Essentials
Young student Fan Jiashu went north to live in his cousin's house, ready to enter the university in Beijing, in his spare time, Fan Jiashu likes to enjoy the scenery the most, and has played all over the famous places in Beijing.
One day, Fan Jiashu was wandering alone on the overpass, admiring the city of the lower-class citizens, and accidentally met a chivalrous man who hid in the overpass, this chivalrous man's name was Guan Shoufeng. He is an old man of about 50 years old, he is healthy, his nature is bold, he sets up a stall on the overpass, meets friends with martial arts, and makes friends with literati and warriors. Although Jiashu is an aristocratic college student, he has no brother-in-law and is full of awe for the old man. The two of them have thus formed a friendship! Fan Jiashu met a girl who sold art by singing a big drum on the overpass, this girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with long red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows, and very handsome! Fan Jiashu pitied her for her poor life. They often supported their family's life in the name of listening to the drama. Fan Jiashu's whereabouts attracted the attention of his cousin's family, who mistakenly believed that Jiashu was attracted to Guan Shoufeng's daughter Xiugu, so he often haunted between the overpasses. My cousin's family is a high-ranking official in Beijing and often learns a European-style life style because of staying in foreign countries! He often dragged his cousin Fan Jiashu to participate in various activities together, and at the dance party, he met a girl named He Lina. What is amazing is that He Lina's face actually coincides with the girl who sang the big drum on the flyover, which is very similar! It's just that this Miss He is short-haired and gorgeously dressed, and her hands and feet exude a kind of aristocratic atmosphere He Lina rarely sees such a loyal young man as the professor on weekdays, so she has a good feeling for him and takes the initiative to talk to her. When the cousin's family saw that the two talked very well, they had the intention of matching the two people, so they often joked with them, but the family tree was not moved! It turned out that what he couldn't forget in his heart was the girl Shen Fengxi who was selling art on the overpass! When Shen Fengxi met such a warm-hearted and upright young man as Jiashu, he couldn't help but be secretly moved, so he took the initiative to give his photo to Fan Jiashu. Fan Jiashu put Fengxi's photo in the textbook that he usually reads, and he often goes to see Fengxi's performance, after hearing the singing, leaving a piece of the ocean to leave, Fengxi's mother is too unwilling to go, and takes the initiative to ask her daughter to accompany the family tree to walk and chat in frequent exchanges, Fan Jiashu finds more and more that Fengxi is a lovely girl, so he helps Fengxi go to school and study, and pays him and his family to settle in a single courtyard. Professor Huang, once met Xiugu on the street who had not seen each other for a long time, only to learn that Guan Shoufeng's family was forced to move, and was seriously ill, the family's financial difficulties, the family tree saw that their father and daughter had no money and no strength, and they were really pitiful, so they sent Guan Shoufeng to the hospital and bore all the costs. Xiugu misunderstood the enthusiastic help of the family tree, and the figure of the Fan family tree gradually filled the heart of a young girl!
FengXi moved into a new house, put on a girl's costume, ended the life of the overpass singing drums, became more gentle and moving, but invisibly promoted the character of admiring vanity, just when Xiugu Fang secretly agreed, accidentally discovered that the girl that the family tree liked was fengxi! And seeing the new home he arranged for Fengxi, Xiu Daggergu came home and was seriously ill, and after recovering from the illness, he read the Diamond Sutra with the old monk next door and visited the Buddha, so as to relieve his inner sorrow. He Lina's liking for Fan Jiashu also grew day by day, taking the initiative to visit Jiashu's home, taking the initiative to ask him to watch movies in the theater, and even willingly reducing the number of times he went to the dance hall because he did not like her rich lady style. All these cousins and sisters-in-law of the family tree are in the eyes, and they are very happy to see the combination of the two, so they often create opportunities for the two to meet.
Jiashu and Fengxi's relationship gradually stabilized, and they secretly engaged to the marriage contract, only to wait for the right opportunity to confess to Jiashu's mother. At this time, Fan Jiashu received a telegram from his home in Hangzhou to learn that his mother was ill, and he asked Guan Shoufeng's father and daughter to take care of Fengxi, so he hurried back to Hangzhou to visit his mother. After the family tree left, Feng Xi was alone at home, and the days were relatively calm. It's just that Fengxi's third uncle Shen Sanxian didn't change his old habits, still delicious and lazy, often reached out to Fengxi for money, one day when Shen Sanxian was wandering on the road, he met a friend Huang Hesheng who used to be on the same field, this Huang Hesheng has been looking for a young girl for Shuai Chang as a gift to the division commander's superior Liu Dashuai, he hit Fengxi's crooked idea, he connected with Shen Sanxian, and tricked Fengxi into going to the Shangshi Mansion, that Liu Dashuai's brother General Liu took a fancy to Fengxi and decided to marry Fengxi as his aunt, this Fengxi had a personality of loving vanity Now, seeing the grandeur of the generous people, coupled with the warm hospitality of Aunt Yaqin, there is also a bit of joy in my heart! General Liu often invited Feng Xi to come out to listen to the play, set up a banquet to entertain her, and often gave Feng Xi valuable jewelry, although Feng Xi was tempted by the world of flowers and flowers in front of her, but still remembered Fan Jiashu's instructions, categorically refused General Liu's gift, and waited at home for the family tree to return. General Liu was embarrassed and angry after being rejected, he found an excuse to arrest Fengxi into the palace, forcibly married her as his aunt, Fengxi's mother had no choice but to find Guan Shoufeng and help inquire about Fengxi's whereabouts, the chivalrous Guan Shoufeng visited Liu Mansion at night, but unexpectedly found that Fengxi could not resist the temptation of money, and willingly became General Liu's aunt!
After Fan Jiashu returned to Beijing, he discovered all these changes, but he did not blame Feng Xi's change of heart, and still had old feelings for her. Xiugu saw this scene, had to cherish her friendship with Professor Fan, and was bent on helping her arrange another meeting with Fengxi, and the depression in her heart finally made the family tree fall ill in bed. During this time, it was all thanks to He Lina's careful care that it gradually improved, and Jiashu knew in his heart that He Lina's attitude towards himself was helpless, and his entire body and mind could only pretend to be a girl under Fengxi! Only ashamed of He Lina's feelings for herself, Xiugu mixed into Liu Mansion as a servant with the instructions of her family, the purpose of which was to bring a message to Feng Xi to meet and discuss the matter of elopement, and when she waited for Feng Xi with confidence and hope, all she got was a check to compensate for the money, he was completely disappointed, and tore the check in front of him! Cut off any delusions about Fengxi! However, Feng Xi's life in Liu Mansion was not good, and General Liu often verbally intimidated her, beating people with a whip at every turn! Feng Xi couldn't help such abuse, and finally went crazy! Xiugu, at this time, has abandoned her children's lover, he and Guan Shoufeng assassinated General Liu together, and decided to go away! The last thing to do before leaving is to bring Fan Jiashu to He Lina, who has already visited the Buddha, and sincerely hope that the two can produce a spark of love...
"Laughing At the Cause" is the most acclaimed work of Zhang Hexhui in modern popular novels, and its publication caused a huge sensation at that time, and Luoyang paper was expensive for a while! In the meantime, producers and publishers thought that the odds were in order, and there was also a lawsuit, which a foreign critic explained: "He has only one advantage, that is, the reader wants to know what will happen next, he has only one disadvantage, the reader cannot know what will happen next...
The structure of "The Cause of Laughter" can be divided into two parts, the first chapter to the ninth chapter is the first half, the author Zhuo Yi wrote about the budding of the love of the three girls for Fan Jiashu, until Fan Jiashu and Shen Fengxi confirmed their love. From the tenth chapter to the end, it is narrated that Shen Fengxi was forcibly occupied by the warlords, and Xiugu's obsession with Fan Jiashu recurred, but in the end, she tried her best to match the marriage between Jiashu and He Lina. From this we can read the book, and the plot line of the whole book is based on the two iterations of a male and three female combinations.
The author portrays Fan Jiashu as his ideal character, repeatedly emphasizing that he is a civilian young master, with a bold nature, no concept of door and money, and no temper of brother Gongzi, so he has the favor and favor of three different women! Although Shen Fengxi was delicate and love vanity, he finally embarked on the road of madness. I believe that readers will be deeply impressed by Fengxi's weak and vain character and naïve and weak will after reading the original work!
Zhang Hexhui's romance novels do not use yellow vulgar copying, which is unique in the Mandarin Duck Butterfly School, which combines lingering love novels with tense and exciting martial arts novels, while drawing on new techniques of Western novels, thus successfully creating "Laughing Marriage".
Witty sayings: 1, the eyes are the same as love, there is not a grain of sand mixed in.
2, a person to correct a person's behavior, is more than a lover. If a person wants to change a person's behavior, it is better to love people.
3. A person's conscience can only be ignorant for a moment, and after a long time, it will slowly recall it.
