I have always been a person who doesn't like reading very much. I do not have a good reading habit. I can't make a professional book that needs serious study. Let's take a look at some books I'm interested in first. When I browsed the reading software and chose what books I wanted to read, the book "How nice it is to be alive" caught my eye. At first, I thought it would be some books about life, but when I really finished reading this book, I found that I was wrong. "How nice it is to be alive" is a famous saying of Wang Lao, which represents his attitude towards life and literary pursuit. Wang Lao's prose is famous for writing delicious food. Nowadays, people are licking their mouths and eager to try. They write about the trivia of life and people around them. They are humorous and optimistic, which makes people laugh, as if everyone is cute and everything can be pondered. Life is really bitter, but he adds a layer of sugar to life and looks for fun and beauty in peacetime.
As long as you open the book catalogue, you can see that the whole book is divided into four chapters. The first chapter makes me feel novel. All the flowers, birds, insects and fish I know or have never heard of are so beautiful and distinctive in Wang Zengqi's works. Every flower and fish in his works is spiritual. Although I didn't have the experience of enjoying flowers and catching insects in my garden when I was a child, we can feel the beauty and fun of the natural world through the author's perspective in the book.
? The second chapter is my favorite spring and autumn period. This chapter describes some characters, some of whom don't even know their names. When writing about Mr. Hao, I wrote that he was the principal of a drama school, holding a manuscript written for him by his secretary in his hand. When he was passionate, he raised his lecture in one hand and pointed at it in the other, saying, "Students! How right he is! " This is really an unreachable place for Hao Lao: being honest and not putting on a show. I also write about people at the bottom, but these people at the bottom are particularly touching, whether they are honest Jin Dali, Dr. Wang, who loves fishing with the same name, an empty waiter with a dull tone, an aunt in the corridor, a child playing in the sewer, and Aunt Xue, who sells vegetables. Some of them have a hard life, some are kind and simple, and some are lively. No matter how difficult the present situation is, we should stick to it and always be kind and sincere.
The third chapter is some article comments or some experiences and opinions from ancient times to the present. The fourth chapter is the most interesting food. Wang Lao's description of food is not fabricated or carried out out out of thin air in some books, but really comes from the personal evaluation of the foodie. Tofu, radish, mushrooms, salted duck eggs, mutton and other common foods have so many ways to eat in different places that people can't help but want to try them. Wang Lao's writing style is plain and simple, even simple ingredients can be written in a variety of ways. A food is introduced from its historical origin and geographical factors. His book not only introduces delicious food, but also brings its own recipes, which makes people salivate and eager to try. Wang's cold spinach, boiled dried silk, hot pot fritters with stuffing and other delicious foods can be cooked at home. Between his lines, there is a fiery breath of life everywhere. People feel that there are too many beautiful things in the world to miss and too many delicious foods to taste.
Wang Lao said in the book: "A person's tastes should be broader and more diverse. Taste everything sweet in the south, salty in the north, spicy in the east and sour in the west. This is true for food and should be true for culture. " This sentence is very thoughtful and philosophical. An ordinary ingredient can be made into thousands of ways and taste many different flavors. This requires not only a pair of skillful hands that can turn decay into magic, but also a delicate and tolerant heart. Life is never smooth sailing. There are too many disappointments in this world, but life goes on. After the constant tempering of life, we should still love life and laugh at all kinds of hardships in life. What's more, life is not satisfactory. You see, as long as we pay attention, we can also see the wonderful and lovely birds, animals, insects, fish, flowers and trees written by Wang Lao, discover the interest in ordinary life, recall the warm old days and taste the special food in all directions. As long as we are alive, there will always be a sunny day. Our ordinary life is the best proof of how good it is to be alive.
