After the divorce, 42-year-old Jia Pingwo liver disease recurred and was admitted to the hospital. One night, a beautiful 25-year-old model broke into the ward and said to Jia Pingyu: "Teacher Jia, you marry me as a wife!" Jia Pingyu was stunned at the time.
In 1992, because he suspected that Jia Pingwo was "mentally derailed", his wife made a big fuss at Lu Yao's funeral, when Lao Jia looked extremely ugly, and announced in public that he would divorce his wife, and all the property belonged to his wife, and his wife was angry and ridiculed: "You men have the rotten virtue of liking the new and disliking the old!" Jia Ping sighed helplessly and shook his head.
The next year, Jia Pingwo's "Waste Capital" caught fire, but he didn't expect to be banned again half a year later, and under the double blow, Jia Pingwo's liver disease recurred and he was admitted to the hospital.
After being hospitalized, Jia Pingyu has always been nursed by a nurse named Guo Mei, who is not only his ward nurse, but also an amateur model with a beautiful figure, and coincidentally, Guo Mei is also his avid book fan.
Guo Mei is 17 years younger than Jia Pinggou, she has read all of Jia Pinggou's works, and she takes good care of him in the hospital, so Guo Mei also has a different kind of affection for Jia Pinggou in the back and forth.
So on that night, Guo Mei boldly confessed to Jia Pingwo, and Jia Pingwo, who was at the trough of his life, had just divorced, and the age difference between the two was so much, he hesitated and retreated.
However, Guo Mei is always in love, still chasing him, Jia Pingyu was moved, it was difficult to refuse this girl's wishes, and he also wanted to be faithful to his inner feelings, so he agreed to marry her, although the two were 17 years apart, but neither of them cared.
After marriage, Jia Pingyu has always been preoccupied, and he always looks like he wants to talk and stop facing Guo Mei. After a long time, Guo Mei asked Jia Pingwo if there was anything she wanted to discuss with her, and Jia Pingwo told her that she had never been able to let go of her daughter Jia Qiansha in her heart, so she asked Guo Mei to visit her daughter regularly every week.
I thought that Guo Mei would disagree, but I didn't expect that Guo Mei not only agreed, but also took gifts to the door when Jia Pingwo didn't have time. Guo Mei's understanding made Jia Pingyu couldn't help but sigh: "It's worth it, marry the right person in this life."
Later, in order to let Jia Pingwo create with peace of mind, Guo Mei even quit her job and returned home to take care of her home and take care of Jia Pingwo, and under Guo Mei's careful care, Jia Pingwo started creating again.
Downstairs in Jia Pingwo's office, there is a café where the hostess is a beautiful androgynous woman, surrounded by a group of independent women who are also full of charm. Jia Pingyu was moved by their charm and had the idea of writing a novel about the desires and faces of urban women based on them.
The central character of the novel is Hai Ruo, the owner of the tea plantation, who becomes the center of the story, describing the different lives of 12 single women. They look glorious, but in fact they are full of desire, and they do not hesitate to use all kinds of dishonorable means to pursue the greatest interests.
However, in the process of material pursuit, they feel empty and confused in their hearts, so they hope to use external forces to meet their spiritual needs, so they often talk about culture, art, Zen, etc., and even longing for the advent of the Living Buddha.
However, the sinking of desire cannot be saved by external forces alone. The sisters eventually disappeared, were detained, or died, returning to a state of silence like a tea estate burned to ruins.
"Sitting Down", as another novel by Jia Pingwo that reveals human desires, has something in common with "Waste Capital", their writing style is similar, both profoundly reveal social phenomena, and both have a merry male shuttling through the flowers.
The difference is that "Seated" focuses on a female perspective, and because the author has a richer life experience, the work is also more in-depth.
After reading it, readers said with great emotion: "Jia Pingwo can always describe the unspeakable parts of human nature. ”
I believe that although "Waste Capital" has been banned for 16 years, it still shines, and "Sitting Down" does not need to go through these hardships, and can also become a rare pearl in the history of Chinese literature.
"There is poetry in the belly", your cultivation and temperament are contained in your reading. Tasting the works of the masters will surely increase your knowledge, improve your cultivation, and enrich your spiritual world.
Let Jia Pingwo tell you how the women in the "sit-on" tea plantation go to the road of no return? How did the tea estate turn to ashes? Click on the link below for a close conversation with the Master.
