Tell an allusion related to Zhang Yi

At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, not many articles were created, for various reasons.

Every year, people will always sigh, and various mobile Internet terminal software also provides a platform and opportunity for people to vent these emotions.

However, to put it in a heartfelt way, most of our feelings are just a weak complaint.

After that state, what should we do?

Because we can neither change the status quo nor can we change ourselves, we can only continue along the path of the present.

Today, I want to share with you a story that has been lingering in my mind these days, which is related to Zhang Yi, a longitudinal family during the Warring States period.

This story was actually heard a long time ago when a historian commented on the history of the Warring States.

Some personal experiences over the years have made me realize some unusual places.

Zhang Yi was a famous longitudinal and horizontal family during the Warring States period.

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang said when he was fighting the Confucianism, Zhang Yi and his brother Su Qin were the "heroes" of the world, and their words and deeds were enough to shake the union and division of the seven heroes of the Warring States.

However, behind anyone's glamor, there is a period of hard work to pave the way.

Zhang Yi had just graduated from the Ghost Guzi Gate, and after stepping into the society, he was once hit by various crits from the society.

At the worst time, because he was suspected of stealing Xiangguo's jade in the Chu Kingdom, Zhang Yi was beaten all over by the people of Xiangye's mansion.

When Zhang Yi limped home and his wife helped him wipe his wounds in tears, Zhang Yi suddenly asked his wife a strange question:

"Do you see if the tongue in my mouth is still there?"

His wife was puzzled by Zhang Yi's somewhat strange question, but still told him:

"The tongue is still there."

So Zhang Yi set a FLAG to his wife,

"As long as the tongue is still there, I will definitely turn over and succeed!"

Later, Zhang Yi really succeeded as he said, met Qin twice, and became a popular figure at that time.

Years ago, when I heard historians talk about this allusion, I once dismissed it as an inspirational joke.

It is true that Zhang Yi has jumped from a small common man living at the bottom of society to a big figure who affects the pattern of the Warring States, what could be more inspirational?

When we lament that Zhang Yi has completed the feat of counterattack in life, we should also note that in this story, a character that is easily overlooked, that is, Zhang Yi's wife.

Although there is not much description of Zhang Yi's wife in the history books, I think Zhang Yi can counterattack and has a great connection with his wife.

We can imagine a scenario like this:

After graduating from Ghost Guzi, Zhang Yi has been wandering in society for many years, but she has never been able to find a good job, earn money, support her family, and even give her daughter-in-law a "520" red envelope on the Qixi Festival.

Did his wife complain? Left?

None at all.

On this day, because he offended his boss, he not only lost his job, but also was violently beaten in public by his boss, which can be described as losing face and almost dying.

Seeing that life has completely fallen into despair, Zhang Yi's wife is still wiping his wounds with distress.

How many wives can do this in real life?

What really moves people is this detail that follows.

Zhang Yi was already down, and was still asking his wife an almost absurd question: whether his tongue was still there.

If you were a bystander, you might have been angry a long time ago, and all kinds of cynicism came to your face.

A woman has followed you for so many years, and the problem of food and clothing warmth cannot be solved, and it has long been disappointing. Today, I mixed up this unproductive appearance outside, and I am still saying this kind of headless and brainless nonsense, and it is strange that this woman does not fry with you.

However, did Zhang Yi's wife show any emotions?

Nor is it.

Whether Zhang Yi was serious or talking nonsense, she continued to follow Zhang Yi's meaning and told him: The tongue is still there.

I think this detail really reflects this woman's tolerance and tolerance of her man.

Because she sent a message to Zhang Yi: No matter what you fall into, I will believe in you and support you without complaint, and I will guard you without emotion.

She not only tolerated Zhang Yi's talent and progress, but also accepted his embarrassment and decline.

This is undoubtedly the greatest spiritual comfort for Zhang Yi, who is at the trough of her life.

This reminds me of Zhou Bingkun and his wife Zheng Juan in the novel "The World".

Among the Zhou siblings, Zhou Bingkun's personal achievements may not be comparable to his brothers and sisters, but in terms of marriage feelings, Zhou Bingkun is lucky, because he met Zheng Juan, who can accept him all, and Zheng Juan puts everything in Bingkun's heart, just like Zhang Yi's wife always does not abandon him.

Su Qin and Zhang Yi's lives are counterattack and inspirational, but I think Zhang Yi's counterattack is full of warmth. Because when he tasted the warmth of the world, his wife had been silently waiting by his side.

In the history books, we only see how Zhang Yi crisscrossed and influenced the situation of the seven heroes of the Warring States after becoming the Xiangguo of the Qin State, and the scenery was infinite, but we never saw how this woman ended up in the end.

At least from my personal standpoint, I want her to be treated well by life.
