sentence is worth ten thousand Sentences reading notes

preface

It has been nearly half a month since I finished reading this book, but I haven’t written any reading notes. This book always reminds me that it is more like “To Live”, which has very simple words with very strong local characteristics. What impressed me most about this book is Yang Baishun’s sense of “loneliness” and her sense of being involved in the life of the people at the bottom.

In addition, Baidu Encyclopedia for the interpretation of this book is more interesting, interested in this book readers can have a look.

Personal assessment

Personally 4 stars, like the delay Zimbabwe just part of the reading is the key part, this part of content about bai-shun Yang ill-fated living away from home, at the same time with all kinds of characters make the whole story frame more rich, such as the toad to eat swan meat to all sectors and Yang Lao Yang “eyesight fails” not true friends, The story of these supporting characters seems to have nothing to do with Yang Baishun, but it does promote the core of the whole story, but also to complete the whole story of the edges of the puzzle.

In addition, the name Yang Baishun is also interesting. In fact, the main character has been “unlucky”, not only changing his name 3 or 4 times, but also not seeing his daughter until the end, and not realizing his dream of becoming a mourner like Luo Changli (but the last name was changed to Luo Changli). Let a person a little SOB feeling at the same time also feeling is really expected.

Books introduce

The following is an excerpt from the encyclopedia.

“> < p style =” max-width: 100%; clear: both; min-height: 1em; The upper part of “Out of Yanjin ji” tells the story of the early 20th century in henan rural areas, a lonely and helpless farmer — Wu Moses in order to look for his wife who eloped with others, on the road lost the only can “talk” adopted daughter, in order to find her, he had to walk out of Yanjin; The second part of “Returning to Yeonjin Ji” tells the story of Niu, the son of Wu Mohe’s adopted daughter, Qiao Ling, who goes to Yeonjin to find his wife who eloped with others. Once come and go, delay a hundred years. The story is deceptively simple but has a long aftertaste. Most of the characters in the book are from the lowest levels of Chinese society.

The book is full of metaphors and symbols, which are directly related to the author in terms of characters and plots. The author uses his own feelings to insert into the book and expresses his “ten thousand words” in his heart with the theme of Yang Bae-soon’s life and visits to Yeonjin.

Character analysis

This book impressed me a few people: God father old Zhan, the protagonist Yang Baishun, brother Yang Baiye, Qiao Ling, let’s analyze one by one

God took the jg

After years of local life in China, God father Lao Zhan is an Italian. He has developed very strong northern Chinese characteristics. He has been committed to the propaganda of Christian doctrine, but only a few followers have been developed in his life. It also reflects that the secular desire makes people pursue the reality and things they can “own”. However, people’s desire is infinite, just like the “devil’s whisper” contained in the will of God father Lao Zhan to Yang Baishun.

Such a character, on the other hand, for the delay of tianjin bai-shun Yang is “god”, the direction of bai-shun Yang became Yang Moses after baptism, and Moses is often mentioned in the bible, the word means “save”, so the old zhan in this role actually can be regarded as a way to save the best suitable took it to the right direction of the core, Although Yang Baishun and the conflict, but is guidance and give advice to the real friend.

Finally, the key to the character’s existence lies in the fact that when Yang Baishun joined the Wu family, he warned Yang Baishun that important things in his life must be decided by himself and let Yang baishun finally make up his mind, which is also a turning point at the core of the story. From the follow-up of the story, Lao Zhan also let Yang Baishun change his fate and find the meaning and purpose of existence.

Bai-shun Yang

It can also be called Yang Moses, Wu Moses, and Luo Changli. I am not willing to go into too much detail about this character, but I would like to pick the biggest characteristics of Yang Baishun: Lonely, this character’s experience is to find the meaning of existence in the waste of the world, the heart has been eager to “shout” like Luo Changli, this shout is eager to have their own happy life and happy life like Luo Changli.

Bai-shun Yang’s career is not plain sailing, oneself for the torre pit it didn’t succeed in school so choose to run away from home to study kill pig, the pig because he said bad words behind be driven to dyeing, the dyeing house did not learn craft is the boss’s beloved birds being released, then follow the old zhan convert to Christianity as a home, still uncomfortable, Finally, wu Xiangxiang home to sell steamed bread, so really say Yang Baishun’s main business is more like selling steamed bread, in yanjin renamed After Luo Changli after the main business is also selling cakes.

ling

Qiao Ling is not like Wu Moses (Yang Baishun converted into the name of the vegetates) daughter, more like the spiritual place of Wu Moses, Qiao Ling is the beginning of the whole Yanjin is also the end, Wu Moses is eager to see her daughter Qiao Ling all her life, but things go against one’s will, Wu Moses renamed Luo Changli to live again until finally still did not see, Qiao Ling minority and Wu Moses can say the spiritual sustention of the heart, after wu Xiangxiang affairs escape, follow Wu Moses all the time to live, until being abducted.

Yang arranges

All sectors of the story is intermittent, Yang is roughly a swan see eye to marry the toad’s story, Yang stayed at home all sectors for inheritance do his father’s footsteps, tofu tofu sold to others more price results be mistaken for good heart, but eventually a wife to marry come in later discovered is entering a “broken” door, intestines also regrets youth, so people can’t just rely on the eyes, We should investigate from all angles.

Read story

Of course, the interpretation of the story is also carried out according to personal understanding, personal ability is limited, the interpretation may not meet everyone’s feelings, if you have your own understanding, welcome to discuss.

Never speak ill of a man behind his back

This maxim from bai-shun Yang a warning is to learn to kill pig, not for the teacher to him by the backlog of complaints and complaints have been in my heart, to found a master teacher niang accommodation also dashed expectations after himself, however, is this time bai-shun Yang didn’t hide his grievances in the in the mind, to spy on him. As a result, it was passed on by the big mouth, and a little thing became darker and darker. Finally, it completely changed its taste when it reached the master’s ears. Therefore, never speak ill of others behind your back, even if your heart is full of dissatisfaction.

Make your own decisions about important things

The motto comes from James, who gives it personally, not as a priest: “Make your own decisions about what’s important” so you don’t regret it later. It’s not too much to read here, since everyone knows what it means.

conclusion

What does the sentence of “One sentence is worth ten thousand sentences” represent? According to personal understanding, it is “personal universal wisdom”, which is also a maxim. This sentence contains personal three views and personality, personal life experience, and the true meaning of life. For example, God father Lao Zhan’s maxim: the front is an angel, facing the light, but the back hides the devil, but always in the dark side, and “you must make your own decisions about important things in life”, Yang Baishun’s “life is after, not before”, this sentence is also the meaning of existence.

Write in the last

A great book to read for relaxation and immersion. Personally, it is also the most successful book of the author’s life. It is also a good book to ponder and savor.
