After reading "Withering Flowers" written by Zhang Ailing, I couldn't calm down for a long time.

The story mainly tells the love between Chuan Chang and doctor Zhang Yunfan, which ended when Chuan Chang contracted tuberculosis. Chuan Chang never bloomed proudly like a flower, but in a noisy big family, Bearing her joy and sorrow silently, like a shadow next to the passing life, until the inevitable death in the end.

Chuan Chang is a victim who was pushed into the abyss by a feudal family. The sadness of life comes not only from inescapable illness and death, but also from the indifference and selfishness of loved ones.

"Withering Flowers" is precisely in the interpenetrating scenes of daily life and the helplessness of death, expressing the depth of criticism of human nature and the feeling of the desolation of life. The patient takes the ideal care for life as the standard of value and criticizes the fact that love in reality has become a lie and a pretentious cruelty of survival.

This reminds me of two true stories.

Story 1

The younger brother of a fellow villager has a harmonious family with two children. I have just saved up my hard work to buy an apartment in the city, and am currently working from dawn to dusk to save money for decoration. His wife felt unwell and went to the hospital to be diagnosed with stomach cancer. Because her sister-in-law sells insurance, before she was diagnosed with gastric cancer, she bought an insurance policy worth 600,000 yuan out of dignity. I was diagnosed with gastric cancer one month after I bought the insurance, and I immediately withdrew the 600,000 yuan from the insurance for medical treatment. Fortunately, I had the money for medical treatment. Unfortunately, even after two years of treatment, the disease was not cured. He passed away, leaving behind two children and a husband. The renovation of the house in the urban area was delayed due to my wife's illness. Half a year later, my husband found a woman who was 8 years younger than him. The first thing to do after getting married is to renovate the house in the urban area. It is said that the bride does not want to live in the house where her ex-wife and husband once lived. The children are left with the grandparents, and the two live a newlywed life in the urban area. This example does not mean that after your wife passes away, you cannot find a new one. There is nothing wrong with finding a new one. The speed is too fast, as if you haven’t gotten over the sadness before starting the next round of happiness.

Story 2

Although my husband’s aunt was already in her fifties when I met her, she made me feel like Wang Xifeng in "A Dream of Red Mansions". The house is well managed. Not only is my uncle bald and his skin dark and rough, but he also has a good heart and likes to drink, smoke and gamble. When I first met him, I wondered why my aunt fell in love with my uncle. I asked my husband: How could my aunt, who was so beautiful when she was young, marry her ugly uncle? My husband said that at that time, my aunt's father died early and she had many brothers and sisters. She had to rely on her mother to raise so many children. Life was not easy. She didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. So my aunt's mother took care of her daughters one by one early. People are married. So my aunt got married at a young age. After marriage, her uncle liked to gamble. She could chase him and scold him, so much so that no one in the village dared to play cards with her uncle.

Under the care of my aunt, the family is getting better and better. A son and a daughter are both beautiful and handsome. A few years later, my daughter got married and gave birth to two grandchildren. The son also got married and gave birth to a daughter and a son one after another. The aunt in her fifties finally turned over and was about to enjoy happiness. She went to the hospital for a checkup because of abdominal pain. It was found that it was ovarian cancer. She went to the provincial hospital for a review and it was still ovarian cancer. The family was crushed, and the daughter burst into tears. She said she would treat her mother no matter what, so she stayed with her in the hospital every day to protect her most respected mother, the spiritual pillar of the family. But with advanced ovarian cancer, she passed away within three months. Now that the breadwinner of the family is gone, it should be said that the family has started their own families, and they just need to live a good life in their own small family.

But without the support of a prestigious person like my aunt, the family began to scatter.

My uncle found another woman less than three months after my aunt passed away. My daughter cried with tears and said that at the same time that she lost her mother, she also lost her father. She seemed to have lost her spiritual support. She sheds tears when she sees people. Where is the son? He is also looking for a woman outside, but the daughter-in-law can’t stand it. After the couple quarreled and fought, the daughter-in-law also looked for a man outside. Without the support of my aunt, this family becomes more and more disjointed and scattered. If her aunt was still the pillar of support, she would scold her son and her husband for failing to live up to expectations. This family should be complete. Now that her aunt has left, she never expected that the home she worked so hard to take care of would become like this. .

From the above examples, we can warn everyone that while people are still alive, take good care of your body, eat well, drink well, and have a good rest. Every member of the family must be strict in self-discipline and understand what should be done. , what not to do.

You must dedicate your love to this family at all times and do your best to maintain a complete and harmonious family.
