An old man named Fugui said to an old cow named Fugui: This year, Youqing and Erxi have cultivated one acre of land, Jiazhen and Fengxia also have seven or eight fields, and the bitterroots are still half an acre, and you Fugui, when you are old, can cultivate such fields is already very good.
When I read this, the tears still stayed, Blaming myself for not arguing, and a big man was often moved to tears, perhaps retaining that kindness in his heart. It took two nights to read Yu Hua's "Alive", the first time I read the title of the book "Alive", I thought that the people in the book could live happily, who knew that Yu Hua's style has always given the reader that compassion, just like Yu Hua himself said: I clearly feel the division of the self, I can not make myself pure.
Xu Fugui - the young master of the landlord's family, the family has a hundred acres of good land, fun, marrying a wife and family treasure, getting a gentle and kind and virtuous woman's Fugui, can not change his second-rate character, after all, in that era, to be able to eat is content, but Fugui is not the same, the family has money, does not do the right thing, like to go to the city to visit the kiln, this is still content, and infected with gambling addiction, although the name Fugui, but every time gambling is lost, unfortunately, later a dragon second (old thousand hands) a sophistry Xu family all the property. Xu Father is also a straight man, selling all the property in the seller to Fugui to pay off the debt (persuade the jun mo dye gambling, otherwise the family property will lose), this time when the hut fell into the pit and drowned, Fugui only repented at this time, but now he can only take his mother, wife, and children to move out of the ancestral house and live in the thatched house, people, after all, to live.
Jia Zhen - the daughter of the boss of the rice shop, Fugui took the luck to get such a dignified wife, and gave birth to a daughter and a son for Fugui, which made up a good word. Fugui's family was in a bad situation, and there was not even rice under the pot, fortunately, his father-in-law could support a little, and Long Er was also a "good person", giving Fugui's family some land, and the days finally went on. Fugui's mother was ill, Fugui went to the city to buy medicine, but he did not know that he was captured by the White Army, and in those years on the battlefield, Fugui's only wish was to live and live. After being fortunate enough to be repatriated by the Red Army soldiers, Fugui returned home, her mother had died of illness, Fengxia had been deaf and mute, but fortunately, Youqing grew up, and Jiazhen was exhausted because she supported this dilapidated family alone, and then died of hypochondriasis.
There is a qing - Fugui son, the young man is not simple, just like Fugui himself said: you have not enjoyed a good day, he likes to run, but he is reluctant to wear shoes, when I read here, I thought of the Iranian movie "Little Shoes", which is also a tear-jerking film, interested friends can watch. Yes, Youqing went to school barefoot, running and running, unconsciously he had gone to elementary school, suddenly so one day, the principal gave birth to a child bleeding heavily, need to donate blood, every classmate hopes that they can contribute to the principal, Youqing is no exception, but so many people, but there is a Qing blood type matching success, just such a child to the adult blood donation, alive was drained of blood, Youqing also left.
Fengxia - Fugui's daughter, a very good child, after all, she has experienced from existence to nothing, from rich to poor, but she still maintains that childlike heart, no dispute, no quarrel, but once she made trouble, because the family really could not open the pot, Fugui and his wife sent Fengxia away, even if they could not hear it, but their hearts were like spiegels, this moment she called, because she did not want to leave this home. However, Fengxia was still taken away and given to a stranger by Fugui, and later fortunately, Fengxia returned, and at that moment Fugui felt that no matter how bitter it was, she could not send Fengxia away. After Fengxia grew up, Fugui wanted to find her an in-law family, and looked around and found Wan Erxi, the two were still sweet, and soon after they were pregnant with a child. On the day of Fengxia's delivery, because of heavy bleeding, Fengxia left, and the bitterroot came.
Erxi, Fugui's son-in-law, is a partial head and a porter in the city. After Fengxia's death, Erxi lived with her newborn doll Bitterroot, both as a father and a mother, and as a good son-in-law. When Bitterroot was four years old, Erxi died again, caught between two rows of cement slabs, and only shouted once when he left: Bitterroot.
Bitterroot - Fugui's grandson, when I read this, there are still a few pages left in this book, I thought bitter root and Fugui two old and one young to survive well, because they both have a wish, buy a cow, live a good life, who knows bitter root because of illness want to eat, eat beans to die, not because of hunger, is too poor, eat beans are very rare once.
In fact, there are several characters in this book, such as Ryuji, because the landlord was shot, and Chunsheng (the principal's husband, Fugui's comrade-in-arms) hanged himself because he could not stand the criticism of the Red Guards. In the end, only Fugui and the cow named Fugui were left alive. As Fugui sang: teenagers go wandering, middle-aged people want to dig up, and old people become monks. The first feeling I had after reading this book was that Fugui had experienced a lifetime of suffering, his family had gone before him, and he still treated the world kindly, did not have a word of complaint, and lived strongly.
