After reading Ji Xianlin's prose collection "The Heart is a Lotus Blossom", I had the desire to continue reading it.
Ji Lao's articles are all about the people around him, but let people feel his knowledgeable, realistic attitude, great personality, whether he advocates or what he criticizes, in a subtle way to let you understand what should be adhered to and which should be eliminated.
Therefore, on the weekend, he came to the library to look for Ji Lao's works, hoping to read Ji Lao's works again, study and understand again, and truly understand the spirit of Ji Lao.
The library in late autumn, under the background of the ginkgo tree with the "yellow robe" body, shows its charm even more, attracting many readers to stop, some take photos, some lament the beauty of the ginkgo tree, and some carry books into the library like me to return books and borrow books.
The three middle-aged and elderly people who walked in front of me each carried a bag of books and walked hurriedly, the pace was faster than me, lighter than me, and the desire for books was vividly reflected.
After scanning the code to make an appointment, taking the temperature and showing the health code, you will enter the library. After entering the library, you can first return the books you borrowed last time before you can borrow them. After returning the book, go directly to the scattered book cabinet area on the second floor, and there are not many bookcases in the prose area, only five rows. Because of the lack of modern technical search, you can only find the books you want in the prose area, layer by layer.
Maybe Ji Lao's fame is too great, his works are too good, and it is difficult to find his collection of essays from the bookcase. Looking up the top floor of the bookcase requires standing, while finding the lower level of the bookcase requires bending over or squatting. In this way, they let their trajectory form a regular curve, which is based on the body as a pen, moving forward with the force of footsteps, up and down with the movement of the eyes, and occasionally need to reach out to make a mark (look closely at the author's name).
Kung Fu paid off, checked the entire prose area, and only found two old prose collections of "Mo AskIng His Hometown and Hometown" and "Ji Xianlin Prose". In the prose area, there are many collections of essays by other famous artists, which can be seen everywhere. Today I just want to talk to Ji Lao, other famous artists are not in the plan, I can only find them next time, so I finished the borrowing procedure and then looked for it on the third floor.
The third floor is a book based on history, the last time "The Story of Mo Yan" was found on the third floor, today I also want to try my luck on the third floor. Just as I was looking at the undulating curve, a middle-aged woman wanted to pass by me, between the narrow bookcases, only through the two people standing on their sides.
I stood up and let her pass, and she stopped right in front of me to look for the bookcase, and took a step backwards to put the book I had read back in place. After the middle-aged woman left, I carefully looked at the title of the book she put back in its original place, and I couldn't help but be surprised and excited, isn't this the book I just returned? The title of the book that the sister-in-law put back in place was "The Story of Mo Yan", which was exactly the last book I borrowed, and I thought to myself, it seems that there are still many people who like Mo Yan's works, although there are many people who talk nonsense, but for the pursuit of literature, only the benevolent can see the benevolent and the wise see the wise.
Perhaps influenced by this surprise, in the opposite bookcase area I found three works about Ji Lao, one is the book of Ji Lao's son, "My Father Ji Xianlin and Me", and two are the first and second volumes of "The Complete Biography of Ji Xianlin".
It seems that these are worth the trip, and I will have a good talk with Ji Lao after I go back. As the preface to the Complete Biography of Ji Xianlin says: "It is important for us to learn and master knowledge, and it is more important to master the method of learning knowledge; it is very important for us to inherit Mr. Ji's knowledge, and it is more important to inherit Mr. Ji's spirit." ”
