Many people have such a view: an article or novel, if put in the textbook, few people ask, if it is placed in extracurricular books or famous anthologies, the body size will immediately rise, just like the same building, placed in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou is worth a hundred times. I remember a philosopher who said that life is different, he compares people to peach blossoms, the south wind is gentle, the flowers are falling, or falling into the ditch, or floating into the arms of beauty, or falling in the dirt. Peach blossoms are similar, and the destination is very different. Reading books is only the pursuit of the content of the book, absorbing the knowledge inside, drawing on the experience or lessons inside, and learning the life experience of the benevolent people. If you are pursuing external decoration and looking at it very seriously, then it is a bit of a taste of abandonment.
I remember one of my classmates, mixed very well, in a small town to operate building materials, the annual income is also millions, drive a car of hundreds of thousands, live in a three-story villa, the small life is very moist, is the best among our classmates. Every time I had a dinner, I rushed to pay the bill, and the banquet was also talking about how much I loved to read. Once, the eldest of my colleague and classmate went to a small town to study, and slaughtered him as a successful person. After eating, I went to his house to play, drank tea in the study, chatted and talked, and listened to his big talk about business. Although he and I are classmates, we are not very familiar with each other, we have been together for four years, we just meet and greet each other, and we can't talk about any friendship. However, the boss is an outfielder, has made a lot of friends, and has a good relationship with this classmate. I just take it with a little light. Listening to the two of them talking with a red face, I only had to eat tea. There were many books in the students' study, neatly arranged, and the sizes were staggered. Seeing "Dream of the Red Chamber" commented by Li Yanzhai, I couldn't help but take it and want to see it. I didn't expect it to be so light in my hand. I want to open it but I can't do it. Seeing me like this, which classmate laughed. "That's my decoration book, fake. Busy with business all day, where is the time to study! The boss said, "Dude, it is really lost in literature, and it is gained from building materials!" "I learned from that time that there was such a thing, and my eyes were wide open. Such a reading, such a high-end thing is actually for the sake of vassalage. Perhaps, all walks of life are a book, and the business experience of friends building materials is not a good book and insights? Why do you need these high-end boxes to decorate the façade, I'm afraid it's a bit of a ye gong good dragon flavor.
There are also some bibliophiles who know a lot of collecting skills, and also know the content of books and the value of different versions of books, in their eyes, books are not only a way to obtain knowledge, but also a commodity of how much to make, something to be sold at a price. Appreciation is just a side item. These people are beyond reproach, just like the flowers of the garden, but they have different forms and different colors, but they are all creators of beauty, and they are all different landscapes.
Most of my books are not of high value, but they all have many stories, and they are all beautiful testimonies of my past life, whether I am happy or sad. For example, the "Xinhua Dictionary" was bought when I was in middle school, although it was less than ten yuan, but it was still my father who hesitated and wandered for several days. I remember my father's eyes full of anticipation when he put it in my hand, as if he were holding a newborn baby. "Study hard, kid." Then he slowly turned around and left my little room. That kind of scene has always been accompanied to this day, although a classmate in high school wanted to replace his "Modern Chinese Dictionary" with me, I did not agree, how could he know the origin of this dictionary? There is also a copy of "History", a paperback edition published by the Zhongzhou Ancient Books Publishing House, and the thick one is full of words without any explanation. It was saved by me for more than a month, and I bought it at the Sanwei Bookstore opposite the school, which cost fifteen yuan. After buying it, I read it after class, and picked up my favorite characters to read half-unripely, what Wei Gongzi, Wu Zixu, Wei Qing, Huo Wentai, Li Guang, and so on. Hide in the bed of the large dormitory, under the yellowish electric light. The dormitory beds of more than a hundred people were welded together, and one person was more than ninety centimeters wide. It was so windy and howling outside, and my classmates and I huddled together to read. Everyone loves it, looks at it, and it is still well preserved when I graduate. Now, the years have made its paper yellow, the lock line has been opened, and it has begun to spread a little. I put it in order to "put it on the shelf" as a souvenir. Later, I bought a set of hardcover Shanghai ancient books, bound tall, but not as happy as in the past. A set of mao selection was given by my uncle because the history teacher said that reading it was good for learning.
There are many books in the collection, most of which are not valuable, and they cannot enter the eyes of the masters of the collection, but are the traces of family affection, love, and the past in them measurable by money?
