In the minds of many people, Lu Xun is probably the serious face of "horizontal eyebrows and cold pairs" in textbooks. But as everyone knows, the real Lu Xun is also a somewhat "naughty" and humorous person.
As early as during his schooling, Lu Xun's interesting personality was evident. What he does best is to give nicknames to people around him, and he is also very addicted to nicknames.
First, it was fun to be a teenager
Xia Yan once commented on Lu Xun: "Lu Xun's humor is fatal. Indeed, looking at the Chinese modern and contemporary literary scene, Lu Xun must be a fun and interesting person who meets once in a century.
When Lu Xun was still studying in the Sanwei Bookstore, on the basis of not being excessive, he would always give others some innocuous nicknames. For example, at that time, there was a girl in their class who loved to cry. Because when tears are shed, tears always flow down with snot, so Lu Xun gave her the nickname "Four Strips".
The textbook lost the most authentic Lu Xun, and also made people ignore his interesting soul, thinking that he was just a dry, very serious old-fashioned.
Because of his talent, Lu Xun's grades were always the best in the class. At that time, the teacher gave the people in the class a link: "Unicorn". In order to get praise from the teacher, a classmate asked Lu Xun for an answer.
Lu Xun gave his classmates an idea and said that he should be right: "Four-eyed dog." In order to get praise, this naïve classmate honestly took this as the answer, and was angrily scolded by their bespectacled teacher. And Lu Xun sat on the side, covering his face with a book, resisting the urge to laugh.
In view of the characteristics of female classmates and teachers, Lu Xun somewhat took these nicknames. A generation of literary masters, once also a humorous and interesting teenager. But in fact, the real Lu Xun is still far more than that.
Second, give others nicknames addiction
Lu Xun is a person who practices humor all his life. Moreover, he is also very talented in humor. When he was a student, in addition to giving nicknames to female classmates and teachers, no one living around Lu Xun was spared.
Once, Lu Xun, who loved to read "idle books", quietly bought a picture book. After being known by his younger brother Zhou Zuoren, Zhou Zuoren ran to their father and filed a complaint. Lu Xun's father was naturally furious and beat Lu Xun fiercely. Later, Lu Xun knew that it was Zhou Zuoren who sued him, and he was very angry, and immediately gave Zhou Zuoren the nickname of "Slander", which means that Zhou Zuoren is a person who loves to enter into rumors.
At that time, Zhou Zuoren was still young and could not understand the meaning of this nickname. So Lu Xun indignantly changed it to "completely despicable."
Lu Xun had the talent to take nicknames, and he did not waste this talent at all. Lu Xun, who was still a young master in his childhood, once ate shaved ice at home and was bumped into by the tenant Mrs. Shen Si. Mrs. Shen Si persuaded him that after eating stomach pain, she also told Lu Xun's mother about it. Lu Xun, who was once again "served by the family law", nicknamed Mrs. Shen Si "stomachache". After knowing that this matter was known to his mother, Lu Xun was subjected to another "family law".
Lu Xun not only has a funny personality, but also a king who takes the nickname. Who said that the masters were all serious and serious, and knew the real Lu Xun, who would not like such an interesting and humorous person as Lu Xun? Lu Xun, like most of us, was a classmate of "mischievous" people.
Third, taking nicknames has become a habit
For Lu Xun, taking a nickname is also a difficult creation, but also a remarkable talent. Lu Xun gave nicknames to everyone around him, and Xu Guangping and Zhou Hainian were of course among them.
Among the nicknames that Lu Xun gave xu Guangping, "harmful horses" were the most well-known. This nickname is short for the idiom "black sheep". In the wave of female teachers, because Xu Guangping was too prominent, after she was expelled by the principal Yang Mengyu, she was also announced: "Even if you order to leave the school, so as not to be a black sheep." Lu Xun was indignant about this, so he used the other name to satirize Yang Mengyu and his party.
When Zhou Hainian was a child, she was often called "Little White Elephant" by Lu Xun, but most of the time she was also called "Little Bullshit". The habit of giving nicknames to others and liking to call others nicknames is like a way of lu xun's affection for others.
When teaching at Peking University, Lu Xun did not change the habit of giving nicknames to others since he was a student. At that time, Peking University professor Kawashima always kept the hairstyle of the student's head, which was called "a pinch of hair" by Lu Xun.
In addition to life, Lu Xun affectionately called Chuandao "a handful of Mao Brothers", and later when he gave Chuandao the "Historical Outline of Chinese Novels", he also wrote on the title page of the book: "Please, from the arms of your lover, temporarily stretch out a hand and accept this dry and tasteless "Historical Outline of Chinese Novels", a handful of Mao brothers I respect!" ”
So delicate, so fleshy to call others, who would have thought that this was Lu Xun! Love to take the nickname, and so humorous and funny Lu Xun, do you really not love?
