Have you ever seen green tea being dumped? You should have seen it, but green tea is rare from Liang. The green tea in the book we talked about today is not the same, she seduced her sister's fiancé, seduced her good girlfriend's husband, but wanted to refuse to return her true love. However, she also helped her enemies deliver babies in the chaotic world, in order to feed her family to farm and feed pigs, she exchanged marriage for survival. What would you say if you had a keyboard in your hand at this point?
It is estimated that I have guessed who it is, yes, it is the heroine in "Gone with the Wind", a legendary life textbook character. Today we're going to take it apart one by one and talk about the people in this story. You can read the previous article to add a synopsis.
First of all, the big heroine, Scarlett is a typical big heroine writing. The great heroine, is real, not perfect, neither silly white sweet, nor white lotus, nor black belly, she just lives for herself, for her sacrifice and brave author did not sing praises, but vividly showed growth and complexity.
On the eve of the American Civil War, the heroine is 17 years old, smart, beautiful and energetic, a big lady on the estate, with money in the family and more than 100 black slaves. And she was the most popular little sister in the county, and picnics, afternoon tea, dance parties, and flirting with her little brothers became her whole life.
According to the standards of that era, her personality was not perfect, and she maintained a ladylike style on the surface, but her bones were full of rebellion.
Born into a well-known family, she does not like to read, she is only good at calculations; even a little superficial, she does not understand and hates what advanced topics others discuss; she is very selfish, and she will never lend her favorite dress to others, even her own sister; she is very unpopular with female friends, because she always "seduces" the "men" who have taken away others easily.
It was such a person whose strengths and weaknesses were equally obvious, and her greatest pain before the outbreak of war was that her beloved man Ashley was going to marry Melanie. Then she went to confess the man, but was rejected again, and when she was rejected, she did not burst into tears, but scolded the other party fiercely and smashed a vase.
But after the outbreak of war, Scarlett's life changed completely, and the greatest pain in her world was the decay of her Tara manor.
When she braved the cannon fire to return to the manor, thinking that she could have a dependence, she was greeted by the death of her mother and the dementia of her father, and the whole family struggled with hunger and poverty.
But all this did not destroy her will, at this turning point of fate, she underwent a painful transformation, became the head of the family, rebuilt the manor after the war, at this time her blood flowed strong and stubborn, her shrewdness, willfulness, selfishness were all revealed, such as she swore that as long as she no longer starved, let her kill people,
"What reputation? Hell yes! ”。
In order to pay off the $300 tax on the estate, she did not hesitate to "steal" her sister's rich boyfriend Frank. After marrying Frank, she immediately took over the ownership of his sawmill and became the only woman in Atlanta who ran a business like a man.
In order to make money, you can do whatever it takes, regardless of the hatred of war, to do business with the Yankees. Emotionally, he also acted arbitrarily, repeatedly confessing to his friend Melanie's husband, Bai Xili, never caring about the feelings of his friend and her husband Brad.
This makes this character seem particularly real, people are like this, the more selfish you are, everyone thinks you are real, you are selfless, others still feel fake, but how can there be people who grow up overnight or become bad or better? The turning point in the movie is faithfully represented.
About the big heroine, there are too many people who love her bravery and strength, in the face of life she is indeed a warrior, face the dilemma indomitable, this is a head iron person, but emotionally, this head iron has created her various bumpy encounters, feelings are like this, can make the head iron people bow their heads, you do not bow your head then die.
So Scarlett's emotional head is almost ignorant, a predatory love, she has been married three times, but she has not really read the feelings, as Red, who loves her deeply, said, emotionally she is still just a child.
Why not, only a child will always clamor for a pair of beautiful crystal shoes, even if in the end it is not suitable for him; only childish behavior will rush home to draw a line with her husband just because of a hot-headed conversation with an old lover to show loyalty; only a childish person will think that a word of sorry can compensate for years of mistakes and injuries, even if it is a foregone conclusion.
There are always a few people around the iron-headed man who are perfectly tolerant of themselves, such as Melanie and Brad, Melanie is a seemingly weak but can always fight for her with a knife and even against the whole world, and Brad is a man who fully understands that she also loves her and tolerates her - these two people, the former, she looks down on and even a little disgusted, the latter, she is at ease to enjoy but arbitrarily abuse his love.
How pitiful Brad is, the most feared thing about loving a person is to encounter prejudice, Brad has been wrestling with the prejudice in Scarlett's head, but you can never defeat the dream lover of her youth, because it does not exist, it is just a dream woven in her heart, and how can you win a dream, Don Quixote can never defeat the windmill.
People are self-consistent, selective and only believe what they believe. Scarlett, who has an iron head, is blinded by the dreams she has woven, so how can she see the real world. It wasn't until she lost them on the same day that she finally woke up, but it was too late.
So she said: I love a person I have made up myself, a lifeless person like Melanie. I made beautiful clothes and fell in love with it. When Ashley rode over on his horse, he was so handsome and so different that I put that dress on him, whether it fit or not. So I couldn't see what he really looked like. In fact, what I have always loved is that dress, not him at all.
Fantasies are always beautiful, and people are always in love with only the people they imagine.
Unfortunately, she finally understood this truth, although in the book Barred asked her how old she was, she said that when she was 28 years old, I was shocked, after so much experience, only 28 years old, maybe this dream is not too late to wake up.
The greatest tragedy for a hard-headed Scarlett is the failure to understand the two men she loves, if she knows Ashley, then she won't love him anymore, and if she knows Red, then she won't lose him. When love ignites, it is hot and crazy like a burst of fireworks rising into the air, and when it is extinguished, it is black and cold, and it can be indifferent as if it is deliberate, as if the whole world is only you and I don't care.
So when I read this book for the second time ten years later, the last sentence "Tomorrow is another day" that was regarded by many as a motto, what I felt was not some motivating force, but a magic weapon that an iron-headed person must have to encourage himself to survive, and here it was more helplessness; What's the solution, today is so difficult, wait until tomorrow.
If you are also an iron-headed person, then I hope you wake up earlier, in that moment of waking up in the middle of the night, when you wake up alone from the dark room, the window is a blank fog that cannot be dissolved, and there is no one around in the silence, you can think of Scarlett also lost in the fog of life, panicking, running, gasping, looking around for her home.
You may also have had Red who loved you deeply, but has left you, and you hear your inner percussion about the past and hesitation about the future, and this noise is entangled, it is better that you are still young at that time, rather than dying old, and it is best to put on a nightgown like Scarlett, give yourself a cup of brandy, skillfully, and drink it all.
Well, in the next issue we'll talk about the Brad who loves her deeply, see you next time.
