20 years ago, one of my essays, "The Artistic Conception of the Book Forest", was not abandoned by Mr. Xu Yan of the Research Center for Chinese Thinkers of Nanjing University, and was included in the "Reading Desk Pen Series" edited by him, which was published by Jiangsu Education Publishing House. Mr. Lu Dunji, a researcher at the Zhejiang Academy of Social Sciences, wrote a book review in the Qianjiang Evening News. The opening verse of Mr. Dunji's book review reads: "I have not been to Jiaxing for more than ten years, but I like jiaxing people more and more." They generally think that their hometown is the best and do not want to work outside. They live a generous life, have a graceful attitude, speak softly, in a word, somewhat aristocratic. "Dunji is a Jinhua Yongkang person, a bystander Jiaxing person, the so-called "bystander Qing" What is this?
However, Dunji is talking about the general situation of Jiaxing people, and there are also Jiaxing people who are more proud and less gentle. Reading Mr. Liu Bo's "Long Compilation of Mr. Zhao Wanli's Chronology", there are too many materials that can show the pride of Mr. Zhao Wanli, a Jiaxing person and a version cataloger--of course, Wanli has true learning, he has proud capital, and his pride is also the expression of his true disposition. Professor Lun Ming, who had taught The Northern Normal University and Peking University, wrote the Chronicle Poems of the Book Collection since xinhai, which had a verse of Wanli and noted: "Haining Zhao Feiyun is personally hot and quiet for a long time, and Fan Jing'an has many copies of the school book, and has repeatedly gone south to visit books for the library, and he has to build a pavilion to see what he has collected, and it is advisable to see no children." "Fei Yun, the word of Wanli." Saying that Wanli's learning is "suitable for the eyes to have no spare children", this is almost to support Wanli's "pride". Let's talk about a few stories from Mr. Wanli's youth—or to paraphrase the current Internet buzzword "green pepper"—.

Zhao Wanli and his wife in the 1930s.
In the summer of 1930, the 26-year-old Wanli was commissioned by the Beiping Library to visit Shanghai and Hangzhou to collect books. When he went to Shanghai to visit Mr. Liu Chenggan, the owner of JiayeTang, and discussed liu Chenggan's collection of books "Song Huijiao", but Mr. Liu Chenggan had already arrived in Hangzhou at this time, Wanli was very angry, and he and Xie Guozhen, a colleague of The Beiping Library, bitterly slandered Liu Chenggan for "putting up a sign", that is, putting up a shelf. Liu Chenggan is more than twenty years older than Wanli, and he is not in Shanghai, and he has not been able to receive him, which would have been understandable in reason, but Wanli is not spared. This incident also shows how high the self-esteem of "Green Pepper" Wanli was at that time. Hu Shi was the husband of Wanli's teacher generation, and he had become a great name at that time. Hu Shi's old Tibetan moraine sand collection "Da Pan Nirvana Sutra", volume 29 has Hu Shi's words of January 31, 1931, which says: "This volume is numbered 'Auxiliary Nine', which is incomprehensible. After the Two Song Dynasties, most of the engraved scriptures were numbered with the "Thousand Character Text", and the "Thousand Character Text" did not have the word "auxiliary", so Hu Shi thought that the number of this volume "Auxiliary Nine" was very incomprehensible. In the early summer of 1933, Wanli borrowed Mr. Hu Shi's book to come back to read, and wrote a poem behind Hu Shizhi, saying: "This book was published at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, and still follows the old style of the Song Dynasty's "Thousand Character Text". This volume is numbered 'Fu Jiu', and the word 'fu' is used to replace the word 'Kuang' to avoid the Song Taizu secret. The Sanxitang Fa Ti contains the Song Gaozong Imperial Book "Thousand Character Text", "Huan Gong Kuang He" as "auxiliary combination", which is also evident. Hu Shi thought it was inexplicable, and Wanli took the knife in his hand to cut off the doubt. Moreover, Mr. Hu Shi wrote this article on the volume without Mr. Hu Shi's consent to explain the doubts and doubts of Mr. Hu Shi. It can be seen that the heart of the "green pepper" is high and proud, and the eyes are empty and have no scruples. Fortunately, Mr. Hu Shi was already well-known at this time, had a good temperament, had grace, and was not angry.
Wanli was still a part-time lecturer at Peking University at that time, and his class was also "unobstructed", saying that dr. so-and-so also referred to the "Tongzhi" (because "Tongzhi" is an indirect historical material) to write lecture notes; and said that when so-and-so was studying abroad, he asked him to collect materials and make a doctoral dissertation. He also said: Scholars before Wang Guowei knew that seven or eight points said ten points twelve points, Mr. Wang Guo Wei knew that ten points twelve points said seven or eight points, and today scholars know one point and two points say ten points twenty points. The students who listened to Wanli's lectures could not help but worry, "His scolding of today's scholars can be said to leave no room, I don't know what kind of disgust today's scholars have?" "Students are justified in their fears, and some people are very unhappy." Zhu Ziqing's diary of June 12, 1933, wrote: "Fei Yun is still a lecturer in the History Department, but the authorities of Peking University do not have much respect for Qu Shu, and there is a way to help Furen. ...... Jiang Gongyi feiyun was too arrogant, and it was very beneficial to suffer setbacks from him. "Jiang Gong, that is, Pu Jiangqing, a native of Songjiang, is a classmate of Wanli Southeast University and an old friend of Wanli. Wanli was not welcomed by the Peking University authorities and wanted to teach at Fu Jen University. Pu Jiangqing said that Wanli was too proud, and it was good to suffer a little setback, and such words were not something that old friends could not say or say. This also shows that Wanli's pride is also famous among friends. Mr. Wanli was a Haining Yanguan, whose ancestor was a descendant of the Zhao clan of the Northern Song Dynasty. Haining, directly under zhejiang province after entering the Republic of China, came under the jurisdiction of Jiaxing after May 1949.
Coincidentally, Jiang Lihong, a native of Jiaxing who was born 10 years later, mr. Wanli is also quite proud and does not speak mercilessly. Mr. Jiang Lihong ruled ancient Chinese and Dunhuang studies. It is said that Mr. Ji Xianlin once came to Hangzhou to see Jiang Lihong at Hangzhou University, and Jiang said that he had written too little, and Mr. Ji said: Sima Qian is also a "Historical Record". This can explain Jiang Lihong's learning. Mr. Xue Ke, an ancient literature scholar, recently wrote "The Old Record of Hushan Sense", which recorded the story of Mr. Jiang Lihong, and saw his frankness. In the 1970s and 1980s, the "Dictionary of Hanyu Da" was compiled, and Mr. Jiang Lihong and teachers of the Chinese Department of Hangzhou University also participated in it. Once the Hangzhou University Writing Group held a meeting to report to the Provincial Writing Group, when the hangzhou University Writing Group leader said that the task was heavy and the manpower was small, Mr. Jiang Lihong suddenly spoke, in front of all the members of the Hangzhou University Group and the leaders of the Provincial Group, and said: "No. There were already seven or eight people in the Hangzhou University group, and there were not many of them. Sheng Jingxia (Lady Yuncong) can only teach poetry and let her write entries, what is the use! So-and-so (the wife of the department leader, shortly after graduating from college) also got a dictionary, jokes! "Yun Cong, Jiang Lihong's word." Sherk said that the people who were criticized were all present, "Who can get off the stage?" There was also a meeting of teachers of the whole department, Mr. Hu Shiying and Jiang Lihong sat around Sherk, Mr. Hu zhi script novels, operas, and the back of his ears, there was a "friend" word that he did not hear clearly, whispered to Xueke, And Xueke blurted out "'Hou who is in the house, Zhang Zhongxiaoyou's friend'." Mr. Jiang dragged Sherk a handful and blurted out: "I don't think he understands!" Sherk went on to write: "Jiang Gong's pride is often similar to this. Sherk added, "Jiang Gong's pride is well known to everyone." This Jiaxing man Jiang Lihong will really make people unable to come to the stage, where there is "grace in attitude, out of speech and relaxation." However, like Mr. Zhao Wanli, Mr. Jiang Lihong's pride still has his true knowledge as a hard backstage. The "pride" of not having real knowledge to do a hard background is also boring, almost "ignorant delusion". Mr. Jiang Lihong also paid the price for his frankness and angularity, and in the "unprecedented" era, Mr. Jiang commented on the wording of a book and was called "now anti". Fortunately, later, mr. Jiang ushered in rain and sunshine.
Although Jiang Lihong was proud, when he met someone who was really learned, he was very polite again. Wang Is also a well-known professor with knowledge and a colleague of Jiang Lihong. However, Jiang Lihong also had disrespectful remarks toward Mr. Wang At first, and later when Mr. Wang's "Selected Notes on Han Feizi" was published, Jiang Lihong praised several of his explanations, and Xueke said that Mr. Jiang "never said anything again." Once, When Xue Ke was reading Huang Yizhou's "Book of Rites" by The Qing Dynasty, Mr. Jiang Lihong knew about it, and Mr. Jiang poured a basin of cold water on his head: "What kind of books do you have to learn, I advise you not to read them." Xue Ke was not convinced in his heart, and told Mr. Ren Mingshan, "Ren Gong listened to the erection and even shouted 'How can this be the reason' and went away." "A few days later, Sherk met Mr. Jiang again," Mr. Jiang hurriedly apologized, repeatedly saying that he had not read the etiquette book, was lonely and unheard, and had been accused by Uncle Xin, and was very grateful. Ren Mingshan, the uncle of the character heart, studied the classics with the study of the phonology of words, and his knowledge was admired by Jiang Lihong. "Accused" by Uncle Ren Xin, Mr. Jiang did not say a word.
Zhao Wanli is also like this, when he encounters someone who is really learned, he is also humble and obedient, and he can put it off the shelf.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Mr. Wanli often wrote book reviews in the Tianjin "Ta Kung Pao Literary Supplement", and unceremoniously criticized the writings of Zhao Jingshen, Chen Yanjie, Tao Hongqing, Shen Qianyi, Zhou Qingyun, etc. involving the history of ancient literature, the annotation of ancient literary theory, the study of pre-Qin classics, bibliography, the expansion of ancient artifacts, and so on, but after reading the second volume of Gu Sui's 1928 typeset edition of "Wei Xin Ci", he was sincerely pleased, and wrote an article in the "Ta Kung Pao" with the "mirror" signed: "His words directly follow Jia Xuan, and also the style of Qi Qiao. Those who cannot and do not like to do it today are seen in Gu's family, and can also be described as 'extraordinary'. He also said, "Whoever my generation wants to say but cannot say so, Gu Shi can say it, without falsely piling up the color and luster." ...... True and tasteful, ancient and modern writers have not much to see except For Zhu Xizhen. Three-fold set, when I know that my words are not overflowing also. Wanli and Gu Sui did not know each other, and Gu then came to learn that the "mirror" was "Zhao Wanlijun of the Beiping Beihai Library", and sent another of his own "No Disease Words" to Wanli. Yang Shuda's "Memoirs of Ji Wei Weng" said that Wanli told him that Wanli borrowed Yang Shuda's book "The Golden Stone On the Jungle of Primary Schools" from Zhu Ziqing, and he was fascinated by reading on the car on the way home, and lost his money bag on the car without realizing it. This was also in April 1937.
Zhao Wanli and Mr. Chen Yuan were photographed on August 9, 1960 in front of the Wenjin Building of the Beijing Library.
Arrogance does not save face, and on the other hand, there is true learning, which has nothing to do with Jiaxing, but is a general rule of learning and sexual lovers. The famous Fu Fat zi Fu Sinian, the founder of the Institute of History and Language of the Academia Sinica, is also a high-minded, not very worthy of people, and when he was still studying at Peking University, he wrote articles questioning the knowledge of Mr. Ma Sulun of the teacher's generation. However, Wang Shumin, a graduate student brought out of Fu Sinian's own Institute of History and Philology, made a good paper, and the director Fu Sinian repeatedly chased after the preface to praise him, Wang Shumin did not agree five times, and Fu Sinian was not annoyed, and recommended it to the Commercial Press for publication. Fu Sinian is a native of Liaocheng, Shandong. It can be seen that there is no distinction between north and south, people do not ask questions about the west and east, and those who are really learned and really have temperament will have such a humble side that can put down their bodies.
Zhao Wanli Middle School graduated from Jiaxing No. 1 Middle School (then called Provincial No. 2 Middle School), while Jiang Lihong studied at Xiuzhou Middle School. The former was a public school, the latter was run by the church, and it was the two best middle schools in Jiaxing at that time. Dunji said how the people of Jiaxing are, which is generally true. But Dunji is talking about the "average" of the people in this place in Jiaxing. But people are really very different, and those who cross the "average" are also more or less. Therefore, I specially wrote about Zhao Wanli and Jiang Lihong, two Jiaxing readers, to show that there is a "difference" in addition to the "probably" of jiaxing people.
