In the novel collection of "Qingcheng", Xu Zechen shows the unique choices of these men and women in love when telling the love story of the three sisters.
How love begins, the lives of two people intersect, and love is possible.
A phone call, a note, inexplicably pushed the mute woman Xixia into the arms of Wang Yiding, and the two strangers had overlapping lives at that moment. Hu Fangyu took advantage of Ju Yan's admiration and admiration for him and took the initiative to intersect with her. The search notice, Hailing Stadium, destiny to promote the encounter between Tang Tuo and Ju Yan, the search was not obtained, and gave them the opportunity to know each other. The persistence of art makes Qingcheng find the old iron again after four years, and the motherhood that floods in advance drives her to enter the life of this man. A small two-bedroom apartment, where the spirit of calligraphy and painting meets, bringing Qingcheng closer to "me".
Not all encounters will collide with the spark of love, but encounters give love a possibility. When love falls into the heart of an individual, it requires everyone to make the possible choices.
Waiting and companionship may be xixia's love choice. Whether it was waiting for Wang Yiding when they first met, or the shining eyes in the willow tree cave, Xixia always waited in the same place, where Wang Yiding could see when he turned back. In the end, Wang Yiding recognized his heart, and Xixia's waiting and persistence also blossomed. In their love, Xixia assumed the role of a good wife and mother, the busy figure in the kitchen, the residual aroma on the clothes, the silent companionship in the bookstore, and the Xixia little by little into Wang Yiding's lonely wandering life, bringing the warmth of the world. After the two had a relationship, Xixia became Wang Yiding's considerate love partner, and was the existence of knowing cold and knowing heat. This is the comfortable state that Xixia chooses for herself, making her feel that she is needed and can give, and feel her value in love.
Concession is Ju Yan's choice in order to maintain Hu Fangyu's love relationship. She lives under the strong arrangement of men, constantly making concessions for love: cooking dishes that do not meet her own tastes, only to satisfy the man's stomach; quitting her teaching job just to make the home less "desolate"; constantly giving up on herself, just to maintain an emotional relationship. Ju Yan retreated again and again, and finally there was no way to retreat, becoming a canary living in a corner of the house, and lost the direction of life. Until Hu Fangyu did not quit, disrupted Ju Yan's original life and lost love. Ju Yan made a second choice about love - to find Hu Fangyu. Searching is Juyan's insistence on love, and it is her inquiry into this missing love. Finding Hu Fangyu was Ju Yan's original belief in going to Beijing, and even though he later found himself in the struggle and fell in love with Tang Tu for a long time in getting along, his obsession with finding Hu Fangyu still existed, resulting in Ju Yan and Tang Tu always living in the "dormitory" instead of belonging to the "home" shared by the two people. Although the ending meets Hu Fangyu, Ju Yan turns to let go of the past with Hu Fangyu and chooses the love from Tang Tuo.
Qingcheng is always chasing love, chasing the strong and arrogant eagle in her heart, Lao Tie and "I" are the objects she has chased. She walked into lao tie's frustrated life without hesitation, acted as his double mentor in life and spirit, assumed the responsibility of taking care of the family, cared about the decadent spiritual world of lao tie, and took him out of the original spiritual difficulties, came to a new city, and started a new life. Later, the old iron disease became more and more serious, the eagle collapsed in Qingcheng's heart little by little, and "I" just appeared, and the strong body and extremely high calligraphy attracted Qingcheng, and she once again chose to chase the eagle in her heart. Chasing is Qingcheng's choice about love, but not all, and bearing is another choice for Love in Qingcheng. Compared with Xixia and Juyan, Qingcheng is more mature in love, she understands the responsibility and sacrifice from love, knows what she wants and what she carries, so she gives up the "I" who is superior to The Old Iron and continues to walk with the Old Iron.
"Xixia", "Juyan", "Qingcheng", three stories, three kinds of love, we can obviously feel that they have their own insistence on love, and constantly make choices in love to maintain this emotional relationship, hoping to finally get the longevity of love. But the choice of love is never one-way, the initial choice of love is difficult to support a long-term love, just as JuYan's initial concession in love was eventually abandoned by Hu Fangyu; the love between Qingcheng and "I" from the spirit also ended with "I" leaving. Unilateral payment may extend the shelf life of love, but in the end, it cannot last forever. The real longevity must be the mutual need of two people, which is the result of the two-way choice of love.
Xixia always accompanied Wang Yiding, giving him the daily warmth of eating and drinking Lazar. In the vast city of Beijing, Wang Yiding has always been a wanderer, and the emergence of Xixia has brought him a sense of belonging to his family. Two lonely drifters, who need each other and warm each other, have the motivation to go on for a long time. Tang Tuo, who worked alone outside, was attracted by Ju Yan's persistence, and the two encouraged and supported each other, gradually developed feelings, drew ordinary happiness from the fireworks life, and built a small home that belonged to them. The maternal love and care of Qingcheng is undoubtedly a comfort for Lao Tie, who has just experienced an unsatisfactory marriage. Old Tie needs Qingcheng, and needs Qingcheng to make up for the lack of individual hearts, so he chooses silence. Old Tie was silent about seeing the eagle that night Qingcheng and "I", and the eagle painted that night was more like Old Iron's final struggle for love, and finally understood that as long as he could live well with Qingcheng, other things were not so important.
Life always needs to go on, and the same is true of love. In love, there is no supposed long-term, no choice, and love will be unsustainable. Three love stories, three women, the choice about love is just a small microcosm of reality, life is a thousand postures, love is a thousand looks, if you want to get the longevity of this world, you must make your own choices in love.
