The novel "Qin Cavity": Visible life and the hometown that cannot be returned

The novel "Qin Cavity": Visible life and the hometown that cannot be returned

Before I read it, I thought that the novel "Qin Cavity" would be the same as Chen Yan's novel "Protagonist", telling the story of Qin Cavity and the people who sang Qin Cavity. I didn't expect that the novel was almost half read, and there was really not much ink given to Qin Lu. Except for a Qin actor Bai Xue, who almost only appears in the world of introduction, and The Summer Zhi who occasionally embellishes Ti Ti's love of Qin Cavity, there is nothing to do with Qin Cavity after that.

The story of the novel is set in the countryside of Shaanxi, and there are too many similarities with the countryside when I was a child. I almost read the novel and thought about the world of my childhood. The kind of rural life that no longer exists at the moment.

My memories of my rural hometown are mainly from the early nineties. Just like the world in the book, life is very poor, the family has no money, there are frequent power outages, I often write homework under the kerosene lamp, and the old woman also works under the kerosene lamp. The electricity for our production team was improved when my father was the captain. Much like in the novel, you need to run the electricity bureau, the substation, and buy poles and transformers. However, it is estimated that few people still remember the events of that year.

The novel is a God perspective that opens with the eyes of the induced, although everyone thinks he is a fool, but the author gives him the limitations that are different from the locals at that time, and always can see the world from another height. He loves Snow deeply, but it is wishful thinking. In the real society, love is also a matter of two people, even if the love that arises is pure and immaculate, it is only his own game and the jokes of others.

My biggest memories of childhood are, first, the bitterness of life; and second, the precious human touch. The conditions of our living now cannot be imagined at that time; at the same time, the indifference of human feelings cannot be imagined in any way. The convenience of contact methods does not bring about a closer relationship, and we are all more willing to live in our own world.

In fact, if it is a madman, or something, it may be the blessing of a person's life. Because the world of madmen or whatever, is simple. Simple interpersonal relationships are the most comfortable. The so-called gentleman's friendship is as light as water, which should be the meaning. Unfortunately, we want too much, we have more worries, and then, there is no self, no life, just endless livelihood and endless rushing.

The people in the novel can hear Qin Lu, but I can no longer hear the comments of my childhood, the eighth and ninth sisters of the Yang family who are not afraid of power, the debauchery and drunken Liu Ling, the Qin Xianglian who has experienced all kinds of hardships but has not been willing to come...

The home of that year is long gone. I envy those who are already in their forties, and when it comes to holidays, they can drag their families back to their hometowns. Always feel: people with hometowns will never panic in their hearts.
